    Default How do you like to receive your stage tips?

    I wanted to pose a question that I've never seen addressed on this forum before. Most dancers know that the customary method of stage tipping varies from city to city and sometimes club to club. Do you ladies have any preference in how customers tip you on stage?

    For example, I have danced primarily in Los Angeles, where customers place their tips on the stage around the tip rail. $1 a song is the customary tip, so if you do a 2 song set each customer at the tip rail is expected to tip a minimum of $2. It also isn't uncommon for more generous customers to place more money on the stage or throw it in the air (sort of like in the music videos).

    Anyway, I recently took a working vacation on the East Coast, where I worked in Myrtle Beach (topless) and briefly at Stiletto's in Nanuet, which is nude. In Myrtle Beach, you were onstage with 4 or 5 other girls, and the customers expected to place their tips in a garter or g-string. At Stiletto's, most customers wanted to place their tip between your breasts.

    This really aggravated me for two reasons. First of all, you had to go up to each customer at the rail where they expected you to do a mini-show for them as long as you would let them before they would even offer a tip. I found this kind of time consuming and it left me with the impression that I was going around begging for dollars.

    Second, although there were some people who were generous and tipped $5 or $20, most people only tipped $1. Now this would be fine if not for the fact that they wanted you to give them a lot of special attention AND get to touch you and try to fondle you while giving you the tip. I'm far from a prude, but I think that's a lot of stage mileage for a measly dollar.

    I wanted to get other perspectives on this issue. Ladies, how to you prefer to receive your stage tips? Customers, how do you prefer to tip on stage? (probably the latter method for obvious reasons).
    Just curious.

    BTW, l've read lots of comments to the effect that LA is a really bad city for dancing. I would just like to state for the record that I haven't found that the be the case.

    I dance in northern NJ and when we are done with the stage we go up to each customer sitting at the bar and hold our boobies together and they tip you that way. I usually take the bill with my fingers. Only the really pervy guys like to stick their hand or fingers in between my breasts. Ive never danced anywhere else but the tri-state area but I have heard of the rail tips. Id like to try all methods but I guess it all depends on where you are and what club youre at.

    Over here generally people will either hand you the money or put it in your garter. Some will try and stick it in your g-string, but that's generally not allowed. I prefur guys who just pay $20 up front, I don't care wether they hand it to me or put it in my g-string. A table dance here is $10 for the top and $10 for the g-string, with $20 being enough to dance for 1 song. I can't stand it when people tip $5 at a time!!!!!

    Just slide the money in my g-string, and don't try to stick it where the sun don't shine. That's just my 2 cents! :-)

    I prefer it when guys just come up & either place the tip on the stage or just place it in my garter without wanting a "tip dance". I don't mind if they place my tip in my thong, but I'm with wicked with the whole "don't place it where the sun doesn't shine"!! At one club I worked at, the only way you could EVER take a tip (on stage or off) is with your breasts! I didn't like this 1) Cos I have small A's so it's kinda hard for me, 2) It was just irritating & annoying. Ooh and about the whole tip dance... I don't mind if I really don't want to be up on stage at the moment. It's a good way to pass the time up there. I must say though, I keep my tip dances rather short. If the customer complains, I just say "Hey, it's just a tease...but, if you'd really like to play...wait for me when I come off stage."

    aussiepunkshocker is right. The min. anyone can tip is $5 however they generally get absolutely nothing for that amount of money. If they tip $10, generally a short (1 song or 2 minutes) show is done.

    Whilst I do prefer the whole $20 upfront I don't mind receiving $10 doing a topless show then asking for another $10 (whilst playing cheekily with my GString and looking at the customer a certain way). When it's slow sometimes I will do a full song not half a song length stage/table side dance.

    Damn glad that Australia did away with $1 and $2 notes and turned them into coins quite some time ago now.

    How to receive the tips: in the garter or on stage. Sometimes in the GString but not that common. Between the isn't that common but is done for novelty. I too don't like trying to take the tips between the as I too have small ones.

    I&#039;ve also taken tips from ladies by having them stick the note in one side of their bra/breast and then seductively taken it out. They get a little thrill as the note slides out and brushes against their nipple. I&#039;ve taken tips where one end was in the guy&#039;s mouth and I took the other end with my mouth <-- I do this very rarely as I see it as a health hazard.

    I dance for everyone if no one tips me. If you take a seat by the tip rail I approach you, ask for a tip, receive the tip and do the require dance. If you sit by the tip rail (or in pervert row) and do not tip after I have asked then I politely inform you that you must tip in order to sit there. If you don&#039;t move then the bouncer or hostess will move you.

    I actually prefer the tip dance thing, but in clubs where it&#039;s not out of control. In one club, there is no actual dancing at all, the girls just go out to the end of the stage, get naked, and do a little floorshow, collect a dollar, roll over and do a little floor show for the next guy, collect a dollar, roll over, etc, until they get off stage. When one girl gets 5-10 guys back the DJ cuts the song and puts another girl out behind her. It&#039;s possible to make over a hundred dollars on stage and common to make at least fifty on the weekends.

    Where I currently work, the law says that tipping is hand to hand or hand to garter only. Additionally the club has rules against taking the tip on the inside of your leg. I like that.

    Where I&#039;m dancing, we receive stage tips on the tiprail, in front of us. I think it is against rules to take it any other way. As for receiving a tip between my breasts...it&#039;d be impossible for me ( I&#039;ve got little ones)!

    I used to prefer to mail my tips to the dancers parcel post. One time I was busy, so I had to send my mom to give them tips.

    She&#039;s a good one, that Mom of mine.

    In my garter. That&#039;s how pretty much all the clubs in NE Ohio work. Yeah, we have the little dance around for a bit, guy comes up to your stage, do a little tease or mini floor show for him and collect your tip then move on to the next guy or get up and dance a bit more. I don&#039;t mind it since I&#039;m used to it. But I could see how this would be annoying if you were accustomed to having a tip rail and not having to do a little private show. Sometimes guys do come in and throw the money on the stage but it&#039;s pretty rare. Also, we are not allowed to receive tips between the breasts or in out g-strings; it has to be the garter or hand.

    Wow! Around here most guys put the bill in their mouth and the dancer takes it with her cleavage. Or the guy bends down (with money in mouth) and she opens the front top of her thong and lets the guy put it in that way.

    I just walk up to the stage and stand there until she comes over.I guess that makes it easier for her to know that i want to tip.I&#039;ll tip a five for thirty seconds of her time.The club i go to is small,has four stages and it&#039;s not that busy so thats how i do it.Never tipped at the bigger clubs,lol...

    Right now, at the club where my sister works, it&#039;s in the garter or the hip of the g-string. Anywhere else is prohibited--plain and simple.

    Although, before, they let the girls take the dollar from the tip rail, and put it either behind a guy&#039;s ear or in his shirt collar. Then they have to pull back their hair (so management can see what they&#039;re doing) and they nuzzle the guy&#039;s neck and take the dollar in their teeth. When I first started going to the club, this was the more common way of tipping (sometimes they&#039;d go farther with it, sticking it in a female customers shirt and licking her chest or folding up the dollar, putting it in the guy&#039;s mouth, and then fake making out with him and then taking it with their teeth). Now they&#039;ve drawn back and really only allow tipping at the garter and thigh.

    If you&#039;re at the topless only club here you can only take it to garter or g-string SIDE only. Most girls do only these. Additionally, you can do the "kiss" thing, where&#039;n the customer holds it in his mouth and she takes it with her&#039;s, or put it behind his ear or in his collar and take it thus. I saw one other girl take it by folding it in half and putting it in a beer bottle, not all the way but so that maybe an inch was in the bottle, then taking all of the bill in her mouth.
    I did the stuff with the mouth when I first started, now more occasionally. Just can be icky.

    At the nude club the girls do stunts like taking it with breasts, from either the customers mouth or hand, or putting it on his crotch and then taking it with the mouth. Putting between girl customer or another dancer&#039;s breasts. Prolly some more stuff, can&#039;t think of it at the moment.

    Oh, yeah, and they do a tip dance. Can be really time consuming.

    Where I work, it&#039;s common for guys to put the dollar in their mouth and we take it with our boobs. Other common ways are taking it with our mouths from behind the guy&#039;s ear and taking it on the side of our g-string. Not many girls wear garters around here.

    Female customers usually tip the same way guys do. They put the dollar in their mouth and we take it with our boobs. Sometimes I&#039;ll stick the dollar in the female&#039;s cleavage and take it out with my teeth. Guys go nuts over this. If the girl is cute and she is not shy about showing off her body, sometimes I&#039;ll hike up her shirt and show her bra and occasionally her breasts. I always ask the female customer if it&#039;s okay first though. The guy customers love this.

    At the first club I worked in, sometimes guys would put a dollar on their forehead and the dancers would bend down, sit on the guy&#039;s face, and grab the dollar with their ass cheeks! As you can probably tell, this was not a classy place at all (not much money to be made there either), and I&#039;m glad I got out of there!

    That&#039;s too much work, on top of having to dance (nude)! In most L.A. clubs, the customer is expected to tip by placing the money on the rail. We can dance in front of them on the stage, but pick up our money when our set is over. I always say &#039;thank you&#039; to each patron as I am collecting my tips, and ask if anyone would like a private dance. There have been times when I&#039;ve been &#039;showered&#039; by a big spender, in which case, one of the male staff members sweeps the stage and puts the money in a bucket.

    Wow,

    So many different ways to tip...lol

    I prefer just as she leaves the stage to give her some cash then and there I usually sit at a table right by the stage entrance and tip that way with a I liked your show.

    My 2 cents but I believe that is more respectful and most are shocked after dancing and collecting their dollars to walk off stage and have a guy hand em a 20

    Oohhh! I&#039;m gonna use the arrows and XOXO tips tomight with my friend.

    I like my tips in the sides of my G-string. However, sometimes I have to end up holding the front of it to my body so they don&#039;t try to slide it down the middle. I usually don&#039;t wear a garter because I think they&#039;re unconfortable. I feel very uncomfortable taking tips from some one&#039;s hand unless it&#039;s after a private dance. Thanks to all the posts, I now know why so many guys lay their $ on the stage instage instead of tipping me directly. I always feel like I have to pick it up.

    On the side of my thong. Another method that makes me very happy is when someone comes to the stage with many bills and just starts placing them all over the stage! Big winner with me....$$$$$$$$$$$

    I am in the NYC/northern NJ area, and I have always felt a little awkward about tipping dancers between the breasts. The way the dancers approach you for tips in this area that unfortunately is what is expected. I think I am going to make a concious effort to politely hand my tip to the dancer from now on, even though she is squeezing her breasts together. I hope I don't seem rude! What do y'all think? I think it will be more respectful.

    I'm agreeing with toxicgirl about the germs. I'm a garter girl myself. Saves the trouble of a) losing my money onstage and having to pick it all up after my set b) confusing my money with another girls' when we are onstage together c) "sneaky" guys who will obnoxiously try to slide the dollar all the way into the crotch of my g-string (how annoying is that?)
    And when I dance nude at other clubs and I have to take dollars with my breasts, I will slide clear deodorant over them first so the "lickers" will get that awful, chalky taste in their mouths and won't try THAT again! Cracks me the hell up!
    If they throw $$ on the stage, I won't crawl around picking it up. I'll do a dance, then lean like I'm going to take their tip, take it off the floor and hand it to them. Then I make them put it in my garter.
    I don't like $$ thrown on the stage. I feel it's disrespectful to me, and I only get on my hands and knees when I'm doing floor work If they want to see a woman crawl around on her hands and knees, they can hire a maid.
    Funny story for you:
    Years ago when I first started dancing, there were jerks who used to wrap quarters in dollar bills and twist them up inside the dollars. Then they'd dip the whole thing in Carmex and throw them at us, trying to make them stick to our bodies. So one guy thought he would be cute and throw one at me (bad idea). So when it hit me, I grabbed it, turned around, and without even thinking threw it back at him. It landed in his full beer and he got aggravated, tried to tell me I owed him a new beer. When I walked him up to the bar to "get his new beer", the bartenders heard what happened and laughed his sorry ass right out of the club!! Still makes me smile
