One would think a strip club would have a very masculine vibe. The decor is boys-night-out macho, sports are showing on the tube, the advertising gracing the walls and bar would be at home in a garage.
But as I've became a regular at a club the past year and gotten to know the dancers, I now think of that club as probably the most feminine space I inhabit. Not surprising really. Guys come in, spend at most a couple of hours and hit the road. For the dancers, it's their day-to-day work environment. Ultimately, it has to be somewhere the dancers are comfortable. They set the mood and in a large part establish the rules and routines.
I find myself at ease with that, but it certainly is at odds with my former perception.
That's my observation of this smallish club, anyway. I don't know about large, upscale gentlemen's clubs, which seem impersonal to me.
