Good review, just wanted to say I know a lot of girls who dance at ACROP and this is specifically a "no hustle" club and it is discouraged at the risk of being fired to interact with the customers anywhere outside of when you are on stage performing.

Kind Things for Strippers this Holiday Season
"Surprise her with a $100 tip and IT COULD lead you to many UNEXPECTED EVENTS such an OTC encounter" I never intended to state that a guarantee OTC encounter WOULD happen, only that it COULD, if the female wanted to. I work a waitress job and have received such gift cards from a few customers lately, I was grateful. I did not prostitute myself for the cards nor was I asked for that, I simply suggested that gift because I personally had received it and thought it was kind. My service for those customers has remained positive and I was only encouraging positive tipping and the possibility (be it 1 in a million) that it could maybe lead to OTC if the girl wanted it to.

Kind Things for Strippers this Holiday Season
thanks to everyone for taking the time to read my article. I am sorry some of you did not like it. I meant the ideas only as suggestions about some kind gifts for dancers. It it is up to you to decide to give, what to give, or to not give. I made my suggestions based on my own experience working in a high extras dive where plenty of girls including myself barely make $8 a night. I never intended to sound insulting, but I know myself, and I know the dancers I work with, and they all would be grateful for these types of gifts I mentioned. In the spirit of the season I think everyone should think of giving the people in their lives something, whether big or small. And that includes the dancers that you know. Again, thanks for taking the time to read, and I apologize if I sounded offensive. I hope the article encourages one person to do something kind and unexpected for a stripper / woman in their life that they hadn't thought of before. All the best

A Dancer's Perspective on Extras
Thank you to everyone who took the time to read the article. Thank you also for the comments and compliments. I will add more articles as I think of things that would be good information for TUSCL members. Jestrite; yes at my club I know of girls that do offer free services, and it is well known what kind of services are available (mostly 2 way oral sex). At my club there really is not a typical "tip" given for extra services. Only some patrons choose to tip on top of the standard $20 per song, and only few dancers will demand a tip whatsoever. Mostly the ones that demand it are ROBs. Nelson: I agree that the environment is not a positive one for new dancers who think that they can get by just doing "air dances." I often see dancers wanting to make money and they are new to dancing all together, refusing simple things like showing their vagina ever. Not during lap dances, not for X amount of money, not at all ... So many customers would complain to me about how that new girl did'nt show them pussy and they were just dying to have it at that point. It can create unfair circumstances. But the girls have to realize what is going on and either choose to stay and play the game or exit it altogether. If the girl does not want to show her pussy, she does not have to, but she has to one day realize that the money potential decreases the more prudish one is in the strip club environment. Estafador: thanks for your thoughts, I am not intending to influence anyone's tipping habits, I just wanted to share some thoughts of how dancers see extras going on around them. I always encourage all people in the clubs to tip as they see fit, and I am always grateful for what comes my way. I agree on one hand about getting the hourly wage job, and I actually work about 25 hours a week doing an hourly wage job. But what I want to say is the potential as a young woman to make money is far greater dancing than in those hourly wage jobs. I personally have made more money stripping in a faster period than I ever have in any job prior. And I do not want to brag or boast but I have had all types of jobs from teaching both high school and community college students to working all aspects in a vitamin wholesale company. I have worked years in hotels doing everything from making reservations to cleaning the rooms, to cooking meals in the kitchen. I have no shame in cleaning toilets but I do think there is a fallacy in the American dream being applicable to a young woman who can also Strip; the opportunity for fast cash is just much more abundant if the woman is willing to take the risk. Thanks again for all thoughtful comments!!! Happy clubbing friends

Why Strip Clubs Need DJs
I am with most folks that I do not prefer a DJ's annoying banter ... my real preferrence is FREE songs for all the dancers .... I have been paying the Rockola jukebox and its about $20 a day for songs for multiple sets throughout the day. If I could have had the same experience with a DJ for much less $ that is preferred. Money should go to dancers instead of the jukebox. The owner had the audacity to say that the songs are useless and radio is good enough. Lap dances and stage sets are all based on song length. Sirius / Rockola's downfall lies in taking money whilst not playing selected songs, has annoying commercials, song length is extreme, and cuts songs inbetween others. For these reasons a Dj could be beneficial.

This story reminds me of a guy who came in to the club with super torn up jeans ... torn in all the right ways ... we had a lot of fun and I even made one of the holes bigger ... the hole where you could reach right through the pockets and play with his erection ...

The Economy of Strippers in Portland
Samsung- most of the lingerie modeling places are 24/7 ... read reviews for places like G spot, Secret Rendevous, Stilletto Lingerie, Aphrodites, Club Fantasy ... There are a few clubs that open at 7am, more clubs open at 9am, and a few afternoon clubs open at 1pm and more evening clubs opening at 6pm+ with most closing at 2am - 3am with others that close late like I think its 4am at Golden Dragon.

Reflections: A look back
Thanks for sharing Ranukam. I thought it was pretty true and spot on. Lotsoffun I agree that in several ways the strip club scene has ultimately negative undertones. Theres a sense of longing, loneliness mixed with shame and humiliation, on both dancer's and customers alike.

How to bag a stripper (part 2)
At my club there are a lot of young black guys who are typically trying to get the girls to "work" for them (as prostitutes) where they promise that there is far better $ than at the club. There are A FEW older black customers who do tip the dancers AND buy dances. The MAJORITY of paying customers are older white guys, so IME I see the older white guys getting most attention from dancers. As far as dancers dating customers: I HAVE'NT met 1 single dancer EVER it is guaranteed she already has another man in her life no matter what race he is.

Stripper Clothes
at least regular Victorias Secrets and Fredericks of Hollywood (and stores in malls like Sears, Macys, Nordstroms etc) let you try on EVERY item in their stores as well as return items within reason. ALSO some (expensive?) outfits can be destroyed just by wearing them and the 1st night you wear it is the last ... so Keep It Simple ... easy to fix or cheap to replace

Stripper Clothes
The porn shops have a great selection but most do not have dressing rooms, and if they do have dressing rooms some will refuse to let you try on any Panties, Shorts, or Hosiery or Pants (because these items have a crotch). So you are limited in what they let you try on and almost ALL porn shops are 1 time non refundable purchases ONLY. so its a gamble ... I have bought GREAT outfits from the porn shops as well as plenty of others that did not fit and i gifted them to other dancers.

Stripper Clothes
Great article! I personally favor the bright colors too! it really does take time to create a wardrobe and its a fragile existence the more often you use it! i would dream of clothing gifts or a gift certificate to a good store. practicality outweighs sexy every time. one thing that is equally important (atleast for me at my club where the entrance is used by dancers and customers) is looking good in my "regular" clothes that i wear coming and going from the club. i DO NOT wear sweat pants etc because the minute i walk through the door i want to make a good impression. when i am ready to leave guys complement me on my "regular"outfit which is usually just a simple dress with hosiery and flats.

Old Guys "Weird Out" Younger Men in Strip Clubs
at this point younger guys asking me for dates is just an annoyance. these young guys see that im busy giving lap dances to older gentlemen and they wait around until i am done with other paying customers to ask me for a date, "what are you doing after work?" and they pout when i refuse the date. i just dont know if they purposefully dont get it or if they think their approach style is going to be effective. i hate to be rude so i always talk to these younger guys briefly, but as nice as i am, dont they get tired of hearing NO? it will be a good day when these younger guys grow up and stop trying to date a stripper for free and instead earn her affection the old fashioned way with money and gratuities

Old Guys "Weird Out" Younger Men in Strip Clubs
great article and responses!!! I personally favor the older guys; not because they are less grabby, but because we get along well. i enjoy talking and flirting with my friendly older guy customers, most younger guys just cut to the chase and ask me for a date while the older guys know that i am not at the club looking for a date. older guys generally know how to play the game, enjoy playing the game, and to me that turns me on enough to crave the date with the older gentleman. this may sound strange but i like to enjoy my time with the customers and overall i have a better time older guys consistently. younger guys seem to expect me to be 'free' and attempt to waste my time keeping me from paying customers

What's with the Strip Club Business Model?
I am not sure if it is really good business model ... but I give out free lap dances reguraly. I know that by giving away some dances I am going to gain customer appreciation, which I see as more important for the long term than having the $20 immediately. Thanks Papi I always enjoy reading your comments ;)

What's with the Strip Club Business Model?
Great article and thoughtful comments!!! I prefer the dives with the lower stage fees as the upscale clubs often take a large cut of dancer earnings whilst having less frequency of customers as the dives. I think others in town see the value of the dive too ... in regard to 2 for 1 at the dive DJ-less club and girls selecting songs on winamp leads to much longer song averages ... compound with picky dancers changing songs midway, I have given several 30 minute 4 songs lap dances. Once the song gets cut by another dancer I pretty much consider it on the house.
