When men go to the strip club, they see the strippers as something hot to look at naked. While this may be what they see at the moment, there are more to strippers than meet the eye. Here are some things to know about strippers so you will be more aware the next time you head to the strip club.
Strippers Have Lives
Many guys look at strippers and assume that they are their job. This is not the case. All strippers have lives outside the club. Some have boyfriends or husbands, and some have children. Some girls work in the clubs to put themselves through college or as a second job to help support their families. Just because you don’t know a stripper’s story, it doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have one.
Not Every Stripper Has an Alcohol or Drug Problem
Unfortunately, there is a stigma that all strippers are alcoholics or addicts. While this is the case for some, the majority of strippers don’t have issues with addiction. This is just an idea that people get thanks to the things that they see on television and movies.
Self-Esteem Issues Are Common
Most people think that because a woman can get up on a stage in front of a large group of people and take her clothes off, she feels good about herself. This isn’t always true. Working as a stripper can cause a woman to have self-esteem issues. Sitting in a dressing room with a bunch of beautiful women makes it easy for a stripper to pick out her “problem areas” and focus on them often. Many women who never had self-esteem issues in the past develop them after becoming a stripper.
Strippers Don’t Sleep Around
Many people believe that because a stripper gets on a stage and takes her clothes off, that she is willing to do more. This is not always the case. Many strippers are in serious relationships. Others aren’t willing to do something extra for the money. Sleeping around is another stigma placed on strippers that, in most cases, isn’t true.
You Can Do Whatever You Want To a Stripper
Many guys believe that the strippers in the clubs don’t respect themselves and that they don’t deserve respect. This idea makes them think that they can say and do anything they want to a stripper. This isn’t true. When a stripper is working in the club, she is at work. She deserves the respect that any other person deserves at any other job. Just because a woman takes her clothes off for money, it doesn’t give guys a free pass to be disrespectful.
It’s Not an Easy Job
Working as a stripper is very difficult. Sure, taking their clothes off isn’t easy, but there are many other things about the difficult job. A stripper needs to be athletic, and she needs to be able to dance. She also needs to be able to walk and dance around all night in 10-inch stilettos. This is not easy to do. Most people think that a stripper’s job is simple, but it is actually much harder than most people think.
The next time you go to a strip club, remember the things listed above. It might help you treat the dancers better and even respect them more.
