    Default Make less money when you are on your period?

    So this week so far I have been doing crappy. Making half as much as I was last week so far. I wonder if its because I'm on my period or if its something else. Anyone notice that they make less if they're on their period? I read something about this being true, just curious if this is true for other people.

    How do you feel when working on your period? Cause it shows sometimes to other custies and hurts you dollar amout. but it true if you feel crappy any day you work.

    I haven't been dancing but about 5 weeks. I think that the week I worked on my period though is the week that I've made the least. Some people say its from your pheremones and stuff but in my situation it was just bc I didn't feel as comfortable and I was constantly going to the bathroom to make sure that everything was still okay. Being on your period doesn't make you feel very sexy, which is something you got to have with this job.

    I keep track of all my earnings, tip outs, ect. I actually make 100-200 more when Im on my period. So NOW I actually look forward to dancing when Im on my period! Im sure it has something to do with pheremones. Whats probably killing your game is the way you feel. Are you more impatient with the customers, not feeling as sexy due to bloating? Its probably a symptom thats causing this.

    Really never noticed a significant difference.

    I always make less... a lot less. Like $300-$400 less(per shift!). The main reason is my confidence is way low

    1) I'm bloated and my flat stomach is one of my best assets, due to the bloating I feel I need to wear a dress and I usually wear some sort of bikini

    2) My skin breaks out like crazy, so I have to wear loads of makeup

    3) I work at clubs were lap dancing is illegal. Dancing on a little stage in a very bright room, doing lots of open leg work. I'm always paranoid my tampon is going to stick out or leak, so I end up giving crappy dances.

    I usually still have to work because my living expenses are so high, but I tend to try to work it so I only work one day. (Mine is usually 4 days). So if I think it's coming I work every night before it comes. Then I work on the last day. I still end up with less money for the week, but better than nothing. I'm also going to start working more the week before to make up for it.

    I guess it goes either way. As for me I feel as sexy as I am not on my period as i am during my period and my boobs are a bit bigger and softer. Also for some reason my face looks prettier. I know weird. I've been known to sell more VIPs during my period.

    I ALWAYS do poorly on my peroid. I don't FEEL less sexy at all--I always feel about the same amount of sexiness, and I never worry about strings showing because I don't wear tampons, I wear sponges, and if it's not a sponge, I cut the string off the tampon. I DO worry about leaking on occassion, but not a lot. I honestly do very little different, and my face doesn't break out at all, so there would be no reason for men to treat me differently--but they do, and although I still make *good* money, it's usually $100-200 less per night. No idea why.

    How do you hide the fact you're on your period, especially with lap dances/full nudes? Can you jsut not do full ndues that night? I've never worn tampons before either (I get problems with vaginal tightness and tears as it is).

    ^ cut the string off the tampon... and you poonani gets used to tampons. I was the same but years of being a swim instructor, I had no other choice but to wear tampons.

    My friend seriously saw a girls tampon fall out during a private show though.. LOL. She was doing all these weird contortionist moves and it literally popped out and landed on the floor.

    It depends on how I'm feeling mentally. But If I'm feeling ok I do way better.

    I make less. I'm usually in a worse mood and feel bloated and not very sexy, I also just don't feel as clean.

    I work in a nude club too so Im constantly worrying my string is showing or I'm going to leak on to a customers pants when I'm giving a dance...

    I usually make less when I first get my period, due to me feeling like total shit...but then normally after 2 days I'm alright again, and I make more. The trick I use is drinking beer. It actually helps with my cramps so that I'm able to feel somewhat normal (I get really bad cramps during my period). It really helps...for me at least.

    But I also have worked with girls who really make that $$$ and get it in when they're on their period...beats me, but I guess everyone is different.

    I'm not trying to sound like an ass but, there are a million threads about making more/less money when you are ovulating and/or on your period. Please use the search feature. A new one of these threads pops up at LEAST once a month (oh the irony).
