Like from what I understand you’re not allowed to touch the workers because then it becomes prostitution. So like. A bunch of boys just get together and sit down to watch some girls dancing naked? And they just kinda grin at each other and say “hey isn’t it awesome when there’s boobs?”

You can’t jerk off so they just go to get boners with their buddies? You can do that at home. You can just watch porn with the fellas or have a circlejerk.

I’ve never understood why it’s seen as a straight masculine thing to go to a place where the only thing you can do is get horny with other men.

    None of you people have actually been to strip clubs and it shows.

    A private dance is a lot more intimate than the name implies. If you tip nicely, you can basically get dry-humped to completion if you’re into that. Or you use the opportunity to talk business since some strippers also moon light as sex-workers.

    Of course I don’t frequent these establishments because I’m not a creep but I do understand how they work. It’s like going into a mob front restaurant and asking how they stay in business if the spaghetti tastes horrible. That’s not what they’re selling dear hexbear.

      Yep. It’s a safe® space to negotiate offsite sex work. The club aggressively filters out the the most obvious perverts who get handsy at the mere sight of a boobie. Not to say you can’t make good money just dancing, of course—there’s plenty of white boy incels who are too scared to break the law, and throw away a fortune trying to make a dancer their girlfriend because she was nice to them. But the girls who made bank were always doing side work.

      It’s like going into a mob front restaurant and asking how they stay in business if the spaghetti tastes horrible.

      That’s why you get the lasagna, or go to the mob front pizza places. They load up that pie with absurd amounts of cheese because they have no concept of what is and isn’t profitable. A pound of cheese can make any mid recipe quite palatable!

      I don’t think cumming in your pants is generally what guys are hoping to get from a lap dance? like I’m sure it happens but I don’t think it’s the desired outcome for anyone involved lmao

        Look, no one wants to go to a strip club.

        Going to the strip club to dry hump is the sex-worker equivalent of buying shitty ditch weed from a white guy because you’re too scared to leave suburbia. It’s a shitty, low-risk, compromise from people who don’t want to get into trouble.

          i would simply go to a place where it’s legal if i didn’t think it would be a waste of both our time because i can’t afford enough time to get comfortable with a new person had no reservations about the ethics of putting the john in john brown note.

      Every restaurant that is obviously front has the best and cheapest food in my experience. I assume they just have a cousin who doesn’t want to get involved with the dirty stuff but has a passion for cooking so they stick them in the kitchen and say “do whatever you want”
