Naming names in an all extras place
623
Since 1963 ...
I am all for not naming a girl in a standard club when she is breaking rules by giving you an elicit hj or bj or more BUT in a club where every dancer in the place puts out, I want to know who gives the best service and what the price points are for special treatment. LE doesn’t need unverifiable intel using already made up stage names on which girl in a club like Follies was or Detroits Bogarts Lounge is. If the club is an all extras place LE is already very aware of what’s going on and they are choosing to let it be.
Management is more of an issue if a girl is outted by name or description in a non extras club. There are a few places where club management follows online media and will punish behavior even thou it’s possibly not even true. In an all extras place management is fully aware of who their best earners are and they would like to have more of them.

We think that managers know extras are common in known extras clubs - but what if we are incorrect? What if a manager reads a review that names a dancer - and she gets fired? I don’t want to take that chance.
What about those idiots who read a review that names a dancer, and provides prices and acts - and this fool goes to the club tells the dancer JoeBlow123 from TUSCL got a BBBJCIM for $125 - and he’s not paying more - or he will tell the manager?
There is little good to come from naming names and acts - and I won’t do it.
Also, what a dancer does for you might not match what she does for other guys (and that's her choice). Think about this from the dancer's POV. Better yet, try this... get some extras from a dancer and then tell her that you're going to write an online review where you name her and everything she just did. Report back to us regarding her reaction and how many stitches you needed as a result.
Just be happy with what you got, but don't spell it out in granular detail in the review, and definitely don't use names. If you want to get more details, then approach the reviewer via PM and let them decide if they want to share more.

[1] It used to be that all reviews were blocked unless you were VIP. That's not true anymore. Any user can access a few reviews per day. All you need is a profile here. So, it's incredibly easy for managers, dancers, etc., to snoop on each other via the reviews.
[2] This actually happened in Providence, RI, when Cheaters got busted for the last time. We got to watch incredibly explicit reviews (with blacked out bits) for several of the clubs scroll across the screen on the evening news. It wasn't great.
Post-Covid things have changed things after a lot of the old guard of dancers has retired and a lot of us remaining are more…idk for lack of a better term more “woke?” And by woke, I mean it’s become less acceptable to vilify extras and full service sex work. Dancers used to commonly make “extras girls are nasty and ruining the industry” rants for a long time and the replies could all be unanimous circle jerk agreeing but it’s become more common in the past 2-3 years for there to be a LOT more backlash if anybody uses shaming language now.
Times are changing, BUT I don’t think the viewpoints of how strippers who post on social media platforms to each other have quite made it to every dancer actually working in a titty bar.
To be honest, if some dancer complained about getting outed in
How about a little discretion or maybe a kick in the nuts.
In one instance, how we found out about this is that the dancer IDed the guy who wrote the explicit review and cut him off from all future services. She also let the other dancers in the club know what he did. So, he had to go find another club (at least for a while). Anyway, the reviewer posted an angry "Fuck you to the guy who did this" discussion. The response from most guys here was "Hey, you made your bed, etc., etc., etc." That was the correct response.
So, if respecting a dancer's privacy isn't a thing that motivates you, then there's also a chance that it will affect you directly, and not in a good way.
Speaking of clubs that tend to attract reviewers that do that, shout out to the dancer once who wrote up a tome once that extras are unacceptable anywhere, no matter what club one works at. But then on the very same day posted elsewhere praising Club Desire as an amazing club to work at.
If the lessening taboos makes its way to congress and full service sex work is completely legal, then naming specific acts may not be a big deal. But until then…there is a whole can of worms that naming extras girls can cause, even in clubs that are known for that.
Others have covered reasons why its potentially harmful, I'll chime in to say why its potentially useless. YMMV. Around here at least, what a girl is willing to do with you is largely dependent on how she feels about you, her mood that day, her financial situation, the alignment of the planets and stars, the phase of the moon, etc. I don't make a habit of it, but I recently exchanged some of that type of info via PM and the member who gave me the info had a very different experience than I did.
There's also the matter of perspective and preferences. We know opinions vary wildly on what constitutes hot, I'm quite sure the same is true of what we like to do. Just cause one customer found the girl to be fantastic, doesn't mean the next one will.
And finally, I'll throw out the whole "do unto others" thing. Would you want them posting reviews online with your physical description, notes about your tattoo's and distinguishing features, etc, and talking about what you did or didn't do, what you asked for, how much you paid, etc? Karma's an unrelenting bitch with an eternal memory.
I think even if she openly offers to you, that may not be the case with everyone trying to get in on the action.
When I first started using TUSCL the reviews got a lot deeper into specifics and names, but there was already a trend away from that. If you look back further than that, it was even more common to name dancers, talk about exactly what they did, and include prices. I think that some of the users here with a longer history are accustomed to seeing and posting more sordid details.
However there is one exception that most of us agree on: If the dancer is clearly a ROB, I will use her stage name as a public service warning to other customers.
If I were a boyfriend or husband, I may live in denial world and not want to read about my wife swallowing your cum while your brother-in-law was pounding her in the ass.
Elsewhere, Ishmael had a great thread on why not to connect girls by name to specific extras. Legal trouble wasn't even the biggest part of the argument, it was how it affects the dancer's relationship with the other girls, management, and customers (the latter potentially becoming dangerous).
There's no right answer, but there are infinite subjective answers that can be endlessly debated (as we've seen). It's also where a lot of PLs like to negotiate against any potential backlash along the lines of "Around here a CBJ isn't considered an extra!"
So, here's what I do (and anyone can feel free to poke holes in this approach). If the club is known for extras or high mileage, I note that in the review (but I always give a YMMV caveat). If I spend time with a particular dancer, I'll note who it is and then keep in very general. Along the lines of, "We went to VIP and had a great time." Or, "I did a few lap dances with her and decided that she wasn't for me."
[And, I'll quickly note that if I say I had a great time with a dancer, that doesn't automatically mean that I got extras. There are dancers that are a lot of fun for me but have clear and solid limits.]
In terms of guys complaining about how that doesn't help them, I think that's horseshit. You can go to the club and talk to the dancer. It's been said here a million times (and it remains true) that you can just ask dancers for what you want and it won't shock them or get you thrown out of the club. They will tell you what's available and what isn't. At that point, the customer can either go for it or take a pass.
Guys need to get over this idea that going to a strip club is like ordering an incredibly expensive sandwich at Subway.
Just because I said that linking names in all extras clubs is OK with me does not mean I would do that, I think its classless and in 200+ reviews I don't think you will find any examples of me doing that unless the girl is a complete ROB. Maybe if she works in Germany or Tijuana but even then I doubt it.
I just don't think it is a good enough reason to reject a review.
If a new dancer approaches me with "I'll blow you for $xx" I think she has already taken the first step in that being public knowledge. So I would not have any trouble if that knowledge became a bit more public. It might also help me choose a club in a strange town if I had a bit of a price list as a starting place. Reviewers who report "left happy for $500" or "had a good time for $300" are not providing any information. We all know there are plenty of PLs that will spend a grand and bring roses the next night for the hint of a tug job.
As far as other PLs arriving with review in hand saying "I want what Bill got", I don't know a dancer who has danced for more than a week who doesn't get this anyways. And any dancers who have been around for anytime at all will says "Bill is a liar and you need to go fuck yourself". Again, we are talking about all extras clubs here.
Knowing who does the best whatever and if the going rate is $500 or $100 is information I can use when I have one or two nights in a city. Plus I don't then have to visit 4 other clubs to find the overachievers.
I don't think we're ignoring that. You can share a lot of information without connecting dancers to extras. And reviews that avoid doing that are still useful to PLs (in my opinion).
"I just don't think it is a good enough reason to reject a review."
We disagree on this. I'll always reject a review that connects a dancer by name to extras. Even in notorious extra clubs. Others might disagree with me, but that's my stance.
"If a new dancer approaches me with 'I'll blow you for $xx' I think she has already taken the first step in that being public knowledge."
If she announces that from the stage, then I agree. If she says that to you at the bar in a private conversation, then I disagree. But really, whether or not I agree is irrelevant. It's the dancer who has more at stake. So, ask the dancer if you can put it in an online review along with her name. Let us know how that works out...
"It might also help me choose a club in a strange town if I had a bit of a price list as a starting place. Reviewers who report "left happy for $500" or "had a good time for $300" are not providing any information"
I'm less bothered by this, but I still won't do it. There's a place in the review where the customer can put down the range for what they spent. You can also simply note "The dancers here are expensive." or state that a particular dancer charges premium prices. I don't like posting dollar amounts especially when connecting them to dancers. It paints them into a corner potentially.
"Knowing who does the best whatever and if the going rate is $500 or $100 is information I can use when I have one or two nights in a city."
You've been here for 20 years and posted over 200 reviews. I suspect that if you reach out to a reviewer via PM and ask for a little more information, you'll probably get it. Take advantage of the perks offered by your considerable seniority.
So, yeah, I think it's safe to say that we disagree somewhat here, and that's fine. We're both going to do what we do.
and prostitution includes anything that gets you off. Not just sex.
OK, genius, since the site has become much tamer given the PC policing why wasn’t it shut down long ago when it was so much more raunchy. I would think the inclusion of a section for personal ads exposes the site to critics far more than made up reviews with made up names by anonymous users.
All I’m saying is that the site doesn’t need to be so neutered simply because there’s a few who are too politically correct to be completely honest in reviews. Probably fearful that the blow job queen will have her feelings hurt.
🗣️ BE A REAL MAN
Its more likely that dancers know real first names than the reverse...
CMI says extras are "subjective", "there's no right answer", etc. Vague, but relevant to my point.
Tetra says extras are "any attempt to generate orgasm that the law might frown upon." Not surprising coming from a seasoned PL.
Icee says extras are "anything entailing more than the legal definition of a lap dance". Unsurprising from a woke wannbe pimp whose main hobby is shit stirring on a strip club board.
Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But if we were to apply these standards to the rule, we would be potentially withholding names on any act ranging from violating the 3-foot rule (icee), to handjobs (tetra), to anything/nothing (cmi).
Like obscenity, I guess you know it when you see it. If "extras" are not definable, then a rule about connecting extras isn't super useful.
Part of the issue, and it's not limited to TUSCL, is the tendency of people to want to have a shorthand for everything. Not every possible thing that might be seen at the club has to have a mutually exclusive label attached to it. I don't really concern myself with which act goes in the extras bin or not. At a certain club in Phoenix (before the dark times) every dancer I took for a dance had her hand in my pants by the second song. Nothing "extra" paid. It's just what they did without being asked. And that was within the first hour on my first and only visit to the club.
Obviously it wasn't because of me being some super customer that it happened. I had a pulse, a hard-on, and a fistful of dollars. And for one bitchy, yet beautiful, dancer I had a few dollars more. But none of that went in my review. Plus Chili Palmer told me to get my eyes checked because my idea of a 10 wasn't his lol...If I think putting whatever detail next to a dancer's name might get her jammed up at work, I don't write it.
Not naming dancers in any review is a good practice.

Incidentally, I think 623’s question is a good one. What passes for an acceptable review is a sliding scale for me based on the type of club. Personally, I wouldn’t name names, but what I write and what I approve in reviews of extras clubs/cities is a lot more detailed. There’s a club I’ve been to that gets called out on here as a known non-extras club. People write that it’s impossible to get extras. They are 100% wrong about the frequency and the extent of what’s available. I’d never correct them.
We definitely don't want the world knowing our business and for how much that businesses transaction cost. I haven't met a single extras dancer who has enjoyed being named on here.
In the review guidelines there is only this on the topic: "Be honest. You can go into explicit detail of the private dances. Just be careful with names if you think it may get someone in trouble."
There's a lot of room for interpretation in there, starting with them being 'guidelines' and not 'rules' or 'requirements'. And also there's the reality that a lot of customers don't actually think it could get a dancer in trouble. Quite the opposite, they believe that they're helping the dancer.
I really would like to see Founder put a large warning in red or bold black letters to leave dancer names out from now on on the page where reviews are written. Or have it as a checkbox the reviewer HAS to check before the review can be put up for peer voting.
Dancers don't like this site because of trolls, SJG and a few others, and being named in reviews. This is a often talked about in private dancers groups on various websites.
🎶Well we’re living here in Allentown, do do do doooo,
And they're closing all the factories down
Out in Bethlehem they're killing time
Filling out forms
Standing in line
Well our fathers fought the Second World War
Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore
Met our mothers in the USO
Asked them to dance
Danced with them slow
And we're living here in Allentown
But the restlessness was handed down
And it's getting very hard to staaaaaay
Well we're waiting here in Allentown
For the Pennsylvania we never found
For the promises our teachers gave
If we worked hard
If we behaved
So the graduations hang on the wall
But they never really helped us at all
No they never taught us what was real
Iron and coke
And chromium steel
And we're waiting here in Allentown
But they've taken all the coal from the ground
And the union people crawled away
Every child had a pretty good shot
To get at least as far as their old man got
But something happened on the way to that place
They threw an American flag in our faaaaaaacceeee
Well I'm living here in Allentown
And it's hard to keep a good man down
But I won't be getting up todaaaaaaaay
And it's getting very hard to stay
And we're living here in Allentown 🎶
And then I splooged all over her boobs. See that right there is fine, no harm no foul. Keeps everyone off our scent.
And, to a limit, I'm sympathetic to 623's argument that if you're in a town for a night and you have four potential clubs, then a more detailed review increases the chances of going to a good club within that limited time frame. I think that the bridge a lot of users still need to cross is understanding that connecting names to extras has the real potential to affect a person's employment and quality of life, and not in a good way.
That said, he has intervened in limited, extreme circumstances. I remember when a user created 5 or so accounts and got a bunch of fake, satire reviews approved. I think the theme was that they were robbing the club? Founder banned those accounts pretty quickly, presumably because they compromised the integrity of the reviews, which he’s always said is the foundation of the site. He banned the guy who posted the shit about infecting dancers with HIV. He sterilized the idiotic thread that doxxed juice by linking his real life obituary. Most relevant to this discussion, I mistakenly approved a review I meant to reject by hitting the wrong button. It was clear from my comment that I meant to reject as I said something like “remove the name of the girl who did ______ extra and I’ll approve.” My vote was the tiebreaker in a 4-3 approval. I pm’ed founder about my mistake and he pretty quickly edited the review to remove the dancer’s name.
This is on us to fix and only bring in founder in extreme circumstances.
No, actually, he didn't (unless we're talking about different guys). But I believe you got everything else correct.
In the second place my original question was basically “why did we start rejecting reviews strictly because they include names or explicit details?”
The answer I got was that the site is starting to get “woke” or influenced by political correctness. Maybe that is a good thing IDK. Makes it less useful thou.
I will continue NOT naming dancers in my reviews, as I have always done. Mostly cause I don’t usually remember names from clubs anyways. Because like I said. They are all made up names.
I will also continue to NOT reject a review (for an already known extras place) just because it has a name in it or it is explicit, as long as it has some useful info. News flash; a lot of the explicit stuff is made up also.
I don't think the answer you got was that the site is getting "woke" or PC. The answer you got is that connecting dancers by name to extras can have negative consequences for the dancer even in places known for providing extras. Not wanting to punish dancers for the fun we have isn't "woke".
No one can control how you judge reviews. But you came here looking for the reasoning on this, and you got it. And, I'll add that you got it from some of the absolutely least woke or PC people on the site.
I do think there is far more danger to a girls safety or reputation if cousin Felix comes thru the club door unexpectedly. Felix knows her real name and probably her grandma too. But she took that chance when she started dancing.
There are nut jobs everywhere and every dancer has learned to deal with them, reviews aren’t going to noticeably move the needle on how many times in a week they get approached by wackos. Again part of the territory of being a dancer.
Dancers are not fragile little flowers that need protected and our little community of PLs doesn’t have the influence or size that many posters here seem to think it has.
That's fair right
That makes sense.
At least you made me smile.
Please quote a real life example or two of how a review created these issues. If your in a profession that has a boss (pimp or manager) that will react to a made up online review badly I would say that scary situation is not because of a review. I can quote examples of dancers that get more business by being mentioned in a review, not a lot more but some.
There is far, far more privacy risk issues presented by the potential of having someone walk thru the club door who knows you in real life than someone writing about your FAKE name in a quite possibly FAKE review. As far as security, if there wasn't already inherent danger I might agree, but paying a bouncer to walk you to your car already indicates that the chosen job comes with built in risk, with or without reviews.
I don't want to drag the thread out, but this not until universally true. Your core point was made without having to bring in other angles. More than one club where I've been a regular multiple girls went by their real names. My third ATF just brought out her license one day and asked me what I thought of her photo, and her social media all still has her full name on it.
If it was "today" and not over a decade ago would that still be the case? That's open for debate. But some dancers and staff are still pretty quick to share their real names, and in a couple of clubs I've forgotten a dancer or waitress stage name because I don't use it.
Then there's the social fumble. At a club where I was talking with a dancer on her first day, some other random dancer sat down at the table to check on how and called said her real multiple times. After the oblivious one walked off I said something about pretending I didn't hear that, and she just shrugged it off and said it was ok to use her real name. Didn't seem staged. I can usually spot that.
