    I know that from time to time I will be stereotyped by dancers who, for their own reasons, don't like older white guys. Sucks to be me in those instances but there are plenty of dancers who do like older white customers. Point being, there is a plethora of pulchritude in the dancer universe so it makes sense to accept her choices and just move on. She will make her money where she wants and the customer will have his fun where he wants. It makes sense when you think about it.

    On the women tipping more than men thing, it could be because more women go into tip-based service industries. Also, think about nail and hair salons: tipping is assumed in those places, so I think women in general are more used to tipping.

    I tend to avoid the guys who have a major subculture clash with me- I just don't speak the language. I'm a pretty sheltered suburban girl, so I just have to look confused with somebody asks if they can "spit their game at me." You want to spit on me? Ewwww... (Yes, I have since learned what it means.) I can usually get a dance or two from them, but I'm usually on the hunt for the night-long VIP.

    I try not to genuinely "avoid" types of customers (as several of you have said, you never know!), but there are types I won't spend much time on, or will get paid up front. These include:

    Older Indian/Middle Eastern Men Who are Dressed 30 Years Out of Date:
    The dress thing is important- to me that indicates a lack of cultural assimilation, hence a more "Old World" attitude towards women in general, and strip clubs in specific- that they are really brothels. However, some of my very BEST customers are Indian men who have assimilated. Gentleman, the lot of them.

    Wide eyed youngsters:
    Not because they're grabby, they're usually too scared of offending me, mostly because they can't afford much. BUT! I will make that one dance the best they've ever had, and there's a good chance they'll be back every week with their paycheck. Hey, who am I to turn down a dance or two from a respectful customer? And a chance to train a newbie in the ways of being a good customer for life? (On a side note, one of my "boys" told me he'd been in on a night I wasn't there, and got a dance from one of our, *ahem* less than scrupulous girls, and his thoughts on it were "It was GROSS!" Good boy. Extra sexy dance for you.)

    The Club Regular:
    There's a whole clique of guys who hang out in our VIP lounge, and I've NEVER seen them spend money, since so many girls assume "VIP= sure thing", and so they've learned they don't have to, they'll get girls all night for free. Occasionally I can catch their less jaded friend, but not often. Not worth it, I'll take my picks from the floor.

    That Guy In The Corner:
    The one who never sits down, lest a dancer sit with him and ask him for a dance or a tip. Just watches. In there EVERY NIGHT. Staring. Drooling. I hate him. If he;s the only one watching my stage, I will pretend to pick my nose or scratch my butt. Whatever I can do to make myself less appealing to him, so he quits watching my stage for free. Or I hard hustle him for ten straight minutes so he gets uncomfortable and leaves. I consider it a service to the club in general.

    The Ego Stroke:
    The guy who just came in to put down a hot girl to make himself feel better. Tries SO hard to make you feel stupid. Don't care how much money he has, he won't be spending it on you, but he DOES want you to beg for it. Usually late twenties white guys with a modicum of career success, and they think their shit don't stink. You should be grateful simply to be allowed to sit with him. Okay, not really.

    Hannibal Lecter:
    The guy who, for whatever reason, makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up, and the little voice in the back of your head say, "This is a man who likes his women like he likes his coffee. Ground up and in the freezer." I ALWAYS trust my instincts on this one. I'm polite, but cold, and I bolt as soon as possible. Polite, because angry psychos are bad, and cold, because obsessed psychos are even worse than angry ones. Your lizard brain has had a long, long time to hone these instincts. Listen to them.

    I think that's about it... I try to give everybody at least a "wanna dance" throughout the night. Sometimes, even if you can't find the VIP-all-night guy, those twenties add up pretty darn quick. One dance at a time has saved my night more than a few times.
    Haikus are easy,
    But sometimes they don't make sense:
    Refrigerator.

    Ms. Crow, I know that this strategy must work for you or you wouldn't use it, but I don't get it. Has it been your experience that guys who aren't drinking alcohol are cheap?

    It's clear that you would never approach me because I don't drink alcohol inside clubs or out. Ever. And so you'd miss out.

    As far as I know, I've never been avoided by dancers who employ this strategy...I rarely have problems getting the attention of dancers, at least at the clubs I go to...so I guess I shouldn't worry about it, but it did pique my curiosity.

    I didn't notice this among other dancers' lists of behaviors to avoid...is this a common strategy?

    Mister Bailey There are always exceptions to every rule, obviously. I speak to everyone and the guys that don't get an alcoholic drink or bring their own are just passing through so to speak. IE: They wont be there long. It's not about cheapness in this case. It's about time management which I am terribly anal about.

    This is a perfect example of how white guys can be stereotyped just as easily as any other type of guy in a strip club based on mere profiling. Some strippers choose their customers based on drink choices, others based on race, et cetera. (I'm not picking on you, Crow--I'm just relating this back to the thread's racism discussion)

    i am wary of any customer not drinking alcohol, but not because they wont spend. in ohio, techinically ANY physical contact between dancers and customers is a 1st degree misdemeanor with a huge fine and prostitution on your record. Sometimes undercover cops are sent out to look for this, so I will avoid those not drinking alcohol for fear that they might be cops. If the club is dead then i will talk to them but I will spend time probing to make sure that they arent cops. Usually after i am satisfied that they are a legit customer, i find those who dont drink alcohol to be surprisingly good spenders!

    Fortunately, undercovers seem to be very very rare at my current location .

    If I avoided guys who weren't drinking alcohol, I wouldn't make any money That's because I work at a non-alcoholic club. The guys who are drinking alcohol are usually the college guys or hs seniors who think they're slick for sneaking their can of coors light in.

    and don't get me wrong. some do. but not many, and rarely on me.

    i should clarify though that i'm only talking about middle aged waspy white dudes in polo shirts (especially with golf or club logos, or golf course related shirts in general). younger guys or other ethnicities are usually worth talking to.

    I find the guys who are not drinking alcohol to be very good customers. Usually less grabby, and they never try to pressure me to drink alcohol while I am there (I never drink at work).

    I find the polo shirt guys to be very hit and miss. Most of the time they are time wasters and a group of them might only get a table dance, if they get anything at all. But I always try because once in a while I pry one away and he makes my night and is very respectful. That being said, I always fast hustle the golf guys. I've had too many experiences with them giving me passive-aggressive backhanded compliments, and trying to make themselves feel superior.

    The only customers I outright avoid, as in not even try a fast hustle with, are the club regulars who are there all the time and think they are cool and try to tell me how they are friends with some of the dancers. One of them really is friends with a dancer I hang out with sometimes, but still, I avoid. Even if they do get the odd dance, it is sooo much work, and they practically expect special treatment, like they are "better" than the average customer.

    I always talk to the guys who aren't drinking alcohol, especially if they're alone. I figure if they're not drinking, then they can't give me the "I just came in for a beer" bullshit.

    A bit off topic, but now I'm curious... Those of you whose clubs serve alcohol, do you have a cover, and do drinks cost more than usual? I find it odd that guys go to strip clubs "just for a beer." We get custies paying our $5-10 cover, and 1.50 a game of pool, when there's a place w/ better maintained tables, not too far, $6 to play all night. Face it, they just want a beer, or to play pool, WHILE LOOKING AT NAKED LADIES! Thus, if they can stare, they can share.
