    Exclamation I need everyone's help!

    Hi everyone, my house mom asked me to gather a list of 'rules', or stripper ettiquette, for example, not stealing custy's from another girl while she's talking to him...etc. Could you all help me out? Thanks!

    It is different in every club. At my main club it was a total "get your ass kicked" offence to join a table while the dancer sitting there was on stage. At my current club it is totally acceptable.

    Give you housemom a list of the main complaints that you have heard or exerenced with the new girls.

    Yes! Write down a list of all the girls complaints then copy them and have the newbies read it.Basically telling them these things are frowned upon at this club,and please refrain from doing any of the above.

    the one that really comes to mind is like you said above sorta.......If i'm sitting at a table with a man or two, don't come over and fucking "steal" one away for a dance! What the hell do you think i'm doing...making friends? That's just disrespectful and it's a good way to make enemies in the business. I've spent my time working up someone and here comes a girl who just steals him away.....makes me really angry. In the club i work at it's okay for someone to come sit at the table if there are two guys, i think it's wrong. It pisses me off, because i'm multi tasking and working them both over, not just fixiating on the one! I can understand if there is 3 + guys at the table obviously they need more than one girl. But 2 and under stay away.

    If a dancer is sitting and chatting with a customer, do not speak to that customer. You can say hello to him later when he's not busy.

    Do not ask customers sitting at the stage if they would like a dance. They are stage customers, and should not be distracted from tipping whomever is on stage.

    NEVER SHARE ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT ANOTHER DANCER WITH THE CUSTOMERS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
    real name
    marital status
    make/model of car she drives
    what city she lives in


    Never share any of the above things about yourself, either.

    Do not undersell dances or VIP room charges. *ie do not sell a 20 dollar dance for 15 dollars or a 400 dollar VIP for 300 dollars *This hurts the quality of the club and the money made by all of the girls.

    Remember to tip your waitresses, managers, floor hosts, valets and house moms. All of these people help you make money; there would be no club for you to work in without them.

    when your set is done, get off the stage as quickly as possible so the next girl can begin her set- you should not continue taking tips after your last song ends

    No lotion or baby oil on stage! And if you're one of those girls who likes to load their hair up with oil/grease, keep it away from EVERYTHING.

    I agree witht the not asking to borrow stuff from people. The only exception I can possible see to this rule would be if it were your first night ever as a dancer and the reason you don't have something is because you didn't know you'd need it. Other than that always bring your own costumes/shoes/etc. and don't be the girl who is always bumming stuff from everyone.

    If you run out of baby wipes or spray and borrow from another girl for the night, offer to pay her a couple bucks for using her stuff

    I agree with this one. This recently happened to me but the other guy still got dances from me. Although, I think I could have gotten more from him if she hadn't barged in.

    I think it's harmless to approach the other guy if the dancer is not talking to him at all but is just engaging in a conversation with his friend. What do you think?

    Ditto!!! I understand sometimes we all run out of one thing or another, but there somehow seems to be this strange breed of dancer who despite having pursefuls of cash, is too poor to ever buy their own gum, cigs, hairspray, wipes....

    Also don't be the girl everyone bums stuff off of. Others *will* take advantage. Example: When I started at my club I had lot's of nice costumes, and was letting certain girls borrow outfits. Next thing I know, I come up stairs to find them digging through my stuff, & everyone trying on my things like I'm an outlet store or something.

    Hide, or better yet, lock up your things. Don't let anyone you don't know or don't trust know what you have or that you have extra anything. There are many who will use anything left out like it was theirs, never to replace it.

    Keep your income info to yourself. Esp avoid bragging about how much you made or exaggerating your income. Not only is it tacky, it also increases the liklihood your cash will get stolen.

    Here are a couple of contributions off the top of my head--

    Remember: Not every girl likes to tease customers with girl/girl action, and if she does, she may not like to do it with just any girl. Respect the space of the other ladies trying to make a living. Just because we work in a sexually charged environment does not mean that everyone is okay with YOU being sexual with THEM!

    Remember: If you would like to join a table, it is polite to ask to join rather than just plop down without at least asking, "Can I join you?" or "Can I join the party?" or some other opening line. It is rude and unbecoming to assume your presence is welcome. You wouldn't do that at a regular bar, would you?

    That is great. I laughed so hard when I read this. hehehe. I agree that cut throat is nothing but scandelous. At a lot of clubs it is asking to get your ass kciked after work.
    I deffinitly agree that girls should not just assume tht another girl is ok with you grabbing her all the time. I HATE that. I'm not nice about it though. When other girls do that crap I will tell them in there ear where others do not hear me, Hey Imm not comfortable with this kind of stuff unless I know the girl, or only with certain girls, or not at all. Whatever fits the situation.
    I used to be the girl EVEYONE barrowed things from. I still loan out a lot of my outfits but only to girls I know. When nebs ask I tell them .. No, I only loan to friends there is a botique in the club, you should go pick something ot of it.
    If a girl invites you to come sit with her at a table and you make money there, when possible, try to return the favor. I hate it when I do this then I see them making shitloads and never do they return the favor. This isnt complicated stripper rules, that is just plan common curtesy. Same thing with asking before you barrow. It is common curtesy not some weird stripper thing.
    I hate when girls stick there lips on my straw without asking. ummm ... I dont want your germs, but thankyou, I have my own!
    If you are sitting with a girl that is a littl emore prudish then yorslef, dont help the custy persuade her to join in on the fun. Just stay out of it. Everyone has there own comfort level and I dont need you to try to adjust mine.
    Try your best, especially if your new, not to start shit with girls that have been at the club for years. I had a girl tell me the other night that she didnt think I was "all that" it was completly uncalled for. We were sitting at the table and a custy complemented me, so she had to say her negative opinion. Well, nobody asked her for her opinion, and untill we do, nobody fucking cares. Needless to say I am not the only girl she has done this to and some other girls have devised a plan to let her know that isnt cool. I feel sorry for her, thats all I can say.
    Do not accuse girls of being on dugs because tehy lost 3 pounds. Believe it or not other things can cause weight loss, like... go figure ... exersize!!!
    If you see a girl wearing an outfit that you own, dont go put it on. Wear something else please.
    I could grip all day about cut throating so I am just going to leave it at that. DONT DO IT!!
