Ever encountered this scenario

Yeah, and usually they are either with their husband/boyfriend or are firmly a lesbian (either way they have no interest in you).

Yes I have, lots of hot girls go to my local club, usuly as a group date.

No, never. I've never met a civilian girl anywhere who was hotter than even the plainest stripper. Strippers are by far the hottest girls on the entire planet.

One time there was a table full of girls at a club I was in. All in their 20's and 8's, 9's, and 10's. No guys with them either. So I sit down at the table with them to see what's going on. They tell me they are escorts. Ok, haha! Then they were trying to get me to buy them dances (no alcohol in Seattle clubs)...

When I was on my road trip a couple of years ago I noticed that New Mexico clubs generally have a large number of female customers in them. More than anywhere else I've been.

I can't recall ever, in my many years of clubbing, seeing a single female in a strip club. Rarely you might see a couple, where the guy somehow managed to convince his GF it would be fun to go see strippers.

Of course, I don't hang out at the higher end clubs, nor do I go at night, so maybe I'm missing it.

I see that all the time, particularly at my #3 club, but they are always with their husband/boyfriend, so there is no chance at getting them. Sometimes, there's several couples all in one group and that just really annoys me on a personal level.
