    In all seriousness though, I look at myself as an exotic dancer. Yes, we all talk to customers, dance alike, dress alike, but I think it's all in how you carry yourself. "strippers" the ones at my job are usually loud and in cliques. "Exotic dancers" usually work alone, and are making their money by more slow sensual moves while on stage and on the couches.

    No one get offended here: But IMO "strippers" walk around in skimpy clothing (ie. booty shorts, hell thong bottoms and bra tops) and leave absolutely nothing to the imagination.

    I don't think there is any difference

    just like "stewardess" and "flight attendant"
    or "secretary" and "administrative assistant"


    it's just another way to say the same thing that appears to be more agreeable

    ^^^^^Exactly. I think stripper is used perjoratively by some people but there's no big difference in my book.

    There are two school of thoughts on this one:

    School 1: An exotic dancer is someone with talent and skills whereas a stripper is someone who lacks talent and skills (and also usually isn't interested in 'improving' themselves)

    School 2: Just another word to describe what we do as per previous posts above.

    Or what's the difference between a housewife and a domestic engineer?

    Although some people may feel that one term is preferable to another, there is no discernible difference between a stripper and an exotic dancer. Unless you don't remove any clothes for money and you don't perform any sort of lap/private dancing. Even then it wouldn't be called "exotic dancing."

    i always thought that exotic dancer tended to be more of a term for a nude dancer rather than topless, don't know how i came up with that distinction. personally im not fond of the euphamism for either. i think "dancer" is suggestive enough. or just call me a stripper!! im not ashamed!!

    I agree completely. Stripper, Exotic Dancer, Entertainer, Dancer... all the same to me.

    except when you say "dancer" it's ambiguous....

    If you say exotic dancer, it sounds like you're being pretentious (if that's even possible in our profession.)

    I just say stripper....although I had someone accuse me of not being one because I identified myself as such since, "real stripper would never call herself that."

    they are the same to me, exotic dancer just sounds better to some people i think. either way you are doing the same thing--stripping.
    Oh, I musta took a wrong turn at Albuquerque.

    I say I'm a dancer and leave it up to the other person to figure it out. If they aren't really a part of my life I don't tihnk it' matters if they know what I do.
    It just sounds better, stripper is more of a derogatory term in my social circles for some reason. I use the word on here or in the club, but avoid using it anywhere else.
    Dancer is sufficient.
    Please don't lick me, it tickles..

    As a dancer-dancer and not an exotic dancer, when I get asked about my profession and say that I'm a dancer, peopel often say:"Oh, you're a stripper, then." My usual responce is "No, I'm just a dancer. A stripper is an entertainer, athlete, PR agent, sale person and therapist all in one. At least the good ones. As for me, I just dance."

    In my mind, stripper is a title you earn.
    But that can just be the fangrrl in me talking, as I seriously admire you girls.

    Sorry this post is completly irrelevant, just had to say it.

    It really depends on the intent and underlying tone of voice.
