    ok, was the heavy girl actually fat or just kind of thick? did she look 6th months pregnant like an average person or like 6th months pregnant the way heidi klum and denise richards did when they were pregnant (like they just ate a couple good meals but didn't look obviously pregnant)? regardless of your industry, public humiliation during the firing process is wrong. from what i understand by reading these threads and boards, even if you aren't the most glamorous or gorgeous you have to at least look as pretty and presentable as you can. so as sweet, charming, cute, etc. that you are- if you're like 5'3" and 230 lbs., you'll have some problems working at a good club at least. and being on the opposite end (6'0", 120 lbs. of skin and bones, no curves at all) should be difficult to get good gigs as well. you have to take care of yourself; be healthy and good looking. so being on crack, anorexic, obese, whatever isn't going to make you look as presentable as you can be. that's my opinion anyways.

    I'm sorry, but if you look 6 months pregnant and you aren't, then you should not be stripping. I work my ass off dancing and modeling, so why should girls who don't take care of themselves be allowed to do it?

    You know, this whole thread can be summed up with the wisdom of a bumper sticker:

    NO FAT CHICKS.

    Im surprised that girls that are way fat have the confidence to strip. i mean wouldnt they feel self conscious. i have heard customers talk about larger girls really loudly before.
    i like the fact that even if someone doesnt find me attractive they cannot ever say i am not in shape and toned. i wouldnt be able to get up on that stage with rolls.

    idk .. was she always fat, or did she let herself go after she was hired? if they hired her like that, then they shouldn't be firing her unless they're really cleaning house. but, as many posts point out, this business is highly looks-oriented. nobody wants to pay to see an ugly, fat girl dance around naked. well, maybe SOMEONE, but that's not the majority.
    Now, mgmt doing this in front of everyone, that's not cool. In fact, that only shows how unprofessional your mgmt is. I'd hate to have a real issue and have to talk to THEM about resolving it. Good for you for looking for another club. (Did I just use 'for' three times in one sentence?!)

    I was stripping at one point when I was chubby. I was in deep denial about my body at the time, however.

    Corgan, w/ you, I think your face more than makes up for a couple of lbs you gotta lose. You're flawless.


    I do agree, though, about the standards in SC these days. That level has to be brought up again.

    I dunno...I'm a curvier dancer, but I don't consider myself fat...Well, BMI has never been over 22, so it's not like I'm technically fat, but throw me in a sea of coked out eighteen year olds (like one club I work at), and yes I look thick.

    Me? I don't care what anyone else who's dancing there looks like. And I remember once sitting with a guy who often got dances from me...he pointed to the girl on stage and said "god, where have your standards gone?". I said that I don't do the hiring. Then one of the thinnest girls there came on, with her fake boobs, and i said "there you go. Skinny." and he was all "she's got no ass. Gross..."

    I mean, I can see where a lot of you are coming from, but a part of me does feel that if a girl is making money selling dances (not bjs), then well, maybe she really isn't so ugly or whatever.

    Thick little me, I'm still a top earner...I kinda feel like my presence is justified. Firing her like that was unnecessary. It would have been nicer to pull her aside and ask her to lose 10 or 15 pounds or whatever, and then come back, if that's what they needed to do. As it stands, based on the firing conditions itself, I'm sure if she lost a few and came back, she'd be re-hired. But public humiliation is cruel...i can see why that would upset you.

    I'm not saying everyone should be allowed to dance, and that clubs shouldn't have standards. Obviously they should.

    But I'll say this: in all the clubs I've danced in, i have seen so many girls with so many different looks...I don't think dancing is as selective a club as some people here are saying it is. I've seen girls at supposedly the most selective club in the region who weren't all that great looking, objectively. I think almost any woman of a certain age could mold herself enough to strip somewhere. You DON"T have to be a beauty queen to be a stripper. A decent haircut, excercise, and some make-up go very far. Girls on campus at my school are, on average, far prettier than girls at strip clubs. Just my 2 cents.

    ^ Um, as many have said in this thread and elsewhere on this site many times, there's a big difference between being thick and having a fat gut and/or fat rolls. If a chick looks 6 months pregnant, she's got way too much gut to be stripping. I am also a bit thick but my curves are proportionate and I have a flat stomach. LOTS of "thick" girls look great because their bodies are nicely shaped. Thick is fine and good (we need the variety); fat is bad.



    This reminds me of a certain group of fat sloppy bitches I once encountered at work. Several of them had come in with ONE guy, like an after work office party. I dunno, I guess they wanted to be cool or something because they clearly weren't bi or into the strippers. Anyway, they wanted a dance from me and sent the guy to drag me from across the room to come over and dance. I danced for a couple of them and they whispered and snickered. Then one of them got really loud and yelled, "it's the black lights!! THAT's why they look so good! The BLACK LIGHTS are what makes these girls look so good!!!" At that point I quit dancing to collect my money and leave, all the while looking directly at the big fat gut and LARGE fat roll hanging over her pants. I wanted SO bad to tell her that NO hunny, it's not the blacklights you dumbass. NO amount of blacklights would EVER hide that bigass gut and fat roll hanging over YOUR pants!! ugh.

    I only kinda half agree..... I mean if managements allowed to fire a girl for being overweight they might end u taking it to the next level like "No you have too much cellulite, um you have a stretch mark, your ears are too big, your mouth is too small" If anything management should have pulled her aside and approached her about trying to lose a bit of weight before firing her and publicly at that. All Im saying is there are a billion things that make a girl "unattractive" and the fact that noones perfect really makes me think all girls in the industry need to watch out if managers are starting to think this way.

    That's just silly. More often then not if a girl has an ugly face she won't get fired. And while faces matter alot, this is a body business, the body is what the clubs worry most about, they don't want a bunch of fatties jiggling around their poles. The girl must have gained weight, she looked 6 months pregnant!!! People's faces don't change much except if they get plastic surgery which would hopefully make them look better looking.

    another thing is bigger girls with bigger boobs are often very popular

    My club would totally fire the showgirls if we got too fat. We have some rather large podium girls, but the showgirls are kept up to a much stricter standard. I always worry that if they have any more really slim showgirls come along to the club, I'll lose my position on stage, because I am so much bigger than all the other stage girls. I honestly think I'm borderline... so there's always that stress in the back of my mind that I'll lose my job due to my weight.

    I work with, and have worked with at clubs in the past, some girls who are very very chubby, but they always have had either nice big boobs or really really pretty faces so they've been kept around.

    I agree. From my perspective (as the client) it's really cool to go to a club that employs women of all body types. For me, it's really the attitude that makes someone sexy, not the lack of padding. My favorite dancers are the ones who really look like they're having a great time.

    Yeah, I did, though it tended to be European, Latin American and Indian guys who liked me the most. I'm also a C cup when I'm a size 6-8, any bigger than that and I go up to a D-DD, so maybe the breasts helped.

    You have to draw the line somewhere. I promise the majority of men would rather see a frowning slender girl than a gleeful 300 pounder onstage.

    Just a side note, you're not a client, you're a customer. Client has a whole other meaning.

    But if she is still selling dances obviously someone finds her attractive. 6 months preganant is maybe a bit overweight i agree, but she should still be given the same rights as everyone else and not be fired for her physical appearance. If she has confidence, is comfortable with her weight and is still making money for herself and the club they have no real reason to fire her. She hasnt broken the rules so really i think the club is at fault for hiring her in the first place. being told your fat in a room of (most likely size women is really humilating and really unfair in my opinion.

    So clubs should be obligated to keep every girl that some guy MIGHT find attractive or get a dance from?

    i'd have to go with it was right to fire her, but it was wrong to do it in public.
    I'm part of the cuddly girl brigade myself with a wee bit of squidge on my tummy, but if i had a tummy bigger then my boobs or looked pregnant then i would fire myself!
    If she is making money then she shouldnt have a problem going to a club with lower standards and getting a job there. do you know if she's tried to lose any weight? I mean you hear lots of stories on here of girls who started off with a bit of extra weight and lost it all to get a tight little body. I'm certainly on a big weight loss journey myself, but if she's not even trying then it would probably be best for her to be replaced.
    but yeah i can't imagine how horrible i would feel if i got fired like that.

    So basically everyone had a bad night not just the "Fat" girl and it wasnt a "MIGHT" spend money on her moment it was a "People do spend money on her just not this particular BAD night" the top earner made 500 ffs. basically what im saying IS.. she hasnt exactly been treated fairly and/or equally. If the manager wanted to fire her he should have done it discreetly not brought her down to the same level as the prostitute and if he wanted to fire her because she doesnt make money he should have fired everyone else who had a bad night not based on the kg's she is. Now some other girl will be the "Fattest" girl in the club now thats shes gone is he gonna fire her too?
