sex needs to be decriminalized.

While Portland may have more clubs per person finding decent two way contact is difficult to say the least.
Portland has more regulations on everything than almost every other city I have been to. If you are gay you can sell it and screw on a street corner in daylight but if you are straight you will get arrested if you ask a stripper for a grind.

Yeah, I thought it was interesting, too. Interesting to see whether brick-and-mortar strip clubs will diminish or disappear in an age where people hook-up online. Uber-ized sex work might cut out strip clubs and strip club management -- and that's probably a good thing.

I was only there once, but, yeah, Portland seemed like a complete waste of time strip club wise. Overall the city's weirdness and artsyness just didn't appeal to me, so I would just drive through.

Vegan Strip Club. Yep, that sounds like a complete Portland idea.

I only tried the online thing once many years ago and it was not a good experience. I got the feeling most of those girls had pimps. Maybe times have changed and time to try it again? Anyone here have any experience with the modern online experience?

I could almost see a strip club challenge here for the 'Vegan' strip club: Go in, Wear a "People Eating Tasty Animals shirt",park yourself at a table not at pervert row but close to the stage, and tell the dancers during the tip parade that you only tip girls who wear leather. If they try to expel you from the club tell them that you are practicing first amendment speech .

Remember that we had a dancer member from Portland. Despite the fact that many said there was not FS in Portland Clubs, she was emphatic that there was, and she seemed to be in a position to know. From what I could detect in the dancer's xotispot profiles, there had to be. Its just that it was at the dives, not the clubs which appeal to hipsters.

And our dancer friend insisted that in the dives of dives, the "dancers were street hookers". From what I have been able to see in how xotispot is used, and in the things people write, this look to be true. In the most extreme of the dives, only half of the dancers even have xotispot profiles. It really is just like they were recruited from standing out on the sidewalk.

When you have that many clubs per capita, then there is a huge developed market, and so the competition will be intense. So many people on all sides of it accustomed to these sorts of businesses.

Some of you guys say that LE is tougher in more liberal cities. I think that is a misunderstanding of the situation. Portland is a very liberal city.

So some would see this as a hell hole, and some will see it as a paradise. I think, people go to a new city, and they find what they want to find.
