In all seriousness, that is the going rate in the Midwest clubs that I have been in. Each person is charged the single dance fee. I don’t think I have ever done a doubles dance. Some day perhaps. 😂 Although, it’s not like I’m against it.
And using the same logic why the fuck do PLs need to pay for two dancers for a double lap dance, damn the lappers cost $20 per song so the girls should split the price, I mean each girl does half the work. ;)

I was thinking the same thing.
But it comes down to time.
With a double lap dance you tie down two dancers for the full time, ergo pay both dancers for the full time.
A dancer performing for a couple is still only tied down for the one song so should only get paid for that, but a tip is probably in order.
The couple has to learn to work the system. They each pick their own girl, and go back at the same time, and sit next to each other (assuming the set up for LDs is one of those long ass couches where everyone goes for a LD)
nicespice. I think you’ve been more than fair for a male/ female couple.
But in today’s politically correct society... I guess you can’t correctly make that distinction anymore. so the possibility of icey entourage showing up and expecting your fairness to a traditional male-female couple does exist.
I always thought that the dancer is dealing with two people (and two sets of hands) instead of one. I wouldn't pay her double but I wouldn't pay her single either, probably something in the middle if I was sharing her.
To answer the question- I think it varies with the club. I've worked somewhere where you completely cant charge extra for a couple so it is the regular prices for dances/rooms. I've also worked where it is against the rules to not charge at least double per dance. So idk. Does it really matter? Just go with the club norm if it doesn't bother you.
I charge double for couples and no one can tell me not to....
Two laps Two people wanting to suck on my nipples Two hands trying to get into my g string I’ll probably end up making out with the wife.
My couple dances are A1. I’ll have a wife going crazy and her man feeling pretty lucky. Your either going to pay for my high mileage 5 star services or you can take ya ass elsewhere.
As far as Texas in general goes, I’m not too sure what the club norm is. I just assumed others did the same but idk now. I’m considering whether it would be a good idea to set it at $30 though—since it’s not like couples generally buy multiples anyways. 🧐
Seems like there would be somewhat of a special skill in dealing with couples. There could be a lot of different dynamics between couples in their relationship. These would require people reading abilities beyond dealing with a single customer. With a single customer it is all about the interaction between dancer and customer only. With a couple you need to balance the interaction with each of them simultaneously as well as their interaction with each other. This may be why some dancers do not dance for couples. Those skills are worth something and meeting on the middle like that on pricing seems fair.
The price may depend on what other dancers are charging on the same club in the same scenario. Also, if a couple does not thing the price is fair, ask them what is fair to them. You can chose to accept or reject.
One thing I have learned from selling os when selling to couples, always sell to the woman yet make it seem like he is the one making the decision. In most cases, If she is sold on the product or service, she will sway him and finish the sale for you
I can see an argument both ways - yeah it's two people but for w/e reason a couple at a strip-club is often seen as a single-entity, different than two guys whom each do their separate-thing whereas couples usually do everything together in the club (just my POV).
So I can see the argument for double-the-charge - but:
+ most couples seem turned-off at being charged-double - so decent-chance a dancer would be missing-out on their biz altogether - w/ other dancers perhaps not wanting to deal w/ them, perhaps pro-couples dancers willing to work w/ them can corner that biz in their club (assuming the couple spends decent)
+ if they are both getting the same level of service *at the same time* during the dance, then more of an argument to charge double - i.e. if she's dancing for one of them while the other is groping all over the dancer, then yeah that's double the service - but if the other partner is just watching, or if the dancer dances for one for part of the song, and then the other for part of the song, then IMO this may lie more in the single-charge camp
Perhaps a fair-compromise would be charging 1.5x - again I don't think two guys vs a couple is an apples-to-apples comparison.

Icey could turn up with his friends and expect to run a quick train on you for a measly $20.

The dancers aren't forcing the PL to tie them both down. The PL hires them.
Of course for a double lap dance I expect one dancer to dance on the lap while the other is on the guy's face.
Would you expect the dancer to accept the standard single rate if two broke college friends wanted to split the cost of a lapdance?
What if two guys wanted to split the cost of a vip session and each get half of the time?

^^^ wow this sounds odd. I guess if the two guys are into each other that would be fine. Otherwise it sounds like a 3 some with a other dude.

I had to pay a full price for each of the two for their time.
"They're giving dances to two people, so nothing wrong with charging each one.... otherwise dance for half a song."
Using that logic...
She's doing a half dance for each person, so she should charge each for half a song.
