Up until recently minors could only work in juice bars I suppose...but the law recently changed...
although some clubs are still reluctant to hire minors...
I believe the law is this...if you work in a regular club you can only be on the floor to dance, whether on stage or to do a private dance...otherwise you must stay in the dressing room...makes it kinda hard to hustle huh?
Hope that helps!

Yeay! Somebody has info! Well I'm currently 20 years old and am turning 21 in October. The woman on the phone that i spoke with said that because of this I wouldn't be able to give any private dances (I think she meant VIP room but she may have meant lap dances) and that I wouldn't be making a lot of money. Any other Oregon SC rules you could share would be helpful! Thank you so much!![]()

I think it depends what part of OR you looking to work in....most of the clubs in Portland will allow you to dance and do table dances you just cant sit on the floor, as I said before....but I worked a club last week in Medford and minors can ONLY perform on stage...NO table dances or VIP sooo it wouldnt be worth your time...same for Astoria, they dont hire minors....I dont know about Eugene or Bend....
either way due to the money situation here in OR you may want to wait until you are of age...or work in a juice bar.....it is neccessary to be able to mingle with the customers....unless you get hired at a club where the stage money is just that good....

While we're on the topic, I've been considering moving out to Oregon (Portland, specifically) for a while. I was wondering how different strip clubs would be from out here in Ohio. What is contact, house fees, clientlie like, etc. etc. Also, I'm 19 and I was wondering if I would be able to work as a cocktail waitress in any of these clubs, or if the minimum age to serve out there is 21. Any information on Portland/Oregon would be great.
Thanks guys!
I'm probably going to be heading to the club tonight to see what kind of rules they have and I will ask wich rules are "Oregon-wide" for you Voodoo.

At my club if you're under 21 you can only dance on the stage. No private dances, lap dances, shower shows, sitting at the bar, no being on the floor area. I have to be escorted from the stage and to the dressing room, same goes if i have to go to the bathroom, lol! So I'll just hang out in the back until it's my turn to dance again until i turn 21 in October! There's no touching of boobs, crotch, butt, same for dancers touching the customers. No picking up money with anything but your hands. If you're under 21 you have the option of getting totally nude or not, up to you.

shesupsidedown, have you worked in astoria? do you know what its like? i am moving there on wednesday and i have never been to that club before. i called them and talked to a women who said i would surely be hired because im 21 but im still nervous. ive never worked in oregon at all, but because its a no contact state (which i like) i hear there isnt that much money to be made (which i dont like)
Oregon isn't completely no contact, only in the bars that serve alcohol. The lingerie modeling studios are like a lap dance only club. The customers come in and enter the lounge with the available models. He chooses his model pays the fee (amount of time he wants to spend with the model) to the house. The model then takes him to her own private VIP room that is about the size of a tanning bed room in a salon. Then it is up to the model to work the customer for tips as the entire fee goes to the house (usually).
She may just sit and talk for half an hour (for a non tipping customer) or she may provide full service, but most of the models perform toy shows while the customer maturbates. A half hour toy show would probably net the dancer about $100 in tips from the customer.
these modeling studios are everywhere in Portland, but the rest of the state only has outcall girls.
The clubs do have rules like no self touching of breasts, buttocks, or gentials, while performing. Also the dancers must stay at least 6" away from customers while performing either on stage or during table dances. Dancers must be 21 to mingle with customers, otherwise they can only be in desinated alcohol free areas of the bar. Most of the clubs desinate the VIP room or table dance areas as alcohol free zones, and this makes it difficult to get a customer to linger more than 20 minutes without a drink.
Of course there are always exceptions to every rule. There are many clubs that don't care if the dancers are grinding, and will let minors even drink if they feel like it. I have a feeling that most of these clubs are remote enough that they aren't bothered by liquor commission. There isn't really any vice envolvement as there isn't enough money in the state budget to enforce strip club rules, but the clubs could lose their liquor and business licenses if the dancers are breaking the rules.
You might also be aware that it is difficult to make a buck in Oregon. The economy is depressed, and Portland has sooooo many strip clubs, that the public is just numb to it anymore. Drinks and food is cheap (even the upscale clubs sell beers for $2 a bottle), and the door charge is small if not free. It is usually cheaper for guys to go to strip clubs in Portland to have a beer that it would be to hit the local hot spot, or even a restaurant.
If you get out of Portland and into the smaller towns (like Astoria) you will have a better chance at making decent money, but the smaller towns have even more economic problems, so it is risky just the same.
Sure you can make good money in Oregon, but you have to work hard at developing a clientele, keep a regular schedule at the same club consistently, and of course be a good hustler.
My favorites in Portland are Dolphin1 and Dolphin 2, and Stars Cabaret. I have also heard that Safari is okay, but I have never worked there. If your under 21 try The Acroplolis as there are 5 stages, and not much table dancing at this club.
Promote yourself and earn more money! This is a business that is owned by strippers for strippers. Let's make that money!
I worked in Astoria for a few months....
summer season is really the ONLY season there...after summer, money goes bye-bye....
well...money was waaaay above average for awhile but than the club was recently sold and literally ALL business went away....
we have no idea what happened....strange.
But when I left a few weeks ago we were lucky to make 200 a shift and my friend and I are the mega-hustlers there....
That club can really only handle 6-7 girls working a shift and only 2-4 that are mega-hustlers...anymore than that and you will lose on money...its just to small....
As for the club itself...its a tad scary....some of the girls are are a little rough around the edges...a bit older....can be quite competitive....the clientele expects alot for thier money...they want to be ENTERTAINED....they could care less if your cute you better be good at what you do as well to hold thier attention....
Annies is not representive of OR strip clubs in the sense that they get much closer than Portland and the lap dance area is much more "private"...some question about all that goes down back there....
It was OK for the summer but it can be overwhelming....also you work 10 hr shifts....
any other questions let me know...
By the way....Medford was a beautiful club, great girls, strict rules....if you can get to Medford go there instead....I will be.

Another thing to consider Stripper83 is Astoria is EXTREMELY small!!!!
If you strip in town and live in town be prepared to run into customers EVERYWHERE and I mean EVERYWHERE....*ugh*
I would go out to eat and 3-4 guys that had seen me naked the night before would be staring at me and the cook is my regular....ha.
It gets real uncomfortable fast.

I didn't realize that most of the money was made on stage. That Sucks!
the rules regarding minors at clubs in and around Portland vary from club to club, just as the types of private/lap dances vary greatly. the club i frequent most is the only one i can speak of. minors can now dance on stage as they can everywhere else, they can also do private dances in a little couch area they setup specifically for minors near the dressing room. these private couch dances ad Dolphin and Dolphin 2 are extremely intimate, but also closely supervised. the girls must be wearing a full dress or leggins; no bare midriffs. but yes, i believe you can do some grinding if the customer is lucky. check it out Orchid. perhaps i'll see you sometime.
