(14,803 posts)about what you said (it being a relatively low skill set requirement) is that it is NOW true. But it did not used to be so. The business, like many corporatized ones in this day and age, has really become what many have always believed it to be...a meat market. 'Twas not always so, however.
It would take me all night to comprehensively explain what kind of skill set one needs to truly be successful in the business of exotic entertainment,but we can whittle it down to good salesmanship. While naked.
I worked my first two years completely sober, and I enjoyed almost all of my 14 years of exotic dancing. If you hate it, to be honest you really should not do it; but these days I can't fault anyone for doing what they need to do to survive. I've never hated it,but I've been out for years.My husband still djs at one, and it is much more draining and demanding than it used to be. Again, more due to corporate management styles for profit margins, than any other reason.
