I came to this site because I research everything. I was desperately trying to find a place to talk to about being a new dancer and such. Unfortunately I found this only after I began dancing; better late than never though right?
My expectations were low because I didn't know what to expect out of this industry in general. Before I started dancing, I had never even been to a SC.
I have stayed because I have made good friends on here(and hope to meet them someday). It's a good social medium for when you're going through rough times in your life and need support. Or when you just need friendliness. That's one of the reasons the drama will not make me leave. I know how great this place can be.
It's also a good place to live vicariously through the current dancers once you have retired![]()
I came here because I wanted to learn as much about stripping as possible before I dove head first into it. I pretty much wanted to make as much money as possible as a stripper and stripperweb gave me the know-how and confidence to do so.
I was thinking about becoming a stripper and I wanted reassurance that it wasn't about handjobs and blowjobs and fucking the managers to get hired. I found that reassurance and so much more, thank goodness!
Because I'd never done ANYTHING like this before and there seemed to be a lot of info. Hell, there still is!





I was on a BA board and mentioned something about how long they thought I had to wait until i could do something like stripping. Someone gave me a link to here and I got captured.
I had searched and searched for a stripper website and SOO happy that someone sent me the link.
I stay because I love it here. I don't have to explain every little thing to a non stripper person about the job, can get help, learn about the rest of the world, get support and generally just have fun. If this site ever goes down (and we don't start up another one) I will be very very sad. Id have been so clueless without SW!!
Honestly, I came for the advice on improving my appearance, and stayed for the girl talk.
I initially came to the site as an escape from a less friendly stripper web site. I've stayed because the information as well as camaraderie with others who have similar life experiences.
I'm very happy here. There are very few places IRL where I can share stripping related experiences, triumphs and failures. Non industry people are usually very uncomfortable with the topic of stripping, so pretty much this is the only place that I can feel free to share and vent work experiences.
Promote yourself and earn more money! This is a business that is owned by strippers for strippers. Let's make that money!
^^Yep, I found that other stripper forum first and joined, but it just wasn't the same, or very friendly most times.





what was it? is it still around?




I've been posting on forums an ungodly amount since I was about 14. Then a while ago someone posted a thread on a forum with depression/EDs/etc because she was thinking about stripping and someone who had stripped in London to get through med school recommended this site. Stayed in my head for a year or so and then when I started seriously thinking about it I checked it out myself.
Very helpful. Was a member for 2-3 months reading up on newbie board and hustle hut before I first headed to a club.




I came here upon recommendation of a fellow club employee. I was looking for an female oriented online community that would not judge me for having being a dancer. Most other message boards geared towards women aren't very accepting to people in the adult industry. Stripperweb is unique in that department.

No... it's not still around.
I found this site on google. I came b/c I wanted to dance, I wanted to make a lot of money... basicly I wanted to know the secret.
I stayed b/c.... Once I found out some, I learned how much more there is to know. And it was hard for my irl friends to get my stripper side, which became, and has stayed, a big part of me. Then, when I was pretty much on the way out.... I went through some horribly painful things IRL, and found an amazing support system on here, when my real life pals didn't always understand.
now I think of a lot of the women on here as my sisters almost... I adore them, count on them, argue with them, get mad at them, forgive them, moun and celebrate and enjoy life with them.





I came here to become a more informed customer.
I stayed because it's fun, and I feel I can contribute; which is fun too.
I see. I might as well answer my own questions no?
I came here because I had always had a fascination with strippers. I felt that strippers had the hardest job because they are actors, dancers, therapist, caregivers and much more to people who either want company or are just in search to escape from reality for a while.
I became more and more interested in stripping because a conversation with my mother had me thinking in this world what makes money? sex, sex sells and as a parent with not much income I felt that I would might as well research stripping and owning a club to provide for my family.
A good friend of mine was a dancer and told me about this site and I fell in love. Yes at first I was not well received because people thought I was a troll and was just messing with the members but after a while I showed who I am.
I have met people from this board and have made good friends, have had great advice not only in the industry but in my every day life. I have gotten support for so many things and I am completely grateful.
I am a customer and I love being a customer but one day I shall own a club and try to make it as stripper happy as possible because I have learned so much about how many things make the dancers unhappy and how shitty owners are that I will look out for the girls, and guys, I plan on doing 2.
Anyway I came here for information, to meet new people and have learned a great deal and made friends, above and beyond from what I was expecting.





Because I was about to start stripping and was digging for info on it.
I expected nothing.
I stayed because I couldn't find anywhere else like it. I could get advice, vent, talk about tabo things, etc. I stay here because it's still the only site like it. I wasn't invited but I've made friends here. It's less useful to me now (a lot of it has to do with the same advice given over and over) but I'm still generally happy on this site. I'm not exactly a high-profile poster, but it keeps me out of the drama.![]()
If you think school is hard, try being stupid.
I have a name for this process...I call it "Running The Gauntlet". It seems every active new member must make it past that test, then all's good.
I'm guessing it is because strippers are so used to people trying to run a game on them that their guard is so high that everyone looks like a player. If a new member doesn't have the cahones to get through the gauntlet, then they likely won't be happy here anyway.
Players are weeded out pretty quickly. New members that understand this suspicion of strangers can get through that vetting process pretty painlessly. Others take a long time to figure it out. Or never do.

I joined becuse i wanted to learn about stripping. I realy did not have any exceptions for it, I stayed becuse i love it i feel comfotable here among like minded ppl. I was here before i was a dancer,when a was a dancer, and now when i am on a break from danceing and this site is relvent to me threw all of it. I belive in once a dancer always a dancer buecuse i am proud of my time as a dancer it was postive for me and i am not done with it yet. We are differnt then average women we need eachother.





I followed a different site here. I'd forgotten the name for some time now, but recent events have brought back the name stripperpower, which sounds only vaguely familiar. Anyway, I first went there because I had questions. I've found answers to some of them and gave up on the rest.
I was planning on stripping and this was the best resource I could get my grubby little hands on




I was here as a lurker a year before I even signed up, so I've been around for some time. Initially I came for support as a dancer, some advice, and some comeraderie (sp?)
Before this site, I used to go to stripperpower.com. Gosh that was so long ago. Wonder what ever happened to Elle...
Anyway back on topic, SW met my needs over the years and I have been so thankful to be part of such a great community, despite the drama lately.


Well, mainly because of AndyGirl; and after I checked it out a few times and got serious about working again, I began stopping by more often to get current on dancer issues, get advice, give advice and get a good laugh in the process (Heard in the Dressing Room) OMG!
