We do not get paid a salary. We make tips alone, and also have stage fees, and have to tip our bartenders, djs, and bouncers. It is not ok for you to touch a stripper, especially while she is on stage, or giving you a private dance. We will not go home with you, and we will not give you ‘special treatment’ in private dances. (Well, the majority of us won’t. There are those few nasty hoes…) Also, if you don’t have the money to tip the girls, if you haven’t already been there for at least a half hour, and are trying to sober up, then get the fuck out of the club. In fact, don’t even walk in the door. We aren’t there for your entertainment. We have bills to pay.</description><title>Strippers are not there for your entertainment.</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @imstillalady)</generator><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>I've been grumpy recently guys.

so tonight, we (me, ellie, my dad, my dad’s friend from...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l6gm7wq09p1qzxrs2o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://bwintz.tumblr.com/post/887527146/so-tonight-we-me-ellie-my-dad-my-dads-friend"&gt;bwintz&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so tonight, we (me, ellie, my dad, my dad’s friend from the navy, and his wife) were sitting out on the deck, talking, drinking, whatever. none of that is really important, just know that we were outside in full view of the front door around eight tonight.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so the doorbell rings, and my first thought is that it’s my brother coming to say hi or grab a toy he forgot last time he was here or something. my dad gets up from the table and goes to answer the door, and when i hear the voice come from whoever—or whatever—it is that was ringing our doorbell, i realize that i was sadly mistaken.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i turn to ellie, “girl scout?” i say. it sounded like a small child, most likely a girl. we’re all looking at my dad, trying to find any hints in his mannerisms or body language, getting nothing because we weren’t really trying because we only half cared about who was at our house this late at night.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;my dad went out of view for a few seconds, and came back laughing with some container in his hand. as he’s walking back up to the table he says to ellie, “remember that stripper that borrowed our phone? she brought us cookies!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;cue the “what the actual &lt;em&gt;fuck&lt;/em&gt;?” from the table. well, no one actually said that, but his statement did warrant an explanation. he tossed the cookies onto the table and confirmed that yes, she is a stripper, because her note* smells like cheap vanilla body spray so of course she is.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;apparently, a woman in a very revealing outfit with a “rash on her chin from her boobs rubbing up on it all the time” came to our house the other day, claiming that she’s “not crazy” but needed to use the phone because her boyfriend works right down the street at montclair mart and she wanted to visit him but didn’t know if he’d get in trouble if she did so she wanted to call him first to make sure it was okay.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;my dad let her use the home phone, a favor she was truly grateful for and still “not crazy,” and she was on her way. ellie, being skeptical of the whole thing, googled the phone number stripper girl had called and found that it was in fact the number of montclair mart.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;so now, here we are, six chocolate almond horn cookies richer and still confused as to what the stripper’s real profession is.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;*the note says “from the crazy blond chick you let use your phone—thank you!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt; D’awww…. That’s so sweet. &lt;3&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-coming from a crazy blond stripper chick- XD&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962750746</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962750746</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 09:59:39 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Chase My Rabbit: Rant Begins...</title><description>&lt;a href="http://chasemyrabbit.tumblr.com/post/899257580"&gt;Chase My Rabbit: Rant Begins...&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I love that we have so many plans for our lives, we want to do so much yet don’t even get half of it done when it comes to the end. We either don’t have the means ($$) to get where we want to be or we’re just too damn lazy so we rather marry some rich old man and wait till he dies to get the means. While we have a sexy boy on the side (Ana Nicole Smith RIP, she truly takes the cake for that). However, there aren’t quite enough rich old men with heart problems to satisfy the growing population of ladies in the world are there now? So then some become strippers… which apparently now is completely acceptable in the 21st Century society (Guess we saw the light?). However, the only reason they become strippers is to meet one of those few men with large digits in their bank account, but most fail and just get stuck with an STD. Oh Well. As long as it’s not me what do I care? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anywho, I want to get a &lt;strong&gt;bunny&lt;/strong&gt; and name it Sparta but I just can’t stand the strong smell of their urine so I’ll just skip out on the pet thing for now. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt; I’m sorry. Where’d you get &lt;em&gt;your &lt;/em&gt;information? And why’d you feel the need to trash talk strippers?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is it because we most likely make more money than you do?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Why in the HELL would you think that all strippers are at the club so they can meet some old rich guy? I know married strippers. We’re there because we can’t get any other job, and it’s not bad pay anyway. Even with a masters degree, in Portland, you’re lucky if you can get a job flipping fucking burgers. Strippers have the easiest job to get into, and if you don’t like the place you’re at, you can easily go somewhere else.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And STDs? Why? Because we’re whores? Because we give blowjobs in lap dance booths? People like you are the reason I started this blog. Strippers are NOT prostitutes. And our worlds do NOT revolve around money. We’re average people. Just like yourself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just because you aren’t pleased with the way your life has turned out, doesn’t mean trash talking strippers is going to make it better. How ‘bout you actually go make some changes to your life, and maybe you won’t be so miserable. :/&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962728750</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962728750</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 09:52:26 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Dr. Clear Heels: Strip Club Secrets</title><description>&lt;a href="http://roxyscores.tumblr.com/post/903848742/strip-club-secrets"&gt;Dr. Clear Heels: Strip Club Secrets&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1) Don’t joke around about giving us a dollar when it’s time to tip. And don’t say “Hahahaha, how about you tip me?” We hear that a million times a night and it’s not funny.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;2) Don’t ask me my real name or background.

&lt;p&gt;Yes, I am a stripper, and I am very familiar with such poles, but this is horrible. Yes, Miley herself is old enough to be a stripper. And yes, stripping is actually quite fun. But even as a stripper, I am so riddiculously appaled by this. And people wonder why today&amp;#8217;s youth is so over-sexed. Maybe you should stop blaming the kids and take a look at their role models. If I were a parent, after seeing this, I would no longer allow my kid to even watch &amp;#8221;Hannah Montanna&amp;#8221;, and I would probably write Disney lenghty letter asking them how they can sponsor something like this. I&amp;#8217;m surprised that she didn&amp;#8217;t loose her contract for this. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962540578</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962540578</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 08:50:54 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Secret woman deposed in Tamara Greene case</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://news.kingkwame.com/post/953347607/secret-woman-deposed-in-tamara-greene-case"&gt;kingkwame&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Looks like another one of many surprises (witnesses?) in the case of Kwame stopping the case of Tamara Greene (Strawberry, the stripper who was found dead after Kwame’s famed Manoogian party, which he claims never happened). As they say… Shit is goin’ down.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.mlive.com/news/detroit/index.ssf/2010/08/deposition_set_for_unnamed_wom_1.html"&gt;Story on MLive.com&amp;#160;»&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Deposition set for unnamed woman in Tamara ‘Strawberry’ Greene suit&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Published: Saturday, August 14, 2010, 1:00 PM&lt;br/&gt;Updated: Saturday, August 14, 2010, 1:40 PM&lt;br/&gt;The Associated Press&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;An attorney representing the family of a slain Detroit stripper will depose an unnamed woman as part of a civil lawsuit against the city and ex-Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The Detroit News reports the woman is to testify Saturday. Her identity has been sealed. Her testimony also will be sealed in federal court in Detroit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt; This is really sad. It&amp;#8217;s also the reason why when you ask a stipper, &amp;#8216;hey, we&amp;#8217;re having an after party, wanna go with?&amp;#8217; that we don&amp;#8217;t go. It&amp;#8217;s dangerous. You don&amp;#8217;t know who&amp;#8217;s going to be there, or not. You don&amp;#8217;t know what&amp;#8217;s going to happen. In this case, poor Stawberry ended up dead.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962517179</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962517179</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 08:43:16 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>edibletoiletpaper:

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://ohnomysweet.tumblr.com/post/958605880/fuck-yeah-gender-studies-fuck-no-numbersandlife"&gt;ohnomysweet&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Aaaargh! I HATE numbersandlife. Her blog is like a slut-shaming festival. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;”&lt;span&gt;I also don’t think that acting in a suggestive manner and then getting raped gives you the right to demand for sympathy. You acted that way, a male subject will only react instinctively. Basically stay out of trouble”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Let’s think for a moment about this shall we?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A stripper, who, arguably, rents out her body for the sexual enjoyment of the club’s patrons is raped.  By your logic because she made herself “available” sexually she is in no position to complain about her assault.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But where’s the logic in that?  This woman is not selling sex, and even if she was selling sex it does not mean that she is &lt;em&gt;giving&lt;/em&gt; sex in the same way that someone who sells candy is not &lt;em&gt;giving&lt;/em&gt; candy.  Would you say that someone who sells candy is in no position to cry foul when his or her candy is stolen?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A stripper, or a sex worker, or anyone who dresses “provocatively” is not giving their body away.  They are not saying “I’m an in various stages of undress, do what you want with me.”   Even if a woman dresses or behaves in a way that deliberately expresses her intentions are to engage in sex it does not mean that she does not have a right to pick and choose who it is she wants sex from.  It does not mean that the rights to her body, which &lt;em&gt;everyone&lt;/em&gt; has, are nullified because she let’s her bra strap show or is wearing nothing at all.  It &lt;em&gt;also&lt;/em&gt; does not mean that someone who’s job it is to simulate or perform the act of sex wants sex at all times, from anyone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While I’m at it, let me add that a woman who is in a relationship with a man has no sexual obligation to him whatsoever.  A woman who sells her sex to someone a thousand times over has no sexual obligation to him &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;what so ever&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.  A woman who wears a half shirt that says “SLUT”, a micro-skirt, platform heels and a fucking bejewelled vagina has no sexual obligation to perform the actions which her attire suggests she performs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To suggest the contrary to anything that I have stated is the worst kind of sexism I could possibly imagine.  You are implying that it is possible for women to dehumanize themselves because of an action or type of clothing.  That not only they deserve one of the worst possible violations of bodily right but that the outcome of a woman partaking in a certain activity or dressing a particular way &lt;em&gt;should be rape&lt;/em&gt;.  You are a vile, ignorant, sorry excuse for a human being.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt; I am just a tad offended by this post. While yes, I agree with EVERYTHING you stated about the subject of the post, but, I felt a violent overwhelming need to point out that &lt;strong&gt;strippers do not sell sex.&lt;/strong&gt;We sell the ideals of sex, but a guy ask to fuck me, and I’ll laugh at him. A guy ask for a blow job and I’ll give him a soul crushing glare. Touch me? And I’ll kick you with my 10 inch solid platform boots. No shit, I’ve litterally fractured a guys hand for that before. That is actually one of my fondest memories of dancing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I completely understand the point you were making, and again, I agree, but it sounded as if you were making it look like strippers are prostitutes. So let me put it like this. Strippers are &lt;em&gt;dancers&lt;/em&gt;. Not prostitutes. That’s the difference. Dancers, again, sell the ideal of sex, not the act itself. Prostitutes sell sex. And you may not have meant it like that, but I just wanted it to be clearly spelled out as to the difference.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They didn’t say strippers sell sex:&lt;br/&gt;”&lt;span&gt;But where’s the logic in that?  This woman is not selling sex, and even if she was selling sex it does not mean that she is &lt;em&gt;giving&lt;/em&gt; sex in the same way that someone who sells candy is not &lt;em&gt;giving&lt;/em&gt; candy.  Would you say that someone who sells candy is in no position to cry foul when his or her candy is stolen?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A stripper, or a sex worker, or anyone who dresses “provocatively” is not giving their body away.  They are not saying “I’m an in various stages of undress, do what you want with me.” “&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt; I understand that, but to the uneducated, it could be misconstrued.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“A stripper, who, arguably, rents out her body for the sexual enjoyment of the club’s patrons is raped.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This, can be misinterpreted has selling her body. Not ‘renting out’ in the manner of, “I’m on stage, naked, being sexy for you.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It &lt;em&gt;also&lt;/em&gt; does not mean that someone who’s job it is to simulate or perform the act of sex wants sex at all times, from anyone.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This, while yes “simulating” is what we do, but throughout the whole thing, they did not make mention of the difference in prostitution and stripping. While this has nothing to do with what they were talking about, this is the entire subject of my blog. To educate the general public that strippers are not prostitutes. Therefore, I just wanted to point that out. The fact that they made mention in this manner, and didn’t make mention of the word ‘prostitute’ at all, is irk-some for me.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962329274</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962329274</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 07:41:02 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Why should women visit a strip club?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;If you’re bisexual/pansexual, why wouldn’t you go?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bachellorette parties are actually waaaaay fun at the tittie bar. :3 There’s booze, beautiful women, you know the shpeel. You can guy bash. Etc., etc… It just an all around fun environment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ALSO, I’d say the main reason I’ve seen girls come in, is to go with their significant other, to get all worked up, and then go have sex afterwards. It’s better than porn. ;3&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, just because you’re a woman, doesn’t mean you don’t have to tip. This is my job. I don’t come into say starbucks, and expect a free drink. Tips are appreciated, and don’t sit at the rack unless you’re tipping.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962295644</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962295644</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 07:29:27 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>How does being a stripper effect your social/love life?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;This…. Yeah. &gt;.&gt;” -avoid, avoid, avoid-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well, it’s definitely an very dominate part of the job. I’ll explain to you my personal experience.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For the most part, it doesn’t really. But… There will be a month… say every six months that it just really fucks with me. For one, my social life… HA. I don’t HAVE a social life. All the people I would normally hang out with, are busy or sleeping during the time that I have off. I hang out with my neighbor and best friend, and roommates, and my animals. As far as my love life, when I have the ‘stripper crisis’, I won’t want to have sex at all, or try to be sexy, or make you breakfast, or pretty much anything. I need to be babied, I need you to take over my chores… It’s pretty much a massive depression. Last time, I couldn’t even kiss my boyfriend at the time without being incredibly uncomfortable. It takes a very patient, and loving man to have a successful relationship with a stripper.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Actually, my leave of absence was because of one of these ‘stripper crisis’s.)&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962282678</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962282678</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 07:24:54 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Favorite songs to dance to?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Rammstein:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&gt;.&gt;” That’s just some…. My DJ plays some songs that I really like, that I don’t even know who they’re by. You know… Random industrial musics.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But you come to see me, and two things you’re sure to hear me dance to are CombiChrist and Rammstein. :3&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;EDIT: and obviously…. I don’t really dance to ‘normal’ stripper songs. Then again, I have a mohawk. I like being different.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962259891</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962259891</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 07:16:00 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Wherrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrre are youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu??????????</title><description>&lt;p&gt;-________-” Sorry. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I had one of those months that just fucked with your head, and didn’t want to think about being a stripper.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BUT, I’m back in full swing now. Prepare for a onslaught of feminism. ^^&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962206477</link><guid>http://imstillalady.tumblr.com/post/962206477</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Aug 2010 06:59:04 -0400</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
