I've always thought a true, members only strip club would be of interest, but after many years in many cities, I've never found one. Has anyone ever found such a club ?
The one aboveboard place that is a true members only place I know about is Paradise Saloon in, or more accurately, near Lawrence, Kansas. I thought there was a couple of other places in Kansas which were true members only places, where you can't just buy a membership and then they'll let you in.
Kansas has some weird liquor laws. First of all, it's legally dry, but each county can choose to allow liquor sales based on some sort of referendum voting. I believe that certain counties in Kansas allow for private drinking clubs (and private strip clubs).
Diamonds in Miamisburg (SE of Dayton) is a members only club. Anyone can join and has the same rules as other clubs only it is nude and byob. Plus the girls are better looking. Desire in Providence has a private club upstairs but I have never gone up or joined.
Club Desires in providence has a second floor which is a members only section called Club Lust. Small intimate bar; dancers need to be invited; far more mellow and private; bigger more private cr's; exceptional food.
Neither Flamingoes [Lawrence] or Tropicana [Scranton] are private but both allow full stage nudity and nude VIP [Trop] as well as selling booze. Supposedly both existed before county regulations over SCs came into existence. Grandfathered in as exceptions.
In fact, the Trop boasts that it has been operating nearly continuously as a gentlemen's club since the early 1950s.
I'm a member of one. No big deal. They just had a waiting period before approving membership. I believe almost all the clubs I went to in NC required membership or asking someone if they would let you in as a guest the last time I visited any club in NC.
I'd like to see private clubs with this system: You submit an application with a current face shot. Your picture and first name are passed around to the dancers to make sure you're nobody's dad or anything. You're then invited to a meet and greet. They you decide if you want to join. The club has a website, where after entering your member login, you can look a schedules, send message and ask dancers if they can work a certain shift etc. Would be less hit-or-miss for all involved and provide more anonimity.

Apparently, I know the wrong people.

I was a member of one many, many yrs ago.
Think you're right about connex to liquor laws. Paradise, as a private club, serves booze and allows both full stage nudity and smoking.

BTW, read your post under 'Holding off Ejaculation'. First thought [honestly]: From little acorns..........
