Strip Club Therapy?

Topic came up recently at the club when a dancer said I looked a little down.

Her: I think you need some therapy. Lucky for you I was a psych major. So what school do you prefer? Freud? Jung? Adler?
Me: Maybe the Marvin Gaye school?
Her: (laughing) “Sexual healing? Ok, come on,” (taking me by the hand) “let’s get you on the couch.”

By the end of the night, I was feeling much better. In the end, I think I had a “breakthrough” of sorts. The total cost for the evening was probably half the going rate for an hour of therapy, so I think I agree on both counts.

Well I can tell you this.......it sure cure my aches!!!!!

The clubs, not so much. The proper dancer, without a doubt!

clubber: amen, brother.

Bingo Clubber!

Hell yes to dancers with a kind ear and soft breasts to lay my tired head on.

“Strip clubs can be therapeutic sometimes.” – Samsung1

Have to agree. Actually, it's like a shot of cortizone, it will get you through 7 to 10 days.

“It is cheaper than therapy and just as effective.” – nomadic1

Have to disagree. Seven years of abuse at the hands of my mother's boyfriend + eleven years of military (most of it spec ops) + five years of gang task force = one really angry violent guy. Seven years of therapy and couseling (most of it church funded) made me able to talk to people without trying to goad them into something violent.

I don't think a stripper would've listened to my reasons for being violent, finding the causes, and dealing with it.

Like I said, a stripper is a quick fix, but eventually the dose wears off.

if sex is therapy then yes massage places are too

It isn't therapy but SC hobby is taking the edge off the unrelenting boredom of my retirement.

Never mind the spa -- some stars prefer stripper therapy

The best year to witness bad-boy behavior by visiting stars at the festival was probably 2002, when a pre-rehab Colin Farrell was in town promoting Phone Booth and a pre-comeback Mickey Rourke was sleazing about town while pushing Spun. Strip clubs in Hogtown, as Toronto is so sweetly nicknamed, never had it so good.

But in recent years as money business has taken priority over funny business at the festival, publicists have dedicated themselves to making sure their client's film comes first in the headlines and any bawdy activity is kept discreetly hidden.

Yet Toronto Life reports that many celebs continue to treat themselves to a lap dance or four while in town each September. According to the Adult Entertainment Association of Canada, such establishments see sales rises 20% when the Hollywood elite takes its annual trek up north. The magazine says stars spotted socializing at Four Your Eyes Only on King Street in the past include Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson and Queen Latifah. -- Susan Wloszczyna
