I probably wouldn't kick her out of bed, and if she walked by me at the beach I'd probably look twice. But if she approached me in a strip club I'd send her on her way.

LMFAO. I don't know man. It's been that way for a couple years.

^ I haven't even had to go through that rigamarole at SR the last few times I was there. The girl asked to see it, I told her she can see it but not scan it, she said that's all she needs. A bit off topic, but is Monroes still scanning ID's? I haven't been there in a while because of they did. They were jackasses about it too, I remember one time they didn't scan me on entry and the manager came and found me at the bar and insisted I let him scan it. They let me walk out when I refused. Pretty sure that was the last time I was there.

The Rhino local to me here did it for a while. I stopped going for a long time and they didn't do it the last few times I went. If they start again, I'll stop going again. I still don't like ID scanning at clubs and will avoid clubs that do it for the most part. The why has been discussed on here many times. I actually did receive marketing in the mail from another local club that had scanned my ID. I'm pretty sure the two are completely unrelated, I think they sent a flyer to everyone in the area. Also, as you mentioned there are multiple data sources that link Names to phone numbers and emails, as well as social media. They aren't always accurate, but it would be trivial for the them to start emailing ads that say "come back to the strip club, Sparkles misses you" or something. I'm pretty sure most of the smaller shops are scanning them because it comes with part of their bar management software package. The larger ones are more interested in the aggregated demographics data, and interested in correlating it to receipts as another way to watch out for theft in cash heavy businesses. They want to know things like "most of our customers on day shift live within 10 miles of the club, or are 53yrs old, or make $$$k/yr" or that kind of shit. They also want to know that typically ### people come in, and sales are $$$ for an average check of $. Then when Manager X or Bartender Y is working, average check is consistently lower, which suggests some sort of leakage. They always say it's about keeping out bad/violent customers, but I'm pretty sure they catch 100x insiders stealing for every customer they reject due to their banned customer network.

The one in Riviera has had problems with violence as far back as I can remember. But like 25 said, I don't think that's strictly the issue. The issue there I think is the location. It's fine for the sort of vibe they're going for, but the issue with that crowd is they're fickle and once it ceases to be new they get bored and move on to the next shiny new spot. That location isn't really conducive to the kind of place that would draw in regular traffic, it's real out of the way. At Gold Club in Pompano, IMO it was primarily poor management that did them in over and over. They did stupid shit like make table dances tops on and no contact, while at every other club in the area they're topless with heavy contact. They tolerated and supported violent drug dealers as customers, taking sides with them over their own employees. They let girls come and go as they please. They get mixed up in political bullshit like not serving Bud Light over their stupid controversy. They didn't keep consistent hours; opening late, shutting down early, or just randomly being closed some days. I'm not about to buy the place, but I'd bet that if a couple of managers from one of the other successful clubs found someone to fund them and they replicated the formula of the big three it could very easily turn into the big 4 over there. Or if Diamond Dolls wanted to simply move into a larger building, I have little doubt they could pull it off.

Pretty sure both do. I didn't see a listing in Riviera Beach though? And I thought that club was recently bought by Aces, the same people who own the Aces in Cocoa Beach. That location is fucked though, I can't see anyone ever succeeding there long term.

Nope. Not interested in the pics/video's part, as I'd prefer to see that stuff in person. Especially not interested in messaging part, I find that shit to be a burden not something I want to pay to do.

Looks like they're also listing ORA: https://www.stripclubrealty.com/palmbeach/ and 3 Miami clubs I'm not sure which is which.

That's the club that was most recently known as Gold Club, previously known by a few names including Pink Pony and Crazy Horse. Word on the street was that they gave up on making that a strip club and it was set to go back to some sort of light industrial type place. I kinda believed the rumors since last time I drove by it looked like someone had gutted the inside as many of those fixtures and furniture pieces were sitting outside in what looked to be a yard sale in the making.

But how do they do dances at Risque? Is it $20/song? Is it $20/3 mins? $20/some other duration? And yeah, I had similar experience at Cheerleaders but I only did dances with two different girls. Is it the same there? I agree the pre-pay of $20 to start is not an issue, and I don't even mind squaring up with him at the end instead of the girl. But I didn't like not knowing how much of a bill I was racking up. I probably would have kept going several more songs to make it an even $100, but I was a little worried I was gonna think it was $100 and it was gonna turn out to be $200 or something. At my local clubs, it's by the song and I'm rarely off by more than 1 song or $25 bucks.

Well, I should say that in general I don't like to spend a lot of time out front talking about how dances work. I feel like that sorta kills the romance of the moment. I tend to just wing it. Anyway, at Risque Philly, there's a guy posted up at a desk near the entrance to the area where they do dances. From reviews, I knew the dances were $20 each, but I didn't know anything else. The first girl I went back with told me I had to pre-pay for all my dances, so I gave the guy $40 for two. Then we went in, just by coincidence it was right at the start of a song so she started right way. At the end of that song, she stood up, said that's it and quickly walked away, never to be seen again. In her defense, it was a long ass EDM song that probably was in excess of 5 mins. But, it was clearly 1 song, not the two I paid for. But, it was a shitty dance to a long song and I really wasn't interested int he 2nd song anyway so I didn't even make an effort to stop her and zero effort to recover the $20 from the guy out front since I didn't really feel cheated on time. The next girl asked where I was from and asked how the clubs were down here, that led to a discussion about how dances are done differently. She started out giving me the same story as the first girl, but when I asked her "what happens I buy two dances and at the end I want more? We have to stop, go back out front and pay again, then come back?" she changed her tune and her eyes lit up a little like she had a fish on. She said I had to pay $20 to go into the room, which covered the first song, then when we were finished I could pay for any extra songs. So, that's what we did. We got back there mid song & she waited for the next song to start. The dances were good, not quite south Florida good, but I kept count and we did 5 songs. We stopped at the end of a song. After we were finished, I asked her how much I owed and she shrugged and said she didn't know, we'd have to ask the guy. We went out there, dude looked at his screen, stuck out his hand and said "40." I asked, "40 more?" because I fully expected to owe $80 more and he confirmed, "3 dances, you paid 20 already so 40 more." Now thoroughly confused, I was approached by a girl I knew from Cheetah Pompano. I know her quite intimately, if you know what I'm saying. We're not BFF's, but I know she is a straight shooter and she knows the same about me. So I asked her to explain how this works to me. She told me it's timed, not song based. She didn't know how long the time was, but said there was a clock in the room. I asked about the rooms, and she deflected and asked about where I was staying. When I went back a few days later for a night shift, the confusion started all over again. I went back with another girl and paid for one song to start, I looked at the clock when we sat down and got up & saw that 11 minutes had passed for a total of 4 songs. The guy said I owed $20 more. With the next girl, it was almost the exact same scenario, but this time 9 minutes and three songs had passed, and the guy said I owed $40 more. So, bottom line I got dances with 6-8 different girls and still don't know exactly how dances are sold. I don't feel like I was cheated, it just seems unpredictable and that leaves the door open to feeling cheated.

You'll find a significant portion of English speakers at only a few clubs. Rachel's, Scarlett's and Vixens are the three that spring to mind. There's a few clubs with primarily black girls where English speaking is the norm too, PortHole, The Body, Climaxx. But if English speaking is an important criteria, I'd remove south Florida from your list of possibilities. It's not like you won't find a few here and there, but odds are you'll end up physically enamored with a non-English speaker and then feel like you're settling for a decent looking English speaker, which will kinda damper the fun.

Yes.

B or C, only because I can't trust regular cleavage not to be the result of a well fitting bra. Saggy boobs are the worst; usually with under or side view I can be assured they're perky.

It's a bit of a homer suggestion, but south Florida works for just dances too. The $10 table dances at the Pompano clubs, Booby Trap, Cheetah, and Diamond Dolls are pretty solid. Many girls will do slightly better in the $25/song lap dance areas too. IMO, those are better day shift options than night, but night shift is okay too. If you aren't looking for extras and want to go late night, you can hit up places like Vixens and Scarlett's in Davie & Hallendale respectively. Both of those tend to have some pretty hot girls and pretty good dances without much of an upsell to the rooms. There are also clubs like the Body in Miami that is a lower end but still fun place to stop. Or a spot like Deans gold with the $25 dances. If you're in Palm Beach, Fri/Sat nights after 11 or so and aren't too worried about price, Rachels is nice. Rhino and Cheetah are also okay, but Cheetah will have some upsell for the rooms. Monroes can be fun, but I usually avoid that place due to the ID scanning. I was just recently in Philly and tried out two of the Risque's and Cheerleaders, they weren't bad but I'm not a fan of the tip parade. Maybe it's because I'm not local and don't quite understand the MO, but I also found the pre-payment for dances and the way they count songs a bit odd. They also seemed to be topless only, vs the full nudity in south Florida. But I will say two of the three had some girls that were quite hot, funny enough I even met a pair of Cuban girls who recognized me from Cheetah Pompano. I did enjoy speaking to the the girls in English, but oddly found them to be much less inclined to sit and chat. I didn't get a chance to thoroughly investigate as I was only there M-F, but I wouldn't choose Philly over south Florida. I haven't been to Toronto/Missasauga in about a year and a half, but in the past I've quite enjoyed those clubs. A lot of places have $20 dances, and with the exchange rate being the way it us the US dollars go far up there. They don't seem to have the obsession with thickness up there, so I quite like the selection of girls. Its hard for me to say they're better than the south Florida clubs, but Toronto is one of the few areas I usually weasel an extra day or two in my trip so I can hit the clubs.

@CMI, you're right. I bit; I fed the troll. My bad.

Do people seriously factor in the suitability for lap dances as part of an underwear purchase? I'm a boxer brief guy. I never considered specifically choosing a specific pair/style for strip clubs. I do wear them to the club, they never really hinder my activities. They're easy enough to move out of the way or take off as needed. But I really don't give it a half a seconds thought, I can't say I've ever dressed specifically for the club. I wear what I wear.

I don't know the transmission mechanisms for cooties. I think there is a vaccine though, I'm pretty sure I was given the circle circle dot dot shot back in elementary school.

I don't watch a lot of porn. I've found when I look, it's a lot of themes that I'm put off by. I run into that step-sibling stuff often and even when I don't, it seems like there is an obsession with something else I don't find sexy. Like way too focused on anal, or rough/humiliation type shit, or both. I also prefer slim, natural girls. Often I don't find the comic book style fake tits and wide hips on many girls in porn to be attractive. Even when I do find porn with an attractive actress and no objectionable themes, I'd still rather have the real thing in person.

I usually ignore @rickmacrodong's bullshit, but in this case I've got to call it out. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I will concede that many strippers will say they are single because they know many guys want to hear that and that Icey is full of shit, but the rest of your points are complete and total nonsense. Strippers in relationships in my experience are substantially more likely to show up on time and ready to go for OTC engagements. If anything, they're similar ITC too, but I have almost no problems with strippers not delivering ITC so I can't say they're substantially better than single girls since there really isn't really room for them to be much better. On the odd occasion they do have to cancel, they are infinitely more likely to tell me than the single girls who think its fine to just ghost. As far as hang ups go, again that's total nonsense. I've seen zero correlation to girls in relationships having any of the sort of limits you're talking about. If anything, again my experience is the total opposite. They'll happily kiss me all night long and I'm the one bringing up wearing condoms cause they're inclined to go raw. That said, I'll go back to ignoring your dumb ass comments again.

Probably C. But with elements of B and D. I do try not to touch things unnecessarily, and I try to avoid touching my face & eyes. I'll generally avoid the club if I've got any little nicks or cuts on my hand that are exposed. I don't carry hand sanitizer, but I do make sure to wash my hands with soap and generally use paper towels to dry. But, when it comes to touching the girls, I'm not the least bit restrained from grabbing some tits or ass because I'm concerned they may have cooties. Strip clubs probably aren't anywhere near the dirtiest place I go though. I'm sure plenty of hotels I stay at are much dirtier, and I mostly stay at higher end places for work. Gas stations, grocery stores, etc, are all likely as dirty.

Mostly its the Cuban standard "Hi baby, my name is whatever, where you from? " with a pause for an answer and then a "I'm from Cuba." Then usually you want dance or sometimes you been here long, then asking about a dance.

I'm still not understanding what your dream or fantasy is or how her relationship status interferes with that. If you're not talking about a real emotional relationship, what difference does her emotional investment in someone else make in your fantasy? I'm not a qualified mental professional by any means, but my amateur analysis makes me think you very much are fantasizing about a genuine emotional relationship with the stripper. And it's her unavailability that destroys that fantasy for you. You're just not being honest with yourself and or us about it. If it's purely physical, I can tell you from my pretty considerable experience that a stripper being in a relationship does little to nothing to preclude her from hooking up with customers. More often than not, the strippers I'm hooking up with have SO's. I may even prefer the ones with someone to get home too. They are somewhat more reliable in their scheduling, less apt to over stay their welcome, and every bit as enthusiastic.

Like without dislike is snowflake shit. If you can't take someone thumbs downing your post, IMO you lack the emotional intelligence and fortitude to deal with strip clubs in general. I'd like to see both of them back. Pictures are good too, but I can do without those. A view that showed which reviews a particular adjudicator approved/rejected might be interesting too.

I'd say 75% of the south Florida clubs have some sort of Halloween party including a costume contest of sorts for the girls. Even the clubs with the stuffy gown rules tend to let their guard down for a night.
