First of all the build should have a certain quality thats says - "learned to build yesterday"

snip..

Finally there should be a Dancer/Escort to Customer ratio of at least 5 to 1. Becuase that also makes some sort of warped sense, for there to be a horde of bored stripper/hookers ready to decend on the first hapless customer that walks through the door.



lol, I guess greed is not a great decorator.

I agree, vaudeville and burlesque would be great in a Baron Mauncheson look theatre. I'd go.

Maybe voice will give us stand up comedy? I would love that too.

Obviously they are popular and harmless adult distractions but what do you look for when you go to one?


A TP

I look for a place that's fun to be in (both for the guests and the people working there).

Atmosphere is everything. You go to a place the 1st time to see what it's like. You go back again if it makes you feel good.

I think it also helps to have a wide selection of strippers/dancers. One thing which you can be sure of is that customers tastes will vary. Not everyone wants to see 6' 6" Barbie clones (thank goodness).

any idea that requires any sort of intellectual thought .. is doomed.

Such a show would appeal to the more intellectual audiences. The problem is there probably aren't enough of the conneseur type patrons left to make such a club a paying proposition in SL. That is the main reason those sorts of clubs vanished in RL in favor of the Gynocological exams With Musical Accompaniment that are popular today. In order for anything to have Mass Appeal it MUST Play down to the Lowest denominator in the target Audience.
Fred Silverman, the man responsible for "Threes company" and many other top rated TV Sit-Coms said it best when he said, "The key to a successful Adult Comedy is to gear the humor to the mental level of an 8 year old".

Yeah - hence my club description earlier .. lol

Basically the lowest common denominator wants Cartoon Internet Porn that is as much like a porn site as possible, and only trappings of a strip club left.

Hence thats what the clubs are.

Perhaps you could list the clubs you surveyed in coming to your judgement ?

Personally I think the lowest common denominator mentioned doesn't have the L$ to support a regular club habit ;)

the list would be pretty long. And its bad policy to name clubs Ive visited/worked in, some are even still in biz.

You are probably right - but that would help explain all the moochers who come to the clubs. I mean its a big mystery why people with NO money go to a strip club, isnt it?

I've wondered about that very point myself. I think they fall into several categories:

1)Lost, new or exploring. People who are new to SL and visit the club based off a cursory use of the search function. They see a few nekie dancers (with very high quality skins, clothes and hair), and get all excited by the novelty.

2)The unrequited job seeker. People who have heard that dancing/escorting is a quick way to make "Phat Lewt" and try to talk their newbie skinned form into a job (and are angry/bitter when they are told that they need to be 1 month old and work on their appearance).

3)The savers of fallen women. This kind is less common thankfully. They are noticeable by their attempts to convince dancers that taking their clothes off will cause the downfall of Western civilization and/or will send the aforementioned dancer straight to hell. Usually followed up by an offer to be the dancers friend and help her overcome her problem.

4) The poor voyeur. This kind will watch the show (as financed by others) (they will sometimes attempt to get their piece of the action by tipping $1L or 2$L). Presumably they gain some enjoyment merely from looking, although this seems rather pointless to me as the interaction between customer and dancer is the important thing. My best theory for why they do this is that unlike internet pron sites, what goes on in SL does not leave an internet history that can be tracked by one of those parental internet control programs.


If you've got any more categories it would be fun to list them too :)

Like y'all said earlier, I'd like to see a real strip club, maybe with an honest to goodness theme; Old West/Cowboy burlesque, Moulin Rouge, Las Vegas showgirls, Brazilian Carnivale, heck, how about a Star Wars/Star Trek theme with alien women? Dabo girls, anyone? ANYTHING different from the tacky shit that's out there now.

He tells me that he cant afford new prim eyelashes since tips have been way down lately for some reason.

One thing I like is truth in advertising..

for example:

escort - person who is paid to escort someone else as a date, as arm candy or just company

prositute - someone who has sex (virtual or real for this definition) for money.

I personally appreciate people who can be honest with themselves and not hide behind a 'prettier name,' a hooker is a hooker.


man they all hoes...if she got breasts she a hooker! it's just a matter of findin the right currency before ya slick-mouth ya self right outta a girls drawls! or nice ya self outta of them...

you gotta play these hoes hot and cold...alternate between ya firm side and ya sweet side!
i kbow it's a fine line..that's where skill comes in...make em lov ya or really really really hate ya!


all they are advertisizin is gettin on their backs, why quibble about semantics...you gonna make your brain explode...

wrong head playboy...

and stay away from them kiss pose balls...

you sound like ya justin timberlakin-loookin-for-a-summer-luv wit these hoes!

blow her back out!

Now there's an idea...a real burlesque type show would be neat. Maybe with a Fan Dance......


There's a classy place called Bogart's I found the other day, which may very well have something like that. It was very 40s-50s classy, not 70s-80s sleazy like so many of the other "clubs"*. Seemed genuinely fun, coat-tie/tuxes for the men, nice dresses for the ladies, and place for couples to dance (tango, etc.).

Maybe I watch too many old movies, I don't know, but ... Bogart's genuinely made me happy to find it :)

And no, I don't own it or have any financial interest in it.





*Not that I search th them out, but you can't really miss them when you tp to a store to see what it has and just through the door on the other wall is Big Betty's Bazooms Bar ;)
