Well, you clearly have more experience in exposure than i do but check out my thread "Black Girls - Fat Girls etc" and you'll see how people generally reacted to my stats: 5'3, 160lb (looks like 145).

While I got a lot of supportive posts, the general sentiment was that even if guys think I'm sexy, club hiring managers will see that I'm not runway stats and not hire me.

I'm still at the very baby stages of applying - I hear back from my top-choice club tomorrow and my stripperweb cronies say it looks grim.
But hopefully I'll find my spot and so will you. There HAS to be a club (other than sleazebuckets like Arnie's) that a man can go to satisfy is lust for a curvy woman! I get too much attention on a day-to-day basis for there not to be.

There are places for you. Trust me. And no, neither of you have to end up in dumps. I'm working at a middle of the road club right now. It's not upscale but it's definately not a dive. There are several girls there my size and two who are actually bigger than me. Don't listen to discouraging bullshit. How can a dancer who's never been "big" know what kind of money a "big" dancer makes, or know that a "big" dancer will be "damaged"? Take it from a "big" dancer... the money is there and so is the confidence. The trick is definately getting by club management. Just remember, only 95% of them are assholes. You'll find that 5%!

I remember a while back you said that you and your SO were going to go look at some clubs to see which ones you'd be interested in auditioning at. Have you gone yet? And if so, did you find any you like?

Your very pretty and like the other girl was telling you big girls can make money. At a club i used to work at there were many nights when i would bank and the girls who fit the criterea of that a stripper "should be" would make next to nothing if not nothing and i would be like WTF? One girl said you know why you know you you make money "because your thick" seems to be like a fad or somthing here in the south! For ment to like thick women. Can almost always get a black man to buy a dance. I usually shoot for the older ones granted i get the occasional rude comments like once I heard some one say while i was on stage if i wanted to see that i would go home to my wife
and have been asked "arnt you a little big to be a dancer" i just answered wih well im here arnt i?
some of these girls on here are out right mean especially AmyLynn i thought what she had to say was cruel Im big I dance and I make money and do not suffer low self esteem from dancing! Sorry to disapoint anyone!!!! There is some one for every one! If you know what your doing as a dancer and work with your mind you can get alot farther than some one who works solely on their looks just ask around!

I understand that big dancers can make money becuase I once was a big dancer but in AmyLynn's defense she's just telling you the truth, that MOST clubs won't hire overweight dancers. It is very depressing for someone to be rejected from that many clubs, and any large dancer knows that it hurts when someone ask you if your a little big to be a dancer, she's just sparing you the pain that a lot of girls don't realize is out there in what we do. True, we all have to have thick skin ready for rejection but as a bbw dancer you need to be ready for about 3 times that amount.
The typical earnings are less & it is much harder to get hired at the nicer clubs.

Do you want to stay the size you are now? If yes, then good luck and from what I have told you before good marketing when it comes to who you are will get you hired somewhere.

If no, then work-out & eat right drop 40lbs and then you'd be amazed not only how good you feel and look but how well that self-cofidence will effect the money you will make.

You do have a great look but you have to remember we sell a fantasy and when it comes down to it, it all depends on if the dance manager hiring you thinks you can be someone's fantasy. And what kind of clubs you want to work at, when I was big I could only get hired at below average clubs and if thats what you like then so be it.

So now I know a lot of SW girls think I'm being mean, but I WAS a large dancer and while true some men like it the max earnings I ever made was $180 a night, I took time off and got in shape and now I average $400. Not making the money some people make will begin to depress someone.

this may have been tru for you but my average when i worked at a nicer club still being large was 250-300 a night which was about the same as the top girls there and better than most of the girls there this is during the off season in daytona beach
it all depends on how you hustle
yes it is tru for me that i could make probalby double if not tripple what i make not if i was smaller and continued with my same attitude and skills. it is true bigger girls have a harder time making it into nicer clubs but as for me i know if i could get into the better clubs in my town being Molly Browns and Lollipops here in Daytona Beach i know i could make money if they would let me get my foot in the door.

lilith... I've had many, many, many guy friends and most guys dont even see
"runway model thin"as sexy they do on tv and magazines but most men dont even assossiate them as real people men see women in a weird light men can tell you they like super skinny but i dont knowa man who would rather have 100lbswoman instead of 130 or 140 ibs girl or bigger. thin isn in anymore men dont like seeing bones its a turn off
