I saw a study once that showed that the price escorts can charge drops by half every ten years. For example, 30-year-old escorts charge half of what twenty year olds charge and forty-year-old escorts charge half of what thirty year olds charge. Youth is highly important to their sexual market value. The sexual market value of women appears to fall faster than men. Up to the age of 45 more women than men are married but after 45 more men than women are married. In my personal experience, many older women are not aware of this. I can remember one time when I was fifty, I was talking to a female of my same age. She said she was puzzled that she had lots of males being friendly to her when she was a 20-year-old in college but not as a fifty-year-old woman.

A perfect club for a customer might be free lap dances from pretty strippers. A perfect club for a stripper might be guys walking in and handing her money and then walking back out. A perfect club for a club manager might be one with no extras that doesn't get raided and shut down by the police and the customers and strippers never complain about anything. The reality of a strip club is that the way it is run is a compromise between what the strippers, customers and club manager want. In order for a club to be successful it needs to successfully balance the desires of all three. Customers make a mistake when they make up lists of what they personally want in a club and think implementing that list is all that is needed to boost revenues. They are not taking into account the wants of others involved and by not doing that they are being unrealistic.

I almost always spend under a hundred dollars per visit. What increases the cost above that is either trying to get more than just a lap dance by spending more or trying to impress someone, neither of which I do.

It would be hard for guys who travel a lot and visit lots of different clubs to guess on this. I will occasionally visit clubs in other cities but most of my club visits are nine clubs in Indianapolis and I visit them often enough, every month or every couple of months, to have a rough idea how long the girls stay here. I will say about a third of the girls I do lap dances with are gone if I revisit the club a month later. Maybe a fifth of those will turn up at another local club later but four fifths disappear forever. Of the remaining two thirds of girls still there after a month I would guess about half of them are gone within two years. I would guess the average overall stay for a stripper is one and a half years. My regulars stay on average about three years but my regulars are all above average strippers. I personally know of three Indianapolis strippers who have been here for ten years in the same club and there are probably others. Probably only one out of fifty stay that long.

My father taught trigonometry in high school sixty year ago. I've never had the faintest idea what that would be used for, and I don't hear about any young people taking it in high school these days. Is that something that was dropped from the high school curriculum because it has little practical application or were pocket calculators or computers developed that could do that, so people no longer need to learn it?

I don't use it in my accounting job. My great grandfather wrote an algebra textbook and made a lot of money from it, so it was very helpful he knew it.

It's more about your biological age than your chronological age. I knew a stripper who was very pretty as a nineteen-year-old and made a lot of money. She had numerous bad health habits. She smoked cigarettes, ate nothing but junk food, never exercised, was an alcoholic and a heroin addict. By the time she was twenty-four her looks had deteriorated so badly she could no longer make money and had to quit. You'll know when it is time to quit stripping when your income drops enough that other jobs you can do offer a comparable income. Some strippers get in a rut and stay too long. They would be better off starting a new career and begin to develop new job skills they can use to make money in the future.

If you allow the free market to work, then the customers will decide which clubs to go to and the clubs they avoid will shut down. The main problem for us customers is government interference. In many cases local governments use zoning or licensing laws to prevent the new good clubs from opening that would drive the old bad clubs out of existence. Allowing open competition would lead to survival of the best.

The Ukraine-Russia war reminds me of something that happens frequently here in the inner city of Indianapolis. You'll have a situation where a couple of young hotheads get in a quarrel, the quarrel escalates, and they start shooting at each other. While they are shooting at each other, an innocent bystander like a small child accidentally gets shot and killed. When I hear about this, I feel disgust at the two young numbskulls and really sorry for the child and her family. That is kind of how I feel about the Ukraine-Russia war.

Many people originally came to the United States because they wanted to get away from the religious and ethnic wars that had plagued Europe for centuries. Washington in his Farewell Address said, having escaped that, we shouldn't become embroiled in those interminable wars over in Europe. The Monroe doctrine warned Europe they could continue their quarrels, but they better not come over here and start fights with each other or with us.

I've never had a stripper want to stay with me. I have had a stripper want me to keep her cat because her cat and her dog were not getting along with each other and that would have required her to come where I live to drop the cat off. I politely declined because I already had a cat. One cat is enough. Some people would even say one cat is one cat too many.

Call.Me.Ishamael, anyone is welcome to address either the effect of their ethnicity or their nationality on their politics. If I understand what you are saying, nationality and ethnicity overlap but are not identical and I would agree with that. A country might have a dominant ethnic group and also other ethnic groups. For example, Spain has Spaniards but also Catalonians and Basques, many of whom dislike Spaniards. If they moved to the U.S., they might identify more with their old ethnic group rather than with the country of Spain itself. Some people might not identify at all with either their ethnic group or their nationality. I identify with a certain set of political principles. I think throughout history most governments have been the enemy of the productive individual who just wants to be left alone to pursue a career, have a family and enjoy life (including heading for the strip club). Rather than identify with a certain ethnic group or nationality, I see myself as being on the side of this group. The U.S. government has come closest of any government in history to being on their side. Even in the case of the U.S., they have not always been on the right side. For example, in the early era large plantation owners were allowed to own slaves. We had to fight a war to end that and I admire Lincoln for that. I also admire Martin Luther King later on for demanding equal treatment under the law for blacks.

So this is the infamous Dougster who I've heard so much about. I have no memory of him from when he was here. Nineteen thousand comments. Unbelievable. It looks like he left in 2018 after throwing some sort of temper tantrum and threatening to leave. I don't care enough to look at the details. If I ever get pissed off enough to stop posting here I might mention I was leaving. I would never threaten to leave because why would anyone care enough to alter their behavior to keep me from leaving?

I'm a Boomer who likes the Beatles and Bowie the most. I rarely hear music that old in a club. The DJ isn't interested in it, the girls aren't interested in it, and the old guy customers don't care enough to request it. Sometimes when I tell a dancer I like the Beatles she will remark her parents like them. I've run across a few dancers with unusual musical tastes. I told a stripper one time I like blues music and she said she had a Muddy Waters album. I asked her how she knew about him and she said her dad was a professional blues musician. I've also run into a few girls who like eighties alternative rock bands like the Pixies or the Smiths that I also like. Usually, though, they just like current pop music. I'm really interested in music and know more about current music than most Boomers and the girls are usually surprised by that. For example, they are surprised I know who Billie Eilish is and can name several of her hit songs.

The inflation is being caused by government money printing. Government money printing started accelerating when the government increased it to try to offset the negative effects of the Covid lockdowns. Most people have a tendency to think about present benefits while not thinking about future costs. Wise decision making requires thinking about both, but that second group is a minority of voters. Politicians get elected by pandering to the first type of voter.

In addition to not telling others how to have fun, thou shalt not pay any attention to others who tell you how to have fun. One thing I've learned over 65 years is not to spend all your time seeking the approval of others and doing what they think you should do. You should do what you want to do and what will make you happy. The only exceptions are engaging in force against others such as murdering, robbing, raping etc. The renunciation of the use of force by everyone is required for everyone to be able to live in a civilized society.

I tend to agree with the commenters above that this is a borderline shill review and really vague. Normally, I would approve a review like this. It's usually better to have an imperfect review of a club than no review at all and if someone is willing to take the time and effort to write a review out it should be approved. This is especially the case where the club is one where the last review was a couple years back. In this situation, however, instead of the last review being two years ago it appears there have been 23 reviews of this club in the last two years. Do we really need a new mediocre review for this club when there are already so many recent reviews for this club?

Thou shalt not say things here to another that thou wouldn't say in person.

"Ukraine doesn't want to be part of Russia." The Russian speaking parts of Ukraine don't want to be part of Ukraine but Ukraine is forcibly attempting to stop them from leaving. According to the Ukrainians, they can secede from Russia but no one can secede from them.

I saw a corruption index. Russia was ranked as the most corrupt country in Europe and the Ukraine was ranked as the second most corrupt country in Europe. There really isn't much difference between the two. This isn't good guy versus bad guy. It's bad guy versus bad guy. There is really little reason for the U.S. to become involved here. I think this is being focused on by the liberal media to distract people from the failure of Biden's Covid response, his failure to stop inflation, his failure to stop crime, his failure to control the border, his failure to stop supply chain disruptions, his bungled Afghanistan withdrawal and so on. Biden is such a bad president it wouldn't surprise me if he stumbles his way into World War III here.

Out of town visitors only have a limited time to visit local clubs. It would make no sense for one to waste their time visiting a small mediocre club in a bad part of town. Because of that, they are unlikely to do so and the reality is that they don't actually do so. I am sorry but I am not going to spend time aiming my reviews at a nonexistent group of people, guys who visit cities so they can go to bad strip clubs there. I made a useful suggestion for visitors to this city, that they don't go to this club and pick a better one. Not only are there better clubs but the nature of a club like this is that, since almost all of the customers are locals, many of the dancers will have those locals as regulars and if you are not a local you will just end up frustrated by the lack of attention. If I were getting paid to write these reviews, I would put in what the people paying me would want. Since I don't get paid, I write the review I want and aim it at the people I want to aim it at. Since I know the reviews I read here are being provided for me for free, I have never griped or complained that they don't provide exactly what I want. I would consider that showing a lack of appreciation for the person who made an effort to write the review. If the adjudicators want to reject my review because it is a "club ad" or doesn't provide what they want that is fine but I am not going to worry about it and will continue to write the reviews the way I want to write them. I usually put in enough information that the reviews are of some use to some people, in this particular case locals, but if that is not enough and the reviews get rejected then I will just stop writing them. I really don't care. I get enjoyment out of writing them the way I want to write them and it would be sheer drudgery for me if I didn't do that, and unpaid drudgery at that.

Women dream of the man who is rich, handsome and charming. In the romance novels they read, the main female character is always meeting a guy like this. In the real world, though, these guys are hard to find. The rich guy is ugly, the handsome guy is an obnoxious jerk, and the charming guy is broke and unemployed. Since it is hard to find a guy who is all three, women often settle for a guy who is two out of three or even one out three. Sometimes they may have two guys, a handsome charming guy and a rich guy, but only if both guys are willing to accept sharing her. Strippers are sometimes in this situation. They have a boyfriend who is willing to accept that his female lover is going to be spending time and maybe even engaging in sexual activities with other men who have money they are willing to give her. I've known strippers like that. I have also known other strippers who have boyfriends who won't accept that. These girls either have to quit stripping or dump the boyfriend who is demanding that they quit stripping. Some of the girls I've known do one and some I've known do the other. If I were a young girl, I would pick the guy who would be best for a long term relationship. Most young girls, though, don't think long term. They pick the thing that is best for them in the present.

TUSCL where I am docsavage and Usasexguide where I am roycat. Also, I comment on politics at unz.com. Nearby I have a Starbucks which I go to twice weekly and order a large unsweetened iced green tea and where they know my name. For eating out, I like to visit the salad bar at Whole Foods. They have a little dining area. Weekly I go to MCL cafeteria. This is often referred to by younger people here as "old people food" but is the kind of traditional Indiana food I ate as a child so I like it. I also always visit the same barber shop. It is owned by a guy who collects clocks and has probably a hundred clocks on the wall. I always know what time it is when I'm getting my hair cut there. I used to live on a street which had three strip clubs and probably would never have started up a strip club hobby if I hadn't been in that unusual situation. I had dancers at all three who knew my name.

I find some black girls attractive and some not attractive, same as with other racial groups. When I was young, I didn't do particularly well with them because most of them don't like the nerdy white guy type, a category I belong to. They usually acted like they disliked me. In strip clubs they will try to be friendly to me because they want to sell me lap dances but, just beneath the surface friendliness, I can feel the barely submerged dislike. Because of that, I don't usually have my best strip club experiences with them and try to pick white, Asian, Hispanic and biracial girls. I've had three half black and half white regulars that I've really liked.

As for LD mileage, I said in my review that out-of-town visitors should not come here and this club is mainly for locals as part of their regular club rotation. If you are from out of town and taking my advice not to go here then you don't need to know what the LD mileage is and if you are a local who goes to clubs regularly then you already know what standard Indianapolis LD mileage is. So I see no point including that information and any complaints about it not being there to be an invalid criticism. I pointed out at the very beginning of this review that this club had not been reviewed for over two years. The purpose of this review was to let locals know the club was still open and things there were still about the same and the club had not gone into a serious decline. I think this review achieved the purpose for which it was intended.
