Feeling bad for stripper SOs

How can they compete against this lifestyle? I have never known a relationship to survive a girl's transition into full time stripping. If you're a 21 year old blue collar guy and your High School sweetheart decides to start stripping, you're already fucked in the bad way, even if you don't know it yet.
When I was 21 if my live in GF had decided to dance I'm not sure what I would have done. I was still in my early college days and working a crap job. Shit we actually lived close enough to a club that she could have walked to work each day. I would have been consumed with anger and insecurity and that's without knowing what I know now.
Anyone else ever think much about this?

But I very quickly realized that I could not handle the jealousy. All I thought about was other men putting their hands on her. So I ended it. From then on, I only dated girls that had very good jobs or came from families with money.
Now I have sugar babies that I realize see other men initially when I started seeing them. But I don't think of them as MY girlfriend.
And I have had other BGs speak of their husbands or boyfriends, some of whom are not dicks hanging on for the girl's money machine or free puss.
And as I was reading a book on Mexican (sub) culture, apparently it is considered a game for guys to try to seduce other guys' wives and girlfriends. They see it not as sex, but as a sport. Maybe someone more familiar with Mexican culture can confirm or deny this "fact."
And in Africa, apparently there is the "Love God." He travels from tribe to tribe fucking the local women. Apparently the tribes are so small, there is a risk to the diversity of the gene pool and his job is to bring that diversity to the group. Women fuck him to get pregnant and the husbands help raise the child. Whatta country.
The bigger point is that different cultures have different norms. At the risk of being labeled Captain Obvious, residents of the USA have one of the most sexually repressed cultures on the planet.
I know plenty of girls posting pics of airbnb mansion parties but living with 10 family members and goats.
Most strippers make enough to get by. The money isn't stable nor consistent. Many hild 9 to 5s to makr sure bills get paid.
They like to pretend theyre so well off to make men think their value is high so they'll spend money on them.
Its all just finessing.
Most of us have decades of experience talking to strippers, and in some cases becoming knowledgeable of their personal lives, and it seems pretty damn rare to find a stripper in a healthy wife/girlfriend relationship.
Salty, I disagree with much of this. IMHO most women are inherently relationship based creatures. Very few like to be alone and fewer still will easily leave a guy once they get past a certain point in a relationship, at least until a very long time has passed and they get older. I've spent all but a handful of months in my entire adult life in relationships and I did the leaving with my exes every time.
Now will some of the hottest ones have ample guys trying to make connections when they are young? No doubt, but if you're decent looking and have a good job, that dynamic shifts as well as their 20s progress.
With respect to strippers, I think that something that LW and shailynn alluded to was right on the money. Girls that choose to dance are likely not prone to be in healthy relationships to begin with. But if anything that makes me feel worse for the young guys who are trying to hang on in the face of impossible odds and who don't have the life experience to understand that they are already fucked the moment she decides to start dancing.
My SO’s lucky🥴🙄🤣😂🤪
I think the underlying motivations of the girl must be understood before a negative outcome can be determined.
If the guy is struggling financially, and the girl has no real job skills, it’s possible the stripping can be something to help make ends meet. This can be considered an affront to the man’s earning ability - and it can hurt the guys masculinity. But he must be honest and understand the girl is trying to help. If a time frame is set, and boundaries, this can work out.
If the couple is doing ok, but the girl wants more money for material items - nicer clothes, expensive shoes, etc. This can be worse, as the girl is primarily motivated to keep getting more brand names, and she is ok with compromising herself to make money. As she ages, she will need to go farther to make enough money for those material items, and that will be very difficult. This is when aging stripper syndrome can be dangerous, as she will never be satisfied with her current handbag, as there will always be another carrot in front of her nose.
But, these are large generalizations, and are prone to error.
Is she typical? Hell no, but it would appear that it's possible for some guys to be able to deal.
I'm confused doctorevil. How was I counter-trolling simply by encouraging you to post more Baby Dolls brothel stories and less pure troll nonsense? In case you're confused, we celebrate that sort of thing here on tuscl. Indeed fun times like that in Dallas are increasingly rare, especially when DPD raided and closed the Fare Room, which was also owned by the same person who owns Baby Dolls. We should all celebrate BD's continued commitment to high levels of action.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and state that half of all men are above average and half of all men are below average. (Friday morning math humor.)
NAAAASTY
Just a little more math humor...😇😷
But dating dancers ia different. Girls don't bring their work home with them. They never mention customers and any talk of work is limited to bitching about management and gossip.
The times jealousy comes up is when they get too touchy with guy friends coz theyre so used to close contact with men they don't give it a secind thought.
I also know some strippers end up being in lesbian relationships with other strippers. It seems like an interesting arrangement, although probably dramatic too.
Some clubs are very low mileage which probably makes it easier for stripper boyfriends.
NAAAASTY
Sugar, I hate to state the obvious, but if they were all such healthy relationships then why did none of them survive?
relationships end for reasons other than being a stripper
NAAAASTY
But lo! As the smartest of hairless apes you must realize that to inadvertently lick the jizz of ricks from thy mate’s honey pot is an honor to mere mortals. Those that look up from their actions and ask: what is this quintessence of jizz? Hark, ‘tis a rick.
Unless it’s vulture jizz. I like my little bud but he eats some rank stuff and I’m sure that makes all of his secretions kind of smelly. Not that I, as a rick, would look down on anybody who was into that sort of thing. ROAR!!!
Of course they do. But when they do end they are rarely "healthy" or else they would have continued. Now is it possible that one good relationship could end due to some freak or tragic event outside of anyone's control? Sure. But three is highly improbable (to say the least).
Sugar, I'm not trying to be remotely mean here and I'm sorry if it is coming across this way. I'm also not trying to pour salt into any wounds. It's simply my experience that it's very tough for girls in the business to form healthy long-term relationships. There's nothing wrong with making an active choice to focus on one thing vs. the other. Indeed, as one Russian fav (basically a SB) once said to me, "I'd never want a man who would be ok with me doing this," when she was telling me that both our side fun and her stripper career would be over when she met Mr. Right.
I just think you're off base with characterizing all or most terminated romantic relationships as unhealthy.
I personally think its not a problem unless you want to make it one.
Great comment. I think the USA is one of the most sexually repressed countries. Because of the Puritan ideology most guys where want to have a significant other or have this "emotional connection." Other guys I've met did not have this interest and they mainly wanted to have sex with girls and be done.
No, I'm not talking about the “low volume” druggies who eventually attach themselves to Rick in a hotel room. I'm talking about the codependent types who feel compelled to marry Rick, before they are cast off and they are taking care of children alone while Rick plays in strip clubs. (If he goes as frequently as he claims) I'm talking about the girl who marries a Rick and then he ignores her while simultaneously imposing a bunch of rules. (If what Rick claims on the board is true) I'm talking about the spouse who loves a Rick but just doesn't have the self-esteem to fight the temptation to move on elsewhere.
How can they compete against this lifestyle? I have never known a Rick to not be constantly chasing some feeling of ego boost. If you're a woman with a biological clock ticking, you're already fucked in the bad way, even if you don't know it yet.
When I was 21 if my BF lived in strip clubs I'm not sure what I would have done. I was still in my early college days and working a crap job. Shit we actually lived close enough to a club that it would have been an easy drive. I would have been consumed with anger and insecurity and that's without knowing what I know now.
Anyone else ever think much about this?
But you're way off the mark about the ego chasing. Anyone who tries to use strippers to boost his ego is a moron. I enjoy clubs and dancers for their entertainment value - no more no less.
But turnabout is indeed fair play. ;)
Separation is a *consequence* of an unhealthy relationship, not a cause or indicator.
There is nothing wrong with paying for or being paid for sex.
I once used to visit strip clubs every week and been out with a few dancers after work.
Lately I’ve been watching Donovan Sharpe on YouTube and a few others and they use the term SMV or sexual market value. Young pretty woman have very high SMV. Selling their bodies out for sex lowers that value to a guy with high SMV. Many men have caught on to the games women play and aren’t interested in long term relationships or marriage anymore. Marriage is at a 150 year low in countries that have been westernized. Birth rates are also dropping as more men are not wanting families, kids, or any long term marriage.
I had one dancer who I ended up getting to know over the years in our on again off again meet ups want to make me her boyfriend after the guy she had been sleeping with got her pregnant and left. She was desperate. I had told her I was moving to another state which made her cry when I said goodbye. It was probably good for me.
I can unfortunately imagine all the drama I would have had. I don’t think she wanted me as a boyfriend like she said. I think she wanted marriage and I would have had what one of my friends joked “instant family”. I dodged a bullet in my opinion. Would have been some pluses because she looked pretty good.
Another guy I watch has a channel called Better Bachelor. I watched one episode and found out the better bachelor guy used to DJ at a strip club in NC. Watching the dancers in strip clubs over the years helps teach you how easily some guys can be manipulated by the girls.
Anyway I just felt like commenting. It’s been a very rough year for me even though I’m doing quite good from a financial point of view. I’ve had 2 close family members pass away recently and haven’t had fun visiting a strip club since last year. I feel more alone which is probably why I’m thinking about old habits again.
