I don't like them touching me either, but if you're in a VIP Room and you're not accepting lap dances, you'll find yourself leaving by the collar in a damn hurry.

I'm actually fascinated by sex workers, and I read a lot about them. (Strip City, G-Strings and Sypmathy (i'm really jealous that this was someone's doctoral disertation), Live Nude Girl). I go to the
Sex Worker's Art Show when it comes into town, and I talk to a lot of the performers afterwards. The woman who won Ms. Burlesque World last year had an amazing strip-tease. And I've dated people who work (on the periphery) in the sex industry.
My interest is a little more academic than I think yours, and I think it gives me a more detachment. It also sort of ruins any mystery that might exist. My ex- used to say after watching something like 1000 hours of porn in a month, he's totally desensitized to it. Plus, he knows what goes on in the background.
I guess sometimes it's better not to go behind the curtain.
BTW, this is a
blog of a stripper from New Orleans. Obviously, the last few weeks aren't that great to read about, but she's quite fascinating to read.
