    Default just say no!! (a rant)

    "maybe later" (said with a condescending smirk that means "maybe never")

    "let me have a few beers first/I'm not drunk enough yet" (when they've been tossing them back for two hours now)

    "a lapdance is such a personal thing, i mean it's a big deal, i don't know if i could..." (yes someone actually said this last night to one of my friends)

    "but i might get too excited"

    "i don't know if i could handle you"

    "i'm about to leave" (yet i look over a half hour later and there he is, still!)

    "i've got to wait for my buddies to get here"

    "i'm waiting...until the time is right" (said to me last night...WTF, you think you're in a fucking Tolkein novel? we close in a half hour!)

    "i'm out of cash, otherwise i totally would" (that's why we have an ATM)

    "well maybe; let me see you onstage first/let me preview the goods first" (but when i come offstage and tell him it's playtime, he hems and haws and uses one of teh above excuses)

    "ok, but let's talk for a little while first" (and then 20 minutes and several requests later, you still haven't gotten a dance and he's whining "but don't leeeeave!")

    Fucking hell! Strap on a pair and JUST SAY "NO THANKS"! God DAMN, pussy boys! What the hell do you think I would do if you just cut the bullshit and straight out said "no thanks"? What the fuck are you so afraid of? I'm a big girl, I can take hearing no. What I CAN'T take is hearing a load of bullshit instead! It makes you look pathetic, you're only embarrassing yourself with these stupid "lines", we all know that these lines are usually spouted by broke-ass losers who don't want to admit that they're broke-ass losers, and hearing a bullshit line makes me want to kick you in the face.

    Hey, if my look doesn't do anything for you, fine. If you're a broke ass and don't want to admit it, okay. then JUST SAY NO.

    It's funny because I actually tell guys this...I knock of every one of their excuses(for my sole entertainment) and then ask them why they don't just say no. "Are you afraid of me or something? You think I might beat you up if you say no??" That always embarasses them. It makes me laugh. Next time just try asking them "Why do you make up excuses?? Why don't you jsut tell me no thank you? It's NOT gonna hurt my feelings" Maybe if all strippers work together we'll get the point accross!! Nah, probably not lol

    I especially love the "In a little bit" and "Maybe later" during uptime. Dude, this is a limited time offer, as the DJ has been saying over and over and over again. In fact, any kind of bullshit during uptime drives me insane. OBVIOUSLY somthing special is going on. Lights are flashing, a siren keeps going off, the DJ has explained multiple times the cost, the two songs, the free gift, etc., we've all paraded around the pole and are now swarming around the club for takers. Are you even KIDDING me with this "Huh? What's that? Two songs, you say? For how much? Uh . . . let me think about it . . . maybe later."

    What kind of a fucking idiot are you and what strip club-free planet do you come from? This is the 2-for-1, I've got exactly ONE MINUTE left to offer it to you. Take it or leave it but don't waste my extremely limited time and thus my chance at getting another guy!!!

    If someone tells me "maybe later" I go back later and get the dance. This works nine out of ten times.

    The guys aren't under any obligation to buy a dance from any of us. Sometimes those excuses are just their way of trying to tell you no without being an ass about it. Don't get too pissed, that will ruin your money faster than anything else. No one likes a bitter stripper!

    Another one of my all time favorites is.. " I'm married."

    Or: Will you let me touch " insert body part here."
    And yet again: " I'm just here to watch/kill time."

    And lastly: " I'd rather take you out to dinner."


    Geeze.. these guys really know how to make a girl feel fabulous..

    I'm so sick of the "I'd much rather take you out to a nice restaurant" but they won't spend any money on you in the club. I think the next time a guy says that to me I'm going to say to him "I'm telling you this because I'm assuming you don't know but when you tell a dancer that you'd rather take her out to dinner than get a dance from her is one of the biggest turnoffs & insults you give her". And I'd like to see what he says or the expression on his face. Sometimes I think they think that will impress us because he's "not the typical customer" and then if that's not the case, they're just being cheap and hoping to get laid, but what they don't get is that approach just makes us detest them a million times more!!!

    You know, I just might do this myself, as I get this ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME. I've never come up with a really good repsonse, as I do my best to stay friendly and keep trying to sell (I am actually quite determined to not become Bitter Stripper). I'll save it for when I really need it, and try to stay smiley about it, but hmmm, that's a good thing to try. Nothing else has worked for me so far, anyway, so why not?

    The irony is that this is SUCH a typical customer thing to do!!! Ay yi yi! It reminds me of the guys who are soooooo proud of themselves that they actually - ooo, brace yourself - enjoy eating pussy! I so want to say "Gee, what a coincidence, so do I!"

    I loooove the lines. They are mostly just an attempt to say no in what they think is a nicer way. Really it just wastes our time. I don't like it when I come back and sit down and then still don't get the dance. I have a newfound appreciation for guys who are blunt. Not rude but blunt. It be nice if guys just said no thanks "I will only be getting dances with so and so," Im waiting for so and so" whatever. Please don't make me think you really wanna dance w/me and you don't. Its their $ they can spend it as they please.

    As a customer, this understanding is appreciated.

    If all dancers were SW posters -- pros who appreciate a quick, efficient "no" -- then experienced customers would probably just say "no" lot more. But a lot of other dancers get really offended by it. Some follow up with aggressive questions like "why not?" or "why did you come in here then?" or just storm away. This kind of conflict kinda gets in the way of enjoying oneself.

    Hanging around SW I have learned to be politely honest, but customers who give out vague answers may just be trying to avoid a scene.

    When I say "maybe later", usually I have just gotten there, or just finished some dances. I really do hope you will come back.

    ^^ Appreciated. I do take the first "Maybe later" at face value, and try to return later. The second "Maybe later", especially if it's evolved into some other excuse, is when I raise my internal eyebrow . . . and then the third is definitely wasting my time. No, no customer is ever obligated to buy any dance ever, like Andygirl says, but after two (or more) "Maybe laters", just say NO so I can cross you off my list already!

    A Lot. It "seems". I agree with both sides of this one....the lines drive me nuts, and most of the time I just look at the guy and think to myself...THAT'S it, thats what you came up with? And smile sweetly and say, "well then, marinate for a bit and I'll swing back around later...but don't forget about me!"


    The other night however, I couldn't sem to control my "Stripper Bitch" and she popped right out before I could stop her!
    I say: "Hey cutie, would you like a dance?"
    He says: "Oh....uhm....I don't think so...... But you're VERY pretty!"
    I say, "Hey thanks, I'll notify the cable company."

    It made me laugh and then I was much nicer the rest of the night....

    This might be part of the problem. If, after five min., the guy is not ready for a dance then it is time for you to smile and politely move along. I don't waste much time getting to the point. Sitting at a table for more than one song without asking for a dance is not a good strategy.

    I take more guys back for dances than a lot of girls at my club, and it's not because I'm better looking or a better dancer or anything like that. It's because I go in with a great attitude and I pursue the dances with a gentle yet unrelenting technique. I go past guys who have just come in and stop and say hello, introduce myself, and continue with a promise that I'll be back around in short order to take them to the back. It works the majority of the time. And I always check back with the ones who say, "maybe later."

    If you've stopped and sat on the guy's knee for a quick introduction and he says he's not ready, say "Ok, baby, I will be around in a little while to molest the pants off of ya." Couple that with a big smile and a wink and they will remember that you were friendly instead of surly when they said they weren't ready for a dance.

    It's all in the attitude. Every bit of it.

    i dont care what they say, just dont touch me!!!

    Guys all the time are trying to cop a feel as they say "no, but you're very pretty/lets go to dinner." I slap their hand really hard and say "if you want it, you have to pay for it."

    alot of them are just trying to avoid a scene...because some girls get very beligerent if a custy say no. i never get snotty with the maybe later--they usually DO mean come back later. if they say it again--even when you have worked the room for about an hour before you came back--then you know not to try them again.

    the best you can do for ones the ones that ramble on about how & why they cant/wont get a dance, is get up when they are in midsentence...they will get the point they need to keep it short.

    it amazes me that no matter where we live in the world, strip club customers have same shit to say.
    I'm getting my Dial-A-Stripper service up and running again. If you are in NYC or NJ and are interested in private party dancing, email candiceda[email protected] with your SW handle, contact info, photo (if you have one) & best time to call and I'll get back to you asap.

    If you're having a party and need strippers, email me with the details and any questions you have. Thanks!

    I'll usually take most of what they say at face value the first time. If I come around again, and it's the same it's usually an excuse; however I'm never rude about it. I will often come back a third time, but spend all of 30 seconds with them. This way, if it was genuine (and sometimes I've been around 3 or 4 times after the "I want a few more drink" and they did get dances) I get the dance, and if it was an excuse, I don't feel that the 30 seconds I spent were wasted. I go a lot on my instincts though. Some I think need the shove, but some have no intention and it's obvious. I don't go back to those ones.

    I agree that most excuses are their attempts to say no politely, except for "maybe later" which sometimes means "maybe later." It's not worth worrying about, IMO. Although if we're going to talk about irritating responses, I also nominate the over-the-top super-apologetic "no" complete with hand-wringing, genuflection, and flinching facial expression. Dude, are you afraid I'm going to hit you, or are you just scared of breaking my heart?

    or the ones that try to spent 5 minutes explaning why they don't want a dance, and it's the end of the night. I don't care why you don't want a dance buddy, you're wasting my f-ing time!

    Always, try to return to those that say maybe later, I just got here, or I'm waiting for my friend. Most of the time they are telling the truth. Pay attention to the floor. Know who did just get there or who did just get done with dances.

    I've never tried hitting up the "maybe later" guys a third time. It always seemed a little to futile and unnecessarily frustrating. Has anyone else had success with it?

    Ok, the flip side of the 'maybe later' rant is, there is one dancer who pretty regularly asks me for dances... and I pretty often say 'yes'.... and she almost always says: "Ok, I'll come back later"... lol... usually by the time she does I am already getting them from someone else or I'm on my way out the door already.... this has happened so many times, you'd think she'd have figured out by now that when I say "yes"' I don't mean: "I'll wait for you"
