How do you define a lapdance?

How do you personally define a lapdance? How are they legally defined and how do clubs define them? Some clubs even advertise them as “full contact lapdances”.

Extras don’t count. Are they defined as time you’re paying where you can grope a dancer and she grinds on you?

Some of the dances I’ve gotten, seem to bend the rules of what a lapdance should include. For instance some dancers will grind on you for the duration of the dance. But some will do things like just sit next to you and talk. Lay on you and talk. Or some will constantly switch positions. Like start off grinding on your crotch, facing away from you. Then switch to grinding on your left thigh, facing you. Then grind the right thigh, facing you. Then even do a weird thing like stand up, put their head over your shoulder and breathe in your right ear, then repeat the process in your left ear, then repeat the dance. Or stand up and put their boobs in your face, or their asscheeks in your face.

Some will allow touching nipples throughout the dance, and even the pussy throughout the dance, whereas some would allow less touching of those areas, and some allow no touching of those areas.

Does wording the activity as a “dance” or “lapdance” obscure things and allow a dancer leeway to do all these things and still fit into the definition of a dance/lapdance?

For instance if someone’s mowing your lawn you would assume at least 95% or more is mowed. If you’re paying for a one hour full body massage, you would assume the vast majority of that time is spent actually massaging you, not sitting or standing around talking to you.

But with lapdances or “dances” this doesn’t seem to be the case. Paying for a 30 minute dance doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll receive more time groping and grinding than a 15 minute dance. Since dancers can spend some of the time talking. Or doing different positions that don’t involve contact like standing or sitting next to you or air dancing. Or breathing on your ears. Technically that would be “contact” since their breath is reaching you.

Some clubs define them as “full contact lap dances” which doesn’t seem to change anything.

1) Who the fuck cares?

2) It varies regionally. Go to some clubs in your region and find out.

BTE, why don’t you write a research thesis on this? Why get trolled?

I wouldn't define lapdance because it is a gimmicky idea.

Contact strip clubs started at MBOT, and it meant lap sitting, front room, and often lots more.

You want the girl opening up to you so you can act upon her.

"How are they legally defined and how do clubs define them?"

Are you planning to sue a club if you end up getting a shitty lapdance?
Talk about overthinking this, man.

No but maybe in some situations management will refund you if it’s bad enough or do something about it.

The vagueness of the term lapdance allows for all kinds of things to occur in it which aren’t supposed to.

SJG what is MBOT?

Wait, are there legal definitions of SC activities now?

69 USC §420: A lap dance is considered "full contact" when the customer can tactilely identify the dancer's labia and/or clitoris being pressed into his tumescent organ and/or thigh.

MBOT = Michell Brothers O'Farrell Theater, started by Jim and Artie Mitchell in San Francisco, and the place contact strip clubs began.

And lap dancing was all front room and based on lap sitting. BUt how much more happened varied widely, but often it was better than what happens today when guys buy booth dances, and especially at Deja Vu.
