Deaf dancer

There is a deaf dancer at Dollie's Playhouse in Washington Park, IL. At this club I suspect you can come in, on, or across her for a reasonable price :)

What?

Many years ago I ran a program for deaf/hearing impaired adolescents. Lip reading is imprecise at best. Finger spelling and signing are much more precise.fricatives and analogies are especially difficult. Ask her if she ever uses fricatives.

There is one working in Portland. She was at Golden Dragon for a long time but I haven't seen her in a few months.

Guess you'd never have to worry about song counts during lap dances

"fricatives..."

HAHAHA !! He said "fricatives"....

I'm telling....

Yes I did a few years ago. She was fine as hell but communicating with her in a noisy busy club was difficult. Her lip reading skills were questionable (tho she read my lower lips just fine) and my sign language was terrible. We wound up writing notes on cocktail napkins back and forth all night long. Fortunately verbal communication wasn't an issue when we were in the VIP room.

She only stayed in LA a short time and moved back to Florida in 2010. I think about her sometimes and wonder what became of her.

I met one once at one of the clubs in Lincoln, Nebraska a few years ago. As if she wasn't odd enough by being deaf, she had one of the scariest hairstyles ever in a stripper. It was almost like she had a mullet. If she didn't have big tits, I can't possibly begin to imagine anyone thinking she was sexy.

About 6 years ago, in an "off island" club near Montreal, I met a friendly young dancer who said she was "mostly" deaf. She explained (in surprisingly clear English) that she had implants that allowed her to hear a little (she used the drum beat of the song that was playing as an example) but could not really hear voices in a crowd. She was fluent in sign language (I am not) and skilled at lip reading. As previously mentioned - lip reading is imprecise and involves (according to this dancer) a lot of guesswork.

I got most of this info from her while we were sitting outside smoking (smoking was allowed inside but many of the dancers chose to smoke home rolled "cigarettes" on a private deck out back.) She did say that it was easier to "read" lips when she also got clues from voice sounds or the vibration from the speaker's mouth. That was her excuse for spending most of the time we were talking straddling my lap with one hand on my cheek. Her other hand was also busy. She had me holding the "cigarette" so she could keep my attention during our conversation.

used to be two at the club i frequent

If you hang out long enough at a Platinum Plus club, everybody acts deaf.

I wonder if she ever laughed at Def Comedy Jam?

I"m guessing the hand signals for FS, BJ and HJ aren't too difficult to read for anyone!

Personally, I'd prefer a MUTE dancer to a deaf one!
