Is a PL a "Pathetic Looser"?
Is a PL a "Pathetic Looser"?





Yes. Or pussy licker according to one thread in here LOL j/k![]()
There are many stereotypes about the industry that I work in. Sometimes they can be true but human beings are very diverse creatures and cannot be pigeon-holed into one category.
Some of the most effortlessly beautiful, kind, intelligent, successful, motivated, driven and ridiculously hilarious women that I have ever met have been dancers. I've met the best friends that I've ever had in this industry.





Yup. The neediest, grossest type of customer.





A customer unable to distinguish fantasy from reality. In consequence they shower money on a dancer in the hopes of making them their girl friend, then get horribly upset when reality (very belatedly) rears its ugly head.
Which reminds me: we haven't had a train-wreck thread on the subject for about two months now. Must be one due soon.......

Thank you Phill. This really is the true definition of a PL as first coined on internet SC sites years ago. Some have tried to stretch the definition to encompass anything from guys who smell bad or don't spend money to just about any guy who walks into a strip club. Some guys never get to the "reality" part of it as many dancers move on while the PL is still in mid-crush, thus causing the PL to search for a new victim while pining for what might have been with the lady who probably changed clubs to get away from the guy...and the beat goes on...








I'd also say that a guy who thinks he has "stripper friends" is a PL. The guy is confusing a dancer/customer "relationship," an errand boy, someone who's being used, someone who's being tolerated, someone making small talk, with being a friend. I'm sure there are exceptions to the rule, but a guy who says he has several "stripper friends" is delusional.

You're stretching the definition again.
1) I have friends who are dancers. We socialise outside of work - where we split all bills 50/50. If I pick them up from work, I form no part of their income. The only thing they ask for from time to time at work is a drink - which I'll willingly get.
2) I know dancers who have customers they regard as firm ITC friends. Sure, they earn an income from them, but that income tends to be significantly less than you would expect from the time the dancer spends with them.
In effect the dancer enjoys the conversation/companionship with that individual and is willing to accept a smaller income in consequence. Both sides are fully aware that it is an ITC relationship that will not move OTC - and both sides are quite happy with that situation.
--------------------------
A PL (in my view) is someone who consistently spends on dancers in the delusion that they will get an OTC relationship/friendship with the dancer as a consequence of that expenditure. In neither of the above counter examples is that the case.
And yes, I'm fully aware of guys who get used by dancers. One guy constantly runs a dancer about in return for a couple of free lap dances per trip, but I'm not sure I'd class him as a PL. The dancer and he are using a primitive barter system. The dancer gets free travel, and he gets free lap dances. Suits both sides, although I'd say the dancer is doing better out of it than the driver.
Phil.



read all of "victor2" posts in 2009 and you will get the deal



broke ass or too cheap to spend (beyond incidental amounts) type customers by definition usually cannot count as PLs, or if a customer is fucking the stripper in or outside the club - no matter how much he might spend.
consider that dancers themselves can be PLs if they are repeatedly wasting time hanging on shifts with non-spending customers instead of making money
