Gonna back up funonthaside that generally dancers who charge above norms actually give worse dances.

Montreal: $20 CAD dances w/ heavy grinding.
review comment

There is a good chance that I was just fortunate to click with a dancer who was a veteran of two way contact clubs, but had just started at Sassy's. I guess my experience indicates that it may be more allowed than previously understood. On the other hand, it would stand to reason that some dancers might pick Sassy's specifically b/c it is one way contact. My best advice is to enjoy a nice mid-day meal, chat with a dancer about her dances, and recognize that Portland is awash in clubs (though not as many day time options).

I'm very loathe to post anything political online, but ...
I think this thread has a lot of misinformation, or at least incomplete perspectives. First off, the part of the point of Project 2025 is to migrate power from the states and congress and into the executive branch. Whether or not Trump would be on board with P2025 or whether or not it will be successful is up for debate. However, a big point of it is to bypass the protections that SkiBum and others have pointed out. It is certainly something to be concerned about.
Sinclair's statement about Heritage <> Trump is sorta kinda accurate. More likely, he'll support it if he thinks it will either piss off his political enemies or buy him adulation. He'll block it if he thinks it will do the opposite. I think that reasoning about Trump's principals driving policy is a fools game.
Of note, Speaker Johnson would certainly be in support of a Federal ban of strip clubs. At this point, it seems likely that the Senate will flip Republican and the House will flip Democrat, but really who knows how that will shake out.

VIP rooms provide normal MA style two way contact non-extras lap dances, and probably 13 or the 15 minutes will be spent grinding.

Yes--sorry about the typo. Clearly 18+ and under 21 for that section.
I enjoyed all my dances, but I think they were all with 21+ ladies. At $20 a song the risk is very low if you find one that appeals to you.

Two comments here--rather than impeaching the credibility of the entire rankings, I'm really quite interested in hearing specifically about "Men's Club of Charlotte" as its reviews don't indicate why it would have a place at the top.
With regards to Desire being clearly better than Foxy Lady and Boardroom, I disagree with @manuelleabore, but I know that we focus on different things in our visits.

Men's Club of Charlotte has made it to #2. Is this justified or even in the ballpark?

Incoherent. This has way too much useless detail about your trip and movements throughout the club. Additionally, your writing voice makes it very hard to read. Please consider more direct sentences, and getting rid of "upon entering, XXX ' and stuff like this: "Taking a moment before sitting, XXXX."
There are also a lot of non-sentences offset by periods that are just multi-word nouns with no actual verbs.

Is that a typo in #1? Do you mean $150 instead of $300 as in the room is cheaper so there is more money left over (zero-sum)? Or do you mean there are actually places where hotel rooms normally cost $30 and $150 is considered expensive?

Techman: VIP would be nude. I don't recall if the stage show was or not, as I wasn't very focused on it.

Mr SkiBum,
Two examples in your neck of the woods of restaurants sharing parking areas with clubs:
Boardroom Cafe and Ten's in Salsbury.

They have three private booths that are 2 way contact. I forget the exact rate, but it is typical for MA/RI (so something like 130-160 for 15 minutes).

The stage is behind the bar not attached and the LD room is to the left of the stage....but despite my objections if you look at the reviewer's other reviews, he is legit. I'd withdraw my rejection if it was a thing.

When I bike, kayak, take the subway or arrive by seaplane, I get my drink on. If I drive or arrive by helicopter I enjoy unsweetened ice tea.

Book GuyI write it like I mean it, but mostly they just want my money.
Of Boston's 7 clubs, 2 are currently in the TUSCL top 40. Portland, OR has some great clubs, and some shit clubs, but it would b/c of the sheer number of them.
The thing that creates a good club culture is competition. DejaVu has an effective monopoly on San Francisco, and it sucks. Portland, ME is controlled by Rick's and it sucks. The chain in the Carolinas is supposed to be terrible. Competition creates good customer experiences, unless you find yourself in a race to the bottom (e.g. airlines). Markets with diversified ownership will naturally lead to having some standout clubs.

In terms of things to do, food scene, and bar scene, Montreal would also be a great choice.

@gammanu95 and @bookguy I'm going to gently suggest that you are confusing enforcement of laws with actual laws. Your liberal hell-holes of Boston and West Coast Portland are full nude, full contact, legal weed, and alcohol in clubs. Liberal Seattle is about to be the same, and even more liberal Providence is already the same. Conservative culture warrior states Texas and Florida are busy passing restrictive strip club laws, and already have absurd "one foot on the ground" and "always wear shoes laws." Sure, there are rumors on this board that some parts of TX and FLA don't actually enforce their laws. I won't even touch on the dire TUSCL reports from the bible belt.
Now if by "fun" you are referring to certain acts that are illegal everywhere in the States except for parts of Nevada, then we are definitely discussing discretionary enforcement rather than regulations.
