I would more worry that my partner cheats on me with a coworker or girl he meets at a bar.

Strippers are professionals ahhahah

They're drug addicts and prostitutes. 1/1000 is a decent person.

That is my observation as well. Coworkers spend a significant amount of time together. It is human nature to feel a closeness if there is even a sliver of compatibility... its up to the person to keep things in check. The majority of the guys that go to a strip club know that all that is offered is a fantasy.

Yes... I will say that cheating/sex or whatever does occur in strip clubs as well. But I too would see more of a chance in a work place.

Some are..... yes...

But addicts and prostitution exist from people of all walks of life... not just strippers. You only have to dig a little to find nurses, retail workers, models, house wives, students etc.. doing the same.

Some strippers Ive known rarely even drink... they are just pulling a paycheck just like everyone else. They are good people working a unconventional job that is shunned by the wider society.

To say that only 1/1000th is a decent person is the type of remark that I usually hear from a person who hasn't demonstrated any better in their own lives.

Glad to see those 2 you know personally make up the entire population of strippers.

Sorry, anyone who is a stripper chose wrong in life and are almost certainly drug addicts and have sex for drugs on the side.

Sure there's the occasional "decent" one, but really how decent are you if you're a stripper?

Right......

The first one had a young daughter to support and was putting herself through university and the second one paid off her Morgage in 4 years as well as studying.

Now they hated it obvious but the first did it to give her daughter the best things possible and the second so she wouldn't struggle later on in life.

They don't do drugs and wasn't sleeping around , your generalisations are bollox mate and you really need to stop watching the television if you think they are all bad or no good etc etc.

Just that you don't approve of them I'm sure they won't lose any sleep over that mate

It's just two stories.

Let's face it, you go into a strip club and 99% of them are going to be crack whores looking to get some coke after the show.

Sure, you get the decent person here and there... but let's face it.... majority of the population aren't going to be doing that lifestyle. Defend it all you want, majority aren't going to be upstanding citizens.

You seem to know enough the population of strippers to make such generalizations.

As I said, people who make such statements usually are reflecting on their own shortcomings.



Neither of us have claimed to know the whole population of strippers but you seem to know the population to have made such generalizations. It only takes a small sample to show that generalizations are built on shaky logic.



and Yes.... I do know many.. most are in my circle of close friends. Some have problems.. some do not. No different than any other job.

Or it's an easy way to make money and lots of it

I've known or known of a few that have done it at weekends that work in an office during the week.

I don't know which clubs you frequent mate but most especially here in London are " high class " as they advertise and aimed at the super rich and not the seedy little men that the clubs i suspect your picturing.
