Ovulation pays off big for strippers

Unlike their sisters in the animal kingdom, human females don't openly advertise their ovulation. But even without a human version of the baboon's bright pink behind, signs of fertility sneak out, according to several studies. Subconsciously, women dress more provocatively and men find them prettier when it's prime time for conception. And a report from the University of New Mexico demonstrates that the cyclic signs have economic consequences.

Psychologist Geoffrey Miller and colleagues tapped the talent at local gentlemen's clubs and counted tips made on lap dances. Dancers made about $70 an hour during their peak period of fertility, versus about $35 while menstruating and $50 in between.

Miller links the wage fluctuations to changes in body odor, waist-to-hip ratio, and facial features. Despite operating at the upper limits of flirtatiousness already, he says there may also be subtle shifts in their behavior?"how they talk and move when enticing a customer to buy a dance, and how they perform the dance itself."

Women on the pill averaged $37 (and had no performance peak) versus $53 for women off-pill. The contraceptive produces hormonal cues indicating early pregnancy, not an enticing target for a would-be suitor. Birth control could lead to many thousands of dollars lost every year.

The researchers were surprised that almost no one in the business had noticed the pattern before. But if you're a woman in any service-industry job looking to maximize your tips, Miller suggests scheduling more shifts for the phase right before ovulation: "It might help to know about this so that you can exploit these effects."

Stripper: "Hey, honey. What you looking for?"
Psychologist: "I'm here to study your ovulation patterns!"
Stripper: "Hey, I don't do any of that kinky stuff."

I think the psychologist's wife caught him going to the strip club and he came up with this cock and bull story...

Is it true that people who major in sociology do so because they can't major in anything else?

Miller and his colleagues wanted to find out what effect, if any, ovulation had on a stripper's earnings. So he took his experiment out of the lab and recruited 18 strippers from the Albuquerque area who kept track of their earnings and menstrual cycles.

Surprisingly, Miller found that strippers who were in the estrus phase made $354 per shift compared to $90 during the luteal phase and $170 more than during the menstrual phase. The use of birth-control pills didn't help results, with woman on oral contraception earning about $80 less per shift.

The researchers were surprised that almost no one in the business had noticed the pattern before. But if you're a woman in any service-industry job looking to maximize your tips, Miller suggests scheduling more shifts for the phase right before ovulation: "It might help to know about this so that you can exploit these effects."

A long time ago I worked this job driving semi truck in a local type route. Home every day.
One of the lumber mills where I loaded the trailer had a little old style market next to it. There was a hot girl that worked there. Her license plate was YELSHA, which I assumed to be a form of Ashley. Very cute, like 20 years old.

I am not the most handsome guy. At the time I was 6'6", 375ish pounds. She was 5'6", 110ish pounds. She would never be with a guy like me.

I was getting a snack there one night and while paying for my food, she stretched with her arms over her head. Oh yeah. Exposed belly. While the belly was exposed, she moved one hand down from above and slightly stroked in the area of her ovaries. Yes, I know where they are. Right near the waistband of her low rise jeans.

I was (and still am certain) this was some kind of instinctive mating display where she knew she was 'ready' for my seed.

Very odd evening.

There's probably no way in hell she would ever admit to that.
