Alcoholism is so popular with strippers because it is often encouraged by the club. Yes, strippers who have this problem are weaker than others. For a long time I would not have labeled myself in that category because, apparently, I believed I was stronger than I was.

When I finally quit drinking I could down an entire bottle of Patron to myself in a shift, and often did. The clubs encouraged it and the customers like feeling as if you are partying with them. To top it off, there was always a direct correlation between how much money I would make and how much I drank. When your income is based on the party, it makes it difficult that much more difficult to quit.

I think clubs do need to watch out for their ladies and not let them drive if they have been drinking at work. As a bartender I will not serve a dancer liquor if they are driving.

The women working selling a club’s liquor deserve the clubs apperication and protecton.

I also think the clubs need to learn about alcoholism and help their dancers dry out and not get knee walking drunk. Dancers also need to learn how to appericate their lives and learn how to take better care of themselves.

Sure thts easy. Alchoholism is a chronic disease which is likely to have run in a persons family, as well as their own life. Alcohol abuse means that while you might not yet be an alcoholic, or have a daily problem, it does mean the person binge drinks when out at the bars or at home. It doe not mean the person has progressed to the point to where they desire alcohol every day, or uses the substance to cope with life’s everyday troubles. Hope that helps.

Hello:
I’m an adjunct faculty college professor who teaches psychology courses at a Boston area community college. I’m in the process of designing a special program for current dancers and retired strippers that will help them get a high school equivalency diploma and/or a college education, leading to a better career, thus leaving the adult entertainment industry. No more abuse, exploitation ….

I have been researching exotic dancing & strip clubs and wondered if you could send me your thoughts of how I can interview the girls and develop a trusting relationship. Do I speak with management? Do I go dressed as a dancer? Do I apply for work in a club? I need your help. I’m 61 but look like I’m in the early 50s. I’m not a square, and I really do want to help the girls.

I chose the “stage” name Variety.
