I am a stripper

[Perseid]

got an idea for a different line of work?

hee hee

the truth is, I really am

[Fire Walk With Me]

1. Unless you're wearing that shitty purple border complete with flowers and grapes,

I don't even want to watch. x(

[Perseid]

2. I will dance ONLY for you

and I think you will watch..........

[Fire Walk With Me]

4. I hate, just HATE being chased by women who want me to watch them take their clothes off.

x(

[Perseid]

6. 'scuse me

I will try to tell my friends to be nicer to you from now on!

if it happens again, cum to me.

oops

[taterguy]

3. First post your resume

Then we can decide what the appropriate way for you to make a living is :)

[Perseid]

5. Bachelor of Science

plus over 60 more hours of credits.

Yet, here I find myself. Making money the old fashioned way. I definitely earn it.

[taterguy]

7. I suspect you're making more money in your current job than anything else you could be doing

Which of course says something somewhat troubling about our society but what the hell?

You're an entertainer and you're probably very good at what you do.

[idgiehkt]

I found out there are 'topless' housecleaners in my area

that make 4 times what I do. Go figure. :) What the market will bare I guess.

[Perseid]

8. within one year, I will have enough money to pay off

my master's tuition.

I'll decide after that what happens.

I will get through university without owing a nickel.

[taterguy]

9. So we could have an interesting discussion about this

But how could we do it without getting the thread locked? Since an essential component of what you do involves, well, sex.

And it's difficult to discuss those matters in a civilized, quasi-mature way.

[Perseid]

10. Sex isn't necessarily involved, though

it's nice when it happens.

[taterguy]

11. That comment just makes me reluctant to continue the conversation

It just seems so implausible

Maybe you're telling the truth but it seems very unlikely.

[Perseid]

12. I wrote to try

well, nothing.

I don't care what your thoughts are.

[taterguy]

13. I didn't mean to offend I was just stating the obvious

Sure it's possible that some women in your profession enjoy doing things with their clientele.

But based on the typical patron that seems unlikely.

One of my favorite anecdotes about that profession was talking to a gay guy about his brother's bachelor party.

Someone said to him: This will turn you into a straight guy.

His response was: Well, if every man in the world looked like the men here then it probably would.

[Perseid]

14. that's funny, but

I don't have a clue how to respond.

[pokerfan]

21. I find that awesome

And consenting adults should be allowed to do whatever and whomever they want.

Besides we all sell ourselves for money:

"I do everything for a reason. Most of the time the reason is money." —Suzy Parker

"I did it for the loot, honey, always the loot." —Ava Gardner

Can't say that I've been to many strip clubs. Couple of bachelor parties and my gf dragged me to one in Canada. It was a ski vacation and we were four couples. It was actually the girl's idea as they had never seen one, so we went. My gf even bought me a dance, which was kinda embarrassing.

There was a soccer player for one of the Arizona schools (ASU or UA) who lost her scholarship because she was stripping on weekends. Now she never played the coed angle on stage, never wore her school sweater or school colors of any sort. She got "caught" by some members of the football
team who, by the way, showed up wearing their lettermen jackets. Of course they didn't lose their scholly's.

15. Ok somebody has to say it.

This Thread is Useless Without Pictures.




:hide:

[Perseid]

17. no pics

you have to be here/there!

[texas1928]

18. But, But...

I don't know where you live. So you have to help us out.

:P

16. Perl hacking

Perl shops are hiring.

[seemunkee]

22. So are Java/J2EE shops around here

If I wanted to hack code I could be doing it tomorrow.

[sasquatch]

19. First where do you work and could you pm me some pics

[SKKY]

20. This thread is SOOOOOOO useless without pictures...

But to answer your question, no. Not many that can pay as well. Besides, if what you're saying is the truth, and I give the benefit of the doubt here, take advantage of what you've been given and use it to your benefit. I see nothing wrong with stripping if the means do in fact justify the ends and as long as you don't have any problems looking in the mirror.

23. Why a different line of work?

If you're happy with it, do it.
BTW, I met a lovely woman at a local DFA candidate forum. I had no clue she was a stripper until she asked questions pertaining to the rights of people in her line of work.
I work in advertising. Now that's a job to be ashamed of.

24. Lawyer?

Most strippers I've worked with (used to be a driver in my dirt poor days) could read people and think on their feet really well. Probably a good skill to have as a lawyer.

:shrug:

Or social worker. Doesn't really pay well though.

Of course, really only you know what on earth you would like to do. For all I know, you have a burning desire to become an Oracle DBA.

25. Hey, you joined DU on my birthday!

I went to law school with a stripper who put herself through school.

Your future sounds bright and your present sounds like something I'd enjoy, too.

Good luck!

26. Just say you're an ecdysiast. nt
