I think in NYC strip clubs are gone. I hear more women talking about there nights our at the SC then men. I liked the days when they were gentleman clubs, no single women allowed. The women have taken over our men's sanctuary's.
In the immortal words of the Sports Guy: Women Ruin Everything.
The bartender at the club is hotter than the dancers? That's nice, shes also a fuckin stuck up bitch.
A gentleman club must have some feeling of comraderie. "We are kin, and these are the girls we'll enjoy together", instead of "All this is ours and you're gonna give us your fucking money or get the fuck out. That'll be 6 bucks for that bottle of purified water we buy in bulk from Costco, buddy."
You go to a strip joint and it's a gaggle of skanks in g strings, bitchy bartenders, mobbed up management, and roided up bouncers looking to fuck up your night and your wallet . The environment caters to fratboy/hood lowlife clientele, and is necessarily antagonistic for this reason.
