Daddy Issues

Mostly the same. My current (and first!) ATF is closer to her dad than her mom, but she's the only dancer I've ever heard that from.

I concur with george, a lot of them had fucked up childhoods. Same thing with my ATF, last time I saw her at the club, she was all dolled up for a charity gig where she was helping her dad raise money for cancer research.

phoebe, While what you say is true, I don't think anyone was suggesting that strippers were the only ones who have this issue, only that the observed incidence is higher among strippers, and only with regard to the presence and/or importance of her mother, as opposed to her father, in her life.

For the most part strippers have screwed up childhoods or come from single parent families, often being raised by their grandparents bc mom had a dope problem, was a stripper, hooker, or both. In many instances their Dad might be somoeone like a SC DJ who banged a lotta gals getting many of them knocked up. Usually he is absent from the scene until probably resurfacing in their teens.

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.

Yep, there's a lot of strippers who have no idea where their kid's dad is.

Yes close to 100% have something odd going on with their father (didn't get along with him, he wasn't there, died early on, step father, molested her, etc.). The ones who had a normal relationship don't end up stripping for long.

One of my ex faves dad dropped her at the strip club when she turned 18 and didn't have a job. One of my fave sisters was closer to her dad even though he was a ROB. He stole money from her right and left. The other sister was closer to her mom who was living with her up until a couple of weeks ago when the mom hit one of the faves kids and the fave had the mom hauled off to jail. The mom was also a ROB.
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.

I mean they don't grade fathers or nothing but if your daughter is a stripper, you fucked up...a father's one goal in life is to keep their daughter off the pole

I wouldn't know how many strippers have daddy issues, because I don't talk to them about that, but it seems reasonable the vast majority does.

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

I was the "father" for my ATF.

You know I mentioned "what are your plans for father's day" to a stripper this week and she did not even know it was father's day coming up

Dancers are dancers because:

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.

I was tempted to say something like "whose your daddy?" this weekend while spanking her ass as I was getting a lap dance lol

ilb: Not buying that explanation. If it were true, you would expect any girl a) tough enough, b)desiring a high income (relative to her skills and age), and c) desiring flexible hours to become a dancer. Heck, that is probably the vast majority of girls before they hit their late 20's. Yet very few are dancers. Strippers will give you some very simplistic reasons why they dance, but it's our job to not believe anything they say.

Fuck yeah I the king daddy
