Why Do Women Go Into Stripping?

They never tell you what you need to know.

With the recent passing of Dakota Skye it made me think why do women go into stripping? I know she was a porn star but I figured this was related. I thought about it and put them into 3 categories. I know I’m probably missing several. 1. No discipline - I know several strippers that could never hold a normal job because they could never adhere to a schedule. Getting away showing up sporadically to work when they feel like it is the way they make money. I can’t think of any other job that would allow this. I know some clubs keep strict schedules for dancers but many do not. At some if you show up to work the only requirements are your tip outs and you have to stay a minimum and in some cases a maximum amount of hours. 2. Fast easy money with no requirements. A lot of strippers claim working as a stripper is fast easy money (mostly untaxed) that really only requires them to be attractive and sometimes that is even negligible. No education, special degree or training certificate or skill set needed. The same could be said for many other jobs out there but let’s face it, a young attractive girl is more likely to make more money stripping than working at Applebee’s all while likely working less hours during the week. 3. Eye on the prize, best way to reach goal. Not all strippers are unorganized or uneducated. The best example I have for this is a girl quit her low paying job, lost weight, got in shape and became a stripper at age 30. Her goal is to make enough money over the next decade, save enough to pay for a house in cash, have a small nest egg, and go back to the previous low paying job (which was an elementary school teacher) but with no house payment and some savings she would be able to live comfortably on a teachers salary without the worry of finding a spouse helping with expenses. Her reasoning for stripping was it was the fastest and easiest way for her to achieve that “financial independence” so to speak. She would normally work 5-6 days a week being inside the club a minimum of 40 hours a week. She treated it like a 9-5 job just as many other well organized strippers do.

    In south Florida we've got a lot of undocumented immigrants with limited to no other options. Strip clubs tend to be willing to look the other way on the whole "right to work" thing more than other industries.

    It can be a combination of those three categories, as well. There's also no shortage of dancers who are single moms that strip to provide for their kids. This is especially true to for women who aren't well educated, and even those who are but not in fields connected to good pay.

    Second item probably describes most strippers -- fast easy money with no requirements. Which is fine as long as she realizes that stripping has a finite "shelf life" and as long as she has an exit plan. The problem is that there often isn't an exit plan it's hard for an attractive 21-yr-old to understand the brutal truth that her irresistible physical attractiveness fades so quickly and that all the bald grandpas in the club will simply go on to the next young thing in the club. I recognize Dakota Skye's picture and she was a nearly perfect physical specimen. What a sad shame that her life ended so early -- eaten up, spit out, and exploited by the system.

    Stripping is the only job where you can drink and take drugs, not show up when you feel like it, and make extra money by having sex.

    I don’t know why women become strippers. But I some ideas about factors that are evidently unimportant to women who become strippers: * high social prestige; * hefty matching employer contributions to their 401K plans; * medical and dental benefits; * on-site company fitness center and childcare facility; * paid vacation; * paid maternity leave; * progressive, rigorously enforced anti-sexual harassment policy.

    In my experience, it comes down to good money (one in Providence said she pulled $2,000 on a good night) and the chance to party, drink, smoke weed. Extras girls say they like money and fucking/sucking. Some are actually working through college and using it as a bridge to a legitimate career. Some love how it makes them feel desired by men and gives them control. @Reverend, I saw one bring an 8-10 year old boy roaming around a club. Not sure if he was a dancer's daughter but definitely out of place.

    Tetradon said "@Reverend, I saw one bring an 8-10 year old boy roaming around a club." If this was at Club Desire, that kid is Gerard's son (Gerard being the club's owner). No joke, I believe he stops in every so often after school. And, yeah, it's a bit weird. He'll typically hang out for 15 to 20 minutes talking to the staff and dancers. I think he eventually winds up in the offices somewhere. That kid is going to have some interesting stories to tell when he's an adult.

  • grand1511

    This is probably atypical but I was talking to a dancer a couple weeks ago who told me she was brand new to the game. Without prompting she also said she made the switch from selling cars because she thought the money would be a lot easier to make. She was about a 6 and quickly admitted she wasn't into wearing heels or skimpy outfits. And that explains why she was sitting alone looking at her phone for most of the night. Gotta think these days there's easier money selling cars.

  • Call.Me.Ishmael

    In a broad comparison between stripping and car sales, I see more honesty and integrity amongst strippers. Tetradon ... I was told by a bartender that Gerard's kid is the only kid allowed inside the club. For long-time dancers, it's possible that exceptions would be made for emergencies. But, generally, if you see a kid in Desire, it's Gerard's son.
  • Call.Me.Ishmael

    On a slight tangent ... I never ask dancers what got them into stripping. I assume that the answer will be a lie. And most dancers don't want to share their personal stories with customers any more than customers want dancers involved in their personal lives.

    Another reason is other strippers Strippers are often treated as celebrities by their women "friends" in the civie world. Gloated over to there face than ridiculed behind their backs. Strippers out in the civie world often dress sexy and have designer clothes. Very enticing for attractive civies that really have no idea what the stripper has to do to make good money.

    ICEE likes to elevate herself above being a two-bit drug dealer that takes advantage of junkie strippers. When she spars with PLs it's her defense mechanism.

    There are multiple things that apply to different dancers, but as many have mentioned I imagine the biggest reason is the $$$ - if you are a young-girl w/ no college degree or particular-skill(s), if she’s attractive and willing to be a stripper she can “potentially” make in one night what make take her 2-weeks/80-hours, or more, of often hard(er) work, to earn – add to this instant cash on a nightly basis (when she works) vs waiting for a paycheck, not having taxes taken out (or declare just enough to where she may come out ahead depending on her circumstances) – with a vanilla hourly-job she would be constrained by her mostly static-earnings which may not be enough for all her bills (or at least unexpected bills) and thus she can be somewhat stuck; whereas dancing she can increase her earnings by hustling more (selling more dances/VIPs, etc) vs being stuck at the same pay-level week-after-week and not getting anywhere. Hard to know what a dancer really makes – but perhaps one can assume it’s similar to most sales-jobs where some do alright/well-enough and some make a killing (depending on the job, industry, person) – I assume an avg dancer in an avg club could pull the equivalent of $50k to 75k per year which is fairly-middle-class especially in many non-coastal-areas; and if she has a working S.O. then they can live alright – I assume an attractive dancer, working in good club, who works consistently, can probably pull $100k/yr or a more; and a few that are very-attractive; know how to hustle, and work in very-good clubs, can probably pull $150k+/yr – again these are assumptions on my part and dancer-earnings are likely all over-the-place; we’ve all being in clubs were it seems dancers can’t sell a single-dance; or where some dancers are unable to sell dances like other girls; and just as well we’ve been in clubs where certain dancers seem to be constantly in demand and busy w/ paying customers. My point is that an attractive-dancer in a good club can earn what a well-paying white-collar person earns (doctor, etc) w/ no requirements/skills other than being attractive and willing to hustle at the stripper-game – and an avg dancer w/ no particular skills nor schooling can still earn a good-amount more than what other people in that boat earn; and this is likely the main-reason most girls take the plunge – and then there are other reasons such as flexible scheduling; sitting on your ass if you feel like it that day; partying; drinking and drugs; and for a good #, not being able to adhere to the requirements/demands of a typical/normal job.

    The thing is, if your a hot girl. You just have to show up and be hot. You really don’t have to do anything at all. Guys will be throwing money at you. In fact, not only do you not have to do anything, you could be the biggest cunt in America and your STILL gonna be rolling in the doe. Hotness is a highly paid skill.

    Also in some instances in might depend on the location. In some towns and cities with not a ton of industry, stripping is hands down going to be the best money for an 18, 19 year old. Vs entry level minimum wage stuff. Why not?

    Its complicated. Different factors come into play. Girls who do extras ruin it for girls who don't. Being an okay looking girl at a non extras club will be easier money than being a hot girl at an extras club. The type of customers a club has is important. Touristy clubs. Black clubs. Clubs with blue collar guys. I've seen blue collar clubs be the most stable. Easiest to get regulars. Guys will come in regularly when they get paid. Black clubs can have great one off nights but the earnings aren't stable. Girls will make a bag on a Friday or Saturday though. Touristy clubs are great during convention season otherwise a hit or miss. I think all girls lie about how much they really make. But its all over the place. I was with my ex for 5 years almost. She had ayear where she made $15,000 and one where she made $80,000. On average it was like $43,000 though. A lot of girls live beyond their means. And they need someone to cosign for their apts cars. And those people end up getting screwed over. They do it coz their entire sense of self validation gets tied to money.

    Years ago there was a very popular dancer at HL. An extras honey. I very rarely saw her sitting out a song and she rarely took a day off. I did a rough estimate of how much she was bringing in yearly and I guessed around 300k conservertly. This was before tip outs. She was outstanding and I miss her Everytime I visit.

    PinkSugarDoll is obviously correct. If there was not good money in it there would be no strippers. Most of the on-topic discussion is more about the "why this rather than some other job?" aspect. There are many reasons and situations and I'm sure most strippers fall into one or more of the categories being discussed. I do agree a big driver is the for girls just out of high school (especially in areas with mediocre education) is they are ill prepared for anything more than minimum wage jobs. Add to that being a single mom or some other reason to need that advanced earning capability right now. There are very few jobs where the right new hire can shoot right to the top of earnings.

    Found out about this particular thread from a different forum and came here to say it's gross. It is littered with outdated stereotypes and hilarious and uneducated misconceptions. I know most of you are old lonely men who are behind on the times, but perhaps be a little more open-minded and realize that most strippers are a lot smarter than you give us credit for. While steeerotype reasons exist for a reason, those that were brought up above fall into a large minority. I will give one of the commenters props in speaking of illegal immigrants who can't get a job elsewhere though. Otherwise, have you considered many of us are portraying a character in order to attempt to empty wallets? Are you more likely to spend money on a dumb hoe, or very well educated and articulated female? Totally rhetorical. Please look outside your echo chambers.

    Yeah ... maybe. The profile shows that Araxie joined in May 2021.

Also, there's more than a few dancers who have disparaging opinions of customers ("lonely old men," etc.). So, could it be Icee?... sure. But it could also be a dancer who felt like scolding a bunch of customers.

And I think he's perfectly happy to leverage another user's post to stir shit in any given thread. In any case, I think it's impossible to answer what motivates women to dance beyond the obvious, which is "for money". I think that there are as many motivations as there are dancers, and trying to get it all to fit within a few defined columns is a fun debate on a titty bar website, but not much can be expected beyond that. I just know that I'd be disappointed if they all suddenly decided not to dance. That would suck.

    @Tetradon ... Now, you see, I don't doubt that there are some dancers who are also nurses. But, there was a time when there were so many dancers at Foxy, Caddie, and the Satin Doll (yes, I'm aging myself...) telling me that they were either nurses or in nursing school that, if it were true, then half the guys in RI would be stepping into traffic on a weekly basis. So, I sort of came to the conclusion that it was a popular canned answer when guys asked "So, what do you do when you're not working here?" Like I said, it could be true for that dancer, but I'm still suspicious when a dancer says that she's a nurse. I suspect that it's harder today for dancers to have vanilla jobs while also dancing. It used to be that all they had to do was get a job at a club a couple of hours from home and they were relatively safe. Now, with social media, an dancer is always one hashtag away from being found out by her peers at a regular job.

    @ICEE, seriously, I don't know why you spend so much time here when most of your posts either insult or talk shit about everyone. This thread, as many others, you started the name calling. As a result, you are more blocked then the resident schizophrenics. I'm sure you realize most of us don't go to strip clubs for the same reason you do. Why are you here?

    Icee is the the equivalent to a person who is violently allergic to animal dander, but gets a job at a pet grooming studio, and then complains about people bringing all their pets into the building. In my opinion, there's no way that someone who is sincerely opposed to essentially everything anyone posts here would stay here ... unless they're solely out to stir shit and get attention. Because, it's been made abundantly clear that he's not going to win anyone over to the "Icee way" of dealing with strippers and strip clubs. So, the payoff is the drama and turmoil. I've never believed that his depiction of himself has anything to do with reality. It's all a persona intended to get people spun up over ... nothing. But I guess if that puts a breeze up his shorts, then have at it.

    Not Icee. However, a brief glance at his(her?) previous comments leads me to feel inclined to agreed with them on *some* aspects. S/he spits *some* logical facts about the sex work industry seemingly without bias or stereotyping. It was on the escorting subReddit where we were discussing the hobbyists having fun subReddit. Someone mentioned this thread specifically. I found out about this site from the Strippers Only subReddit last month though.

    I have no doubt that Icee is an idiot. I'm just not fully convinced that Araxie is Icee. But, ultimately, even if I come to believe that they're the same person, the revelation that someone is running a sock puppet (or ten...) on TUSCL isn't earth shattering news.

    >>>>All you idiots do is troll every thread I post in. Thats why you're here<<<< You came late to this thread just like every place else, no one was paying attention to your existence You make the stupid claim we are trolling you, as usual,the evidence speaks for itself, go to the beginning of this post and tell us who came on here with the troll remark We all were here already, you jumped in with your usual lack of respect and started this dumpster fire, now you start whining like a little bitch because you're getting your ass kicked yet again, you are no one here has the slightest bit of regard for you, in fact I bet, if you were on fire no one here would even bother to piss on you.

    There's no single answer of course. I would love it if we could just get a thread full of straight, honest answers from our actual verified dancers; rather than a bunch of old men, incels, and trolls insulting each other.
  • Tetradon

    ^ If you want that, we need a forum for VIP members and dancers who are not known trolls (a spot on the ignore list is a great place to start) or sock puppets (occasionally funny, but mostly tiring).

    @Tetradon ... I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not. Sometimes hard to tell in text-based forums. Anyway, we have two additional forums where this could happen. VIP Room [view link] Verified Members [view link]

    Yeah, that has been debated ad nauseum. The ultimate answer comes down to it requiring a level of moderation that Founder doesn't like. And, it's his sandbox. Anywho, just as an experiment, I created the VIP edition of this thread here: [view link]

    Why Do Women Go Into Stripping? Short answer - sex sells
  • Icee Loco (asshole)

    The illusion of sex sell mor than sex itself. A good stripper can be everyone's dream girl. She has to come across as unattainable. That reels customers in. She has to make the fantasy addictive for no matter how short a time.

    ICEE you seem really butthurt about old men that have fun with strippers. Seems like you project this thought a lot. Is it coz you have to compete with them for GFE? Or is it coz you know what your sister does with them?

    I think for some girls the profession aligns with their social media Instagram life style. Probably some are stripping thinking they will be the next Cardi B or Amber Rose.

    " it will surprise you to know a lot of strippers have college degrees" I knew a girl that graduated law school with no student loan debt by stripping at Rick's in Houston. At the time it was good money at a clean non-extras club that gave the flexibility needed for classes and studying. Having said that high end clubs tend to be the exception, not the norm. I suspect the percent of dancers over all with professional degrees is less than the general population. In the mid-tier to dive clubs I have frequented over the past couple of decades, You find far more addicts or bipolar dancers than you do college students / grads.

    As far as education goes.... I knew 1 stripper who got a degree in international business. Saved up her stripper money and bought a subway franchise near a subway stop in Manhattan. I know quite a few girls who studied to be dental hygienists and medical assistants only to realize they can't live off the money they were making. Between $12 to $17 and hour. Many have kids or younger siblings they take care of. Moms who can't get jobs. Im proud of their hustle.

    Just to confirm with what actual strippers have posted in this thread, I just read this tweet from one... "Not to glamorize sex work or whatever but making a living wage working 15 hours a week is why I’m in this industry. Free time and the money to spend this time how I want is the ultimate luxury." Here is her Twitter and please note I don't follow her. I came across it through a retweet: [view link]

    Interesting discussion (except the ICee stuff) I know a few girls that actually did strip to pay for college. I know a few girls that strip because it was fast money and they had an exit strategy so it worked. I know a girl that worked for 10 years, invested well and built a house on the water on the Cape for cash. (I hooked her up with a dependable builder) I know some girls that hate the job but have no other skills and a child to take care of. I know girls that just love the attention and the power. I know some girls that just want to be a hoe. There is a story as different as the girls that are doing it.
