I am not having a problem (cross my fingers) but a friend of mine asked me for my thoughts on the subject...It got me to thinking why not get others ideas as well....
What really happens at these places. Why do men feel women should just accept this as normal man behavior....Even on the occasion....
Men, why do you go to them, is it a sexual thing?
There are other places a guy can go to relax with his buddies...I just don't get it...
Thoughts???
I think strip clubs are just fine. If someone want to indulge in a harmless fantasy who I am to judge? Since both parties are there of their own free will, and the women get well remunerates I fully disagree that it is in any way insulting and degrading. I feel exactly the same was about prostitution. I have been a musician for many years and have often played in the lounge of strip clubs and hence have met lots of strippers. They just like anybody else.
Woman, by the way, have a whole series of fantasies which are not always shared by men to the same degree, not the least of which are:
1) the idealized romanticized perfect life long relationship
2) greater emphasis on makeup, and hair, and finger nails, and perfume and clothing
I am not denigrating female or male fantasies or suggesting any kind of fantasy is better or worse than any other.
