Okay, now that I braved amatuer night and absolutely loved it, what do I do about my mother. I live at home because I'm going to school. Shut up, I moved out at 17 and managed to survive the bay area on my own for some time.
My mom is pretty damn cool, all around. She knows I'm crazy as all get out, but smart enough to take care of myself. She's also good at letting me make my own mistakes.
For the past few months when I started seriously toying with the idea of stripping, I kinda tried to feel her out. I'd say stuff like, "Mom, would you still love me if I was a stripper?" Yes Hill. "Hey, if I can't find a job a job I'm gonna start stripping." Okay, whatever.
In all honesty I'm pretty certain she thought I'd never go through with it.
Anyway, I think that if I explained my thoughts behind it, she'd be alright. The last thing I wanna do is hurt my momma. And of course if she's not okay with it I'll totally quit. I just can't lie worth a shit. I hate it, it makes me feel terrible. Especially to my mom.
I dunno, would it be totally innapropriate to write her a letter or something? I'm the world's least confrontational person alive. I don't do this stuff well. I was thinking, if we talked about to kinda go into it really low-key, like, "Hey, you know how I said if I couldn't find a job I was gonna strip? Well..."
The worst part is her girlfriend of 5 years would probably be the one to tell her it was bad, horrible, awful, etc. I dunno, my dad went to clubs all while they were married so they can't bother my mom too much.

Your mom knows you better than we all do, and she will understand if you want to write her a letter (especially if you've used this route in the past to confront her about something). I'm personally the same way -when something big comes out (like when I told the 'rents about my moving in with my bf), I wrote it to them in a letter, and then we confronted it face to face. It was a way for me to put down all my thoughts in an organized way - covering all of my reasons, etc, and a way for me not go off on a tangent - which I am want to do many times!
