Am I right to be kind of offended?Don't take this the wrong way, but maybe seeing you would bring up unpleasant memories and feelings for them. Kind of like seeing an ex-boyfriend, but one that paid you to blow him in a strip club.

Legalized prostitutionSo, some people I am loosely acquainted with were on tour and went to Hong Kong club in TJ this past week and they paid a girl $250 to have every member of their band run a train on her. You're right, it IS really just shiny happy people holding hands.

Just another ex-dancer suing a strip club@ilbby - Sort of, it's more like a booth rental at a hair salon or something similar.

The portrayal of strippers in the mediaMaybe it's because I've grown up under the nurturing, protective (lol) umbrella of the industry but I know a lot of ex-strippers that have used stripping as a stepping stone to an amazing life. I mean, my mom was a stripper, a lot of my parents' friends were strippers ... Hell, even my boyfriend's GRANDMOTHER (RIP) was a stripper.

The portrayal of strippers in the media@club_goer "Showgirls" is my roommate's favorite movie. He loves it so, so much. I love it so, so much.

Just another ex-dancer suing a strip club^ Usually house fees are more expensive the less days/hours you work, and if you put in their "minimum shifts" (usually 3 or 4) and get there before a certain time (say, 8pm) the house fee is under $20 or non-existant.

Just another ex-dancer suing a strip clubI do understand why certain measures are in place, especially in higher-end clubs. If there aren't fines and minimum shift requirements you're going to have no one showing up for the slower days and then 70+ girls on a Friday and Saturday nights. In a perfect world money would be enough of an incentive to show up and do your job, but a lot of dancers really are lazy and want to take advantage of their "independent contractor" status just as much as the owners and management do.
Do I like being fined $200 for missing a shift? No, but I should have just showed up for the day I put myself on schedule for in the first place.

Just another ex-dancer suing a strip clubI want to say that they mean well, but this is a short-sighted and selfish approach to this. Firstly, if they aren't making money they need to get a different job or dance at a different club. Second, if they want to be treated and classified as employees they're going to lose all of the perks of being an "independent contractor" ie. choosing your own schedule, tax deductions and even (as bad as this is) being able to fudge your income on your taxes. In addition, at clubs where dancers can choose to be classified as employees they usually have to give most of their tips over to the club in return for getting an hourly wage/being provided with costumes.
If stupid dancers keep filing frivolous lawsuits like this there's going to be some kind of stupid "reform" eventually and it's just going to fuck things up for the rest of us.

Why do Dancers have to lie so much.Oh, the other reason is that strippers are drunk idiots that can't count properly.

Why do Dancers have to lie so much.Because the truth wouldn't sell dances. "No, I'm not attracted to you and I would never hang out with you outside of here because you make me extremely uncomfortable when you lick my neck and make weird grunting/slurping sounds" doesn't sound very nice, does it?

What would you do?I'd probably run away if an obviously unhinged and possibly rabid naked woman hopped out of a van and started furiously masturbating in my direction. That's just me, though.
