Daddy Issues
I wonder how many strippers will be celebrating Father's Day this weekend? I know it's a cliche, but of the handful of dancers I've gotten to know well, all were close to their Moms, while their Dads were out of the picture for one reason or another.

When I am seeing a stripper, it bothers me to see her more excited about dope than seeing her kids which usually live with their father or grandparents (who has custody).
The Stripper I am currently seeing was raised mainly by her grandparents. Her mother was impregnated by a SC DJ while a young stripper.
I agree that many of them had fucked up childhoods and that a greater percentage compared to the general population suffered through it. I'm no psychologist but believe many of them are still looking for acceptance from their fathers. That's why so many of us old farts have such good luck establishing "long term relationships" with them.

Now she talks about her ex nonstop, but I don't mind
But when she calls out his name in bed
That's where I draw the line
You told me a hundred times how your father left and he's gone
But I wish you wouldn't call me daddy
When we're gettin' it on
And I said yeah, yeah
Oh man she's got issues
And I'm gonna pay
Offspring - She's got issues
1. They are tough enough to deal with all the shit that goes with being a dancer, and
2. They can get enough of a higher income from dancing that it's worth putting up with all the shit that goes with being a dancer, and (in some cases),
3. They want a job with flexible hours and/or tolerance for addictions.
Some dancers learn to be tough dealing with daddy issues or other family problems, but that's the only relationship I see.
