What's Your PL Pet Peeve about Strippers?
Call.Me.Ishmael

I suspect that every PL has a unique pet peeve regarding dancers that is not shared by most other PLs. What's yours?
For the sake of this thread, try to avoid the obvious. Pretty much all of us don't like SS or ROBs. Even stuff like tattoos (which has been debated here endlessly) and bad breath can probably be left out.
For me, if a stripper has a really loud, grating laugh, then that can be a deal breaker if she's less than an 8. That's probably not even on the radar for most guys here. But for some reason it really puts my teeth on edge.
Have at it.

I like chatting with dancer when she's up close and on stage. Actually don't like it if she's shaking her ass in my face.
It’s that bubble
Personality, they think whatever goes on inside the bubble of the strip club can be made true, just because. Things like “I’m hot, so pay me”, “You’re here to see me”, “why should I have to pay my water bill, water should be free?”, “Take me on a trip to Vegas, I deserve it.” You get the idea....
But beyond those pet peeves - my only dislike is the strippers that promise but don’t deliver. I want them dirty - and when a dancer talks filthy specifics in the front room - but doesn’t deliver in the back room - is a pet peeve of mine.
That’s about the extent of my dislikes.
(Low amount, then they will get smug and give hustle advice. High amount, and then it’s a competition.)
+ the "don't touch me at all if you haven't paid me yet" dancer - she walks over to me to chat me up and I grab a feel of her ass and she moves my hand - 99% of the time she's black-balled (unless she's very hot) - I can understand her thinking I'm trying to cop a free-feel, but it's a strip-club and for me personally your ass interests me more than your convo - I see the ass-feeling as part of the flirting and it turns me on to wanna spend - her not allowing touching while talking to me tells me she's not a fun/accommodating dancer (w/ the caveat I don't grope a dancer if I don't have intentions of getting dances from her - if I don't have any dance-intentions then I don't touch her)
+ the hard-seller - the dancer that does not try to engage you and seems to be solely about the $$$ as if she's almost literally reaching into your pocket to take your $$$ - i.e. the one that comes up to you and does things along the lines of "lets go do some dances - c'mon they're just $20 - let's go" - or literally grabs you by the arm and tries to pull you out of your seat to go to the dance area
I get it's their job but I wanna feel like they at least want to talk to me before. Somebody said it up there, the engagement and social factor is part of the fun
I kick myself, thinking I could have been doing that months ago!!
If she’s down with the program, send a damn signal with the floor dances! LOL!
Lol! That’s a whole new meaning of “blow smoke out of your ass”
The only time I don’t go on stage is when a customer buys me off. But on the other hand, I usually only have to go on 1-2x per shift anyways. It’s not a big deal.
What is the stage skip-fee in your club - and does it vary if you skip it once or for the whole shift?
On avg - how many times do you go on-stage per shift and how many songs per time you go on stage?
I usually go on stage 1-3 times a shift, except for when I occasionally work a dayshift.
In most clubs in my area, it’s a three stage rotation. Two songs per stage, for a total of six songs.
What does your stage-routine consist of:
* dancing around the pole?
* twerking?
* getting on the stage-floor on your knees or back?
* etc?
Do you make it a point to make eye-contact w/ the custies or you kinda just do your own thing?
My stage isn’t *that* impressive though. There’s definitely others who are more athletic with it though. And other dancers have an easier time getting “rained” on
I definitely make it a point to make eye contact with customers. I need to know who I’m dancing for when I get off :p
+1 @skibum too. Someone flaunting big ass or big boobs or w/e that I have no interest in.
Lately, it's this one dancer who knows my name and has started shouting it out when she's on stage. I can't remember whether I asked her not to do that. I do know I haven't been back since, so I have no idea whether she'll stop.
Re: the dancer smoking the cigarette with her other lips...saw that at a regular dance club (for you South Florida SCers, it's the club that originally was where Scarlett's now is).
That's why I like experienced dancers, they seem to pick up on vibes pretty damn fast.
So my pet peeve is when 2-3 hours in, she starts making up silly excuses to leave my table - like she "needs to pee" or "I have to go on stage." What's up with that?
I think to myself "damn girl, are you new or just that stupid"
That's when you just backhand a bitch and put her back in her lane - "bitch you aint's going nowhere"
If you have $$ for tattoos you have $$ to get your teeth fixed!
Another one are the dancers that know you want them to come by based on eye contact but they instead sit with loser after loser who doesn't give them a dime. These tend to be the ones who also gravitate to the bros who "make it rain" with $1 bills yet spend zilch on actual dances.
The ones who immediately sit on your lap before asking. I like the lap sitting just as much as any guy but usually they sit right on my wallet or phone that gets jammed into my leg. Ouch.
The lap dances where they constantly change positions. Tells me immediately they will not be worth any more time and don't know what actually pleases a man.
I'm not a fan of that either, but some of my best dancer experiences started that way. If I want more I talk about it, and sometimes the dancer gets the message and it's game on. Sometimes they just want to know it's worth their time to put some work in.
Now you mention it this is a pet peeve as well. To me(considering im not on their side of the equation) it should be "worth their time" from the first song. I dont show up to work and decide if the first hour of my shift is "worth my time". I already know im being paid. I know theres guys(who knows how many) that buy one dance and are done regardless, but still bullshit...
I'd like more dancer input on this thread.
Sure! On what specifically?
I think the standard stripper advice is to spend 2-5 songs with a customer before getting a dance. (The song variation depends on how busy the club is). Even if a dancer messed up by sitting with the wrong customer, then they should have known to leave.
Granted, there are “troll” customers every here and there who will lead a dancer on and try to act like they will be a viable customer when they really aren’t. A newbie will fall for it.
Idk. Most of the time, when I dance for a customer, it’s not a one and done. So I view them as potentially higher than $20. (Though sometimes, on some frustrating shifts, I encounter this several times in a row.)
But I agree that it’s poor form if you’re encountering that. Even if a customer is a jerk, I always pretend to be cheerful because my next potential customer could be watching me. There’s better ways to imply to someone you’re in demand and deserve money than taking an attitude with anyone.
Exactly. And how the hell am i supposed to know the magic number of dances before she starts trying?
Yeah thats not fair to waste your time like that. But i think more than just newbies fall for this. I see it far too often a dancer spends 10-20 minutes with somebody and then get no dances.
But also a dancer that holds back on the first dance needs to realize that there's a risk of losing a really good customer because of it. Competition and free market in this business is a beautiful thing. There are plenty of strippers that provide excellent first time dances and in the long run they are going to have more repeat business because of it.
This talk is making me cringe at newbie me. Even though I logically knew hanging around too long was a mistake, I didn’t have the backbone at the time to just walk off on these talkative jerks who kept trying to clamp down time for free.
But I know I’m much better at it now because these types now like to tell me “don’t just be about the money!”
But that was all on me. And I didn’t realize other customers would get bothered by such as thing as well. This is a really interesting discussion.
And yes it is perfectly fine for it to always be about the money. Even the part about pretending that's NOT what it's about. ;)
Sometimes you just want to say, "Know your place bitch if you want any money, or I'll just trade up for the '6' sitting down there."
Well, a 6 is what most of you "settle" for anyway.
