    Default I think I've got to admit it: I'm really a stripper!

    And this is why I say this:

    Sales have been low lately, and even management's been a lot more pissy. The other girls are getting worse and worse, and everyone's just been tense as hell. Now I've only been doing this 2.5 months, and yet I think I just really realized this Monday night that I really AM a stripper, and here's why:

    This weekend sucked. BAD! I got drugged on Friday night and had to pay out, leaving me with only about $125 at 11 PM (and I should've made $300-$400 on a Friday night). Saturday I was still sick, so I couldn't work then. Sunday was okay, but just really, really slow (I think I made $150, and my Sundays average about $250). Then came Monday...

    I have NEVER felt like as much of a whore as I did on Monday. I got ONE dance all night, and that was after last call. Well, that's not entirely true... One dance I did stiffed me (although I still think that was accidental... long story). Four people told me they'd let me dance for them if I'd show them my pussy (this is in a topless club!). Two told me they'd let me dance if I'd give them half-price dances (which is prohibited by our club, and besides, what kind of asshat tells a dancer that she's not worth his $20?). And the creme de la creme of the night: a drunk Mexican with his friends, and the guy takes me to the back. But as I get up to start dancing for him, he tells me that he doesn't want me to dance for him. He wants me to come to his apartment and have sex with him. Now he did offer me $300 for it, but I'm not NEARLY that stupid! I know that if I was dumb enough to get near him outside the club, he'd gang-rape me with all his little drunk-ass homies. FUCK THAT!

    So I got exceedingly pissed, spent about a half-hour in the dressing room after that just sobbing, wiped me eyes, and went to talk to the DJ before my final set. I had the DJ play Pink's "U Make Me Sick", followed by Pink's "U and Ur Hand". I did a violent and angry stage dance (the one guy who ended up buying a dance from me said it looked like I was "attacking the hell out of that pole") and stormed off the stage to go to my next stage. I was PISSED! I was seven-shots-of-Cuervo pissed.

    And yet, I knew even as I was crying in the dressing room that as pissed off and hurt as I was, I'd be back again next Friday to try again.

    I got home that night and started venting to my roomie, and he said, "That's the way it goes sometimes. You sure you still want to do this?" and it occurred to me that at no time during this whole thing did I ever actually think about quitting. And I think that's when I really realized...

    I guess I really AM a stripper!

    Anyways, a couple of days for emotional recovery time, some violent sex, and a pint of Dutch Chocolate, and I'm all better now. And ready to go kick some ass when I go back to work Friday.

    Sounds like you took out your anger in a good way. Kick that pole's ASS!

    Sometimes you just have to go to the DR and cry and then get back out there. Sounds like you had a very rough weekend. Make sure you take extra good care of yourself this week-healthwise and emotionally. *hugs*

    Not sure how this adds up to 'really' being a stripper. An actual stripper is a chick who ceremoniously (to some degree or another) takes off her clothes for pay on a fairly regular basis.

    Am I right?

    I think she meant that she sees it as her job now, not just something she can walk away from. ???

    I can understand this - feeling like it was a rite of passage of sorts. I actually do remember feeling something similar after the rosy glow of the first few weeks wore off and I had a truly shitty night full of the exact kind of obstacles she described. Like an initiation (the hazing kind).

    yea. relax girls, if she's been doing in 2.5 months that's 10 weeks and like <50 shifts. come on.

    i feel you. no matter what, stripping beats any other job. good for you and i hope you continue to improve in the future, and while the girls on here have a point about what's *not* a stripper, they sure were mean in the way they said it (it was not relevant) and you'll grow an amazing tuff skin and ignore girls who act like that IRL and that's what's up.

    I agree. Maybe they didn't mean for it to come off as harsh, but some of the replies... damn .

    I had the same revelation last week (and this is after doing this for 2 years)...was just burnt the fuck OUT on dancing, and went out and applied for other jobs. Then realized that I'm most likely not going to follow up on them b/c with all its frustrations and bad $ nights and rude custies and what have you...dancing *still* beats out other jobs IMHO. It's not something I want to run away from just b/c I'm going through a rough time now. I'll get through it and I WILL make stripping work brilliantly for me again. Maybe that's projecting, but that's how I read the OP's post too.

    Anyway. Burnout happens. Bad nights happen, and as much as some of us would like to pretend we have teflon skins 24/7...things get to everyone occasionally. I've seen uber-hustlers (who normally blow everyone else away and seem to be on their games all night every night) sobbing in the DR because something happened that night that just hit a particular nerve and made them snap. And really...no one on here has EVER been ripped off by a custy before? Bad nights happen to everyone occasionally. Slumps happen too. Doesn't mean you're pathetic or not a "real" stripper...it just means you're human. How you deal with it makes all the difference.

    Good for you, MorganTX, for picking yourself up again. The frustrating times are temporary; It will get better.

    I definitely read it as "I had a super bad time, but I will dust myself off and go back because I now know this is where I belong."

    Props to you hun... Stripperific, for real.

    I didn't take it mean at all...

    I did want to clarify a couple of things:

    First, I felt as though everyone in my club saw me as a whore, and that really was difficult. I work in a pretty good club, and generally, the guys are REALLY great, pleasant, friendly, and fun to be around. I don't know what was going on that night, but I've never had SO MANY people assume that I was a whore in just one night. THAT'S what got me.

    And what I meant by, "I finally feel like a stripper" is what some others have said... I started out doing this with the attitude of, "If it ever stops being fun, I'm not going to do it anymore." And yet the other night, it was really really really miserable, but I found myself (after calming down a bit) going, "Oh, well... That's part of the job," and getting ready to go back and try it again this weekend. And I think it just kind of dawned on me that I have no intentions of quitting this job, no matter how frustrated and angry I might get sometimes.

    And thanks to everyone for just letting me vent!

    I'm sorry, I totally misunderstood your post the first time I read it. I thought you were saying that you felt like a whore because you're a stripper (sorry! ). I understand now that the reason why you felt like that was because there were several guys that night that were propositioning you. I just want to say one thing: a lot of guys in strip clubs do that. It wasn't anything you said, did, or the way that you look. Some of these guys are jerks looking for extras and they'll ask anybody that talks to them that, not just you. They probably propositioned all the girls that talked to them after you. So, don't worry, it has nothing to do with you :hugs:

    I find it kind of weird you qualify that guy as a "drunk Mexican" and then say "I know that if I was dumb enough to get near him outside the club, he'd gang-rape me with all his little drunk-ass homies." If the guy was another race would you call him a drunk Asian, a drunk African-American, a drunk Caucasian?

    If he was another race, I would still probably call him a "drunk-ass honky" or the like...

    I think it may be regional, or it may be the result of a certain club in our town that caters very heavily to our Hispanic population (that's a REALLY skanky club, and even my customers have told me that the only reason they go there is to get lots of extras... Perhaps since so many of the Hispanics in this area go there, they just expect that ALL strippers are like that? IDK...). And I do have some really great regulars and so forth of ALL races, so it's not as much about the race. But in my club (region?), the Mexicans are the WORST about just being generally disrespectful towards dancers (and I know this is a generalization, but this is what I've observed in my club). They're the ones that will slap your ass while you're dancing on-stage, bite your ass or leg, grab your arms when you're trying to walk by, etc. And if you DO dance for them, they'll grab EVERYTHING, including my personal pet peeve: grabbing my hips and not letting me get up or go anywhere.

    So it's not a general slam against Hispanics, but a slam against the type of Hispanics I tend to see in my club. And in all fairness, "drunk-ass cowboys" are almost as bad (we see a lot of those in my club as well). Most of the dancers in my club won't ever approach cowboys or Mexicans for dances, because they're so widely known for behaving like assholes.

    But I reiterate: It's not anything I have against Mexicans in general, but something I have against the type of Hispanic assholes that tend to frequent my club.

    I have to say that was a very good answer to the question Morgan. Kept is very logical and didnt get all defensive which has been rare on here lately. Bravo.

    It's still racist as fuck. I'm don't care if I'm "pointed" or banned from this site. I'm seriously fucking sick of seeing racist shit on this site. Qualifying your customer as a "drunk Mexican" is fucked up. And I really doubt you would say a drunk honky.

    I'm seriously fucking sick of politcally correct racist "discussions"/fights about ppl saying stuff wrong. Le fucking SIGH! let that shit go. If she's racist it ain't going to help her. I think she didn't mean it like that. And I know yr gonna say OH WELL! IT'S NOT RIGHT!! SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID IT!!! whatever. Fight amongst yrselves, but as sick as you are of "racist shit on this site" yr just starting some kind of fight that no one's gonna win and everyone is sick of reading. Ugh.

    i guess im "racist" too then because i hate the grabby mexicans at my work. and yes the majority of them are grabby and cheap. though alaska is correct, "mexican" is not racist. drunk mexican is the same as saying drunk guys, drunk black guys, whatever.
