    In my experience I would have to say white men and Asians, not necessarily in that order. In the LA area, a lot of Hispanics come in, pay their $20 admission fee and do not tip on stage or buy dances - basically just wanting a free show. However this seems to be the younger crowd. Today we actually had a customer who told 2 girls he did not have any money except for the required $6 drink!!
    It's better to be looked over, than overlooked.

    Why limit the choices to the big 4, lets throw in the Arabs, Pacific Islanders and Caublanasians in the mix.

    I'd agree, white men followed by Asian men, with notable occasional exceptions to the rule. Hispanic men also seem to be notoriously cheap.

    In my experience it's wm and am. Once in a while a black gentleman will spend a decent amount of money on me as well. I never do well with thug types (any race) so I don't even approach them. I don't like 'em anyhow.

    Never explain yourself to anyone, because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person that dislikes you won't believe it.

    Sure its profiling but thats the basis of any demographics analysis. I guess its only Racist if it has to do with the Government. This type of study is done on a regular basis for the major chain clubs and the results will vary from city to city but there are some constants.

    The #1 factor in the demographic is TOURISIM. People in general spend more in a strip club (and most other business's) when out of town. 2nd is discretionary income and 3rd is gender/age ratio.

    On a more local level the biggest individual spenders are by far white collar Asians. The Asian cluture accepts paying women for personal service (see geisha). Of course there are not many white collar Asians when compared to other races.

    Second is the white collar Caucasian. Middle aged (35-55) and middle classed. This is the group that includes most "regulars". I call this the Sugar Daddy class. This bunch wins hands down for overall spending in a stirp club and is the target market of choice for most club executives.

    Arabs rate 3rd on the list individually but overall make up very little of the potential customer base. Again they have a culture that accepts paying for pleasure but also one that devalues women.

    Fourth on the list overall is the younger (20-35) blue collar Caucasian. This group makes up the vast majority of customers however. These guys support the BAR and the DOOR and are great targets from the clubs perspective.

    Black and Hispanics are at the bottom of the list both individually and overall. Again its a cultural issue.
    Blacks in general have the perspective ..."Why should I pay for something I can get for free" (Very realistic outlook im MY Opinion)
    Hispanic culture is more sexually oriented...."Why should I pay for something I'm NOT going to get" This explains why almost ALL strip clubs in Mexico are Brothels.

    Each City (and each Club) is different but these averages apply on the large scale. For Dancers .....Work the Asians and the OLDER white guys.

    Get used to the broke spectators because (as the economy gets worse) theres gonna be alot more of them while the Older Sugar Daddies stay home with the wife and TV (Both FREE).

    For me, no matter what race, it is people who do not live in the city where my club is. U know people from the suburbs across the bridge or the nearby state lines, and business men from other cities. Last time I worked it was guys from DC white and black, guys from Seychelles the french island, guys from MS white, black, asian, Detroit latino and arabic, and NY black music guys and a white guy who is a higher up in some transportation company in new york. Outta towners always spend more or are easier to get dances from than the locals.

    Well I didn't vote because I do well with latinos, blacks, whites, arabs and Indians (as in from India)...don't get many orientals. I have always done well with guys in these 'categories', although in most places I've worked the majority of customers in general are white. The guy who made my all time best night was a black businessman. The guys who request dances most frequently from me are latin or white (black guys less frequently, only because there are usually fewer of them in the club). I guess I have a broad appeal, and since I don't look for a second at the guy's skin color when scoping customers, my customer base is very evenly spread. I also have the good fortune to be working in a place where everyone is very ethnically mixed and open-minded, and where we get lots of tourists and business travellers, so there's a very diverse market here.

    The only ethnic group I have never done well with is oriental, probably because most of them I have seen really don't spend much money in the club and so I tend to be a bit more skeptical about approaching them.

    generally...

    more education = more income = more disposable income for hobbies

    since anglos and asians, on average, tend to be more educated, it's a safe bet that they probably spend more.

    Since I work at the Lusty Lady in San Francisco, I get to meet a really wide spectrum of visitors. I track my earnings and usually make a note of who the big spenders are. Maybe it is because we are known worldwide, but all ethnic groups fall into the big spender category for me. When I started, I used to think white collar were the biggest spenders, but then I started to get blue collar types that would spend the same amount. I define big spenders as anybody that spends over $100 for a 15 minute show.

    So each day when I go to work at the Lusty, I treat all of my visitors as if they are big spenders. For me, race and social-economic status have no bearing on how much a person spends.

    Don't take it personally. Everyone at some point has been profiled be it positive or negative. That's why I don't go out in public looking like some scrub.

    My whole point in mentioning "once in a while a black gentleman will spend a decent amount of money on me..." was that we don't get many black gentlemen customers.

    I mentioned I stay away from thug types period regardless of race.

    I see your point though. Perhaps classifying the patrons as suits, blue collars or dirty looking perverts would have been more pc? Or maybe even breaking it into age groups. Older men TYPICALLY (not always) spend more money simply because they have more money to spend!

    Although guest hit the nail on the head by saying...oh what was it?..."more education=more income=more money to spend on frivolous things like strippers"

    I had to vote on this, because i have a clientel mainly of older, well....30's and up, throw a few 20's who are regulars in there!

    But a high 85% white. I have a few great tippers who are coloured men! I love them, but yea, a high count for me is the white male

    Well this poll depends on where you live. I know if I lived in a predominanly African American city like Atlanta most of my customers will be professional black males especially if it's a upscale club. But work in Central NJ in a predominantly white and Indian area. So most of my money comes from older white males followed strangely by frat boys from near by colleges and then Indi

    Me myself would have to say that you forgot one ( All Of The Above) because I dont have just one certain race that tips better than others. I have recieved big tip's from all of the races questioned above. Our club patron's are prodominently white but if you went with a " 1 out of say 100 " per race then the white patron's would fall far short of the other's.

    some people get so technical. Its basically a direct question to the one person reading the thread. For me, I usually do well with white males, and the asians as well. (By the way calling someone oriental is wrong)

    Thugs dont have a liking for me (any race)

    I usually dont ge many black customers, but when I do, they are usually great, and tip well. Just that I dont get many.

    Actually I find that women, whether they are lesbian or straight seem to tip better than any of the men do. And the lesbians tip the best of all.

    True, true Lexi. Items like rugs are "Oriental". People descending from Asia are "Asian", "Asian-American" or "Asian-Pacific". Just like most Black Americans I know can't stand the term "African American" as most of us come from origins other than "African" and "American". But that's off topic and we could go on and on forever on that note. I hate confining people to those BS terms anyway...

    But since the topic has been brought up, for me, most of my customers are White Men, followed by Hispanic/Black men. However, as of last night the most ever spent on me was by a BM who had kind of a "big brother" complex. He wasn't trying to fuck me, but wanted to make sure I was taken care of for the night (go figure). I don't particularly care WHO gravitates towards me - the only color I'm interested in is GREEN.

    "Of course there are not many white collar Asians when compared to other races. "

    Sure there are. I know a very large number of professional Asian men who do better than the vast majority of white guys I know. Then again, my boy and I live in a section of town that has quite a large Japanese district, so it may just be the demograph I'm in. Certainly comes in handy with minor in Japanese like mine, 'cause then you can understand the dirty comments.

    $20 or $50 is not too much to tip someone who has been sitting with you, especially if she's spent a signifigant amount of time with you.

    This really depends. When I lived in California I got a lot of asian customers and they were definitely my biggest spending group, both proportionately and individually. Now that I live in a very white, very racist area, much of my money comes from white men. However, I do make good money from traveling non white customers... most of the girls just skip right over them. Oh well, their loss, my gain :-)
