The ball busting sales technique?
Mate27
TUSCL’s #1 Soothsayer!
When it's slow for the girls, meaning a buyers market, do you ever find the attempts strippers make to sell you a dance are a feign attempt at emasculating you?
Example, "So, why aren't you getting any dances?" No introduction by the dancer, no hello, just an in your face attempt at verbally shovinf and manipulating their way into a sale.
Another example, as I was watching a baseball game due to my teams being in the playoff race, "are you looking at the girl or a guy?" Again no introduction or a "hello", just an attack on my manhood. There were several dancers In my line of view along the way to the TV that had the game on, so I got her joke. (Bases were loaded in a tie game). Yet she proceeds to tell me she is just busting my chops and then has the gall to ask "you wanna dance?" WTF, am I too old school to understand the modern day sales techniques? I mean I'm in sales, and never would I lead off with insulting the customer.

A stripper approaching a customer and just asking "Wanna dance?" is the equivalent of a car salesman approaching a customer and asking "Wanna buy a car?" Last I knew, a car salesman doesn't sell many cars with that little of an effort.
They read men's primal needs pretty well, and it's no wonder they get burnt out so fast. If it's true the brain is the largest sexual organ, and they're not hitting us in more ways than just physical, it gets lame.
My retort was I'm just finishing my drink and then I got to go. She says "you mean you got to run?" I said yes, if I stay much longer I will have to run out of here. She says, "well you better get running!" So snarky in her attitude I will never pay attention to her if she approaches again. So many strippers, so much stripper shit, and so few drugs for them to be on.
Those lines might be similar to asking "You don't really want a dance - do you?"
Even the biggest rookie on this board is probably a seasoned vet inside a strip club when compared an average PL who goes to the one club close to their house treating it almost like a neighborhood bar, or the one PL who sneaks out from his wife to get a glimpse of some titties. I'm betting a lot of guys get pressured or just say "yes" when asked "wanna dance?" So for the average stripper, if their lame inquiry works 1/3 of the time, they stick with it.
I used to think "damn she'd be good in sales" but ironman is probably right - they'd suck for a number of reasons, one being not being able to take rejection which would happen a lot more outside the strip club versus inside.
I get it where I'm a seasoned PL, and can see through the BS sales pitch they give. It just crosses the line to annoyance. Now if I can only get those kids off my lawn!
The general trend of lower quality dancers in the club to a more ratchety style has dancer techniques shifting to an edgy sales pitch with very little in the way of class. Lowering standards translate to a lower class of dancer, and hence a more desperate type of clientele. Then you have dancers on here claiming they are the shit, just because they can bilk lonely old men money out of their pockets.
No wonder the industry is getting ratchety.
