If I had a conversation like that with my girlfriend I would be really annoyed. Your diatribe was really uncalled for. He has a right to ask you about entertainment options without being accused of being an ax murderer...

First, he asked you if you want to go to a strip club with him.

You said : No way, I don't want to go to a place where men are stripping and shoving their bits in my face! In other words, you are planting the seed for what is to come later. You know very well what kind of strip club he's talking about, and you're trying to act naive.

He then clarified that he meant women strippers, not men.

You then reiterated that you're not interested. You even said that you don't want to be with a guy who goes to strip clubs (even though you dated one before). He said ok fine, no problem.

Then you paint a picture of yourself as the cool, reasonable girlfriend by suddenly suggesting that you'll go with him, but...just as long as he goes with you to a male strip club. After all (you say), it's only fair, right?

And that was your plan all along. Act naive, shame him, then play the benevolent girlfriend and get what you want (bits in your face)

So, to recap : You don't like male strip clubs, but you'll go with him to a female one if only he'll go with you to a male one, which you don't like.

The next step will be to go to a male strip club with your girlfriends, and when he objects, you'll play the "but you can go to female ones with your friends now, it's ok" card.



Is that the feedback that you wanted to hear, cupcake?
You missed the entire point of her suggesting a male club. He asked why she didn't want to go. She attempted to illustrate how he would feel if the shoe were on the other foot, to SHOW him how such a request, and its implications, felt. This was her answer to HIM AKING why (directly).

Your argument started out entirely wrong and only got weaker from there.

But anyway, welcome to the forum, cupcake.
