    Default PIMPS: Lowlifes or just lazy bums?

    Here in Tampa, we have a few guys who consider themselves "pimps"...I'm curious to know how this works in other cities? Do the clubs know about them and ban them like here? Do the girls work the clubs or escort? I've always wondered what draws girls to guys like these...

    Pimps are lowlifes. I know for a fact that many of them use physical violence to prevent their girls from escaping or force them into heroin.

    I wouldn't believe most guys who claim to be pimps at stripclubs.

    You put pimps in quotes..."pimps"...what does that mean? Do you mean these guys are with girls in the clubs and get their money or something, or they have dancers that they've turned out and try to pimp them to customers? I live in Tampa...what clubs are we talking about? I doubt you'd see this at a place like Thee Dollhouse or 2001. I've never seen anything like it.

    From what I've seen in the two clubs where they were actually referred to as Pimps, I dunno if they're lowlifes, thats for people who know them better to judge, I do know that normally, they bring their friends in and really use the fantasy to their advantage. Often have 2 or 3 girls with them and just show off. They seem to normally be regulars who might get some form of mediocre special treatment and they turn into pimps solely because they refer the guy to certain girls based on personal opinion.

    Note: I do not know a single one of the 2 that where referred to by the dancer I was with as 'Pimps' but they seem to probably enjoy the notion of a 'High Life' in the club and like that they can be something they aren't outside the club.

    Hope that helps.

    Now if we're talking about pimps who sell women for money, business-ish or not. IMHO total lowlifes. Anybody who thinks People = Product for sale, regardless how willing the person may be to sell their body, is a lowlife period. My humble opinion only.
    People are not ruled by their memories.

    If we're talking about actual pimps, they are scum. Actually, I could see ways to be an ethical pimp, which would amount to being a prostitute's agent, but it's not actually done as far as I know. Pimps who run drug addicts are lowest form of scum imaginable.

    If we're talking about guys who fancy themselves pimps, they run the gamut from scum to loser to amusingly delusional.

    Nowadays guys refer to themselves as "pimps" if they consider themselves serious players with the ladies. Like 50 Cent's song. "P-I-M-P". Is this the kind of thing you are talking about. That is just guys bragging about their success with women and is not to be taken too seriously.

    Now, the guys that put their girls out on street corners or in brothels for them to prostitute themselves? Yeah, I would say they are pretty much lowlifes. They usually use some form of intimidation to get these women to work for them.

    to those in tampa...I work over at mons and i personally know of at least 4-5 girls that have pimps...they have them work the club 9-10 hours...6-7 days a week...and take 100% of their earnings...i dont know much more than that, but these girls are being worked to the bone...i have a girlfriend who works at 2001...you know her, tampadancer, im sure....she had one for a long time....not anymore though...she finally smartened up...i know a few of these guys from high school, mutual friends, etc...they have girls in a few of the clubs around here, but mostly in 2001 and mons...obviously b/c theyre the 2 busiest/highest volumn clubs around....

    I can't be the only naive one...TFD works at 2001 and she doesn't see it.

    Any girl who works 9 hour days 7 days a week and then hands that money over to a guy is an idiot.

    Sorry if I've insulted someone here who does that. If you do, please reconsider your current "man." (man placed in quotes purposefully)

    i have to agree about the idiot part, but as far as the girls not seeing it....they dont notice it or just dont care...i hear about it in the dressing room on a reg basis...those girls dont socialize much since theyre told talking gets in the way of money-making...either way, theyre dumb, but to say theres none here or you dont notice them...well...

    I've worked with girls who had "pimps", "boyfriends" "agents" and "managers" throughout the years.

    Gorgeous girls, girls who looked like men

    Girls with college degrees, chicks who dropped out of high school

    Women with 4 children, women without.

    5star clubs and hole in the wall joints.

    Girls who just started dancing, and those who were years into it.

    Russians, Brazilians, Black and White Americans, Japanese girls you name it!

    One thing they all had in common was a STRONG hustle..they worked every day from open to close for the most part---

    Some of the guys beat the women and use violence and intimidation to keep the women "inline"

    Some use sex, and the illusion of love to keep the women in line.
    Drugs, introduction to a new social class, a feeling of a family unit, or almost anything else can be used to get and keep the girls in line.

    Most of these women couldn't save $10 out of $1000 if they had to without thier pimps "guidance"... esp after he convinced/reinforces that thought in her head.

    Most of these women have no drive to work unless someone is holding a whip over their head to do it. Again reinforced by the pimp.

    A lot of the time the pimp plays the game of "WE". You MUST go to work 6 days a week for 12 hours so that "WE" can buy this house.--I'll manage the money and take care of the deals and you take the money from the "tricks"

    then he convinces her that since she is capable of making so much they should get another girl to help them out--hey if she's pulling in $1500 a day, then if she shows the ropes to a new girl they can make it twice as fast.

    I used to look down on these girls --I thought they were weak, and stupid, lacking in drive, ambition and guts. But over the years I've found that they've mostly just been lacking a loving and caring person in their lives-- a sense of direction and community. The pimps know this too, and if you can give a woman that when she's down and out, you've got her for good.

    I stopped looking down my nose at these girls and started sending them positive vibes instead. All the extra negativity just reinforces the pimps "It's us against the world" routine.

    That being said, I'd still watch my purse around a girl who's been turned out. If it's her ass or your wallet guess who's going down?

    The low level pimps are going to make it known to evryone. The more upscale pimps are very quiet about their business. You'd think he was a regular well dressed, well mannered customer.
    There 's a cop in Atlanta that has 2 girls....Playmate quality $2000 a pop girls. He doesn't go around with red and yellow clothes, 'gators and feathered hats.

    I had a customer for over a year who was a pimp. Sweet 50+ old gangster Always dresed to the nines, perfect gentleman with impecable manners. He never tried to run me, but when we'd go out to dinner sometimes his girls would come along--I learned a lot from him

    Some of the managers we've all worked with have been pimps.....I know for sure 2 of my former club owners were pimping girls.

    If a guy tells you he's a pimp, he's probably full of bs-- just like the guys who brag about being millionaires.

    Ninas got the closest idea to what i see down here...the ones here dress like normal guys..no leather and feathers type shit..LOL!..id crack up and couldnt take someone serious who looked like that!

    The ones here that i personally know have used physical means to "put their girls in check", but most of them prohibit them from using drugs or drinking...they make at least 5-6000 a week out of my club...kinda pisses me off that IM not making that! lol...i dont have the deisre or the energy to give my money away or work 7 nights a week...talk about burned out!

    Well hell.. I PERSONALLY HAVE NEVER HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT PIMPS AT MY CLUB!! or any girls being pimped or whatever.

    Im not naive, I just make my money and leave.

    Ok.. so maybe there are a couple girls that COULD have pimps now that i think about it (one in particular) But i havent seen/heard of any of it around my club.


    What are the typical signs that a dancer would have a pimp?

    I don't think that's a good way to i.d. that kinda girl...Hey that attitude describes most good hustlers in any given club.

    If I see the same guy in the club watching her almost every day. He seems more like a B.F. than a customer. She gets a little anxious when he's around.
    She makes beaucoup cash, but has no car doesn't wear very nice clothes, Works EVERY day maybe both shifts. Works with bruises, black eyes etc. and doens't act the least bit embarrased about. Isn't shy about getting caught doing extras. Her "man" has a really good in with the management-- infact HE buys the managers drinks! Those things usually tip me off. But in the end, what do I care? I can't rescue her, I probably can't convince her to leave him, these girls are usually discrete enough to keep from getting everyone into trouble, and if you screw up her game you've gotta deal with her and the vengeful pimp. I've seen that before-- Gold Club Atlanta '98 an girl got her face sliced in the V.I.P. room with a champagne glass......very ugly business, that.
