Question

How do I deal with people judging me because I'm a stripper?

Community Answer

Judging comes with anything. If you love what you are doing, it shouldn't matter what others think. Make money, and let people talk.

Question

Does a stripper have to do anything with a guy?

Community Answer

Not at all. It also depends what sort of club you are working at. If you are working at a no contact club, he can't even touch you. If you are working at a club where contact is allowed, he can touch you, but you can also have boundaries.

Depending on where you live, you need to be over 18 years old, or whatever is considered to be legal adult. Some places will prefer having girls who are 20 years old or older (or above the legal drinking age).

Question

At the end of my dance, do I have to be completely nude or can I wear a thong and showy bra?

Community Answer

It can actually be illegal to be completely naked. (Depending on where you live, of course.) Ask the house-mom/manager about the regulations on skin shown. Always start with more clothing than is necessary so you can work your way down to the bare minimum.

Question

Can a stripper have hard sex with a client?

Community Answer

Sex and prostitution are forbidden in most strip clubs. If the two decided they wanted to meet elsewhere on their own time, it's up to them.

What if I have a boyfriend? Can I still become a stripper?

Of course! Being a stripper is just a job; you're not getting into relationships with the clients. Just make sure your boyfriend is comfortable with you being a stripper.

Can I be a stripper even if I'm a bit overweight?

Absolutely. No single body type is desired by all men. You could visit the clubs you are interested in applying for and get an idea for what type of girl they are looking to hire, before you decide to apply there.

Question

Is sixteen to young to be a stripper?

Community Answer

Yes. You have to be at least 18 for most clubs, some require 21 (legal drinking age). Any place that hires a 16 year old is sketchy and you should not be working there because it's illegal.
