Whose line

Did you mean to say: "What can a stripper ask you that you couldn't ask them back?"

The term "sex worker" is so unsexy and repellant to me its one of the many reasons I got out of the lifestyle. I will go to my grave not understanding how this term is supposedly more respectful than prostitute. This term just ruins the whole thing for me. I know I focus too much on words but I really dislike this term.

" why are you in here tonight?" I ask this alot to try and find the best way to work a customer but being asked that back is not my favorite LOL it's almost alluding to the guy's preconceived notion that stripping is a bottom of the barrel struggle and not a career ( everyone's case is different but for me personally I see it as a career,) and that a good quality person wouldn't be a dancer, so I have to remember maybe they just ask that the same way I ask them and it's not as deep as that XD

Not so much a question as a common interaction, but:

Stripper approaches a customer, grabs his crotch and says "ooh, you've got a big one!". Customer gets a shit eating grin.

Customer approaches a stripper, grabs her crotch and says "ooh, you've got a big one!". Customer wakes up in the ER.

Dave_Anderson said "I will go to my grave not understanding how this term is supposedly more respectful than prostitute."

A) Because not all sex workers are prostitutes.

B) Because sex work is actual work.

I suggest you get over it. I'm pretty sure that you'll never see another vagina if you don't.

There's a fairly large chunk of guys in clubs who say all the words in their heads because they know that they can (often) get away with it without getting dick punched.

There's also some guys who go to strip clubs regularly because they get dick punched almost everywhere else.

"Are you married / living with anyone?"

So, what do you do for a living? Or… what do you do?

Often times I’ve wanted to answer that question with “you”!

Idk. This is more thinking than I like to do re: my interactions with strippers. I'm not especially sensitive, so she can ask pretty much whatever she wants. In fact it often opens the door for me to get to know her more in turn. Beyond that I'm neither grabby nor overly rude, but I'm not vibing with her then I just send her away.

It seems that a number of common strip club questions are likely one way.

A normal - question from a dancer (to a customer) might be:
Do you come here often?

That question would sound unusual if asked of a dancer.

Although, another way of a customer to ask a similar question would be:
I haven’t seen you here before. What days do you usually work?

Poor Dave Anderson. Finding the words sex worker offensive. It’s actually about as inoffensive as a characterization that can be found.

I think being asked too many questions by a dancer is annoying. Its what people who can't have normal conversations do to avoid awkward silence

I get asked "Are you married" a lot. A lot! I don't mind at all but I wouldn't even think of asking a dancer about her relationship status

From above:

"Not every interaction is "symmetrical". Just as an example, asking "Can I put my peepee in your bum?" to someone you pay for sex is probably normal but if they ask it it might be weird."

If there is a stripper I find attractive and "she" asks me that I am backing out the door and heading straight to the eye doctor!
