Wonder why we gotta lie?

[Becket]

I know the answer to this before I ask. It's all a game. Just get as much cash out of the guy then move on to the next one.

 

But Jeez was it hot!!!

 

I was in Atlanta recently and stopped by Swinging Richards. I had no expectations. My last few visits had been disappointing. This time, though, I had a blast. They had so many new dancers. ( I tend to gravitate towards the newer guys. They haven't become so cynical yet.) It wasn't real crowded so I got a lot of attention. I had a few lap dances with the newer guys and then went to get a drink. And then.......there he was.

 

Big, beautiful, blonde. Lots of muscles. A little pudge here and there. But generally gorgeous. I had seen "Bob" about a year before dancing there and had a great time with him in the VIP area. Then he just disappeared. It seems he had been serving some time. I didn't know if he would ever return to SR to dance. Coincidentally I was there on his first night back. I literally almost jizzed in my pants. Guys like him are my absolute fantasy. The college jock look. The guy who usually wouldn't give me a second look. And there he was, standing next to me at the bar. Talk about a dream come true.

 

Eventually we arranged for a little "quality time" in the back room. He was fantastic, and did everything we can get away with in that environment. Even the music was wonderful; they were playing all my favorite tunes. I got my courage up and asked him if he ever "played out of school." (Sometimes the dancers will come to your hotel room after work for a little "one on one.") And I was amazed. He said he would. We arranged for a time later and I tipped him generously. He said he had to go check on something and would be right back.

 

And.....surprise......he never returned. After waiting........and waiting...........I finally walked out into the main room and saw him chatting up the next guy. He wouldn't even acknowledge me.

 

I had a fantastic time with him. As I think about it now I'm still smiling. But I'm a big boy. You can tell me, "NO, I'm not interested in anything further." Why do we need to lie? Just to get a extra $20 or a larger tip? And the answer to that is a big, YES. OF COURSE. This is a strip club, dummy!!!

 

So I'm left with a wonderful memory and the hope that he'll be there the next time I am visiting SR in Atlanta. And I am reminded, ONCE AGAIN, that all of the escort/client relationship arena that we who post here so passionately discuss, is......and forever will be.........99 times out of 100...........just a JOB for the escort and a FANTASY for the client.

 

But hell yea, I'm gonna do it again. Cheers.

Becket--

Thanks for sharing your experience--been THERE, been done by......

Not much to add except to say that you have a healthy attitude to the reality of the strip bars/clubs and the dancers who perform there. Wish I were able to say the same )

Oh hell, we've all been there. Just like you and Samai, happened to me just the other night at the BW. A dancer who I had flirted with before from Johnny's approached me, and after buying him a drink he reached down and pulled about 40 dollars in singles out of my hand said the lap dance is free, and you can do anything you want back there. Long story short, I tried three times to get him to go back, and like you Becket, he just ignored me...Hey it happens, I got played. You just have to walk away since it is all part of the game, but I'm in the BW all the time, and 'pay-backs-are-a-bitch.....does he really think I will forget about what happened...LOL

Yes i don't like being taken advantage of either. But sometimes it does work out and when it does is can be very good.

[corndog]

At Campus in Montreal, I've several times had an opposite experience. Sometimes, I just want to hang out there, chat with people (customers & dancers), and relax. On several of these occasions, I've had a dancer sit down next to me and chat for a LONG time. I usually mention to them early on that I'm not up for a dance, and that sends some of them away, but some stick around just for friendly conversation.

 

So, 3 or 4 times, I've asked the guys if they'll be working tomorrow night, and if they say yes, I hand them $40, thank them for being so friendly, and tell them that I'd like a couple of dances tomorrow. Needless to say, they're always dumbfounded. But, in every case, they've sought me out the next night and provided the dances they owed me (and often a lot more).

 

I know that one of these days that will backfire, but so far, I've had great results. It's gratifying to me know that I've let them know that it's not all about their penis... it's about their friendliness and personality, too. I'm sure that for some people it IS all about the penis, but for me, if I establish a friendly connection, the fun in the back is ever so much hotter.

I couldn't agree more corndog, I have always had the same experience at Campus. On numerous occasions dancers will just want to hang out and not really expect too much more from me. It gives me satisfaction to let them know, not everything is about the penis. I like the idea of giving them money in advance, it's a nice touch. AND to be clear, most of the dancers at the BW and at SR have conducted themselves professionally. This was actually the first time that someone took money from my hand and then played me like that. No matter....these things tend to work themselves out

When I've talked to a dancer about meeting up later, it's rarely for that same night. Possibly he misunderstood? I rarely hang out with one boy for all night - they do have to make a living there.

Oft reminded of Bob Seger's song "Main Street" when I go into male strip clubs. His lyrics, with some adaptations:

 

 

I remember standing on the corner at midnight

Trying to get my courage up

There was this long lovely dancer in a little club downtown

I loved to watch him do his stuff

Through the long lonely nights he filled my sleep

His body softly swaying to that smoky beat

Down on Mainstreet

 

In the pool halls, the hustlers and the losers

I used to watch 'em through the glass

Well I'd stand outside at closing time

Just to watch him walk on past

Unlike all the other bois, he looked so young and sweet

As he made her way alone down that empty street

Down on Mainstreet

 

And sometimes even now, when I'm feeling lonely and beat

I drift back in time and I find my feet

Down on Mainstreet

Down on Mainstreet

Love the song, love the adaptations. What haunting memories....

When this song was popular, I don't think I ever paid attention to any of the lyrics except the chorus back then. Either that or I'd forgotten the subject matter over the years.
