Realistically, why not? I mean, strippers aren't hookers-- they aren't giving out sex, they're just taking off their clothes for people. No strings attached. I, for one, and entirely comfortable with the human body, so I don't see anything wrong with strippers and I would have no problem marrying one even if they chose to keep their profession.

Fair enough.
 
i cannot see why not...

The main problem is the environment. It's usually a liquor fueled existence in an environment were most girls have their own drug dealer regularly swing by to resupply them with all sorts of goodies. After all their's is a cash business, and dopers burn through an amazing amount of cash. I never ever knew of any strippers who did not have immediate access to xanex, vicadin, oxy, cocaine and heroin.

I never said you didn't have a right to say so? I have no issue with anyone not wanting to marry a Stripper Goshin. If they don't want to then it's quite simple, just DON'T. What i am saying is no one knows what lead them down that path to begin with and whilst i understand why some wouldn't want to marry one i personally don't feel the need to judge them. I don't know them, they dont affect me, i'm not marrying one. I'm also far from perfect and made mistakes/bad decisions in my life which is why i said "Before you start pointing fingers, make sure your own hands are clean."

It was a general comment. I didn't quote you, it wasn't direct at you so i'm not sure why you felt the need to take it personally.

Sorry, while I did quote you my reply was also intended to be more of a general comment, and not an indicator that I'd taken the remark on a personal basis.
 
FWIW, I was in the "adult business" for many years. This is my observation. No fact was harmed in the production of the following statement.

I never met a stripper with an IQ that wasn't a single digit. OTOH, I've met a number of escorts (I really hate that word hooker) who were very intelligent and very successful. If I were the marrying kind and they were interested in marrying me, I would have been quite happy.

Sex is the most over-rated component of human relations. All kinds of judgements and sacrifices are made on the basis of "attraction". Marriage is a long-term proposition and sex will become the most minor component over time.

People who judge others hate it when their sanctimony is called out, and often play the victim.

No one criticized you for not liking strippers. You went over the line when you said that anyone who disagreed with you had no moral standards at all
Click to expand...


The problem with this critique is it has no basis in reality... because I did not say what you're claiming I said.

I said apparently having ANY moral standards at all was no longer to be tolerated in our society. That is not remotely the same as saying "anyone who disagrees with me has no moral standards at all"... the which I did NOT say.


So, was this a brainfart on your part, or did you misconstrue what I said on purpose?

:mrgreen:

I misconstrued nothing, but I can understand why you would want to deny what you said, and what it meant


Goshin said:
Looking at this thread, I'm getting that our society has "evolved" to the point where the only thing we WON'T tolerate and accept, is anyone having the slightest moral standards... or daring to say "I think that's wrong and don't want to get involved in it".


:damn:

Goshin said:
My point was that even SAYING "I think that is wrong and want no part of it" apparently brings out the Hounds of Political Correctness and Acceptance of Everything Except Morality to snarl and snap at the person who dares have some kind of standards... and worse still, has the nerve to SPEAK of them in public! Oh my no, we can't have that! :roll:

The obvious meaning is that people who disagree with you have no moral standards. Not even in the slightest.

Your characterization of what he said was entirely wrong, and on top of that, he wasn't even fully serious. Both are obvious from his posts.

I'd never heard of it either. Best I can figure, it's not a country but a part of Kosovo or thereabouts.

It tends to go a bit farther than that in my experience.

A skilled stripper deals in seductive manipulation like a Jiu-Jitsu master deals in snapping limbs. :lol:



How do you feel about lap dances?

I had forgotten about lap dances. :mrgreen:
 
Goshin said:
So, I'm not allowed to have a low opinion of strip clubs, strippers and patrons, or say "that's something I don't want any part of"?


It's what I was saying earlier.... people can no longer tolerate anyone having any moral standards whatsoever, especially if they have the brass to speak of them.

Word.
 
When I was in my late 30's I had a stripper girlfriend for two years. She was half my age. The romance was splendid. It was conversing that was difficult. I had to only talk about things from the late 80's on.
She did strip her way through mortuary college. She's probably down in Houston embalming some stiff right now.

Thks 4 da mammaries OP.
 
My thoughts ... working as an NP in ED and treating strippers and once renting a condo next to a group of strippers and conversations with men conned by strippers ... strippers are con artists.

The entire method of making money is to lead some loser schmuck to believe she finds him special by asking his phone number and getting drinks and tips ... not on service yet on a false premise. I am female ...would any man here think it was a good idea if I dated a con artist male who preyed on women for chump change by conning affection and crude displays of sexuality?

Any female who has the physical ability and decent enough appearance to strip can earn a decnt living in other ways.

If they lead you to believe they have no other way to earn some chump change that is a lie.

I know what strippers say about the idiots they con and I know most turn small tricks.

Gyrating in a dark club and conning loser guys for bucks is base. if your self esteem is so low you only feel worthy of dating a stripper you have other issues.

The only guy who should date a stripper is one who might say ... yea I date a con artist who thinks it is hot to take off her clothes and con men to earn what a waitress earns.

Drugs, prostitution, ETOH abuse are the more wholesome activities that often go hand in hand with strip clubs ... it is the conning of the human soul that is the sickest part of their work imho.

I put myself through undergrad and graduate school with respectable jobs and lived decently.

C'mon fellas ... are you that stupid?

Do you think guys are that stupid and they don't know? They pay for it because they apparently like it. That's the bottom line. :shrug:
 
This is a poll by Spanky, so of course it is terribly biase in it's wording. A legitimate poll would have asked "Would you be willing to marry a stripper? Yes or No

Instead, this poll:

Poll: Would you marry a stripper?
Yes, if I believed she truly loved me for me and not because I was saving her.
No, nothing but trouble there.

Setting aside I doubt few "strippers" need Spanky to "save" her, the real problem is with that would "love."

I see the wording of the poll as Spanky as trivializing "love." It would seem to me, if a person truly was in romantic TRUE "love" with someone, as opposed to infatuation, desire, lust etc, that seem to answer the question - at least in would seem so. What is missing from the poll is whether you love the stripper or not.

Yeah but they're not putting a dollar amount on their sexuality on the beaches of Brazil.

If a girl charges you $20 to get naked, then that's what it's worth.

I want a girl who's worth more than $20.

So you'd prefer one who charges $100 then? :lol:

You get what I'm saying, though. Sex CAN be something that's special between two people. The more special it is, the more it bonds the people together.

If a woman's sexuality can be bought, then it becomes a commodity. I spent more than $100 on tickets to a basketball game. I would like to think that a woman's sexuality is more valuable than basketball.

Of course it can. But that's up to individuals and what kind of relationship they want.

A friend of mine once told me when I asked him why he was always paying for prostitutes. He replied he wasn't paying for the sex, he was paying for the right to be able to walk away in the morning a free man with all obligations prepaid.
