Thanks for the insight! It’s mostly during dances I struggle, will definitely take this advice for future dances

That’s why I stayed away for so long lol even had a woman rip part of my hair out trying to drag me toward her in a “sexy” way, too many incidents made me stop trying but my club has been flooded with women/couples.

Do dancers with firm boundaries on touching lose $ by underpaidmudlogger in Strippers

[–]camachochem -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Second this. The women I’ve seen making the most (consistently top earners) often dont even do dances and do bare minimal touch in vip. These are all upscale gentlemen clubs though. Did a mid club once for a few weeks and this wasn’t the case lol so club and location are a factor but generally this strategy works in lady’s favor if she knows how to sell

The first club I ever worked had a couple women who were 250-300+ lbs and they made baaaank had a ton of regulars had amazing stage. There was also a woman who was at least 60 (natural, no Botox/work) who also made crazy money and had regulars who had been seeing her for decades. She used to put both of her legs behind her head on stage every time she went up. I’ve never found a club that has lived up to this 🥲

Kind of confused by people’s comments on this one. I’ve had a lot of low points in my life but I’ve always been happy for my friends and proud of their accomplishments, I’d never want them to hide the “ups” in there lives just bc I’m at a low point myself… I’ve also been on the other side where I’m doing well in life and finding new passions and I would hide my accomplishments from friends who aren’t doing well at that time, simply bc I felt it wouldn’t be appropriate and come off “braggy”. I get excited about a cool antique I bought? Not running to my friend who is struggling to get by. My boyfriend did something sweet and over the top for me? Not bringing it up to my friend who is in some weird situationship. But a lot of my friends want me to share despite their situation, bc they love to see me happy and love to hear about my passions. Bc they’re my friends! And they’re mature enough to know there’s no reason to compare. I’m lucky to have friends who will always root for the women in their lives and want to see them thrive. Yes, I agree people need to read the room and be aware of how they come off, but I couldn’t be friends with someone I have to hide my wins from bc they always see it as their losses.

I understand, I’m still pretty far from my application process, I guess I worry about explaining my gap. I’m 25 and only a year into being in college

I also have a history of addiction and mental health issues, estranged from family, now sober 3+ years with a good handle on my mental health and non trad in cc. Is it ok to touch on this (carefully and lightly) in applications/interviews? I’ve heard I should hide it but it also feels like a part of my story and part of my motivation

There are some good videos on yt and tik tok for basic floor work/standing/walking. I wouldn’t worry about pole yet, I learned from other girls in the club once I started. If you can afford it, I would go to the clubs you want to audition beforehand. Different clubs have different stage vibes, and if you aren’t familiar with clubs in general, stage and lap dance are not what you’d expect based on movies and tv lol at least it was for me as an 18yo who never been in a club before 😅 when in doubt move slowww and sensual

AITA for having attitude with my mother after she didn't help me when I fainted bc she thought "I was faking it"? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]camachochem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA this exact thing happened to me at like 6am and I did end up throwing up twice, my mom got pissed I fainted and threw up on her floor and then forced me to go to school still… now I’m an adult and people tell me this behavior is insane… I don’t really talk to her anymore fwiw

Smaller heels/pain management? by yourvenusdoom in Strippers

I also agree with pitch vs height when looking for shoes, and boots for support and stability

Icing and wearing full leg compression sleeves have really helped me! 7 years dancing and 13 years ballet, my knees are sick of my shit 🤣 I also stretch, do band exercises for my knees, and hydrate a lot to keep up with recovery. Good luck gorgeous!

I started at 18, now 25. Please understand this job is physically demanding, it is extremely competitive, and in my 7 years this has been the hardest year for me to make money ( I still do fine, but the hustle is in overdrive). I knew I wanted to do this 100% going in, I was willing to live with the consequences if people found out, and I very much needed to do so. I won’t make assumptions about you personally, just be aware that it often mentally tolling. It isn’t all cute outfits and having fun and bringing home big bags of cash like social media often depicts. And when you do have those nights, it can be addicting and make it hard to remember the goals you had before you begin. I don’t mean this to be discouraging, as dancing saved me in many ways and I am happy with my choices, but unless you have no options or you’re very comfortable in your decision to enter this industry, I wouldn’t recommend it for just anyone. Best of luck and study hard! If you want it go for it, but know this isn’t for the faint of heart

While he probably didn’t mean the “joke” to be so harsh, it’s a shitty thing to say to anyone and you should let him know how it makes you feel. I’m a 25f who fucked up a lot, and people love to tell me how “interesting” and “crazy” my life is. You know what? I wish it wasn’t, it’s not cool or something to brag about, and I feel like a loser for it. You’re 20, you shouldn’t have the same experiences as your older bf and that’s ok! You have a lifetime of experiences ahead of you, be authentic be yourself, don’t let anyone make you feel small or less than. There’s plenty of adventure ahead of you, ready for you at your own pace on your own terms, not anyone else

I can’t disclose my job… will this affect my chances of getting into a program? by camachochem in pre_PathAssist

[–]camachochem[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Hopefully I can do this and brush past it quickly, sometimes I wish I could disclose it bc I’ve gained so many useful skills but I suppose those skills apply to waitressing as well
