AITM (am I the misogynist) for wondering why I should ever be asked this question at the SC? It happened most recently the other day in an extras club with a dancer with whom I have enjoyed CFS on previous occasions. In her case, she apologized and explained that she had spaced out on transferring condoms from one purse to the other. That's ok. Stuff like that happens.
However, it has happened a number of times in the past with other dancers (always on a first meeting) where no such explanation was offered. I've considered that it might just be a gracious way of bowing out of FS, but, on a couple of those occasions the dancers ducked out of VIP and wrassled one up from their coworkers, and off to the races we went. Also, on rare occasions I have been asked the question and actually had one on my person, and the festivities proceeded.
Condoms are a particularly radioactive form of contraband that I can't afford to have inadvertently turn up on my person at home. I'm sure I'm far from the only SC patron in that boat. Unless you can find one of those gas station restroom vending machines (not even sure I'd trust what comes out of those) you've got to buy a 3-pack minimum, and, since the majority of extras-inclined dancers do keep them on hand, that means three (or at least two) condoms that will have to disappear, unused, before I get home. Typically, I'll make a feeble attempt to pay things forward by leaving them on a prominent horizontal surface in a public place where, hopefully some condom-deprived person will see them and snatch them up.
While the condoms protect both of us, I don't think it is sexist to expect the extras-oriented dancer to be equipped with them, since having them on hand should make a difference in their income. When I take my car to the shop, I would be taken aback if the mechanic asked if I had a spanner on me, just as I would if the barber asked if I had scissors.


I get your point, but keep in mind that normal business expectations don't necessarily apply in a strip club.
In the end, she is there to make money and you are the one spending money. Just like a lot of girls expect you to pay for the motel if you meet otc, a lot of girls expect you to cover the cheap cost of the condom. A three pack of condoms per visit to the club probably doesn't add up to much for you over the course of a year, especially compared to what you spend in the club.
Also, as much as condoms are contraband that can cause you serious grief if found at home, they can also cause the girls grief in the unlikely event of a raid by the local LEOs.
