to begin with, I'm not speculating, this is based on reality... Soldiers (sailors too) are under an incredible amount of stress. It's hard to sleep, it's hard to eat in a combat situation. When you realize it's been a couple of weeks maybe since you last got a boner, that really weighs on you. So, you set out to prove that you're normal, like all the other 20 year olds, and you go to the club. I disagree with the headline and the article, the reason you do it is not "to forget war" but it's more like "to prove you're still normal"

I think strippers' instas are pretty worthless here in Baltimore. If she only gives you her insta, she's just not that into you. Now if you get the cell phone number? That is a good indication that she'll reach out to *you* when she'll be at the club. Your mileage may vary, I'm not familiar with Seattle.

it's not about the cover charge, it's that even the best club in DC isn't worth the time.

Good review. The librarian...maybe that's Cherish or Nikki? If so, they're both fun.

I like more experienced dancers and after a few years of the profession they all have incredible tolerances. My current fave can put down an endless stream of jack and diet cokes and I don't think it affects her at all, even though if I drank that much I would be lying on the sidewalk outside puking. And these aren't watered down midget size "dancer drinks," she's pouring them herself.

I don't think it's racist @founder. I don't know what it's like around the country, but here in Maryland if my friend described a club as a "black" club I would know what he meant and it would be less about the skin tone of the dancers but more of the vibe of the place.

If anything is competition for strip clubs, it's SA. I think camming/OF girls have video production skills, not people skills. And any girl worth it in the club definitely has people skills.

One thing I like about occasionally going to clubs off the beaten path is that sometimes you find hidden gems. One of the hottest dancers I've ever seen was at a club in West Virginia (but on the eastern side) and another was at a dirtbag club in Toledo, Ohio of all places. They were so good looking I didn't mind standing out like I did.

for the room pricing: at Millstream the stated price is the fee to the club and the expectation from the dancer is that you give her that much also. So a "$90 room" is more like $180.

It depends where you are (for example Baltimore is below a lot of places) but I'd guess $800-$1000 as the going rate.

good review, exactly my recent experience. I'm with you, this is Baltimore after all and I wouldn't be flashing all that cash if it were me.

if you're looking for "girl next door" type get over to reddit and search for any of the onlyfans boards. There's even a r/OnlyFansPromotions one. Or r/onlyfansgirls101. See something you like and that user will have an OF link for sure in their bio. But my goodness, I don't know why you'd pay for that when there's so much. Some of the girls even have a free OF subscription!

Endgame: when you want to leave, just leave. Walk away. Doesn't matter for the night or forever. If it sucks...hit da bricks!

@Jimmy I haven't been to a DC strip club in years, mostly because when I have gone in the past, it's a lot of money just to look at the girls and get an air dance. I've mostly stayed in Baltimore, PG County, and wherever the hell Millstream is. You don't think this place will be any good, do you?

very reasonable @NJBalla. Particularly "3.) Dancers will be very territorial as regulars make cut back on visits." I have seen a little bit of this starting up already

A lot of good points here, but from my experience (Baltimore) the talent level is about the same as it always was. Maybe if you're from Vegas or Atlanta or another place like that your dancers might have left for camming or OF. But there were never any "10s" in Baltimore that stay in Baltimore.

Yeah, I think I agree with @motorhead...porn favorites don't really exist anymore? It's just an endless bunch of randos getting stuck in dishwashers or catching their stepbrothers in compromising situations, never to be heard from again. You're lucky if you see anyone's face at all. But if I had to vote, it would be Jessica Kyle/littlebuffbabe.

Mostly dead is slightly alive

I like going out without my phone, because of my job it's one of the few times in my life I don't have a phone or a computer in front of me. As far as dancers with their phones, that's fine. Yes, some girls overdo it but if she wants to sit there half naked while I stare at her ass for free, I don't have a problem with that. One time I was in a club and it was completely dead, and a girl who was *on stage* pulled out her phone while she was dancing which I thought was very funny.

I believe it, I'm in Maryland so it has to be more acute of a problem in crypto-heavy locations like Miami/S Florida. Maybe 2-3 months ago there were nerdy-looking guys with crypto t-shirts making it rain here, and had backpacks full of cash. At the time, I felt like it was a bad idea to be walking around with that much money in Baltimore, but to each his own. I haven't seen those guys around recently.

wow, she's a 10/10

DC is terrible still, you're not missing anything.

nice

Best food is off strip. I could eat at Casa Don Juan and Good Pie in the "arts district" on Main Street every day.

that's absolutely worth it
