We can only speculate where and when the stripping business was “birthed.” It might have started simultaneously throughout the world. It’s a pretty simple idea. Beautiful women dance, take off their cloths, sell you a fantasy and eager men pay to be part of the extraordinary experience.
Stripping has been around for years, but has been a subcultural tradition that has thrived in the shadows. Today, stripping has made it’s way to the forefront. Movies and the heavy Dirty South influence in Hip Hop has made stripping part of today’s popular culture in many ways. Some people love it and some people are not so fond of this movement. With no censorship on the internet videos such as Nelly’s “Tip Drill” and Jeremih’s new release “Go To The Mo” seem to further push the limits. Things that were confined to the dark are definitely in the light. So what’s the big fuss about strippers and strip clubs? Here are a several things to think about fellas.(I’m speaking on behalf of the ladies who are not big on the strip club today.) But before I get to that I just wanted to share how Bernie Mac thought the stripping business was started. (He was a bona fide legend…for real!)
“The stripping business started out in Africa… a long time ago… long, long, long time ago. These white men went to Africa. They saw these beautiful black women walking around, singing, dancing, working and living… in the NUDE … BUCKET NAKEDS!!! You can see their public hairs. These white men went to seek out these beautiful black women watching them perform in the nude … TITTIES… @$$ for free! They got an idea to do the same thing with white women. They tried to get white women to move and dance in the nude like those black women. There was no shame in those beautiful black women being BUCKET NAKED! But to no avail the white men failed. Them white bitches looked them white men dead in the eye and said the most beautiful thing, “Fu@k that … pay me!” (This quote was not to be used to offend white women. There are awesome white strippers.)
R.I.P. Bernie Mac
1. MONEY Makes The World Turn … If you are not the infamous BMF clique or a billionaire save your money bro. It’s a recession! Do you know how many kids you could have fed from New Orleans or some random city in Central America? It ain’t tricking if you got it says Lil Wayne, but he wears zebra skinned tights so I am not really checking for Weezy to give me sound financial advice. I guess what I am saying is, make sure you have your priorities straight before you go wasting your money. (You better not have over due child support buddy!) Even Mr. Ray Lavendar weighed in on the topic saying the following:
“People go to the strip club to see who has the most money. Dudes in there are being egotistical. People just want to see who got the biggest duffle bag. You throw all your money and then you go to the waffle house? I don’t get it for the life of me. I just don’t understand how a grown ass man can throw up 40,000 in one night and leave alone just to head to the Waffle House.” – Ray Lavendar
2. Drama … The strip club can be a lot of fun. You may even go with your significant other if that’s what your into. However, sometimes certain things are just unnecessary drama waiting to happen. If you go to the strip club everyday there is a good chance you might develop a relationship with a dancer … or maybe not. The issue is it may make your lady at home, who is not into the strip club, a little uneasy. This may create insecurities which may manifest into negative behavior. Bachelor parties and birthday celebrations are cool, but if you’re a regular and you have a girlfriend, why are you really there? If you want to keep your house drama-free, stay away from the following places: strip clubs & ex-girlfriends’ houses.
3. Body of Work … You have to be equipped to work. There is no way around it. Strippers on the urban scene seem to have the most extra-ordinary bodies. They almost look like female superheroes. Butt injections, breast implants and other cosmetic surgeries are all part of the game. The problem is: do men really expect their woman to look like these women on the pole? Is it fair to compare your little lady to the twerking queen of the night with a body that would make Nikki Minaj jealous? I might venture to say that’s way too much pressure. That’s like expecting a man to look like Denzel Washington and be equipped like Mr. Marcus.
4. Just A Fantasy … The strip club is real. The women at the strip club are real. Everything is real, but at the same time it is a fantasy for you to enjoy (most of the time). Like I was saying earlier, it is unfair to expect your woman to look like a stripper. This fantasy in which you enjoy should be just that. When you want that fantasy to become a reality, it becomes an issue.
5. Respect the Hustle & Hustler … Please! Please! Please! Respect the strippers hustle. This is a game they play everyday. They are there to make you feel like they love you and can’t wait to see you again. Ask T-Pain about falling in love with a stripper … it can be a tricky business. If her job is to sell a fantasy, guess what – it’s a fantasy! So fellas, please make sure you keep that in mind when your ego starts to trip and you’re throwing money fast like Big Meech.
This article was just to give a different side of the “fantastic” world of stripping. Don’t let a fantasy ruin your reality.
The strip club can be a fun place to visit, but if you’re in a relationship it’s important to know the risks. Many relationships have been tested and even ruined because of an unexpected trip to the strip club – so don’t let that happen to yours! Here are five reasons why you should beware of the strip club if you’re in a relationship.
It doesn’t matter how strong your bond with your partner is – one night at the strip club could spell disaster for your relationship. The temptation of the free-flowing alcohol and scantily clad women or men has proven too much for many couples who thought their love was unbreakable. Don’t let yourself become another statistic; think twice before going anywhere near a strip club when you’re in a committed relationship.
The atmosphere of a strip club can also put extra strain on any existing issues between a couple. From feelings of insecurity after seeing someone else getting attention from attractive people, to arguments about spending too much money on drinks or lap dances – these problems can all spiral out of control very quickly if not addressed early on. If your relationship isn’t 100% solid then there’s no reason to take the risk by visiting a strip club together – or worse, alone!
Potential Negative Effects
Relationships require trust and respect, but the strip club can pose a threat to that. Being in close proximity to scantily clad women or men is enough for many people’s partners to become uncomfortable and suspicious. Not only can this lead to arguments and fights, it could also be damaging to both participants in the relationship over time.
The environment of a typical strip club may not seem very appealing either. With loud music, dark lighting, and alcohol being served, many relationships might find themselves straying away from their usual values. This could cause tension between couples who would typically have disagreements on such matters anyway.
Perhaps one of the most troubling aspects of going to a strip club while in a committed relationship is when money becomes involved. Spending large sums of cash at these establishments can put a strain on any budget and create suspicion with even the closest partners. It’s important for couples to discuss their spending habits honestly so they don’t end up causing problems within their relationship due to financial difficulties or mistrust brought about by visits to the strip club.
Alternatives To Consider
Instead of going to a strip club, couples should look into other activities they can do together that will bring them closer and keep their relationship healthy. Going out for dinner or drinks at a nice restaurant is always an enjoyable way to spend time with your loved one. Taking a walk through the park or even just staying in and snuggling up for a movie night are also great alternatives.
Another wonderful way to show your partner how much you care about them is by scheduling a romantic getaway for two. Whether it’s camping under the stars, taking a trip to the beach, or indulging in some spa treatments, these kinds of trips provide plenty of quality time away from the hustle and bustle of regular life. It’s important to have special times like this where couples can reconnect without distractions and focus on each other.
By making healthier choices together and spending quality time apart from everyday stressors, partners will be able to build trust between themselves. This kind of bond fosters compassion and understanding which are essential components of any successful relationship. Making sure both parties feel valued and appreciated is key when it comes to keeping love alive; something that no amount of money spent at a strip club could ever replace.
Conclusion
In conclusion, it’s important to consider the potential negative effects that going to a strip club can have on your relationship. While there may be some people who are able to make their relationships work after visiting one of these establishments, many don’t realize how easy it is for things to go wrong. Even if you feel like you’re just having fun with friends and not doing anything bad, your partner might think differently about the situation. That’s why it’s important to weigh all of your options before making any decisions and take into account what could potentially happen if things do get out of hand.
Instead of choosing this route, there are other activities that couples can engage in together without risking their bond or trust. Going out for dinner or drinks at a bar is always an option, as well as renting movies and relaxing at home. Doing something creative such as painting or attending a class together is also a great way to spend quality time with each other while still having fun. You could even plan a romantic weekend away where you can really focus on reconnecting with each other and strengthening the connection between you two.
At the end of the day, only you know what’s best for both you and your partner when it comes to spending time together outside of the house. However, considering all of the potential problems associated with going to strip clubs should give anyone pause before taking that step forward in their relationship journey.
