I like strip clubs.  Even if they're limited, you can sometimes find an innocence that can't be found elsewhere.  This innocence gives me a huge boner.

if my wallet's going to be a good bit lighter in the morning I at least want to have gotten what I came for.

What qualities are there in a strip club that bring out innocence?

I have been going to strip clubs since I was 15, and don't plan to stop any time soon.  
Many here will say why go to a strip club when you can get a sure thing with a provider, and for a lot less money? Well it all depends what you are going there for. If you are looking to get laid, then the better option is definitely with a provider. I go to strip clubs for entertainment. I enjoy being surrounded by many beautiful naked women. I enjoy lap dances too. Have I gotten lucky at a strip club? Yes, but not often and it is not my primary reason for going. In fact there have been many times where I stopped by a strip club on the way home from an appointment with an escort. It was not at all because the escort left me unsatisfied. It's just something different.

I'll go to a club, about 1am after I've had a session with my lady for the night. You'll find yourself relaxed and not all wound up. You're chilled and laid back that you become a challange for the girls to try to squeeze a dance or more from you.
I've had a few girls give me their number for a 5am romp.....try it.

You wind up paying about what it costs for a couple hours with a top-shelf provider.

I use to spend every Xmas in Key West and there was a strip club that I must have spent a grand in the night after Xmas. It was a huge tease, but my taxi driver gave me a real Cuban on the ride back to the hotel so it wasn't all bad.

i worked in a strip club for a little short while, i could not do it...you have to hustle guys, and you cannot even go down on them for all money that they pay you

this world. I would much rather spend my $ on a provider rather than a stripper who thinks I am their ATM machine. I don't need to be teased, just satisfied (tease before the finish is OK).

when you take your wife......had the BEST time of my life when me and my wife went in vegas a few years ago. lets just say she now LOVES playing with the ladies!!!!

Offering $ for sex in strip clubs is a sure way to get thrown out ...

Okay, that's pretty hot.

Gotta' give props there.

in DC, you cannot get lapdances so you're pretty much paying to watch them dance while drinking overpriced food/drink. In Pittsburgh, I went to a strip club because one of my favorite porn stars was there. That was fun. I ended up getting a DVD from her but a lap dance from here was $150. I'd rather put that towards a provider than a 4 minute dance

Started going to strip clubs and like most of the hobbiest on this thread, moved on to more exciting venue.  
 Better bang (pun intended) for the bucks.

To me there are a lot of strippers who seem like they wouldn't do escorting in a million years.  So that's what I mean by "innocence",

Nice because you can spend an affordable evening with a variety of beautiful women.  Multiple hour dates with an escort just aren't worth it for a guy my age.

yep there's something about them that escorts don't quite capture.  It's the guest service.  It's the ability to just sit there being a creep eyeing several women up and down.  You can also go to the tip rail and throw like 7 $1s on the stage and tell the dancer to spread her legs (and they always do it).  

yeah I agree it's probably where most of us started.  Definitely is the case for me.

I love Vega topless clubs that specialize in big implants and high mileage laps dances. In one night, I can spend hours in the club get dances with hands on half a dozen babes or more. And go into the VIP, for two different HJs. About what I'd spend for two hours with a fav escort, but a different kind of erotic experience.  

Me too.. spent thousands on VIP rooms.. got off like twice.. once a CBJ.. the other a hand job through my pants (then I had to walk funny to get the Hell out of the club)..  
A girl offered to come to my Golf rental condo in Myrtle Beach I paid her several thousand.. she still said she did not fuck for money.. Huh?  Shame on me for not being clear with my intentions..
No more.. Stripper math is crazy.. an hour in a VIP room for more than $500 ? mo way not since I discovered the Hobby.. It's less fake.. The girlls are nicer.. I actually make friends with them.. and it's a hell of a lot more satisfying.. I can't begin to justify a strip club for anything.. I think if I went now.. I would be avoided after abut 10 minutes..

And if you get your ass kicked by someone someday pulling that kind of shit in a club don't be surprised.

hobbying. I had made friends with a few dancers and DJ's though so I would go see them. I found I liked the eye candy and spending hours there. I started going after sessions for a beer or two and dances. I've even done a few VIP room visits from time to time to get a blow job.

...keep doing the creepy stuff one of these days a dancer will invite you to meet one of the bouncers. Thing is you won't know about the invitation until the bouncer shows up to introduce himself. He'll make sure the door doesn't hit you in the ass on the way out though come to think of it he might help it hit you on the way out.

That's it! Strip clubs are like a gateway drug. Somebody should ban them LOL

I too started at 15, but my first strip club was also a brothel in TJ. So I got to break two cherries in the same day, my first strip club and my first hooker and the ripe old age of 15. I had already lost my virginity over a year before, so I didn't break that cherry, but it was quite an experience for a 15 year old. Best five bucks I ever spent.

There is an art to getting the most out of a strip club and strip clubs are yet another example of where "less is more". Some guys think that throwing thousands of dollars around the club is the way to get both noticed and laid. Unfortunately all it does is get you noticed AND pegged as an easy mark.

The problem is that you have to have a fairly constant stream of money flowing for the girls to stick around..I have had  a good evening when a girl tells me that a lap dance is $20.. I give her $20 and ask her to sit with me for awhile.. take a break and forget the dance.. They like that..  but after a while. They say something like.. I gotta go .. I'll be right back.. then you never see them again..  When I go to Myrtle Beach golfing I am there for a week.. One set of my buddies comes in on a Thursday while the other set leaves on Tuesday.. so I am there by myself. Both groups of guys think that going to a club is kind of cheesy (as one of them called it..??) so when I am on my own, rather than sit in the Condo by myself... I go to the club about 5 PM and stay until closing.. That costs some dollars.. too many of them.. I have thought how great some of my trips would have been if I had simply set up a few hours with a provider.. at my condo..

I tell you, the strip clubs never did anything for me.  Even when I was a college boy, I never liked that scene: Vulgar, sleazy, and depressing.  The next time you're in one of those places, just look around you: you're with the burnouts, the pervs, the hustlers & dealers.  The main attraction = cheap tattooed strippers, most of them I wouldn't fuck for free.  But I live in Cow Country, perhaps the strip clubs in bigger markets are nicer.  

However, I might have to go back after a session with my ATF and try that little trick a few of you were talking about.

The last time I was in strip club was a few years ago.  I had an appt with my ATF that evening & took off work early.  I had an hour to kill & was looking for something to do.  I drive past a strip club--a friend had said this place was the nicest SC in the metro.
