    Default Women need an escort to enter?

    Do most clubs require women to have male escorts in order to be allowed entrance to a club? The thought honestly never crossed my mind until someone asked if it was required where I work and I had no idea. The woman I spoke to said she only ran across one club that didn't. Any thoughts as to why this type of rule's in place?

    Bingo! The same reason that, many years ago, some regular bars and restaraunts refused service to single young women.

    Oh gosh. Funny story. I was in New York, looking for a club to work in. I walked up to one - I don't remember which - just to have one drink, look around, that kind of thing and the bouncer says that I'll have to wait while he checks and sees if women are allowed in. So I (and, really, this is the best way to get hired ANYWHERE) raise one eyebrow and say "Really. Are you AWARE of the human rights code of New York state?" (Which I am completely not, by the way - I'm just a blatant and shameless liar) "Which prohibit you from denying me entry based on my sex?" and HE says "This is a GENTLEMEN'S club, so..." - the trail off was his, I'm not adding it. I said "so this is a private club, that demands a membership to enter? Because, otherwise, CALLING it a "gentlemen's club" doesn't make it so. Now. IS there a cover, or is there not?" - Again. I have no idea if this is true. I know HERE it's true; I have no idea what the laws are on sexual discrimination in NY. So I made my point and I did get a drink but I didn't even try to get a job - I just moved on. Good thing there are many clubs in New York. If I were in a city in Montana, I would have been screwed.

    Outside of that one club I've only been denied entry if I didn't have ID

    not only hookers, but wives/girlfriends coming in to look for or check up on their man. or to start a fight with a girl. or to sit there and be generally rude. i have seen them all. i have also seen plenty of women customers who conduct themselves with class, but that is a bit of a rarity, sadly. also, young single ladies tend to get their drink on and at some point try to dance or chat up customers or whatnot. i think the rule is there for everyone's benefit, really. most clubs will bend said rule if they know you, of course.

    It kind of sucks that a lesbian couple can't get in and have a good time like a hetero couple could.

    I wish there could be more MALE customer who conduct themselves with class.

    My local Austin club allows single women in. Groups of them come in for bachelorette parties oddly enough. I am sure there will be plenty tonight. Its 50/50. Half are the coolest and I love dancing for them, the other half are there for a laugh at our expense.

    Lesbians are great, but sometimes they intimidate me oddly enough. Also 50/50. Some are there for the show and experience, the other half like dances. I wish more lesbians would approach me I really like to dance for more women

    I live in an area that has a very high gay population. We've had some good lesbian customers, but on the most part they are cheap. We do have the rule also that you have to be escorted by a man, but if you are obviously a lesbian there with your partner, they let you in. But yes, the rule is there to protect dancers and shoo away drunk girls that try to take the attention away from the entertainment. Also, the hookers. We've had a few just sit in the parking lot and wait.

    as for the post Jenny made....i agree it is probably not legal. who knows? it certainly sounds shady. but i suspect if you truly push it, they'll let you in and look for any excuse to give you the boot. what's the legality of the signs most places have about "we reserve the right to refuse service to basically whomever we choose to.?" and while i agree that while it may be discriminatory and sucks for the girls who want to hang out and be cool, i stand by my earlier statement that it's really for everyone's benefit in the long run.

    I can't say i've had bad experiences with female customers at our club yet, lesbian or otherwise. Guess i've just been lucky.

    I have only went to to the strip club by myself once and I didn't have a problem getting into the club. I can understand the reasoning behind the clubs not wanting single women in the club but it really does scream discrimination, I am sure a good lawyer could make a great case for someone who was turned away in a situation like this.

    what about not letting a woman in at all, even though she's with a man? that's got to be illegal right? It was at gogo-rama in nj, I swore I was gonna look into filing a complaint or something but Im lazy.

    The rule is meant to keep hookers, scorned wives, bitchy/drunk girlfriends, and girls who just want to work without auditioning or actually being hired there out. I can see how it would be necessary to implement this rule. However, just like most rules do, they step on the toes of some people, in this case, girls who just want to go in to enjoy/spend money on the dancers. I can respect this rule, even though it works against me. IMHO, this rule should have some loopholes. Keep out the ones who need to be kept out, but don't send loads of potential money for the dancers and clubs away.

    I have worked in clubs with that rule as well. I have also seen the need for such rule too.

    Well, I THOROUGHLY understand the need for the rule....

    ....on the other hand, one of the clubs where I used to dance was a VERY friendly place, kinda like what your neighborhood bar would be like if there were also topless girls dancing on a stage. Picture "cheers" with dancers and cigarette smoke. ANYWAY, girls used to drop by -- friends of the dancers, dancers who weren't on-shift, locals, etc. It was kinda cool. No hooker probs cuz the bouncers used a little intelligence (rare, eh?). Anyway, that was a great place to dance, even though the money sucked there. But, it was very friendly and safe.

    I was denied entry once... but it was on the grounds that I was supposed intoxicated....
    however I hadn't been drinking, and in fact never drink... I was completely sober, so I
    asked that they breath-alyze me. They refused. I guess the real reason was that
    they didn't want women going into the club.
    I knew a bar once in Ensenada Mexico that was a "couple only" bar. So after a women got
    in she would go out and bring a guy back in with her (for a little money) and then go out again and bring in another guy. Pretty soon the "couples only" bar was filled with men only. hahah

    My best customer, and someone I also consider a trusted friend, is a female. When she went to Las Vegas, she was extremely disappointed to find that she could not enter the club of her choice without a male escort. She was offered by one of her regular SF dancers to be escorted in thru a back door next time when said dancer was working in LV, but declined; she doesn't feel that she should be treated like she's doing something wrong. In this case, it is unfortunate for the club and for 1 or more would be lucky ladies working the club. This gal has money and spends it.
