10 reasons not to date a stripper

[Jmetz]

Ms. Bratt, you seem like a lovely lady, but I don't think we're being harsh on the ladies in here and I'm not hating either. On the contrary, I love women! There are lots of great women. There are also women who carry very, VERY minimal baggage, but an overwhelming majority of strippers do NOT fall into that category.

I am convinced there is a reason that stripping attracts certain women, and it isn't the money. Sure, there are women who get into it because they know they can make more in one night than they do in a week, but a lot of women who need money don't instantly jump from being a struggling receptionist to stripping. I would venture to say most women would much rather work two or even three jobs rather than taking their clothes off for money. There's something about societal norms and standards, as well as peoples' own inhibitions, that prevents us from entering a line of work that forces us to take our clothes off. There's a negative connotation with the word "stripper". To most people, it's a degrading line of work. Most of the strippers I've known, and admittedly my interaction with them was well over a decade ago, have some serious issues that supercede those norms, standards, or inhibitions. They also don't really care about the negative connotation.

If I sound like I am hating on women, I apologize. That certainly was not my intent.

Please leave your man card with the front desk before you go home.

Did I say anything that would revoke my "man card"? I think the better question would be; Did I say anything that was incorrect?

If you've spent more than an hour around a stripper, and sliding dollar bills into her g-string while she's on stage doesn't count, you know these girls have some serious issues. Most of them come from a lack of a strong, proper male father figure in their lives. Since they have these "daddy issues", they seek acceptance from men any way they can. Others have sexual or physical abuse in their past that has never been healed through therapy.

Ask yourself this; Would you ever enter a serious relationship with a stripper? If your answer is no, why not?

i know a guy here at work that married a stripper. Had a kid with her. Kid was not even two yrs old til she wanted to dance with the pole again...Yes divorce and i commend the guy for being an upstanding father. I dont know what he tells his son about his mother. Best thing is probably the truth when he can understand.

I was just giving ya a hard time.

Ah, in that case, consider my balls busted.

[bulldog]

I have known quite a few guys that have dated a stripper and it never worked out!

My buddy even spent like $10K on a huge diamond ring, well before going to prison, and a couple weeks later she was already with someone else. She swore up and down she was going to wait for him to get out...yeah right she wanted that ring. I'd never trust one or respect what they do.

[daemon]

And here I thought the one I dated was just bat-$hit crazy.

[McVaaahhh]

now take it to the next level...

How about dating/banging/marrying a porn-star?

[mdub]

awh dude....why did u go there....

anyhoos

i remember yrs back riding my mnt bike pass shot gun willies just at or before 10am. there were 4-5 strippers outside smoking hangin out before there shift started i figure. poor gals were pasty and skinny lookin. look like they needed a few home cook meals. basically they look like coke heads. sniffin , kibbitzing, shaking, and smoking their cigs having a good ol time...

[MissBratt]

LOL no need to apologize! I was just saying some sound like woman haters of course not for any women in here, speaking in general of course! I know a couple strippers one is just .. wow.. we wont go there and the other is my ex friend. You guys are right money goes straight to the head of a stripper! Everyone is entitled to their opinion Thank you Cane you sound like a gentleman.

Shit some of those girls are fine. Id hit it.

[Ghosty]

There are SOME good one's out there who have REAL job's and money. No reason to hate

Where pray tell, is this magical utopian paradise you speak of? TELL MEEEE!



Heheh, yeah I know they're out there. Not at the bar/club though, and definitely not at car shows/meets, those are as bad as strippers. Maybe I need to hang out at the library more often...

[MissBratt]

Ghosty- you are too funny my friend! Library... not so much....I know lots of them at the hospital I work at lol most are nurses though!

There's nothing wrong with nurses. I get along very well with nurses. Perks of the job, I guess

My friends Sarah & Rana are nurses and they both say the same thing. Lots of very nice, smart, etc. women they work with daily. No guarantees on baggage/drama vs. any other profession, but I'm guessing a lot less percentage than strippers, heh.

[MissBratt]

Perks of the job huh ? LOL well lets see, Nurses are caring and smart, Strippers are.. well.. we wont go there!

[McVaaahhh]

Yeah, I'd have a hard time kicking Tegan Presley out of bed...

[#1Townie]

Yeah shes hot!

[Streetdoctor]

I too work in healthcare... nurses are some of the craziest! and I'm married to one lol

[koru]

well i think i just need a woman who hates my guts .....all the ones who said they loved me didnt work out so well.

Hahaha right?

[silkboxr]

The only difference between a stripper and one that isn't is that she's honestly straight up telling the world money makes my clothes come off... whether you spend 2 bills on a date or a stripper it's still 2 bills!

Ever wonder why woman always want to dance on the box stages at clubs and show off grinding on each other? They all deep down inside want to be a stripper...some just have the courage to actually do it...

But like it was said before all woman are crazy!!!

I've never met a sane nurse. And I mean that quite literally.
