    Pole Stds????

    A girl I know in town, and I always here about others, claim that you can get STDs from poles.....the clap has evidently been sticking to poles like glue.

    I feel almost ridiculous asking this, but as a potential stripper, I figured someone would actually know the answer to this.....

    Please keep in mind that the clubs that I would be dancing in, and the clubs that the "clap" girls work in....all various....are all only TOPLESS....not even contact lap dances.....so????

    Any medical facts would be greatly appreciated!

    I'd only worry about that type of thing happening if I were dancing nude and were rubbing my crouch on the pole..If you're worried just use a hand towel w/ disinfectant on it to wipe it off.

    I'm not really sure...I would think if it was topless that as long as nobody was dry humping the pole...it wouldnt be too big a risk...but I'm not exactly an expert. If yur that worried just don't put your puss on the pole.

    You shouldn't rub your pussy on the pole because it's effin' DIRTY! You'll get a yeast infection or something.

    Unless the girl before you had an STD and rubbed herself on the pole so that it was WET and you went up and did the same thing while it was still wet... you'll be fine, STD-wise. So basically, no you're not going to catch an STD from the pole... but lots of girls at work think you can.

    In Nursing I learn crabs jump six feet. That is not the only thing you can get from the pole. I reccomend you clean the pole. After each girl, the club seem to forget to!

    Besides it will get the customers attention, they will wonder why you clean the pole.

    ^Would crabs jump onto the pole? Would they be able to stay there? It seems like you'd be more likely to get them from the floor.

    My Dr told me that if the surface is dry (I had been freaked out about toilet seats), you won't catch anything. Which STD's are you talking about, Leilani?

    ^Hmm, maybe my Dr meant that when VIRUSES dry out, you can't get them... but bacteria can still live?

    EDIT: Okay, I did some online searching... it looks like it is POSSIBLE (but extremely unlikely) to catch chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, and crabs from toilet seats (so I'd put poles in that category). But, like it's been said, don't rub your bare pussy on the pole and clean it. Honestly, depending on your personal life, you'd be more likely to catch it from plain ol' sex.

    This is 100% true and that info is straight from my Dr.

    I would not touch the pole with the pussy, and not touch the pussy with your hand after touching the pole.

    This makes me crazy.

    If your doctor told you that you can get chlamydia from a brass pole, you need a new doctor. It IS possible to get these bacteria and virus from toilets or other surfaces that may be WET and HUMID and good breeding grounds for diseases... But even catching that shit on a toilet seat is pretty fucking rare. In fact, crabs would be the most likely you would catch from a seat.

    The worst you are going to get from touching a dirty pole or dollar is a bad cold. If you're touching it with your pussy; a yeast infection, bladder infection... The vagina is a pretty sensitive place and you shouldn't being sticking it on ANYTHING that isn't clean, sanitized, or buying you a nice dinner first.

    I promise you are not going to get herpes or gonorhea or any of the like from a stripper pole. Unless someone comes on here who SPECIFICALLY had that happen (and not a friend-of-a-friend story), I'm not buying it.

    Snopes.com has about 2327 articles on this.

    No you can not get STDs from the pole.

    You can however get a staph infection if you have an open cut... thats about the worse your looking to get. Just clean the pole with rubbing alcohol before you use it and life is peachy.

    I've heard of staph infections getting passed around at clubs before. No STD's though.

    At any rate, just clean the pole before you get on it, don't touch your pussy, and wash or sanitize your hands after you get off stage. I keep hand sanitizer in my locker because my new club doesn't have the spray sanitizer anymore in the dressing room. Whenever I stash money in my locker, that's when I sanitize my hands. I got tired of getting colds from work, and now that I work with a pole my hands feel greasy/dirty and just smell bad. bleh.

    Um... what about Hepatitis A and E? Or, for that matter, any other disease contracted orofecally, including intestinal parasites?

    Here's a TMI story for you: As a newbie stripper and incorrigible nail-biter who stupidly accepted tips in her mouth , I wound up with pinworms.

    Moral: Wash your hands obsessively while at work, and don't let money get anywhere near your mouth, even indirectly. (I know we weren't talking about taking tips in one's mouth, but I want everyone to learn from my mistakes, even if it does entail a minor threadjack.)

    As a nude dancer in a high-contact club (while having protected sex in what I believe was a monogamous relationship) I contracted chlamydia. Of course, condoms are not 100% effective, so I cannot prove that I contracted chlamydia at the club, but I suspect it.

    Moral: Keep your pussy away from all surfaces.

    no, you will not get STD's from the pole. Unless you're suction cupping your kitty to the pole, or disassembling the pole and using it as a dildo shortly after someone else had been doing the same thing...I wouldn't worry about STD's.

    I would worry about catching other more easily spread bacteria and viruses though.

    Just clean the pole and don't stick your kitty to it.

    What do you clean the pole with after each set? I've heard of alcohol, any other suggestions?

    I think the only thing you can get is pimples on your butt, and thats from just dirt and sweat and crap. STDs are far too fragile to survive outside of their moist habitats. Unless you have direct sexual contact with another dancer who has something, you can't get an STD. Feel better? And even if you did get exposed to something- ALOT of disease is all in your head. The more you're thinking and stressing, avoiding and taking all these unecc. extra precautions the MORE likely you are to catch something. I just wash myself regularly throughout the night and don't sweat it.

    ^^^My club provides Windex. It looks a little, I don't know, unsexy and matronly to start spraying and wiping, but it cleans the brass pretty well. I'm not sure about its bacteria-killing capacity, though.
