So, as you all may know, my boyfriend is not thrilled by the idea of me stripping. He has asked me what I feel I'm going to get out of it. I've told him that I feel the job would be empowering, and I'd gain confidence and sales skills from it. Right now I'm kind of shy when it comes to selling to strangers. I also want to be a burlesque performer. What better way to prepare for that? Oh and then there's the fact that I WILL BE GETTING PAID MONEY, BECAUSE IT'S A JOB.
I had him read an article last night on feministing.com by an ex-stripper and it was basically saying not to think that all strippers fit the stereotype of crazy drug addict slut. Even though it was beside the point of the article, he asked me "What did she get out of it?".
So could any of you ladies humor him and share what it is you feel you "get" out of stripping?
Also, do you agree that women don't choose this job to get some kind of sexual thrill from the men in the club? This has absolutely nothing to do with my decision, but he feels I must be seeking a "rush" from stripping or something.
I appreciate your responses very much!
