Much advice has been offered on the subject, but I still find many confused and worried faces. Some people were brought up to believe that the strip club experience is supposed to be more than what they are reading in many offerings of the subject. For those confused disappointed faces, it is time to hear the truth, strip clubs can be exactly how freaky uncle Jim told you they were, when he was your age, so many years ago. You just have to learn a few rules of the social society that governs the strip club industry.

The number one rule involves your attitude. Your attitude includes your appearance, your mood, and your character. If you want to live up to Uncle Jim’s legend all 3 ingredients of your attitude should be sharp. Make sure you are well dressed( no jeans or sneakers), well groomed, feeling good, and confident before you even leave the house. This will go a long way to helping to start your night off well. Never go out to the strip club angry, drunk, or looking less than your best, because strippers have very good memories.

Once you arrive to the establishment, don’t be afraid to say hello to the security guard or doorman that lets you into the club. Pay your cover charge, if there is one, and tip the cashier a couple of dollars as well. This action gets you recognized as a positive person who came to have a good time. Creating a good vibe with the staff will earn you respect and possible be beneficial in the long term. When you are ready to enter the main stage area find a nice table that is centered between the tipline, the area lining the stage, and the back wall. This way you don’t appear to be over excited nor like a person who doesn’t plan to tip.

When the waitstaff arrives at you table, order your drink and here is where you request your “ones for fun”. Your requesting of the change in this manner accomplishes two things; the dancers will see you plan on tipping and the waitress will be happy to get rid of some dollar bills. Stay in your seat and enjoy your first drink, letting whatever happens…happen. Never appear to be to anxious for anything. You have all night to party.

When you have finished your first beer and are ready to start on another, at the time it arrives is when you move towards the stage. It doesn’t matter if you really like the girl on stage or not. Your hoping to get lucky some how some way. Remember the tipline is only for tippers so this is when you start tipping. Rules for tipping: don’t ball up the dollar bills, don’t create paper airplanes with them, or try to rub them on the dancers. Don’t try to make change from the stage money or pick up anybody’s money and try to put it in your pocket. All the money that hits the stage belongs to the dancers now.

If the situation arises and you find yourself being approached by dancers offering you their time always be polite. Remember it is free to talk but dancing costs and they are there to make money. Don’t hold them for a long conversation unless you plan to ask them for a private dance. Don’t underestimate the “not so attractive” dancers, because if you are nice to them, they may share this information with others. They may also be one of the girls that coordinate the after hour and private parties that you may want to attend. When conversing with the dancers always have a positive, passive attitude. This means you should show interest but let the conversation develop naturally and do not blurt out or beg for any information (phone numbers, addresses, breast sizes…etc).

Taking your dancers back for the private dance can and will be exciting but ask a few questions first. Don’t assume all dances are the same. A local club in Richmond, Virginia offers lab dances, v.i.p. lap dances (where the dancer is mostly nude), and lets not forget the $500.00 champagne room ( I don’t have $500.00 so I don’t know). This is important information because you are allowed to do some touching in the v.i.p. dances but always ask about the rules in your establishment first. While getting the basic lap dances keep your hands to your side unless she grabs them and puts them on her body herself (happens more than you think). Only agree to accept dances that you can afford and only continue to pay for good service. Don’t like the first dance, don’t go for a second one.

At some point in travels to your new favorite establishment, you will become well known and the girls will be more comfortable with you. When they are comfortable with you, well son, you are in. That’s when you get the best Bang Bang Bang for your buck.
