I've been working in strip clubs for the past 12 years now and I'll tell you what I've seen a definite decrease in the number of girls that are working in the strip clubs and in the quality of customer and the customers that are coming in I feel like there's a big gap between the customers that are 50 and up and then the customers that are between 20 and 35 let's say there's just not many of them coming in and there's not many girls that want to work in the club when they can try and work online or or do something where they don't have to have actual contact with anybody . I remember back in the day when the strip clubs were booming on a Saturday night or Friday night because they had some porn star whose headlining the club and it was people's only chance to see her live in in person and to see her besides just in a movie but now the internet and the personalization of all that kind of stuff and we're so intimate with everybody now there's nothing special about seeing a pornstar at a strip club everybody's a pornstar nowadays . I think in large cities like Miami and New York Denver those type of places there's always going to be a couple strip clubs just because that's something that you know you'll always have the need for that kind of entertainment but I think a lot of the strip clubs that are in smaller vacation areas or just smaller towns are becoming a thing in the past. Seeing some girls tits is not as exciting as it once was now you can see if it's everywhere you can see vaginas everywhere you can see anything anywhere and I think because we become so desensitized because of the Internet then unless you're at like a sex club or a club that's really pushing the limits it's just not as exciting or something that anybody would want to attend. And I don't think that girls want to work at these clubs because they don't really understand what they're supposed to be about these younger girls have no idea what customer services they have no idea about repeat customers and building a client base. I think that sex clubs are basically going to replace strip clubs I think that that's the wave of the future where you can go and couples are single people or you know anybody can go there and find a throuple or a married couple can go there and find a third, but as far as just straight strip clubs or titty clubs I think they're becoming something that's not going to be around in the next 10 years let's say I think sex clubs will be but unless you're in a major city I don't think that strip clubs are going to be found everywhere like they once were. Has anyone else noticed what a dip in business there has been and what a decline in the number of girls working and the variety of girls working and in the number of customers taking seats at the stage?. It makes me sad because it was such an amazing experience for me and I think it's a great place for younger guys to learn how to pick up women or talk to women I think it's a great place to go and have a good time and I think there's a need for for loneliness and dealing with you know people who aren't able to just find a relationship and who are lonely I think it's a great place to find somebody that you can connect with. And for a young woman with an opportunity to travel and make money it's amazing I just think it's a sad thing it'll be a sad day when there's no longer strip clubs in any little small town you find.
Are strip clubs becoming a thing of the past??

I think you are spot on with your analysis. Alot of younger women don't have good in-person communication skills in the age of social media and smart phones. Do you ever notice young people prefer to do everything by text than make an actual phone call? Many young women prefer to go the online content route. From the customer perspective, average dancer attractiveness has fallen a notch or two and dancer entitlement has gone up. You have dancers over counting songs and then on top of that expect to be tipped. People vote with their wallets. When clubs are dead, even on Friday and Saturday nights, there is no longer value for the customer. If I didn't have work travel, I would have exited this pastime by now.
I read all that shit.
As long as an NBA team is physically located close to the club in question everything should be fine.
Hey Skittles. To me being able to see the genuine article T&A right up close is always going to be way way way better than online. No question. At least where I live the clubs are still pretty busy.
sinclair + 1. Post covid has accelerated the trend towards more online vs personal interactions. People under 40 haven't known life without the internet. When I've called a company specifically asking to speak with a representative (sometimes more than twice), a f#cking bot keeps asking me why I'm calling. (Translation- we at Company X are determined to keep you from talking with a live person and having a robot address your issue instead.) So. as younger folk who prefer texting over talking increasingly outnumber the Boomers and Xers, the club customer base of 2006, 2016 are not as numerous in 2026. Online interaction has its place, I much prefer in person interaction in the clubs. But as the customer service model shows that more people fully embrace non personal interactions, the strip club decline that OP pointed out is sure to follow.
Great analysis. I agree with OP on all points, but punctuation and paragraph structure seem to have gone away as well.
The availability of online porn is a much bigger issue than only fans. And social media is killing the young guys from developing interpersonal skills. And the movement away from alcohol consumption by gen xyz’ers keeps people from making poor decisions that strip clubs often count on for business. The likelihood that our way of life and our set of values (poor as they might be) survive one more generation is rapidly slipping away. Pretty sure I won’t mind missing this next iteration.
Agree with 623, alcohol consumption is the lifeblood of traditional strip clubs, and it’s plummeting among younger guys. As drinking PLs start drifting away, not even charging $10 for a Diet Coke or sparkling water will keep clubs alive.

Wow, it's been 15 minutes since the last thread about strip clubs declining. I almost forgot!
Aren’t sex clubs just venues for swingers? I’m trying to understand.
But yeah, that’s not a good sign if this type of post is being made in Florida in March.
@ThePuddyTat Well, this is a site to discuss strip clubs, and if there were never any potentially redundant or overlapping topics, it might not be very easy to keep the discussion of clubs alive! I'm just happy to see anyone trying to keep the club discussions active, and even if not every topic can be completely new, sometimes there's a unique take on an old topic... 😊
I’m fine if clip joints (Glass Slipper or worse) and non-contact (unless centerfolds type looks) places go away.
It’s only bad if Pompano, Philly, Dallas, Seattle etc go away.
Back before World War II, there were clubs with taxi dancers ( en.wikipedia.org ). Which, if my only options were a taxi dance, and a topless/nude air dance, I'd pick the taxi dance. Yet somehow taxi dancing was supplanted by topless stage dancing. Since sex is older than the human race, you'd think what people get off on would stay pretty consistent. But it doesn't. Maybe it's like trying to understand why bowling peaked in the 1970s.
Except every dancer I know who told me she does content online tells me it is incredibly difficult to maintain an online presence that continuously gets guys to buy her content. She has to spend countless hours making new content and managing her subscription base to the point it is easier for her to come into the club and develop a bunch of regulars for cash, which is unreported income. Seems to me that most of these dancers prefer the club business model Over only fans.
