    Default what is a steroytypical stripper?

    before i was a dancer, my idea of a steryotypical stripper was ( and a lot of other people automatically think up this image when you say the word "stripper")

    blond, platnium blond
    gorgeous
    perfect body/face
    fake tits
    fake tan
    fake nails...infact anything fake
    bitchy
    dumb, not too inelligent/ditsy
    slutty. you knw have sex in dances, have sex after work with all the customers etc.
    not have any morals at all etc

    you all must knnow this image.
    funny hing is. i have never met a single dancer that is all of these points in one.
    sure there is heaps of gorgeous blond dancers with loads of surgery,but am yet to meet any that are all the bad points.

    but why was i brought up to think a stripper were these things anyways? suely the media didnt portray the steryotypical stripper image to me?? ha nice and sacrastic....

    does anyone else have/still have this inital steryopype when the word stripper is mentioned? what is the image of a stripper you get/used to get???

    im sure there are SOME strippers out there that ARE steryotypical, but the majority are the complete opposite !!!

    just a thought....

    I thought the steryotypical stripper would be gorgous yet still a coked out hore. Though most of the girls I work with are georgous, most of them do have their heads on straight. A stereotype I still have is that you can't trust any of them with the seriouse stuff. As this may be a negative outlook on things it is better to be safe then sorry.

    Story of the stereotypical stripper....

    She grew up in the trailor parks, where mom was a floozy and various step-dads molested her. As a teen she dropped out of high school, 'cause never was too good at the book-learnin' anyhow. At 17 she meets some slick older man. He's 30 and an alcoholic. He pressures her into stripping. From there she starts making money, but she gives it all back to the loser boyfriend and oh yeah--their expensive coke habit. The boyfriend beats her when she doesn't bring home enough cash and drugs, so she has too start hooking after hours to keep him happy....



    At least that's what alot of people (mostly those who have never actually known a stripper before) seem to think.

    See, I think the stereotype is that strippers DON'T have sex with customers. That's why it's so cool among frat boys when one bagged a stripper.

    But the other stuff is right on the money. Don't forget we shop all day for desginer clothes and have sugar daddies.

    I will say that there is one stereotype of dancers that seems to be true a lot of times. We don't have a very strong relationship with both our parents.

    Honestly, I don't have much to say on the topic of the media's stereotypical stripper, as I didn't watch much TV, etc., growing up. Probably tall, tan, blonde, fake-breasted. But, the image *I* get when I hear the word "stripper" is that of an aquaintance I knew in my mid-teens who actually WAS a stripper, and we called her "Stripper Chick" since none of us could ever remember her name (like I sad, just an aquaintance). She's the first thing that comes to mind when I hear the word "stripper", and she's not stereotypical at all! Very fair complexion, freckled, dark hair, very "goth" looking, nearly flat-chested, very thin and VERY flexible! Incredible dancer, too, that one.

    Most people assume that we are "easy". Ha! The vast majority of my co-workers are:

    1) married
    2) in a serious monogamous live-in relationship, perhaps with children
    or
    3) haven't had a date in months and either can't recall when they last had sex or fondly recall the exact date (in the far-distant past).

    I always thought the stereotypical stripper would be beautiful, fake breasts, lots of make up, drug addict, smoker, drinks a lot, no children, sleeps around. (this is when I was young!)
    But when I started dancing I was surprised that the other dancers were actually "real" people and nice, and werent what I expected in some ways.
    At the club Im in when I first started I was the only one with a child now there is only one girl who doesnt have one, and most of the girls are married or in serious relationships. It just goes to show that there isnt just one stereotype and that it is not always correct, and every one is different

    My idea of a stero-typical dancer USED to be
    Made tons of money
    did drugs
    hardly had to work to make money
    Was bitchy
    had fake boobs
    fake nails
    drunks or party animals
    fake personalities
    had sex with customers for money
    were something to be threatened by
    no kids or close relation with family

    Of course I have met some dancers who fit that description. In fact, I think some girls mistake what happens at the club with reality. But then again I have met some of the smartest, most well rounded women who do it to better themselves, or to have more time to raise their children. When I first started, I made it a point to not get close with anyone at work, but amazingly, I have gained respect for some of the coolest people I have ever met.

    My stereotypical stripper was:
    a huge big ol titted girl
    money flowing out of every orifice
    men crawling all over her
    I though stripping was a part time thing and turns out some people can retire with it
    desighner everything
    drives a hot brand new car
    you live like an ivy vine
    you can only survive by clinging onto trees
    that's your flaw

    I hear a lot of comments about strippers from some of the attorneys I deal with at work. One woman came in one day and was telling us that a certain girl that had been in another attoney's office was a stripper. She said she had to be becuase she had yucky feet and cheap shoes. Another guys says that "all those girls look like crap when you see them in the light in the courtroom." (Of course if he's seeing them in court they probably are the ones that live a more rough life.) I also had another guy tell me about some girl who "used to be a stripper...yeah, a real class act..." I had a cop one day tell me that some girl who was abused sexually by her father will "probably end up dancing in a strip club one day." Those are the few specific comments I can think of that come to mind. Of course there's always the stereotype that they are slutty or all tweakers.

    Fall's in to the following categoreys:

    1. Trailer Park, Tweaker, Divorced, Sexual Abuse Victim, with one kid.

    2. Ran to Paradise, now stripping due to Paradise costing lots of Money to live in (Hawaii).

    3. I'm going to be an actress-- originally best looking girl in small town told to go Westward (LA, also found in Miami).

    4. BF is Criminal and Moves because he wants to get rich quick; thinks hes's smarter than anyone else (Las Vegas).

    5. Art School, Culinary, Fashion, School student needing to pay tuition/rent to live her dream--found in SF and other metro areas.

    6. University Student/ Law School student needing to pay tuition or earn Beer money-- Found in SF, NY, Austin, and other Major Metro Areas.

    7. Female Hustler-- Found all over, total shark, usually was inmate in state correctional facilty at one time or more in her life.

    8. Holly Wood Type-- Found in only in B movies and rescuer fantasies.

    9. Mental Patient-- Found in all clubs, seems normal at first but then Wham!!! Scares bouncer coworkers and managers but has devoted customers who have no clue....

    10. Russian or East Euro Girl-- Stripping because the option for not stripping is far worse and very fatal.

    I think this describes just about any club.

    I used to have admirable images of strippers:

    Pretty, lithe, long, lovely hair, feminine, funny or perhaps mysterious, untouchable to some extent and erotic. She found it easy to never be short of male companions (friends, not necessarily lovers!!) and had a successful partner (a footballer or nightclub owner for example).

    I only started thinking of the negatives when I became a dancer as they were more apparent. It's just the nature of the industry nowadays, the media and some of the clubs breed bad images which taint the mainstream.

    Stupid women who do a lot of drugs and sleep around a lot. I was wrong about most of them. I've met some extremely intelligent women with very sharp wits. Most of the girls I know don't do any hard drugs that I'm aware of. Most of us also get offended when we are treated like sluts and talked to like sex addicts. We are just normal people doing our jobs, which happens to be a little unusual.

    Before i'd been to a strip club the negative stereotype of a stripper would look like Amy Sedaris' Cinnamon in Wigfield http://www.wigfield.com/images/cinnamon.jpg Hahaha.

    And the more positive, but usually unrealistic stereotype, would be that of a girl who was young and looked like a model with implants and a tan. But i soon found out that not all of them are thin or young or even really, really beautiful but that there are all different sorts of pretty's.
