Strip club knowledge
I would guess a lot of the commenters here are frequent strip club goers who know much more about strip clubs than the average visitor. What would be something you know about strip clubs that most people who visit them don't?
One thing I know is how to rank all the strip clubs here in Indianapolis by the attractiveness of the strippers and the popularity of the club with people who have money to spend. A number of local clubs are just hang out joints for non-spenders and therefore attract low quality girls. The number of strip club reviews here pretty much indicates which clubs are popular with spending customers. However, some have a lot of reviews but not many recent reviews, which indicates a decline. Jiggles and Jaguars here are on the decline while the Pony and Red Garter now surpass them.

last commentThanks to TUSCL I know where all the good strip clubs are. That’s a wealth of knowledge just right there.
Most here understand how the majority of strip clubs are set up financially regarding the relationship between the club and the dancers. In most clubs the dancers pay the club, not vice versa as in most occupations and as is assumed by many. Most casual and rookie patrons dont understand this. In NJ even the casual hangout spots have smoking hot Brazilians lol
Although some strippers are employees, a lot still are contractors. They pay stage fees, tip out the DJ, bouncers and manager every shift. And at most clubs stage tips aren't enough to even make house fees, selling dances is where they actually make money.
I think a lot of casual club goers assume the girls are glorified go-go dancers paid to get naked on stage and the stage tips are gravy.
Elementary school knowledge of tuscl is seeing that everything is driven by money. Middle or high school knowledge is seeing that while the above is true, every customer and girl is an individual and makes their own decisions. College or grad school knowledge is wallanon.
Everything. The average clubber knows jack shit about the psychology or economics, let alone having self-control in the club.
"I think she really likes me!"
Lulz
Angry old men like SkiDumb are looking for dancers to cater to their every whim w/out asking and can’t be told no.
Really, it’s an evolving fluid situation that you can’t expect consistent outcomes on any trip no matter what system you employ. Have to go with the flow. Like John candy says in planes trains and’s automobiles like a twig on the shoulder of a babbling brook.
Yes, your stripper is after your money, but I'm convinced that most strippers get more out of the job than that. 1. Human contact. They get used to the feel of skin on skin and miss if it's gone. This may or may not be a sexual thing. 2. Admiration. They're flattered that most every guy in the place thinks they're hot and wants to fuck them. Most seem to be genuinely disappointed if you don't get immediately hard when they're giving you a lap dance. 3. A lot of strippers are hyper sexual. I know one who will find a rhythm on your hard dick (over your pants) and try to come before the lap dance is over. This is actually only so-so stimulating for the guy, so she really is doing it for her own satisfaction, not for more money from you.
Any girls out there, am I right?
GordeiBoi's "Decade Plus Regular" sums things up well, but it shouldn't take a decade to figure that out. Maybe 6 months to a year, or they're never going to get it, and they and the dancers they see will be that much more miserable because of it
Most newbies need to realize that one customer's experience with a stripper can be vastly different than another customer's experience with the same stripper. In other words, YMMV.
I was past fifty when I started going to strip clubs so I never fell into the "I think she really likes me" error. I did originally think that if I had regulars I would get better treatment. I found, though, that long time regulars started acting like a wife. By that I mean they would be moody and a little bad tempered sometimes. I decided I do not really want a strip club wife. I like that happy look a stripper gets on her face when she finds out for the first time a new customer is interested in her.
Not to eat anything that falls on the floor
^excellent and effective strategy
"I think she really likes me!"
you mean she doesn't?
My girls see me with some of the other girls...
@Gordie, that's how I roll. Never let yourself me a kept man; she sure isn't being faithful to you. If no variety, why club?
@Jascoi, I'm sure everyone here has a funny story of a dork friend catching feelings. Most clubbers are fucking clueless.
A few of the most important things I have learned:
How many of these girls will do OTC under the right circumstances (money is right, you're easy to deal with, things are slow in the club, etc.). Which makes sense given that they are already removing their clothes and rubbing on guys for money. It's still a leap from that to full blown sex for the non-extras girls, but far less of a leap than it would be for the checkout girl at your local supermarket, lol.
The value of being approachable and easy to talk to. Part of this involves being comfortable in your own skin inside a strip club. Some guys can do that and others can't. IME giving off good energy also feeds into 1 above.
The value of not being concerned about conflict avoidance. As important as being approachable to the ones you like is learning to move along the ones you don't. Looking a girl straight in the eye and saying NO is an important skill to develop. Appearing weak or squishy, OTOH, is a good way to encourage aggressive girls to control your experience for you.
Being penny conscious, pound foolish, is a losing strategy. Unless you're just going to a club for a few lappers, like those guys who are able to prematurely ejaculate in their own pants just from a little friction, being stingy will backfire in so many ways that matter. If your clubbing budget doesn't include money to buy a few drinks for one or two dancers, tip the bartender well (which will often come back to you anyway with a better drink pour) and throw a few 20s to your favorite dancer in tips (stage or barside), then just do something else instead. A little love can go a long way in too many ways to easily discuss. 10 Years ago I would never have needed to post this, but it's insane how much grousing this new generation of dudes does over this simple stuff, to their detriment I might add.
^Rick's biggest strip club inside knowledge is "The System."
Now now Gam, I don't want to give away ALL my secrets. Imagine if everyone started showing up to the clubs in white polyester suits - it would be bedlam! 😉
always know where your wallet is.
^^How come strip clubs don't have white linen nights? Especially in Florida?
^ Your white linen suit has a brown stripe down the back of the pants
Another thing I learned over the years of going to strip clubs is don't go looking for some stripper who has disappeared. Quite often they have moved to another city or dropped out of stripping completely, in which case they often want to leave their stripping days behind them and move on with their life. I do sometimes run into an old regular at another club or back at their old club and we are both happy to see each other. I would not say all strippers are the same but there are plenty of fish in the strip club ocean and I can find new girls I like when the old ones vanish.
