Strippers Shouldn't Lower Themselves

Just worked this past Saturday. I made $800 in five hours. I'm not shallow - I know money can't buy happiness, but it sure feels great to be able to support yourself.

That being said, I find that I am encountering more men at work who seem baffled that I am in this profession. Yes, I am intelligent and college-educated. Still, a girl's gotta make a living, and my day job doesn't pay nearly enough. "You're above all this," they often say. But I don't believe that there is anything wrong with what I do. I'm a dancer, not a prostitute. Unlike many of my co-workers, I do not allow men to touch me, nor do I offer "extras."

Please don't misunderstand me. There is nothing wrong with prostitution. However, a strip club is not the place for a prostitute. By offering sexual services for money, certain strippers make it all the more difficult for clean, honest dancers who aren't whores.

Here's an interesting story:

This past Saturday, a customer approached me and asked for a room. He then asked what kind of contact I allowed. "I won't lie," I replied. "I don't allow touching and I'm not a prostitute. If that's what you're looking for, I won't waste your time."

The man hesitated. I expected him to walk away. Instead, he told me that he respected my standards and spent over $1,100 on a champagne room.

See? Nice, honest girls can finish first.
