    Default I dance too much like a stripper!

    This is so silly, but I'm sure you girls have had this problem too-

    Ever since I've started stripping (a little over 3 years ago), I have not been able to drop my stripper moves when I go out with my friends, or when I'm dancing (not at work). It seems like everything I do wants to ooze sex and sensuality. It sounds silly, but it's been starting to bug me a little bit lately, just because I want to let go a little bit more and not feel like I'm trying to entice guys with everything I do.

    This isn't just related to dance, but to the way I sway my hips when I walk, or the way I carry myself, or the way I pose for pictures, etc etc.

    Has anyone else had this problem, where your "stripper" self has become a part of your daily life?
    Remedies? Solutions?

    Relating, relating.

    The more I think about it, the more I don't want a remedy or solution, though. Dancing taught me how to embrace my physical sensuality, and it's like once you realize that you have that side of yourself, it wants to be free and open and out there for everyone.

    It gets me into trouble all the time and has probably confused the shit out of countless men I've encountered in my everyday life, which is a pain in the ass to deal with.

    When it comes down to it, though, I don't want to re-teach myself how to walk around like there's a stick up my ass and hold back on the dance floor and basically retreat into a place I was four or five years ago before dancing happened.

    For better or worse.

    OMG! Yes, totally agree with you on this one. I always want to have my arms in the air and rub my hands on my body. Oh and do the booty roll! It's all like second nature.

    I find that for me, it is less the physical self and more the mental self I become "stripper". Like, I accidentally flirt with EVERYONE and men tend to look too far into that. Or I fib about having a boyfriend. It is like I'm mentally trained to be falsely available all the time. Even my mailman has the hots for me and I think I egg him on. WTF!

    When I'm at the ATM or in line for something, I find myself shaking my ass sometimes, lol. When I'm dancing at a club, yes, it totally looks stripperish.

    I completely agree that being a stripper has many positive side effects- like helping me get more in touch with my body and embracing a more sensual side of myself, but I was just thinking recently how I'd love to be able to turn it off at times. Don't get me wrong, sometimes these acquired skills are GREAT things, but I'm wary of looking like an attention-whore with my "provocative" moves, and I just was wondering if there's any way to tone it down.

    It's just a job that begins to define you, I suppose. I really can't separate myself from the "stripper" in me anymore, which can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you look at it.

    My friends alerted me to the fact that I do this as well when we're out at a club. I was embarassed, but when I tried dancing like them, my ass just wouldn't allow it. Maybe that's because I thought it was a fantastic idea to wear stripper heels out to a normal club. I'm such a weirdo.

    glad I'm not the only one that has this problem.

    It drives my husband crazy sometimes, I've seen him give other men the evil look if they stare too long at me when we go out to shoot pool.
    Althought, I have gotten more submissive in public just by staying constantly aware of other women's behavior in places and acting accordingly. But let us have a group of girls from work with us and that doesn't work.

    I have this problem too... but then I ALWAYS have - even at dance parties, I'd be dancing all sexy and touchy feely (although that may be the rolling as well as how i dance)...

    I love it though, wouldn't change it for the world..

    I just finished a stripper/class/course.

    When I go out dancing I love practicing my stripdance. Sometimes a little to much ... You girls would hate me if I showed up in your SC I even give free lapdances. The guys seems to like it. Many a guy asks me if I'm a pro dancer. I like ...

    Solutions ??

    First ... I'm really trying to tone it down. I really do !! I'm trying.
    Second ... Making it a big deal that this is only fun. Get it ... Just fun ...

    ^ I love your post ...

    hahahah!!! I have totally bought jeans that were way too long (I'm only 5'2" ) so I went out wearing stripper shoes underneath them !! I actually really liked it... I was 5'9"

    I know a girl who wore stripper shoes under her wedding dress bc her husband was 6'5" and she was my height!! Nobody knew she had them on...

    I think it's a great thing! I've gone to a lot of parties (outdoor, psytrance, etc) with other dancer friends and being able to carry a certain kind of sensuality and 'flow' onto the dance floor and share it with other people is, well, a unique gift.

    And going out to the clubs, etc... it's fun to own the dance floor with bitchin' moves.

    That will definitely happen. I haven't worked at a club in years and it hasn't changed. I still think it's hilarious.

    Like, I accidentally flirt with EVERYONE and men tend to look too far into that.
    I do it too! I was actually at a fast food spot with my boyfriend the other week and I was at the counter ordering. When the girl asked me my name.. it slipped out!! I said my stripper name!! My boyfriend fucked with me all night because of it!

    I love it and will not go out clubbing with any girls that dont do it as well,,,or have any problems with it. I love having my show stopper partners in crime.

    I think a good example of toning it down without looking like a boring stick ass is in certain music videos. I do not have any specific examples, but usually there are a few real hot main girls dancing...then you see girls in the background just slightly moving a little sexy. Mimicking some moves like that may do the trick.

    That's funny cause I dont dance when I go out to regular clubs. I sit on a stool, sip my drink and look cute. that's my idea of fun.

    I know the feeling completely. When I go out to a club, I've found that I'm incapable of not playing with my hair and if I'm wearing a skirt, I'm forever playing with that too.

    When I catch myself dancing in "stripper mode" I just force my brain to switch into "ballet mode." It still looks like club dancing, but I force myself to focus on perfect turn-out, pointed feet, hand and arm position, etc. There's so many bits and pieces to watch for that my brain gets overloaded and I instantly stop looking strippery.

    Mind you, this technique only works if you have enough ballet training to be able to overload your brain...I'm sure you couild also do it with jazz or modern or whatever too. Besides, my club dancing skills are deeply lacking. That part of my repetoire is completely atrophed from waaaaaay too much time spent on the emo scene where dancing is virtually unheard of.
