Strip Club Etiquette



1. NEVER, under any circumstances, request a dance from a stripper, EVER!!!
This rule is non-negotiable. I dont care how bad the bitch is, if she doesnt offer you a dance, then she dont want one, period. Asking makes you seem impatient at best, awestruck or desperate at worst, and it completely ruins any chance you may have of gettin over on her, so save the begging for the simps, old guys and white boys.

2. Do NOT make eye contact with any stripper who's on stage
While on the pole, (the non-superstar) strippers do one of a couple things, wish/pretend they were somewhere else, and scan the crowd to see which sap they can hit up for $$$ when they get off stage. If youre gonna gawk at the azz, do it while she's not looking. Unless you plan on throwin some cash at her, or getting a few dances when she's done, avoid locking eyes, and remember rule 1.

3.Try to make eye contact with the potential mark while she is talkin to other dudes But not while she is alone, she'll just walk up to you and start her hustle. And not while she's dancing for another dude either, she'll think youre trying to get a free peek, i.e. youre overly horny, broke, or both. Definite turnoffs for a stripper. But if you make eye contact while she's talkin to another dude, you dont come off as horny, and you can use that eye contact to your benefit. Ill get to that later on.

4. ALWAYS Reject the First Offer
This rule can be bent, but I wouldnt advise it, unless youre in a hurry, or at a spot where you know you wont be going back to for a while. When Diamond, or whoever offers you a dance, turn her down with a smile and a polite excuse. Make eye contact to drive your point home with sincerity. Make it an excuse that implies that but for some small technicality, you would LOVE to get alot of dances from her. The superstars/professionals will most likely keep it movin, but if your game is tight, the stars, mid level chicks, and newbies will see you as a potential victim that, with a little convincing, i.e. flirting, touching, grinding etc, can be convinced to give up the cash. If she stays to talk, she's most likely thinking she's about to go in for the kill, little does she know, she aint fuckin wit a rookie.

4. Get Her off balance
Whether its a doctor, a laywer, a stripper, or a nun, women cant resist an opportunity to run thier damn mouth. Strike up a conversation with your mark, get her talkin, and get her mind off of makin money. I admit, its tough, damn near impossible to do this with the true professionals, but only about 20-30% of the workin chicks fit into that category, so you'll spot the low hanging fruit pretty easily on most nights. Make her laugh, and feel comfortable, the two go hand in hand usually. Make fun of your job, it'll help if she's apprehensive about hers. A good number of the chicks in there, especially new ones, are uneasy about dancin naked, asking strangers for dances, etc. Get her to relax, and she'll stay there, making no money, for quite a long time. When you think about it, its no suprise that many strippers would rather shoot the breeze with a seemingly friendly guy than parade around naked, begging strangers for money.

5.Watch for "the hook"
Usually within a few songs of talkin, unaware that she's being hustled, the mark will try to hit you up again. Say no again, of course. But your game must be even tighter this time. If you can get her to sit for more than 3-5 songs, youre just about in there. At that point, its decision time, she can either call it quits and try her luck with another dude, stay there talkin, (makin it obvious that to all that she's makin no money), or throw "the hook", meaning start dancin for free, pretendin that she's workin to avoid embarassment, and trying even harder to make some money out of you in the process.

6.Throw the Counterpunch
Now that your mark is off balance, and no longer focused on makin money, you can go in for the kill. But youve gotta do it smoothly or it wont work. When she gets up to start dancin, you must ignore the urge to stare, grab, or reposition yourself in any way. Dont do anything that will make it seem as though youve changed your mind about gettin a dance. If you show your hand to quickly, she'll call your bluff and be expectin money, or worse, she'll realize she's been had and make a quick getaway before youve had time to enjoy the fruits of your hustle. With your body language suggesting that youre still not interested, playfully call her out for trying to entice you, accuse her of trying to hustle you, and let her know its not going to work. Tell her you thought she was cool, but to go find someone else to hustle, there are plenty of simps she can get paid by, and come back and talk to you when she's done playin games etc.

7.Set the Trap
If your hustle accusation is well timed and well said, it should work easily. Number one she's off her game at this point, and number two its true. Again, resist the urge to respond to any advance she makes. At that point, the money (she thought) she was just about to get is slippin through her hands, and she looks silly to boot. If she still doesnt leave and keeps dancing, that means she is goin all in. Youre holdin pocket Aces and gettin ready to clean her ass out.

8.Close the Deal
That she stays could mean a couple things, either she wants to convince you that she wasnt really tryin to hustle you (GTFOH). She really doesnt want to go back to reality, i.e. fold her hand, cut her losses, and move on to the next guy. Or if youre lucky, she's green, and genuinely intrigued. If she's new, its possible that no one has hustled her this way before, and she may still think she has the upper hand. In which case she'll place another bet, meaning she'll start giving you free dances, hoping you'll eventually change your mind and pay for some. Or failing that, she'll dance then try and hit you up as if you had agreed to pay, hoping you give in to avoid a scene. So when she starts dancing as if it were a real dance, removing clothers, bending over etc, tell her firmly that you dont want any dances, that she needs to go make some money, etc. Again she's either trying to prove that isnt a hustler, she's trying to avoid lookin like she wasted all that time and got no dances/money, or she'd rather stay there with you and be relaxed for no money than get maybe get paid to maybe dance with a stranger. Maybe a combination of the three. No matter her motive, at this point, youre in there. Just remember to renew your objections at some point during each song to confirm that she understands she's not going to be paid, and wink at your boyz to let em know youre the fuckin man.

9.Plan Your Getaway
All but the dumbest marks will tire of making no money after a few freebies. Now that she's danced a few songs, and at least made casual observers think she made some money, she'll feel comfortable about walking away. Congratulate her on finally making the right choice, and send her packin. If she doesnt stop on her own, the dances are good, and you want the hustle to work again the next time, make an excuse, and head for the bathroom, bar, or parking lot after no more than 4-5 songs. If she goes on stage later that night, shoot her a tip, and if she works up the nerve to ask for more dances, you'll have to give in and pay her for at least one or two, IF you want to hustle her again at a later date that is.

10.Last But Not Least
Strippers watch other strippers, regardless of what they say. They want to see who's shellin out cash, and who thier main competition is. This is especially true of the ones not makin money. They watch all the rest of the strippers like hawks, to pick up pointers, to hate, and to steal customers if need be. Rest assured other girls will notice what youre doin after a while. More often than not, at least one of the crew will get called out by a professional for pullin stunts. Good thing is, one stripper is hardly ever going to drop knowledge on another, so dont worry about anyone puttin you on blast. In fact, Ive noticed alot of the more seasoned ones tend to flock in our direction, why I dont know, we're obviously not shellin out cash. Probably curiosity, stripper B wants to know why stripper A would spend so much time with someone without making any $$$. Some strippers peep the hustle, see it work a few times, and assume that the dances are actually being paid for. This is good b/c they might come behind your last victim looking to cash in on what they think is the gravy train, and become your latest victim instead. There are good nights and bad nights, but more often than not I can go on the road and steal one from the home team, especially if theyre playin alot of rookies. In Miami, Coco's, Take One, Angels etc are great places to sharpen and use your game. Diamonds, not so much, there they have an all star team with lots of veteran leadership, so youve gotta be at the top of your game to come outta there with a win.
