WHERE should a Black girl work?
Well... I'm trying to get some feedback on which club I should work at in January '04. I'm African American...so Would I make more money in St Martin, where most of the tourist are European? Or Italy, near an American military base? Also there's Puerto Rico. Anyone work at any of these locations?
Thanks and Happy Holidays ;)

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
Hi i'm also a "sista" and from what i have heard black girls really do bank in Italy..... I also want to work in a few European countries before moving to the US.
I have also read on here that girls do well in Iceland and i have heard that they do pretty well in Switzerland too.
Anyway i'm not a dancer yet so i don't know too much, hopefully some of the other girls here will be able to help you out.
Good luck..... Seraya.

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
NAMOI - Do you have many black girls who dance in greece?
-
Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
I'm not a dancer yet either, I only go by what I read in here. Anyway, I heard that Iceland ( I know right) was a really good spot for women of color simply because more of the women up there are pale blonds. I've also heard that you can make serious money in Alaska. You make alot of money up there because they do alot of oil digging up there. But you have to do your homework though. You dont want to just go up there and be with the polar bears haha
Hmm we "sistas" have got to stick together! :grouphug:

Naomi, wasn't there a post a while back from you saying that you were only interested in European typed women? :detective:What brought on the change? How many women of color are currently at your club?

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
That's very lame of you, deez. Bambi69, go for Puerto Rico :-*

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
I don't know if any American black girls are aware of this, but there are LOTS of European black people! 'European' does not necessarily mean 'white'.

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?

Actually I was quite aware of it. It's just that in Naomi's posts, she never distinguished what types of european women she wanted at her club. You're right, European does not only include "white" that is why I was looking for clarification. More importantly, I still would like to know how many black women ( AMERICAN or EUROPEAN) women work in your club?

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
Bambi I thing St Martin would be a good place to work. I am a West Indian woman and European men who travel to the Carribbean love black women. If you could fake a Caribbean accent even better.
-
Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
Thanks for the feedback ladies and gents... Yes I do know that there are many ethnic groups besides whites in Europe. I also remember Naomi telling me before that she could only hire Europeans due to the working visas. I guess it may be too expensive to get visas for Americans. I'm probably going to go to St Martin, I'll save Europe for the spring when the tourist come.

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
St. Martin.....take me with youuuuuuuuuu!! Hehe ;)

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
the place to dance is where your skin color is in the minority. Looking different draws attention and gives you an exotic look. Exotic drives men crazy

This is what i think too.... personally i love the thought of being one of the very few women of colour in a club. This is why i want to dance in certain countries in europe where they LOVE black women.

just an observation from what I have seen ( i am white and my definition of beauty is colorblind,) I think a lot of white guys are attracted to girls of color (I know I am, but unlike most, I admit it and have no problem letting others know). the problem is that a lot of clubs seem to think that Black=drugs=bad image. so they don't like to hire women of color..... or let me put it this way. if you are black and the club will hire white gals that are "7" or above. you have to be almost perfect to get there interest...... my advice to you is to maybe find a club in your area that has a lot of african american dancers..... there, you will find all us that like women of color, but the problem is that a lot of these clubs are, uh, more permisive.... but from what I have noticed, they seem to be morre siterly too. none of the "cattyness" of more "high class" clubs....
but it is up to you. my advice would be, if there is a club you want to work at, by all means, go and and try to get a gig.... the worst they can say is no. I live in the southeast usa and I here the "black" clubs have almost as many white guys as brothers.... that should tell you somthing.....
anyway good luck.... :D

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
I agree with bigred upto a point.....
I have found that a LOT of guys LOVE women of colour, whether they choose to admit that is another story.... the good thing about strip clubs is that it allows these men to play out those fantasies.
The problem however is with the SC manager's who have a problem with hiring black women due to sterotyping etc. which sucks bcos they really do not have a clue!
I have no problem being one of the minorities in an upscale club for the simple fact of being different which is a good thing i think.
Seraya.

To be short............anywhere she wants!

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
Yes its true I can "apply" to work anywhere I want, but the truth is no matter how "beautiful" I am, a lot of clubs will simply say they're not hiring right now. (another way of saying, 'we have enough non-whites at this time') If you have a high class club or even a average club that has a 90% or above white clientle coming in, they simply won't hire many non-white ladies, period. I've been dancing for the past six years, mostly in Chicago, and I see this to be true. They don't want to get too many black women for fear of bringing in too many other men of color, or playing of too much R&B, or rap music. Here in LA it seems more open to all races.
Sure I know white men love different ethinc ladies, but like Big Red said, they are afraid to show it and spend their money. Especially if they are with other white men. I guess this may always be the case...
Either way, I have decided to go and try St Martin, and start Europe in the spring. I think being the "minority" there will make me a bit more than it would here in the US. Thanks gents and ladies. :-*

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
Have you decided of any specific places in Europe Bambi?
I've always wanted to go to Melbourne, Austrailia. If I get all of my paperwork together for school, I may get to study abroad over there.
-
Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
I'm considersing Sweden, Denmark, Amsterdam, and possibly Greece in the Spring. I could do England and Ireland fairly easy, since there are many ethnic dancers already there. But I doubt they'll pay for any airfare, especially in the spring. I don't have much info except what I read from agencies websites, or what other dancers on this site have suggested. Australian clubs want you to work at least two months to get full airfare paid and accomodations. It is summer there now. I can't do more than a one month contract.

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
HI Bambie from what i have heard the Uk isn't doing to well lately as far as the clubs go.... honestly. I can't speak for the whole of england but i know london is getting worse and i have heard that the rest of the UK isn't that much better....... Your more likely to earn more money traveling other states. Also i wouldn't advice Ireland i haven't heard any good stories regarding clubs there.
Do you know if black women do well in Australia?
Seraya.

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
I don't really know about Australia with ethnic ladies, but I assume they do ok. Aussie Vee on SW can probably tell you more about the clubs there. I know a lot of Asians live there and of course the Aborigines are many times very dark skinned people, but I don't know if any of those ladies work in the clubs. (i'm sure some do) ;)

Re:WHERE should a Black girl work?
I forgot to ask... What's up with London and the clubs there? I've only been to London a couple of times, once checking out Stringerfellows(?). Seemed really busy during Christmas time during the week. But that was two years ago. Lapstatic agency promotes a lot of clubs in the UK, I thought this would be a good time of year, especially with the tourist. Is spring a better time or not really.
thanks
