My income taxes are going up by $350 a month on January first unless Congress and Obama change the law and I'm not rich, or even close to it. That's a huge cut in my disposable income and I'm not going to be spending that money at strip clubs, eating out, buying new clothes, paying someone to clean my home, donating to charity, or any number of things.
There are hundreds of thousands of people within an hour drive of where I live who are all going to see their taxes go up by that amount and they're all going to have to spend less because they'll have less money. The local coffee shops and restaurants. The waitresses who live on tips. The people who clean houses. The people who do lawn care and snow plowing. The employees at car dealerships. The people who work in small factories. All of them are going to have fewer people buying their products and services because instead of keeping our money to spend it's being taken and sent to Washington D.C.
That's going to affect hundreds of millions of people and it's going to have a domino effect. I'm spending less eating out so the employees at the restaurants are going to work, and earn, less so they're going to spend less. If the laws aren't changed this is going to be devastating to you, me, and most of our neighbors. Some people will be Ok, but most of us will have less money at the end of the month. The people who will be Ok? They're the rich. Because they don't pay taxes. They fire employees, make products cheaper or smaller, and raise prices to keep their income the same. We pay their taxes for them, we just don't realize it.

I wasn't there when this happened. I was planning on going there tonight until I read that article.
Yes, there are some prettier girls working there, or at least there were. We'll see what happens when the real trial happens.

I know a lot of black people who voted for Obama because he's black. I heard one black man saying to another one, "You have to vote for Obama, he's black like us."

The two days after the election the stock market dropped and hundreds of companies announced massive layoffs. The Congressional Budget Office is predicting another recession, although if employment was measured the same way it was measured back in the 1920's and 1930's we'd still be in a depression. The facts are pretty ugly.
On a personal level, my taxes are going to go up by $350 a month on January 1st. No, I'm not rich, or even close to it. I'm a middle class white collar employee.
That is a looming disaster for both the country and me. And what is coming out of the elected politicians? Leadership? Working together to solve this? Nope. Political posturing and games.

It's a dive bar. 3 or 4 cops couldn't go into the place, arrest 3 people, close it, and tell everyone to leave safely. They got that many cops for their safety.

I'm pretty sure that the guy who was arrested just used Gloria's as a bar to deal drugs. I don't think that he was an employee, he just used the place. The two women have both worked there for a while.

Setting up an OTC arrangement with a stripper in a strip club is safer. You know in advance exactly who you're seeing, you get the chance to try her out ITC first, and you don't need to worry about getting arrested. It's a lot safer all around.

I'd suggest asking that question on www.stripperweb.com. You'll get better answers than you will here.

Rumor has it that extras are available in every strip club in Pittsburgh, you just have to ask the right dancers to find it.

@TortillaChip, yes. The rules should be the same for everyone. Using your employer's account to send porn is s big no-no.
If any of you know any high school students ask them how easy it is to get around those filters. They keep honest people honest, they don't stop people who are determined.

@Alucard is right. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. According to a friend of mine who is a female stripper the only male strippers who earn any real money work in gay bars, not strip clubs catering to women. I'd avoid that unless you're willing to pretend to be gay.

Stupidity on his part. What part of, "it's your employer's computer, not yours" is hard to understand? If I get caught browsing porn on my employer's computer I'll get fired too, and I don't work for a school district. That guy was using our tax money instead of his own. Sorry, no sympathy.

The taxes are only lower because you don't report it to the IRS.....

Strippers who are motivated can pull in over $1,000 cash a week without doing extras. The ones who do extras earn more than that and despite what is posted on this site most strippers don't do extras. How many of us pull in over $50,000 a year take home? The math isn't that hard to do, strippers earn a lot of money and they don't need college degrees or years worth of work to work their way up to earning that much.

A lot of them earn at least $500 a week, don't file their taxes, and collect welfare.

If the voters pass the bill the porn industry will move 2 miles outside of the county line and other than that they won't change anything. And in the process, millions of dollars in tax revenue will go to other counties instead of going to Los Angeles and the city will panic. It's really very simple. The end result will be to drive the industry out of Los Angeles, the end result will not be condoms in porn movies.

It depends on the month. I didn't go once in July and I went once or twice in August. I made up for it in September though!

I either spend between $200 and $250 or between $20 and $50 when I go to a strip club. If I get a room, it's going to be over $200. If I only tip at the stage, it's going to be less than $50. The most I've ever spent in one night was about $600 and I'm kicking myself to this day because I found out a month after the stripper who I spent $450 of that on would have met me OTC and the menu would have been "yes" if I would have just asked and spent the entire night with me for what I spent on her in one hour ITC.

Hygiene and personal appearance are huge to me. That doesn't mean a specific look, that means being clean and taking care of yourself.
I don't ask dancers for dances unless they approach me first. I've gotten too many bad dances from dancers who were beautiful but who didn't approach me. I've never gotten a bad dance from a dancer who approached me and talked with me. I tip almost everyone on stage, but only a couple of bucks so that's really nothing.
Stay out of the dressing room and be approachable. You can't earn money if you don't do any dances and you can't do dances sitting in the dressing room.
If there is a customer sitting there by himself, don't form a circle of dancers with your backs to the room, invite the customer in. You never know which customer is going to be the one who spends money that night and when I'm spending money the girls who form that circle whose body language says, "stay away" don't get anything from me other than tips on the stage. When that circle opens up and they say hi to me and include me in the conversation, I'm spending money on that group that night. Not all of them, but some of them and I do buy drinks for the whole group without being asked.
Don't hustle too much. Asking if I want a dance works. Being obvious about using me as an ATM is a turn off and guarantees that I'll stop spending money on you.

Every club that I've been in except one the club collects the dance fee and that get's split with the girl. Anything that I give to the dancer directly is a tip. There is one club in the area where the dancers collect the payment and have to pay the club after the dance and most of them ask to see the money before starting. They don't ask for the money until after the dance is finished, but they want to see it so they don't get stiffed.

Most of the reviews that I've read have matched my experience when I've gone to the clubs. I'm pretty sure that most of the reviews are accurate and only a very few are fake.

Most strippers don't do extras, except at clubs that are really brothels. It's just that reading this site for a couple of months will teach you how to find the ones who do.

@rh48hr is right. I've gotten far better dances from the strippers who approach me than the ones who I approach without exception. I don't chase strippers down and ask them for dances any more unless it's someone who asked me for a dance on a previous visit. Why? Because the ones who ask me for dances give me much better dances than the ones who I ask for dances.
