Well, firstly, a SC is one place I absolutely don't underestimate a woman's ability to protect and take care of herself. I'd be conciously slower to intervene based on that alone.
Secondly, a strip club is one place I also don't underestimate a man's ability to be bat shit crazy and liable to fly off the handle. Naked women can cause a man to confuse whether the ends justify the means. Because of this, though I am a big and frankly intimidating looking (to some) man of color, I would rarely ever directly intervene. If the situation called for it, I'd let a bouncer know so the professional can handle it.
I'd only interfere if it looks like there will blood on the ground in the next 60 seconds. Dancer and/or customer could be on drugs. Dancer and customer can be GF/BF, junkie/dealer, girl/pimp, stripper/SC owner [oh yes!], corner ho/OG for her project. Tell a bouncer and leave it at that. You can be kicked out before the stripper and her customer because the bouncer knows the stripper's history, and doesn't know you. If you and woman beating customer are kicked out together, a 2AMer can happen in the next 30 seconds.
In other kinds of venues where I thought there may have been a problem with a creep hassling a girl, I've just stood by, and let her see that I was doing that. It depend on her to make the call, by trying to get away.
In a strip club the same procedure would apply. If the guy went further or the girl tried to get away and he pursued her, I'd want the bouncer to act. But I'd still be there and intercede, if they didn't.
Once in Sunnyvale, at a place where the stage is behind the bar, some drunks were draping $1 bills over the ends of pool sticks, and trying to pass them to the stage this way.
This was not good. These guys were going too far waving their pool sticks around.
Most people just ball up the money and throw it. Others save it until the girl comes around for her tips rounds.
I told the bouncers rather forcefully that they needed to put a stop to the waving around of the pools sticks.
With drunken buffoons, there are ways of interceding, without being belligerent or prevocational.
Who would demand an LDK? That's one of those things that you don't ask permission for ahead of time. Depending on the fabric of your pants - and the size of the load - she might not even notice!
