Hey folks, I told you so. This is why I went into such detail about the issues at stake in an earlier thread about Legal Restrictions:
tuscl.net
This is also why I have talked so much about the machinations of Clip Joints, and why it is instead important to get to physical friendliness with you girl before going to any booths or back rooms.
What it comes down to are unconstitutional local ordinances, things which violate the 1st Amendment, and then un-jury tested interpretations of things like PC-647(B).
It is a really sorry state of affairs.
This is also one of the reasons why some people set up a string of Table Dancing or "Bikini Show" in some Mexican Bars in San Jose and Gilroy. There were trying to full an extreme vacuum. And all of them have had serious trouble with the Santa Clara County DA as a result of this.
In San Jose there is AJ's. This is just a bar. It is on one of my favorite bicycle routes, so I've passed it hundreds of times, and I've seen there dancers out in front. It is just for a few hours a couple of nights of the week. Bikini, strict no touching.
There used to be another AJ's, maybe in Fremont.
This was probably the inspiration for the underground Table Dancing circuit.
So it is bleak. Just a few clubs in Santa Clara County, all strictly no touching. Nothing in Contra Costa County. Oakland used to have 3 or 4 clubs listed on TUSCL. But they are gone now. They were probably just bars, and the dancers were probably street hookers.
Used to be two in San Mateo County, but the city got the building torn down for club ante. So now it is just the Hanky Panky. Officially no touching and topless. But that has always been a Mexican place and known for dancers who do OTC.
Then it is San Francisco. Other than that, unless there is still some of this underground Bikini Show circuit going, then you would have to go to Sacramento or Stockton or Fresno, or the SR's in Santa Maria and Santa Barbara, or two the one club in Eureka.
Oakland does have a couple of "Adult Entertainment" or "Lingerie Modeling" places.
Yesterday, being a holiday, I did window shop 21 San Jose AMPS. There are 10 within 3 blocks of where Hwy 17 crosses Stevens Creek. Many of those I looked in on are not even listed on Rub Maps. But I believe at all the ones I looked in on, FS can be had. I say this just because of how the girls talked to me. All but two were Vietnamese. The other two were in City of Santa Clara and they were Chinese.
Most of those I looked at do not come up with the most extreme searches one could do on Rub Maps either. This confirms my hypothesis that Rub Maps is an underrating, because the guys who really get along with the girls are not writing about them. I am not comfortable with so much being said for places that the cops can just walk into either.
There was one woman who is very highly rated. I window shopped her place twice. She is always busy and even at a retail biz where I asked directions, they knew about her. It sounds like she really does do escort style sessions. So 60min is 60min and she is right there GFEing you the whole time.
In San Francisco the places are even more extreme and they maintain zero plausible deniability. The women may often be younger as they will have a trans-Pacific supply line. These will mostly be Korean. Whereas in San Jose it is mostly US Resident Vietnamese. They are older, but also more Americanized and more like ordinary people.
The reason MBOT got started was the Jim and Artie would never deal. They were busted and taken downtown and booked over 100 times. Each time this happened, they went harder core the next day. They would not let the DA be the one to make the interpretation. It had to be a jury. Very few people are willing to do this and face a risk of doing serious time. Very few are willing and able to pay for expert legal council either.
So I hope people will read my posts on the legal restrictions thread, the one so many were upset with. And I hope people will read Bottom Feeders, by an S.F. Chronicle writer, John Hubner.
I hope JS69, that you will post about your S.F. experiences too. Tell us what you actually did do and how it went.
All this having been said, I feel that if you want to meet an eclectic bohemian girl with radical politics, then the first place to look would be S. F. Crazy Horse, followed by MBOT, and then by all of the other S.F. clubs. Just don't go there looking for the ITC experience. Go there to meet your next girlfriend, and be willing to shell out some money and play along with a clip joint set up, just to flatter her and to get the chance to talk with her.
