Make no mistake. I am acutely aware of the obvious "self righteous moral order vs hedonistic chaos" vibe flowing through the last few pages of this thread. However, that is really no different than anyother discussion dealing with this sort of subject matter.

Really though, does it honestly require 48 pages to retread that same old tired ground?

The sex industry and dating strippers is bad...

Now I'm taking the other side again. What about girls at parties that get drunk and take their clothes off for free. Are they not messed up people?

Also, I already told you that I have a friend who used to be a stripper and isn't a mess, so that's not always the case. Generally, okay but certainly not always.

Also, what if you met a girl who you really loved everything about and then you found out she used to be a stripper or was currently a stripper?

So you're saying you would never have sex with a stripper because you fear genital warts?

:lamo That's disgusting, and how would strippers get genital warts any more so than anyone else unless they're doing a little something extra on the side?

I've never heard that Dick was afraid of anything especially when hard...

Did they grow up to become strippers? I figure they had to come from somewhere.

My biggest problem with the lifestyle was the drugs. Lawd knows it's rough when her friends come over and each one is carrying a small pharmacy counter in their purse. It's also a little too tempting when they offer to share.

All Catholic girls are strippers at heart.
 
Don't forget that this is about strippers, not prostitutes. Talking about sexually transmitted diseases means that you are crossing into prostitution territory, which is not what we were talking about.

It depends. Didn't I say as much about ten pages ago though?

I'm sure there are some genuinely decent strippers out there. For instance, I met one a couple of years back who, after about our fourth or fifth lap dance together, starting telling me all about how she was running her own small business as a seamstress, and was looking to potentially start a clothing line with Baby Gap.

She was very nice, and she made sure I knew how much I was spending so that I didn't go over board (she was honestly attractive and skilled enough that she could've made me spend just about anything if she'd wanted to).

However, even she ultimately conned me.

She gave me her number at the end of the night, and like a dumb ass, I sent her a text message. Not ten minutes later, I got a call back from a very angry black man demanding to know who I was. :lamo

Appearances can be deceiving, I'm afraid. It's best to not take the risk where people in "certain lines of work" are concerned.

There are probably some legitimately marriageable people in the sex / sex entertainment industry out there, but the odds of running into one of them are pretty low.

I'm saying that I'm glad that I haven't had the opportunity. I know better than to trust my better judgement where sexy women who know... things, are concered. :lol:

I generally avoid those kinds of women too. ;)

Exactly Chris. I purposely drew a line between strippers and hookers but it is illuminating in how some can't tell tell the difference.

But posters observations and history on how stripping and hooking can intersect is interesting as well.

From what I understand a lot of strippers do something extra on the side.
Just a visit to the private show room can reveal this.

Prostitution, pornography, things I know are sinful. What's wrong with me having standards? I'm not judging the stripper, I'm just saying as far as my choice goes in marrying someone I have standards and I want them to have like-minded morals especially when it comes to raising children.

I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with your position but I do disagree with your statement that you're not judging strippers. Clearly you are.
 
I know there are guys who:
1. are envious of the Taliban,
2. are guys who only want a virgin bride, and
3.men who are terribly insecure about his sexuality

but otherwise...

... for other men I haven't actually heard any specific reason other than claiming most exotic dancers are bad people. So? I wouldn't marry "most" women anyway.

Except for those 3 groups of men above, specifically why is there no possible woman who is or was an exotic dancer you could marry? Do you feel the same way about models? Women who wear a string bikini at the beach? Any woman who did a wet T-shirt contest at a bar?

What is the reason REALLY?

Indeed, in my first year high school, there was this nice looking teacher with a huge chest...I DEFINITELY got distracted.

I was far more distracted by what a female teacher looked like then by her past.

Maybe if this thread was not permeated with the stripper=prostitute/drug addict type of stereotyping ...

Maybe , just maybe... there could be some reasonable discussion.

Probably, but on this thread we're discussing just strippers, not prostitution. People are blurring the lines between the two now. A stripper is a prostitute if she puts out for money. And the question of the OP was would you marry a stripper, not a prostitute. It may sound a little nitpicky, but there IS a big difference.

It's fun talking about strippers and hookers and sex! :mrgreen:

That's true, but you're veering off topic with this venereal disease talk. The question was would you marry a stripper, not would you marry a prostitute. Again, once a stripper crosses that line and accepts money for sex, she is no longer just a stripper but is a prostitute now as well.
 
This thread is overflowing with presumptions.

I have known a few myself. Some women are comfortable with their sexuality, and when they can make $600 a night, why not?

True enough. However, I was never suggesting that strippers would be more likely to carry STDs because they were prostitutes per se. I was suggesting that they would have a greater chance of possessing STDs because most of them happen to be rather "rough" people with lifestyles that often entail irresponsible and inherently risky behavior both on and off the pole.

The vast majority of the strippers I've met have either been dumb as treestumps, or so massively jaded as to leave you feeling vaguely "unclean" after having had dealings with them.

This isn't to say that there aren't exceptions to that rule. There are exceptions to every rule. As a matter of fact, the major reason the girl I mentioned before took me so completely by surprise was that she actually came off as being rather normal.

That being said, however; I'd venture to say that most of the women who turn to stripping for their livelihood likely did so for a reason. Those reasons, in addition to the manipulative attitudes and skillsets many strippers hone over the courses of their careers, render most of them less than ideal mates in my mind.

Hedging your bets on the off chance that you might be lucky enough to meet one of the few "good" people in a bad line of profession simply isn't a sound business strategy. You're inevitably going to run across far more turds than diamonds.

Interesting study. FWIW
Click to expand...

If I remember the stats correctly from the study, about 40% of the women involved do not involve themselves in sex for money and/or "things".

The study was interesting, though not terribly surprising. One thing we are not able to determine from reading the thesis is how many times Cody got his pipes cleaned or his ashes hauled while conducting his research. :shock:
