Mexican state of Coahuila

I don't know about Juarez, but El Paso has strip clubs.

When the good die, they go to Paris. When the bad die, they go to El Paso.

I am not actually aware of any strip clubs which are now open in Juarez. This Joker, on Gomez Morin, is still standing, but no one seems to know that it is open. With some of the others, the buildings have been demolished.

But others say all is well there. I think strip clubs are sort of secondary in Mexico. The more basic form is just the hooker bar, where the girls take you else where. After that it is the house of dates, where they have session rooms.

But a strip club is a more involved set up.

We know about El Paso.

But how about Ciudad Acuna, or Piedras Negras, or even some place like Aqua Prieta or Palomas?

What you're always talking about... Can be found in strip clubs in El Paso. It may not be your Mexican dream but it's the USA version, although the dancer quality in El Paso isn't quite up to par.

I have never been to Juarez but that's a place you do not want to go. I had a friend that was there a few years back and he travelled with a security team that made sure my friend and his group were out of there the moment dusk hit. I asked my friend "that serious?" And he said "yep, that serious."

^^^^ bullshit. Juarez is the safest place on earth and there are streetwalkers everywhere wearing little school girl uniforms and big high-heeled stripper shoes just waiting for someone from EE.UU to drag them into a filthy alley and forcefully have his way with them so they can get off like never before. and they all dream about finding a macho gravy drinking leader who never asks for their permission for anything who will make them join his revolution against “Customer Only” parking signs in Denny’s restuarants

yeah it really is paradise on earth.

oh yeah i forgot to mention that 2 AM is the magic hour when all the women come out into the streets looking to DFK any gringos that know about this very secret Juarez tradition. it's paradise i tell you

Shailynn,

Thanks for the info. Yes, I know about El Paso. It sounds fantastic! Just like Reno and Las Vegas, its a potential state tax haven too.

As far as the culture of that place, it is so far West that maybe it is more NM than TX. I am looking forward to it and would like to have a permanent address there.

As far as Mexico in general, and the broader US too, I plan to be doing a great deal of ground travel for business, but trying to limit the daily distance. Just like Ryan Bowen who rode his bicycle from Los Angeles to the Obama inauguration in January, I figure that an extreme Southern route, at least as far as the Mississippi and New Orleans, is the best one to open up first. So West Texas is one of the broader expanses of openness and only small cities..

Specifically about Mexico, I see it as a wonderland, with the new language and new culture, which I am already somewhat exposed to locally, I see it as a chance at a new life.

Hotels in Ciudad Acuna kayak.com

If they have hotels, I suspect that they have hooker bars, or at least street hookers. Though I am told that in Mexico at the regular hotels, if they think your girl is an escort, they won't let her in. I would never stand for such in the US, but in Mexico I'll be going with the flow and staying out of trouble.

About Juarez, it is interesting because it is, like El Paso, an obvious transportation crossroads. After TJ, it is the second highest boarder crossing place. Also, it the gateway to the state capital of Chihuahua, which has one of the highest literacy rates in the country. It already has a Ford body parts stamping plant. Those larger cities about 200 miles in offer a more stable and lower cost, but very high quality, labor force. The border towns consist of people who, due to capitalism, have been ejected from family and clan. They are wilder people and they are far less stable. The interior cities are not like this, there they are more like the Mexican immigrants I have lived with locally for decades.

I got some recent numbers on the Juarez homicide rate today. It is in the mid 400's per year. Also there are new businesses opening. There are also maquiladora factories there as well.

So coming down from 1600 homicides per year, to the present number is a big change. There are places in the US which are higher.

And then with the people who work in factories, getting up at the same time each day and showing up and collecting their pay checks, they will have zero tolerance for narco culture or narco bling, or for anything else like that. Mexican culture is very much family based and hence very conservative.

So we will have to wait and see what happens from this point forward. It is actually the string of town pairs going out to the East of Juarez, for about 50 miles, like say Praxis Guerro, where the casualty rate equaled that of war zones. We will have to wait and see what happens from this point forwards. We don't get enough info about Mexico, on TUSCL, or in our general news either.

As far as how it goes in the best of Mexican clubs, Dr. F. tuscl.net

At the Mexican Bar Bikini Shows in San Jose, they did not have a hotel just upstairs, and there were still limits, but the general temperament of the people was not much different from what Dr. F. is describing. In Mexico the laws are different, but the reason for this is that the people are different.

Thanks again Shailynn for the heads up,
