There are about 400,000 strippers working in the US.
I was thinking there wouldn't be that many if most hated their job.

Based on the number of C section scars I see, #3 seems low.
I figure stripper job satisfaction is around teacher or cop level.
that's funny. I was having this fling with a stripper and took her to Vegas. My friends were with me who were also some female friends one of which is incredibly hot. My stripper tried to convince this girl the entire weekend to quit her job and take up stripping. Stripper had no clue this girl had her masters and had a very good job, but a lot of strippers can't understand math like that..and she was one of them
Brilliant! I say stripper and hooker are both way more legit than life coach! ;)
"13.5 percent have kids"
May be true for Las Vegas, New York, LA, and Florida where young single women travel or move there -- but in the dreary Midwest towns like Flint, Saginaw, or Kalamazoo, Michigan or Kokomo, Indiana, the percentage with kids has to be approaching 90 percent or more. They are single moms with no job skills that dance as a means to an end.
That's interesting about kids, and I think motorheads theory is spot on. of the last 8 strippers I hung out with in detroit, 5 had kids. The 3 that didn't ages ranged from 19 to 30. When I used to club in Toronto a lot, I seldom met one with a kid. I'm trying to jog my memory and I'm thinking only 2 of the last 10 I had interactions with in Toronto.
I'm thinking like Motorhead and I imagine a hot stripper with big fake boobs in ft lauderdale trying to get some whale to marry her... she wouldn't have any kids as this is her life plan... Flip to a city like cleveland where a young decent looking girl has a child(ren) and no baby daddy, getting into stripping as one of the limited options she has for income.
In that statisticbrain link, it says the average yearly earnings for a stripper is $125,000. That is complete bullshit. Maybe the 10's are making $125,000, but I would say the average yearly earnings for a stripper would probably be around $50,000.
Motorhead speaks the truth about stripper moms.
But let's face it, most dancers don't do 5 day, 45 hour work weeks. Especially girls who don't "need" the money. So yeah, I bet 50 to 60k a year is more reasonable, more for extras girls.
I'm not quite saying that your stripper friend had a clue, but I don't think you assume that she didn't.
One stripper I knew owned, in her own name, and ran design consultant business, which was fairly lucrative in its own right. She *could* have subsisted quite comfortably on that alone. But she laundered the money she made stripping and hooking through it as well. She had a Master's degree in her chosen field.
Another, the one with whom, some may remember, I had an interesting conversation about warp drive physics, was paying for her schooling *and* funding her retirement stripping. She had no student debt at that time, though now that she's doing post graduate work, that may have changed, but according to her FaceBook page, she's still in school, and according to her *other* FaceBook page, she's still dancing. Wish it were still here. :)
Anecdotal? Fuck yeah, but it does illustrate the point that neither having or pursuing an advanced degree and stripping need not be incompatible.
avg ~$700/wk = ~36k/yr is not great money.
"The five-year mark is usually the point-of-no-return of stripping" = very true IMO.

I was wondering when it comes to tricks if manual service is the same thing as a hand job.
Apparently Friday nights are the most popular in the Chicago area for performing tricks.
22 countries have legal prostitution.
type of trick only adds up to 90.99%. WTF happened to the other 9.01% ?
and if 40% paid and didn't receive service, that 'industry' should go out of business. I mean if I only got food 60% of the time I paid at a restaurant...
I've seen similar logic in a strip club before. You would think someone would be more careful to check totals before publishing statistics though.
I guess others could be all the freaky stuff some guys want as far as tricks go.
Maybe the guys paying the 40% paid because they got a bj but wanted it all or some crap like that, they did not get what they claimed they wanted but still paid. Maybe it would be like some guy wanting a hot dancer but instead an old fugly shows up at his door and he pays just to get rid of her. You would think he wouldn't use that escort or whatever service again.
