It's kinda like going to a football game: you eat out, you drink, you talk some trash and just generally let your Y chromosome off its leash for a while. I mean, the girls are nice to look at and all, but it's really not any kind of "erotic" experience. Furthermore, unless you're as dense as a brick, it's painfully obvious that they don't really like you much either.......unless you happen to be spending gobs of money, in which case they suddenly love you.

In short, they're fun once in a while for someone's bachelor party or whatever, but that's about it. They are what they are and people who take them too seriously are creepy.

Exactly. It's an atmosphere thing. The music, the women, the beer, the lighting, watching the pathic bums on titty row that are completely glazed over watching the woment, ect. It's just an experience like no other. Hell, I don't think I've even had any sort of arrousal whenever I went to a strip club. It's just an experience that you can't really describe well without actually having done it.

Women don't understand it...but us men don't understand all the hooplah about a bridal shower and the wedding stuff either.

<clearing throat...so to speak> ;)
speak for the women YOU know...

i like going to strip clubs - either with a guy i'm dating, or another girl - what does that make ME??
Either an open-minded person or an attention whore who likes to say provacative stuff in online forums to get pathetic horny, lonely geeks whipped into a frenzy. Time will tell. ;)

I asked her how much, she says "$5 to look, $10 to touch. I quickly did a little math and figured with the exchange rate, the $10 option was really a hot deal. Where else can you grope and fondle a young hot chick for the price of a #2 at McDonalds? Gotta love our neighbors to the North.
:D

Woah, it was only 17 cents for a lap dance?!

I think that qualifies for a thread in the Hot Deals forum. :D

Its all about doing the guy thing and kicking back with your boys...basically if you have to ask it isnt worth explaining. Just go there with a bunch of your buds and kick back relax and enjoy the show and youll see what its all about.

BTW Scarpozzi...is your mom still doing the donkey show at the strip club :p heheh j/k

I resent the atmosphere there the most. Middle-age and younger dudes who hope to get some fun out of watching something they'll never have, then going back to work or school the next day...

Aren't there better ways to get away from your every-day problems with homework, boss, drugs, or whatever it is you're into? Besides, you can't really talk to your friends there because they're all staring at the bouncing treasure!

Eh.

Ah but you see, there's the fun in it. You go there to laugh at the very people you described. And you get to see boobies and slam beers as a bonus :p

Yea, personally I dont see the point. You cant touch or anything, so I would prefer to look at the naked women on the internet... or go see my girlfriend. It's just like paying money to be sexually frusterated.

I just come home to the wife and have her do her little strip tease. :)

So what does your wife charge???


:)

Can't say, but I'll be paying for it the rest of my life.

I should start a new thread...
WHY NOT TO GO TO A STRIP-CLUB

This is an honest to god true story...heck I should sell this story I am sure somebody would interview the guy.

Ran into this kid at Walmart from high school whos nose was obviously broken...it was bruised and monsterous....anyway, as the story goes and was later verified by some more friends who were there...he got a lap dance and the idiot slut fell when she was standing over top of him...her crotch landed right on his face and broke his nose.
Now personally I dont like the thought of any nasty girl being over top of me..

So you are having a boner while yacking with your male friends drinking beers. That simply sounds weird. I ain't prude, but am sure cheap!

I am turned on by girls on the Internet or just in magazines, so I know I'm not gay :) However, just watching them dance and move, but not being able to touch (or do more, wink-wink), is annoying. So why go there and see those mostly perfect ladies, when you can't have one?!

P.S. I'm 25 years old and NOT a virgin, nor do I wank off to the PC World magazine.

(Don't get me wrong, I have no issues with nudity or with selling it like this, I just don't see how it can be enjoyable in an environment like a strip club).

P.S. New idea: what if when a stripper comes up to me, I say "Hey, you have amazing eyes. Wanna get outta here? :)"

because i would rather watch naked women dancing in front of me while i'm enjoying some beer rather then watching the smell drunk at the end of the bar drink himself into oblivion.

your new idea? if it ever happens... best get youself a large box of rubbers :p

Why not? Beneath your lofty intellectual standards? Some of you sound rather like Elledan blathering endlessly about how he's forsaking physical love and relationships in the pursuit of higher knowledge.

It's just not that big a deal.

I used to go to strip clubs. Then I met a girl who happened to be a stripper and we got into a relationship. We broke up a few months later (not because she was a stripper, I was totally cool with that) and after that I have never looked at those places the same way. I just feel now that it's a waste of money. That girl I was going out with, she owned a nice house, car, paid all her bills, and still put away $1,250.00 a week in a money market account. All from stripping 4 nights a week. No one deserves to be pulling in that kind of money for what those girls do. It's just a waste.

Do you guys have no freinds...no night out with the boys? Or you guys to cheap or shy and embarrased :confused:

get out more there is a world beyond the nice soothing glare of your monitor.


Geez you guys are closed minded for the most part. My buds and i dont start off there, we go usually to a sports bar with pool tables. Mess around get caught up with the latest news, then maybe go to the strip club...usually the nice one, and go to a cheaper one as the money runs low..its just a way to have fun.

People that i know go to them go on occasion, dont spend their life there...well except for one guy...but he is the exception.

Your not there to pick up, your there to just have fun with a bunch or your buds.

you need to find a different jurisdiction if the girls aren't rubbing you all over and blowing on your nuts through your pants.

The first girl to blow on my nuts gets slapped in the face :)

Regardless of the type of physical contact involved, I don't care for it unless there is a.. conclusion, a release, a happy ending, so to speak. Otherwise, it's like reading a book whose last chapter is missing. Or seeing the first hour of the movie. You know what I mean?
