I read one time that by looking at transmission rates of diseases spread by sexual contact scientists can estimate how many sexual partners people have. What they found is that both men and women lie when it comes to sex. Men exaggerate their number of sexual partners while women do the opposite and say they have fewer sex partners than they really do. If women actually had the number of sex partners they say do then the percentage of them with an std would be lower than it actually is.

Some things just seem to fall out of fashion. When I was a child fifty-five years ago people whistling songs seemed to be common, but it's been years since I've heard a person whistling. Other things that were more common back then were people belonging to bowling leagues, cigarette smoking, kite flying, men wearing hats, stamp collecting as a hobby, certain games like mah-jongg or bridge, vegetable gardening and men opening doors for women. When I watch old movies, I'll sometimes notice something that I remember being common when I was child but now no longer is.

I had the catalytic converter stolen off my car several months back. The guy who put a new one on told me that he used to replace three or four a year here in Indiana but now it is more like three or four a month. It's becoming a nationwide problem. If the problem continues to increase at some point car manufacturers will start adding something like plates or cables to prevent theft. I never had one stolen previously but the night I did my car was parked in a poorly lit area away from my apartment building that I parked in only because I came home late from a strip club when there were no parking spots left in front of the building.

The dancers buying expensive items are usually the ones with short time horizons. I've seen dancers do things like taking Florida vacations and then two weeks later not having money to pay the rent. Some dancers do drugs. No one needs drugs and they cause long term harm in users, so any money spent on them is money wasted. People have a right, though, to waste their own money. I've known some dancers who are quite into saving. One 30-year-old dancer told me she bought a house with the money she saved from ten years of stripping. On the other hand, I knew another one making a hundred thousand dollars a year who spent it all and later ended up homeless. Probably there are more dancers who don't save enough due to overestimating how long their peak earning years will last.

One time an angry looking stripper was walking by my table while I was sitting there and said, "this isn't a free show". I then replied that I paid to get in. A little later I did a table dance with another stripper and then gave her a couple dollars. The angry looking stripper walked by again and said "congratulations, you spent a dollar". Then the angry looking stripper did a table dance with the guy at the table next to me. As she was walking off, I said "congratulations, you made a dollar". She then looked even angrier and said, "listen you, I make a thousand dollars a night here". I then laughed at her and said, "sure you do". She then punched me in the face.

The Democrats have gone from attacking Trump to attacking Putin. Instead of Orange Man Bad, it's now Russian Man Bad.

BigThirdEye, most strippers I've known have said it is a little difficult to find guys who will go along with their girlfriend stripping. I've had several regulars leave stripping when they moved in with a guy, at least partly because he didn't want them to keep stripping. On the other hand, girls who can make a living out of stripping are usually above average in looks and personality. Girls like that can usually get a boyfriend if they want one. I've known very few strippers over the years who were in long term marriages. I think they save that for after their stripping days are over. They tend to come from more working or lower middle-class backgrounds and their dating and mating habits tend to reflect the background they come from. There are a number of single mom types among strippers but that is now common among many young women. There is more societal acceptance now of women having children outside of a marriage than there was sixty years ago. When I was child in 1960 I had an older unmarried female cousin who got pregnant and was sent to another city to have the child and put it up for adoption and hardly anyone knew about it because it was hushed up. That would seldom happen now.

I would put Gabrielle Anwar, not on the list, over any of those in her prime. When she played Fiona in the tv series "Burn Notice" she was in her thirties and past her prime, but she still looked good even then.

Strippers are not part of a separate species. They want the same things other human females want.

I've had three dancers tell me guys will pay them for a dinner date. When they did that, I had a feeling they were kind of bragging about it. That means it is unusual enough that most dancers don't get those offers and only a minority of strippers with the right combination of looks and personality manage it. I've had a number of dancers show an interest in doing an unpaid dinner date. This is usually a situation where they see going to dinner as a way to maintain the interest of a regular or get a new regular. I've even had a dancer tell me she saw that as part of her job. The dancers who wanted to have dinner with me for free were only interested as long as I was their strip club regular. Once they left stripping, they showed no further interest in going out to dinner with me. I don't even maintain contact with any of my former regulars because to them I'm just another old guy they are not interested in now.

The lockdown, mask and mandatory vaccine proponents pretty much gave up in February after the U.S. had record breaking eight hundred thousand a day case rates in January. There was a tipping point where the majority of the public realized that those interventions were ineffective in stopping the spread of the disease, that almost everyone was going to get this disease eventually, and the focus should just be on making sure old people at high risk of death get vaccinated. After that, people moved on to arguing about other things like the Ukraine-Russia conflict or the Will Smith-Chris Rock incident.

"Customer stories written about dancer interactions like they're writing Harlequin romance novels." I'm afraid I'm a little guilty of that. I have a couple friends who like hearing my strip club stories but I understand most of the members here are looking for tips to increase their success rate in finding sexual activities. I try to keep my reviews from turning into my strip club diary but don't always succeed. I've always had a rule not to do anything illegal. The only exception was when I smoked marijuana with a girl when I was twenty at a Rolling Stones concert 45 years ago. I like having long term relationships with people. I've always lived in the same city, worked at the same place and kept my old school friends. I'm mostly looking for regulars in strip clubs, so most of my clubbing is local. I would just get a girlfriend, but I like the freedom of living alone and doing what I like when I feel like it. I like the physical contact with the strippers, as long as it's legal. A sensual lap dance is fine. I also like talking to the girls. If other guys are more interested in sexual activities, there's nothing wrong with that. I'd like to see all forms of commercial sex in this country legalized but at the same time kept somewhat discreet. No hookers standing on the corner in front of the elementary school.

Women hope the men will change after getting married and men hope the women will stay the same after getting married. They both end up disappointed.

When you say you should select the one you intend to be waking up in the mornings with, I think that would be difficult to do even if you wanted to. I had a couple situations when I was younger where I had sex with someone very early in the relationship and found out later being in the relationship was a big mistake. It really takes a while to get to know someone. In a strip club setting you have very limited information to work with. Most of the time in a strip club if the girl is friendly to me and pretty that's enough for me. I've had a few long-term regulars I think I would like to have a relationship with if I was thirty years younger but it's unlikely I can talk someone half my age into that. Most of my regulars I've eventually learned had serious problems with poor judgement in their personal lives. I could always get someone to wake up with me by paying her to spend the night but I decided to rule out sex for money exchanges outside the club as something I'm not interested in.

I don't have anywhere I want to visit. I did a lot of traveling when I was young and when I think now of going somewhere I get a feeling of "been there done that". I think if I revisited some of the places I went when I was young, I would be disappointed and find it depressing. I went to California in 1969 to visit an aunt and uncle and some cousins. One of those cousins recently told me the California I visited is gone and things are much worse there now. There are homeless people all over the place, crowded highways, and lots of crime. I went to Detroit in 1965. I would hate to see what happened to that city after over 50 years of bad local government. Even the cities that haven't declined have lost a lot of their local character. Indianapolis where I live sure has. Every city now has the same chain restaurants and stores, the same pro sports teams and the colorful regional accents and habits of the people have faded away since they are all exposed to the same national mass media.

As others said, you have to expect high pressure sales tactics from the girls. There are some things, though, the club management could do to make a strip club visit a little more pleasant. For example, last time I went to a club two girls were after my company before I had even gotten in the club. I was trying to pay to get in and show my ID while fending them off at the same time. In a situation like this, some clubs have set up rules saying the customer has to sit down before he can be approached. The girls aggressively compete with each other but the club itself has an interest in not making customer visits so overly unpleasant it drives them away permanently. Only a small subset of guys who go to strip clubs probably ever turn it into a regular hobby. I went when I was 22, 37 and 52. It wasn't until my third trip at 52 that I got hooked on it and became a regular customer.

Rather than a gaffe, the Russian regime change comment from Biden may have been a sudden emotional outburst. Friday, Russia pegged the ruble to gold. They have announced that from now on Russian gas will be sold for rubles or gold. Germany is furious and demanded Russia honor contracts where they said they would sell their gas for dollars. Russia said, no, they aren't going to do that. Biden is angry too. This is going to drive up the value of the ruble and gold and drive down the value of the dollar. After his outburst, cooler heads in his administration tried to walk back his comment because it implies we are about to start World War III to get rid of Putin.

You don't need to be really good at talking to women to get a girlfriend. If she likes you, she'll overlook that you aren't good at that. Most guys can't get a girlfriend because they aim too high and try to date someone out of their league. Visits to strip clubs are more for guys who don't currently want to be in a relationship or want a little variety and want to spend some time with females they are not a relationship with. I had girlfriends when I was younger but I'm happy now with the freedom that comes with the single life. I like women, though, and strip clubs give me a chance to spend a little time with them.

This hasn't happened to me very often over the years and I have been a little surprised by that. If one stripper insults another stripper when she is not around, it could get back to the stripper being insulted and there could be retaliation. For this reason, I think most strippers have declared a truce with each other and don't engage in this sort of thing.

Whether the lockdowns, mask mandates and vaccine mandates were ever a good idea, this is no longer the case. Normally this type of virus mutates in a direction where it becomes milder and more transmissible. If it didn't, lots of people would still be dying from the 1918 Spanish flu, 1957 Asian flu and 1968 Hong Kong flu. The rationale for these measures were that the disease was dangerous and they would stop the spread of the disease. The huge case numbers last winter showed this wasn't true. Almost everyone is going to eventually get this and we will have to learn to live with it. Though they don't stop the spread of the disease, the vaccines do appear to provide a personal benefit by reducing deaths among older people. We should have put more focus on people in high risk categories like the elderly, getting them vaccinated and developing early home treatment programs to help keep them out of the hospital. Since the vaccines provide a personal benefit, it should be a personal decision on whether or not to get them. People should have a right to decide what they are going to do with their own bodies and everyone should be free here to do a risk-benefit analysis involving their own personal situation.

This club is the former Classy Chassy. It was one of three clubs, the other two being Harem House and Babes, that were owned by the same person. All three were poorly run for years and then the Covid lockdowns came along. They were unable to survive the lockdowns and then sold. Harem House became Jaguars and Babes became Jiggles. When it was Classy Chassy, I went there sometimes but have not been down there since it changed owners. What little I have heard about it is that it is now a black club. Many of the clubs here, both black and nonblack clubs, have become increasingly unsafe in recent years. Popular culture now presents celebrities who think violence is the answer to personal slights, such as seen at the Oscars last night, to young people as role models to emulate.

The most important issue right now is the out-of-control government spending and money printing to pay for that out-of-control government spending. The money printing is leading to increasingly high levels of inflation which is slowly impoverishing the average American family. Politicians want a distraction to take the focus off that because their political supporters who helped to get them elected receive the money being printed up while everyone else has to suffer from the inflation resulting from the money printing. If the American population focused on that it might stop and those who benefit from it don't want it to stop. The distraction was Covid and it is not a coincidence that at almost the exact moment that started to fade away it was replaced by a conflict between two countries on the other side of the planet.

Brad's is generally considered here to be the best strip club in town. This is because, as this reviewer says, you usually have a good experience here. Some club goers, though, like different things. I think I have heard three common complaints about this club over the years. The first complaint is that the girls sit too much with local regulars. All the Indianapolis clubs are more locals rather than tourist oriented, so all the clubs here tend to be like this. The second common complaint is not high enough mileage available. Indianapolis is a conservative city with fairly strict rules. The girls at this club risk getting fired if they do too much so only the more money hungry or desperate ones try it. A third common complaint is there are never any surprises here. A lot of customers like that but some customers want more excitement.

The most ghetto club here in Indianapolis is Pure Passion. It has the lowest number of reviews here of Indianapolis clubs that have been around for a while. I went there one time to see what it was like. It was crowded but I was the only white person in the club. The security guy came over and stood by my table the whole time I was there and I felt like he was protecting me from being attacked. A couple weeks later I told a black dancer at a better club I went there. She stared at me in surprise, laughed and said "you are so crazy".

I work for the Department of Defense in accounting and all of us have been teleworking full time from home for two years now. We were recently offered the option to make full time telework permanent and I chose that. I've thought about applying for jobs where I can make more money. It's always nice to have more money for things like strip clubs. I might not be able to telework full time on those, though. Also, I only really work about five hours a day on my current job and my bosses all like me. They think I'm a dependable and competent worker who doesn't cause any trouble. Government workers tend to be less competent and cause more trouble than their private sector equivalents, so it is easy to be a better than average employee in the government.
