From Breastaurant Waitress to Stripper?

^^^ Nice theory but I'd say breastaraunts to stripping is pretty unlikely. Stripping is still too taboo to a lot of girls but being a waitress or bartender in a slutty outfit is not.

One of my friends used to live at a Tilted Kilt that was in a university town and the majority of the girls there were really actually in college. At the local strip clubs none of those girls were in college - you could see a clear difference between the two.

I have known a couple strippers who have also worked at Hooters or Tilted Kilt. As far as I know, one job did not lead to the other.

Absolutely. Only a percentage of the girls will make the transition. But breastaurants are well known stripper recruiting grounds.

I've figured out the 'pervert row' of Tilted Kilt will be to sit at the bar with clear visual lines to the Waitress station. Maximum eyecandy. And while its lame by SC standards, If I'm in the mood to DRINK I'd rather have a Laguinitas IPA or a Bells Two Hearted Ale at the Kilt than be stuck drinking fucking Annheuser Bush schwill at one of the Hamilton clubs for the same price (of course, if I want extras I have to deal with the Budweiser crap)

Hamilton clubs are your regular haunt - you lucky fucker!!!!

Last Fall I met a solid 9 stripper at the Millstream Inn (near Baltimore) who was a past Tilted Kilt waitress. Very pretty and personable. Unfortunately, she didn't stay at the Millstream long. Don't know if she quit dancing or moved to a different club.

I have often considered the Millstream to be one step beyond a breastaurant. Full kitchen, topless dancers, tamer dances.

The jump from flirting at Hooters to nude, 2-way lappers seems to be a big one to me....

I think it's possible that some girls make the jump to stripping. However - it's a big jump - as the posing and skimpy outfits are much different than the stage dancing (actual entertaining) and high contact offered in strip clubs.

Do you think any strippers try to "clean up their act" - and move from dancing to working at a breastaurant?

One of my favorite Hooters waitresses decided to mice to the nearby Tilted Kilt. She is the cutest and must innocent waitress I could imagine, with the emphasis on the innocent--and then I saw her on a 45 minute porn video, in a casting scene, doing everything but anal.

Quite a transition, in my mind at least.

Most of the time women in sex work go harder and harder core, so the transition would be going from a Hooters to a Strip club, and then beyond.

SJG

I would think it would not be that big a transition – they are already being gawked-at and objectified; why not be gawked-at and objectified while making much more $$$ - sorta like going from SC waitress to stripper; not all do but many do.

They dress in sexy/provocative outfits to draw attention to themselves and get tips/bigger-tips; sounds pretty similar to stripping.

I think Nina Mambina posted that she was a Hooters girl at one point but IDK if that was prior-to or while she was stripping.

Sorry - after reading WetWilly's post - I lost my train of thought. Innocent looking - and doing a 45 minute porn video - that's hot!

Cashman, you can tell me. Do a search on pornhub.com using the word Hooters. Long Black hair, initially sitting on the bed in the preview still photo.

Oh yes. She's hot. I like that look. She has long dark hair - a sexy slender body - and she's both innocent and sexy too.

Thanks for letting me know where to look. I remember there was a discussion earlier about all the views that pornhub gets each year - now there are a few more!

Cashman, that video if hers has 14 million views....you think she looks innocent at the beginning if that video, you wouldn't believe how innocent she seems in person. My wingman and I were both shocked to see the video. We've talked to her so many times, we'd have each bet a million bucks she'd be the last girl We'd ever see on a porn site.

The transition from breastaurant waitress to stripper is a natural one, though I've encountered only one stripper (that I know of) who actually made that transition, from serving at Hooters to serving her hooters :) It can also happen in the opposite direction -- I can think of a few strippers who moved to bartending jobs. A cute "bartendress" in a miniskirt and cleavage-y top at a popular high-end bar can make a bundle in tips!

WetWilly - she has a sweet look - a little innocent. But she really shines when she's nude. The look of her tight butt and her tan lines are excellent. Great tits to look down at while she sucks cock too.

Is this it?pornhub.com

GAZA, Yep, that's my girl

Sorry, autocorrect error, GACA.

One time i was recommended to buy a playboy that had a couple girls from a local college in it. I knew one of the girls. I found out she was a twin when I saw her and her sister as the centerfold. The one I knew worked at Hooters

One of my current faves pulled off that transition from Hooters waitress to stripper. She claims all the females working at Hooters either used to be strippers or want to be strippers.

For degree of difficulty, one of my other current faves went from Buffalo Wild Wings waitress to stripper. I have no idea how that happened.

A common myth is that stripping and porn is easy money. I would think you could make almost as much from tips at a busy Breastaurant unless you did extras. All the relatively smart dancers I have ever talked to say the same thing that you have to work it hard both on and off stage to make any money. Sitting on your ass with a few young non spenders won't make anything. That is why there is such turn over. To me what is the difference between a stripper that does extras, an escort, or a porn actress? All screw for money, just in different locations. Many new porn actresses think they can jump from porn to regular movies.NOT!

TiredTraveler - I think folks see articles about the money the top shelf strippers/top level escorts/most popular porn stars make - and think there's lots of money to go around. They don't understand that it's work to develop a following - and there is also talent (likability, good looks, etc.) that makes certain girls much more marketable than many many others.

It's the same in most industries - as there is a small percentage at the top of the food chain - who make great money - and the majority work hard to get by - just like the rest of us.

With PLs, there are many many guys who do ITC or OTC extras with strippers, but who don't do escorts at all. Even though it's arguably fundamentally the same thing -- paying a woman for sex -- it can be a huge psychological step for many guys. Stepping over that red line, from "guy who guys to strip clubs" to "whoremonger" can be really big.

I wonder to what extent this applies to women. A girl working at a breastaurant can honestly just tell people she's a waitress; it doesn't take much more courage to say she works at Hooters, I would guess. But it feels like it could be a pretty big psychological step to go from "waitress at a restaurant where I wear skimpy clothes" to something like stripping, which is stigmatized by society.

I could definitely see breastaurant waitress as kind of a gateway drug ... many/most women will feel that that's their personal limit and that they're happy with the money they're making, but a good number will decide "this wasn't as bad as I though, and if I make this much money here, I'm willing to go for big money stripping". And alternatively, I totally can believe a stripper who decides that stripping is too much for her (because of a boyfriend, or whatever), might use breastuarants as a halfway house step out of the sex biz

There was a girl at a nearby hooters I recognized spot on as escort on preferred 411. She even said she was a hooters girl in her profile. Its not really that much of a leap to strip in my opinion but it is a bigger leap to transition to escort or extras girl.

Some small percentage of Hooters (and I assume other Breastaurant girls) are also escorts. I have had several friends (not strippers but real-world friends) tell me they tried Hooters at one point but girls that worked there were openly turning tricks with customers. They just arranged them at the Hooters. If you see waitresses going on or off shift, once in a while you will see one driving a Lexus, MB, BMW, etc. They did not make that money just waitressing.

Do a google search-- about 10-12 years ago the Hooters in Auburn AL got in big trouble. Their female corporate trainer told the girls they were expected to "service" high rollers. One quote was about getting the whale tips-- "If that means you have to suck a cock, you suck the cock. Whatever it takes." That was from the female corporate trainer!

While she was not at the training session, one friend tried working at that Hooters for a short while. On football weekends there were lots of rich PL type guys parked around there in RV's. Some waitresses regularly went out the back door to take "Winnebago breaks".

I think there are different perks and negatives of stripping and breastraunt waitressing. Most of the dancers I know would prefer to dance even if it pays the same to waitress, or for many, they couldn't manage to waitress. We can pretty much come and go as we please and not get fired, we can drink and be high at work (for those who use drugs), we can tell customers exactly what we think of them if we get mad, choose who we talk to, and our coworker relationships are pretty simple, but even when girls actually get in fights, they don't usually get fired.

The only perk ab being a waitress is that you don't have to dance on strange in a thong, and you don't have to give dances. Those girls still have ongoing customer relationship, and I've heard some stories ab breastraunt girls making even crazier demands than strippers of their customers friends. Plenty of strip club waitresses, and bartenders, make more than dancers. I know dancers who used to be waitresses, but couldn't stand all of the rules and demands of the club.

"you don't have to dance on strange in a thong,..."

Is that what you meant to type or was it a Freudian slip when you intended to write stage?

Yes "stage." I type on my phone. :/

LOL. I think it is funnier as strange. BTW, I post almost exclusively one my phone too, and with only one thumb.

Papi - I got hired at Hooters but orientation turned me off too much as I realized how cheesy it was and how peppy I always had to be so I never even went to my first training shift.

"I would think you could make almost as much from tips at a busy Breastaurant unless you did extras." Tiredtraveler, I would hope not. A girl I knew who did work at Hooters said she made $150-200 on a Friday or Saturday night. I would be appalled to make that as a dancer even on a weekday. I'm sure the money is better at really touristy places and get the occasional huge tip but in general I disagree completely.

Depends entirely on the type of "breast-aurant" ...

At a corporate nationally run chain, such as Hooters, girls who can make it as strippers can't start out as waitresses. Because such chains require all the things which are useless to strippers but useful for their waitresses -- remembering a customer's order, arriving on time, working rapidly to all orders regardless of size or income-potential, raising tippage mostly off of charm and polite interaction, etc.. So, at a typical Hooters, I think most waitresses are likely to never become strippers, just as most strippers are not likely to ever have been Hooters waitresses, in general.

At a crappy single-location "breast-aurant", especially in smaller cities, I think waitresses are highly likely to link over to stripper-dom. Those places hire the girls without such corporate necessities in mind; they're the "village Venus" types, hottest girl in their senior class and never met anyone who didn't think so; they thrive on the positive feedback that their visual appearance automatically gives them. Then they hit the disappointment of lack of money for beauty which waitress-pay gives them, and upscale it. By learning literally no new skills, but walking across the street from "Hoot-o-rama" to the local strip joint, their income quintuples overnight.

So, stripper from waitress at corporate breast-aurant? probably no, with a few random variations; but, stripper from waitress at individual mom-n-pop breast-aurant? highly likely yes. IMO.

All this talk about Hooters and Twin Peaks etc, is making me hungry.

I knew of a stripper or two who got temporary jobs at Hooters. I saw them there. One was in between stripping jobs. One was leaving the business working on her degree. She succeeded. In a strange turn of events a year or two ago, I saw her on tv. A dog got dragged and taken to the vet for treatment. She treated the dog, I recognized her. I rarely get to find out that dancers successfully transitioned to other jobs while still young and pretty but I have seen it happen. Almost seems like a shame that they quit so early but I guess they wanted to quit the business. They thought of stripping as a temporary job.
