It’s not like the magic mike movie where the girls go crazy (and even there it’s mostly kind of humorous....) - the other way around: men frequenting stripper joints are quite seriously staring-ogling-looking; also drooling ..... some go alone to do I don’t want to know what in the VIP room, or to try to hook up elsewhere after they close ..... and if in a group setting they sometimes act like they’re laughing about it, but in reality they’re still drooling ....... I wouldn’t date a guy like that ever. I find it rather pathetic and sad, and a waste of money on top of that. But to each their own. I just couldn’t respect the guy. Is all. And ok fine, if you have a group of college boys who’ve never been in a club like that, and they feel like they’re “men” now because they’ve reached their legal drinking age and they have their own dorm room far away from mom, that’s fine - for them it’s just an adventure. I wouldn’t be proud if I were their mom, but whatever. Not gonna date them kids anyways. - but for a grown man - no respect. Saaaawwwy! And to the other bolded: I think men who go there (often) would probably rather prefer to hide it from their GFs and/or wives. They can’t drool freely, and they can’t try to get laid, either. So why bring the GF? Not saying there aren’t those couples who enjoy that kind of entertainment, but my guess is they’d rather NOT bring their significant other. Your description is spot on! If there was more of a demand from women to see male strippers, there’d be way more male strip shows and even strip clubs with exclusively male strippers out there. It’s just not the same. Women just don’t view male strippers as erotic in the same way men view female strippers. I think most strip club regulars are single (or in long distance relationships). A lot of regulars are lonely, and lack the social skills to attract female attention they don’t have to pay for. I guess we can say it’s sad, but to them, it makes them happy. There are also loads of men who travel for work and go to strip clubs regularly at the cities they travel to. Not all these men are single. Edited August 21, 2020 by NomiMalone

This is what I would do if I were super annoyed...and I'd really have fun with it. First it would start with going to see male dancers if any in my area. Then I'd start watching films/shows of male reviews and let him catch me. Then I'd escalate by letting him see how "excited" watching these shows make me. If that doesn't prompt some ' discussions' on the topic, I'd start buying posters of scantily glad men and putting them up on the wall. I'd have to be pretty ticked off to go to this extreme to be 'heard.' Hopefully not in a relationship where it would escalate to this level as that does show signs of deeper issues...lack of communication or compatibilities. I'm not disturbed by guys watching strippers. I wouldn't care if my guy went for special occasions (I would think he had issues if he became a regular thing). I'm more disturbed for the girls stripping. I have a bit of a puritanical view on career choices, and women have many options these days. I feel the same about Hooters/Twin Peaks girls, or any young girl using her body to attract the 'wrong' type of attention. Good luck, OP.

I just looked up the average pay rate for strippers in my city and it's $75ph. Not many jobs pay that kind of hourly rate. If the woman is paying her way though Uni, compare this to working in a supermarket for $23ph and I find it easy to understand why someone who looks good and can move would make this choice. Likewise, if a woman isn't academic and isn't going to have a 'career', it's a great way to work hard and save up a nest egg before moving onto something more respectable.

It's not a condemnation on people who strip but there really are other jobs that could compete financially at the same skill level. Examples include cleaning services, bartending/waiting tables in a high end establishment, and definitely commission based sales (outside of retail). As a corporate financial auditor, I remember the first time I was reviewing payroll and saw the sales staff made double my pay. They had no college degrees and worked comfortable schedules while I had three college degrees and worked no less than 70 hours per week plus 14 hours commuting in a high stress environment. My housekeepers in my business make $75-100USD/hour when they work fast. In college I waited tables and would make $100-150USD/day working 5 hours. It was enough to get me by when subsidized by student loans. It's just values. Sex/using one's body for money (including stripping) may the oldest profession, but it does carry a stigma in certain parts of the world. I think that stigma affects a person's self-esteem. Also, I think many girls feel ashamed about a stripping past when they have increased their social status. Those I've talked with communicate a message of doing what they felt they had to do, but none of them ever bragged about it as a great lucrative fulfilling job. I've only talked with a few over the years about it, so ymmv. ☺
kismetkismet Posted August 22, 2020 Posted August 22, 2020 I don't mind if it's something that's done once in a blue moon for bachelor parties or that sort of thing. But I think it's pretty dirtbaggy when that's a guy's regular Friday night out. Not because I see it as cheating necessarily, it's just not a good sign for what kind of person they are.. Like, maybe get a hobby that isn't random boobs?
