    Default Going back to stripping after being denied for other adult work.

    So I've been working as an adult entertainer since is was 18. I'm now 22, and I've had enough experiences to know what I do and don't want to do for work. I'm black, light/medium brown skin, not thin but curvy, I'm 5'10 and weigh 155lbs. My abs are not flat and never have been, though I had less fat before having my two kids.

    I've been a dancer, escort, massage girl, cam model, sugar baby and I even tried getting into porn. Supposedly I'm to fat for porn and because I'm black I won't be able to find much work unless I do some degrading shoots (for example, "ghetto gaggers"). I was doing good escorting, but after running into trouble with LE, I'm afraid to go back to it. I have no patience for cam modeling. Massage clients always want more than what is supposed to be offered so it then becomes escorting again. And I can not find a serious sugar daddy. The only thing that I can get hired for these days is stripping and I don't like it. I have no hustle, all customers want to do is try to get freebies and ask me out and the hours and travel are terrible.

    I'm from CT, I live an hour or more away from any good clubs and I'm having a hard time finding a job that's right for me. I enjoyed escorting because I could choose my hours and what I did and didn't do, it just sucks that it's illegal. But I'm afraid that if I go back to it, I'll get in trouble again.

    I'm starting at Mystique in Bridgeport tonight. I'm not looking forward to it. The house fee is $70, which I'm not used too and I don't know what to expect from this club. I used to work at Ruby's, which had a low $15 dj fee, but the club was very slow and had regulars that already had girls they would see there.

    Any advice would be very helpful. Whether it's how to safely get back into escorting or which clubs to try. My goal is $1500 a week, working the least amount of time possible.

    Well, there's a lot of info on here about the adult industry, both about escorting and stripping (including club reviews). Browse through, run a search, and if you have any specific questions you can't find answers for, ask away. Just go in to the club with an open mind though -- often a high house fee is indicative of high earning potential, or else dancers wouldn't keep paying it, so try not to let it get you down. Good luck!

    Have you looked into PSO? There's also a lot of info on that in the Other Work section.

    I can see why you'd have a fear against escorting especially if you got in trouble in the past. Maybe your screening wasn't tight enough or the area you are in just sucks for escorts.

    Yeah don't do anything in adult work that would be degrading to you. Your mental sanity is way more important.

    Why don't you get back into camming?

    The area I'm in used to be better, but it's declined significantly within the past 18 months. I didn't mind escorting as much because it paid well with less time wasted, it has its downsides but I was able to pay bills better than I can without escorting. Camming was to slow to me. I'm not a very patient person when it comes to waiting for a private session, and there were to many beggars and rude people. I couldn't take the bs for 300 a week. I gave it a month and tried it out 3 times. Not my thing.

    I've thought about PSO, but I heard it doesn't pay well and the companies I see advertising want you to work 50+ hours a week.

    I'm thinking about just doing escorting, and working a different area. I tried nyc and it was terrible. I tried it 3 times and made nothing. Boston isn't good for black girls, providence is terrible and in CT, everyone is getting arrested. Stripping seems like the only thing I can do.

    oh i missed the part where you said you have no patience for camming...hopefully it goes well for you stripping but do keep in mind its not risk free. there are a couple of current posts about strip club raids. but this is probably lower risk than escorting.

    Maybe you should try clips for sale. Main thread here: https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/sh...ps4Sale-Thread

    You could shoot at you convenience and only do stuff you are ok with. There are other sites like ExtraLunchMoney, but I think c4s is where girls mostly make their $$ (me personally I found elm worthwhile, at first.

    Last night was my first night at Mystique and it was very slow. Luckily they did not charge me the house fee or I would have gone home with $10. There was this gross drunk guy hanging out and harassing me all night, literally from the beginning to the end of my shift, trying to grope me, asking if he can get a bj in the back and asking about sacking on my boobs. I almost threw up. This is one of the reasons why I resent stripping.

    I definitely will not be offering extras in the clubs. I spoke to the club owner last night and he said the cops are cool with them so they come in all the time to hang out. I'm going in tonight and I'm hoping it's a lot better because I'm already behind on bills this month.

    Tried it last year when I was pregnant. I lack the appropriate equipment to make quality videos and a lot of the niches that sell are things that I'm either not into or I'm not capable of doing.

    Sweetie use social media to your advantage to get clientele to come and see you. I learned long time ago that as a dancer of color. Unless
    you look passable or real exotic the adult industry, is very cold to us unless you are willing to degrade yourself. I tried for years to get in upscale clubs. To either hear or see the dancer of color quota. So I have learned to embrace my urban clubs.
    Nothing has changed and it is almost 2015 and we as women of color who are not passable are still not welcomed.

    Melting pot my Ass. Take your time honey and work out a plan really look at this as a business.
    I believe in networking and strong sister hood please give me a follow on twitter. I do follow back.

    Thank you for the advice, I really appreciate it. I'm not really aggressive when in comes to dancing, so I don't do well at the more popular clubs. And I definitely know what you mean about being pushed away because of my skin color. It's like it doesn't matter how pretty or how nice you are. And I refuse to do anything degrading because I know that will come back to haunt me. I may just go back to Ruby's since I know I'm comfortable there. I've also decided to go back to escorting, since I know I do well in that area. Anyone have any screening advice? I can't get in trouble again.
