Help… LEO vibe
Wednesday, December 15, 2010 1:09 PM
Last night I was asked several times by a dancer, “are you a cop?†Despite many reassurances, I got the feeling the dancer was always holding back a little. Despite a very energetic, mutually participating set of dances, she still asked if I were Uncle LEO. The last few times I've been to a club I noticed that the dancers are a little ‘stand-offish'. Could I be giving off a LEO vibe that the dancers are afraid of?
I am not a regular because I don't go often. Clubs where I live can only give air dances, which I hate, so I only go when I am on the road. I can't fix that. I am a 40ish, white male, who is in decent shape, which I cant change either. I keep my hair shorter, former military, and I am usually very polite (military and midwestern upbringing). I usually wear loose soft shorts/sweat bottoms (easier access, plus jeans rub the dancer and me a little raw). I brush my teeth and take a shower prior so I don't smell. My posture is usually pretty good due to prior military and the fact I exercise daily.
I can see where my appearance might make someone think that I am LEO, even though most cops I've seen carry quite a bit more around the mid section. I do tell people I am not LEO, especially a dancer who I would prefer to be more open with. It doesn't seem to work as well as I would like. I want the dancer to feel like she can be open with me without fear of getting in trouble.
What can I do or say or wear that clues people that I am not LEO? A catch phrase that clearly sends a message that I can't be a cop. I don't ever tell a dancer the ‘truth' about who I am/what I do because it is none of their business (besides they always are honest…. 2nd year nursing students who are stripping for book-money). I do tell a version of the truth to avoid sounding like I am totally making shit up. Should I go wild and tell them I am a heart surgeon or special forces? Or would that make the dancer feel they can milk more $ out of me because I am a “rich doctorâ€. Should I be ruder? Spike my hair, what is left that is. Outside of dropping my pants, which could just as easily end me up in jail, or at the least get me escorted out the door by a bouncer who is bigger than me looking for an excuse to clobber someone anyway. Could I show them my wallet so they could see my ID and no badge? I don't mind being frisked especially by a cute dancer.
OR is this just part of "the dance� The one between customer and dancer, like trying to feel out if a dancer will give a good contact dance or just stand there and shake and wiggle. I know there is concerns for the girls, how do I make them feel they are safe with me? Any ideas/techniques would be appreciated.
Got something to say?
