    Default "Do you have kids?"

    I get asked that or even, "How many kids do you have?" every night and I'm getting really tired of it! I don't think it's any of their business! I don't want to say that I don't, because I have this weird superstition about denying that my kids exist, and if I tell the truth (that I have five), they always go on about how great I look or they are like, "Nu uh! You do not!" I really don't know how to answer this question without flat out saying, "None of your business." I can handle the "What's your real name" or "Are you single" questions, but this one really bugs me.

    Suggestions, ladies? I did a search for this kind of question, but was not succesful--so, forgive me if there is already a thread like this on here somewhere.

    Thanks.

    I would make up an unusually large number, but not impossible, "I've got 9, why do you ask?"

    They are going to call you a liar no matter what you say, so you may as well give them a false number from the get-go. Another tactic would be to answer, "This year I have 37, can you believe the size of classes these days?" That should get him off the subject of your family, and he'll start wondering about your straight job instead. Then you should act like you said something you shouldn't and dismiss the whole idea by asking for the sale.


    Promote yourself and earn more money! This is a business that is owned by strippers for strippers. Let's make that money!
