Mara. Melanie # 2 ‘cuz she’s just a high class prostitute with an annuity. Obama and Biden are past their prime. I’ve got too much contempt for a woman who would Marry DeSantis since it couldn’t have been for the money

Now that I know the translation of the tat mentioned in the first example, I’m making a beeline to the first dancer I see wearing it

1. Do see a lot of reviews that appear either to be AI-generated or from non-native English speakers; 2. An easy workaround to maintain VIP is to recycle a perfectly acceptable review and resubmit every month or so. I see that a lot. Unless the adjudicators recall the review or go back and look at recent reviews for the club (which is a lot to expect), there's no apparent reason not to approve

Maybe you should be paying me

Last time I was in Desire, either Kayla or Kaylee (didn't even know there was one of each) was the only dancer I could flag down in the time I had allotted (time enough for one drink). She was a pretty-enough and very pleasant GND type, but within 5-10 minutes of conversation she came out and said, apropos of nothing, that she doesn't do extras in VIP and that most guys therefore aren't interested in getting dances from her. I prefer to use my precious lap dance dollars as auditions for VIP, but the reverse psychology (or guilt-tripping or whatever it was) worked on me so I took her back for a couple of lap dances before cutting bait and heading over to Club Fantasies to get some ashes hauled. I don't know if it was expectation bias or confirmation bias or whatever, but I don't recall the LDs being anything to write home about

My hearing's already bad from a lifetime of doing stuff. The music in the club often makes it impossible to have any kind of conversation with the dancers. Don't want to keep saying "What?" all the time, so I just end up nodding and smiling and faking it till it's "go/no go" on a private dance. At least it's good training for the non-English speaking dancers

Guessing this review got approved because, after sifting through the nonsense (including the pointless, "dog bites man" anecdote about a dancer getting in a patron's face), the adjudicators saw some theoretically useful dancer info. However, the information is only useful if it comes from a reliable source. The reference to PO dancers giving "air dances" is a tell. The only explanations for air dances at PO that come to mind are personality issues or hygiene issues. The overall tone of the review, including gratuitous coded references to women as "hoes", along with the OP's reactions to some of the comments from adjudicators and others, suggest that the issue may be the former.

While this is a remarkably civil discussion, I've gotta say that if Founder would ban politics from the Discussion board and bring back Stripper Photos, it would be a more than fair trade.

I upgraded one fave for a new one at the same club. Both Brazilians and, unbeknownst to me, they had a bad history with each other outside the club. Louca. After an awkward confrontation, former fave just acts like I don’t exist

Based on the reviews and my lone experience seems like this place is hit or miss. I had a striking AA dancer there show me her butt plug and kitty in the LD area, which isn’t all that private. I’d just come from Delilah’s 10 minutes up the road so didn’t feel in a position to try to take things further at that moment

Damn. I did that. Funeral of an old friend from back home, which I rarely get back to. I knew it would be like a de facto high school reunion except mostly with cool people I liked. Imagined I might run across a divorcee who was up for a roll in the hay, al la Tom Berenger and Jobeth Williams in The Big Chill. Didn't happen, of course.

Miss your pics.

The $30 to buy a dancer a drink thing really bugs me, but I’m not a fan of this place, or the place next door, anyway. Get outside Boston, baby!

Miss your pics. You’re the best thing to happen to Akron since vulcanized rubber

1. first mention of scurrilous I've seen in a review. I like it. 2. I hate that Latin music with no beginning/end to songs

If there's a repeat performance and she asks for more, you didn't pay enough the first time. If she accepts the same amount, you paid more than you had to.

This kinda makes me want to go to this club. So there's that

Red flags abound here

Gives a peak behind the curtain of this woman's life. Travels 10 urban blocks on her own steam to haggle over an extra $20 for a BBBJ, then tries to hit for another $20 and a ride home after. Makes me rethink my recent interest in LaPearl/OSC. This is no party girl who enjoys what she does. I prefer to keep my casual encounters with dancers very surface level, because the underlying life stories are sometimes not going to be great.

Must be a very narrow window of time for fun in those two places. Went in around 4:30 yesterday. Not a girl in sight, upstairs or downstairs. Guys hanging out in front said there were a couple "getting ready", but I wasn't going to sit around by myself waiting on that

Was there yesterday. In and out inside of 20-25 minutes. I asked my dancer's recommendation for whether to go to the private or communal room for our "fun" and she said private, so I went with it. She had no apparent inhibitions. I'd think that desk guy, who I've never seen leave the desk, would need a stool to peer through the window

Glad you had a good time. To think somebody else was posting an inquiry in the Discussions section about "How to get extras". Apparently, the answer is to go to the right club with enough cash, and things take care of themselves

The age-old question: "why is it that the ones you want in your face won't let you, while the ones that you don't want try to shove it in your face"? Gotta admit, I haven't encountered one that was so rank I wouldn't dive right in. But I'm still a youngster

The aliens flooding NYC have pending claims for asylum and are therefore in the country legally. Just as I would steer clear of any suspected trafficking situation or a dancer who was so mentally altered as to call into question her ability to knowingly consent to what she is doing, I would also avoid exploiting somebody acting out of desperation. If it came to down it, I'd rather deal with a fat, older woman (who still deserves to retain her feminine pronouns no matter how unattractive she is). But, I'd probably just call it a night

Place is a rip off. Walked across the street once from Taboo, paid the $20, walked through the door and saw once obese dancer sitting with a guy drinking out of a pint bottle in a paper bag. Next day, somebody posted a review here describing the same experience. Before my next visit to Taboo, somebody had posted a positive review of XO. So, when I finished my Taboo visit, I walked across the street again, but this time asked if I could peep through the big wood door before paying the $20. When the lady said no, I was out of there
