Whats the general consensus on lap dancing?

Wow.  As an older person, this is really an informative site!  Growing up in my day we couldn't even talk about what is going on here. Personally at my age I don't have the body for it. Women have always done what they needed to do to survive in the world.  Unfortunately they have to work under situations that men in general don't have to deal with.  Women are paid less for the same types of work and denigrated on many occasions for being female, period.  When a woman makes "good" money there are always rumors of sleeping their way to the top. It comes down to the simple matter of respect.  Mothers are blamed for the way a child is raised, so where was the father role?  Women are jailed for prositution, so what about the johns or pimps?  Martha Stewert was jailed for something Corporate heads have been doing ever since the stock market was instituted.  Women have consistantly been jailed for longer periods of time for crimes men commit and get a slap on the wrist for.\n\nBottom line, be proud of your survival skills, don't "wimp" out.  You are doing something that gives pleasure: To the person you are dancing for and yourself for supporting yourself and your education for the future.  Just don't mess with the "extra-curricular" stuff that tends to go along with this business.  And be careful.  Society already looks at you askance and will believe you are doing something "wrong", or if you are attacked in some way, you deserve what you get.  \n\nBe careful and enjoy your adventure.

Belly dance or bellydance is a Western name coined for a style of dance developed in the Middle East and other Arabic-influenced areas. In the Arabic language it is known as Raqs Sharqi.\n\nBelly dancing legitimizes the natural "roundness" of the female body, in contrast to the modern Western cultural preference for flat stomachs. Most of the basic steps and techniques used in belly dance are circular motions isolated in one part of the body, i.e., a circle parallel to the floor isolated in the hips or shoulders. Accents using "pop and lock" where a dancer either shimmies or makes a striking motion in her shoulders or hips are common, as are feats of flexibility, rolling one's stomach muscles, balancing various props like baskets, swords or canes.\n\nEgyptian-style belly dance is based on the work of belly dance legends Samia Gamal, Tahiya Karioka, Naima Akef, and other dancers who rose to fame during the golden years of the Egyptian film industry. Later dancers who based their styles partially on the dances of these masters—and who have risen to nearly the same level of stardom and influence on the style—are Sohair Zaki, Fifi Abdou, and Nagwa Fouad. All rose to fame between 1960 and 1980, and are still popular today.\n\nand i like it, and it is very sexy and (check this out) : feminine

Part of why you don't like it is because you haven't learned how. It probably wasn't somthing done very often in your household when you were growing up. But this practice has been around for centuries. Back ages past it was a way to get close to a woman you were interested in, and if you could move at all and still smile sweetly as you gazed adoringly upon her, then you were the object of all woman's affections.\nLearn some older steps first in a classroom setting. It will give you a good foundation for learning more moves and modern dances. Once you've got the hang of moving your feet to the beat, and not being stiff kneed or staring at your toes... then you can learn some dances in a more social environment like a country bar and pick up some of those fun line dances.\nBelieve me a man who knows how to move on the floor will have more successful moves off the floor if you take my meaning. Plus it's a great excuse to hold a woman close, even strange women!\nEnjoy!

I really liked it, there was some good humor.  It does help to have at least a small interest in ballroom dancing.\n\nif you see it and do like it, try strictly ballroom by Baz Luhrman. :)

It's a little wierd, but it's sweet all at the same time. How about Martina McBride's "In my daughter's eyes." It's a very nice song and half way through you could invite other mother/daughter  father/daughter duos onto the floor with you so it wouldn't be so bizarre for so long.\n\nAlso, by inviting people onto the dance floor to be with you two and then having a great song follow, you will really get the dancing party started.

Sounds like fun.  Hopefully you'll find a willing girl with awesome pits to let you do it.  I don't think it's weird, it's practically the same thing as a tittie f-uck.

Totally the second option.  I actually quite liked the Don't Cha, until I went (as a mum!) to a party for an 11 year old, and saw the aforementioned 11 year olds gyrating and dancing in a nasty knowing way to the song.  Eww.  I went home and washed in bleach.  Fair enough wear provocative clothing, and make provocative music, but don't market it at 'tweenies'!  Ditto Black Eyed Peas - My Humps - the image of pre-pubescent girls showing off their 'lady lumps' put me off food for a week.\n\nMaybe I'm just getting old.........

Its our culture. Since we are kids dancing is pretty regular. Our parents did it, and we do it...\nso it is kind of natural to shake our junk.\n\nIf you want to do it, just practice. Move those hips, try not to move the rest of your body. Practice! Practice! Practice!

Belly dancing, and hula dancing, it is a tough workout but it works. Hula helps the rest of the body more, but belly dancing really gets the abs hips & sides it is a fun workout, but I hope you are coordinated, it took me awhile to get the steps down.

I believe women do like ballroom dancing, and I think that women would like a guy to learn it as well.  There are too many cheesy hip hop dancing going on with no class.  I think women are looking for a classy guy no matter what the income level is.

if you like fat people, do it often as you like. if you dont, ask yourself how often you do charity?  would they like that? depends on what happen /what you do during the dance (and after)

My favorite is probably putting on some non-distracting music (Plastikman is my preference for this) and dancing around until I fall over. Usually takes an hour or so. \n\nMost effective...isn't legal, which I think answers that nicely. Not my favorite, though, as it's harder to do quite a few things.

Depends on the situation. Some things, I'm a little shy when I first do it, but then get comfortable with it (like meeting new people). Other things I just refuse to do (like dancing). But that's just me.

I used to be a stripper and bar manager, so I understand where your feelings are coming from, I had to deal with a lot of insecure wives and gf's in that place. But if it is a clean and decent club. Then I assure you, you have nothing to worry about. Strippers are just working people too, some people do it with their clothes on others with no clothes. Most adult entertainers are there to work to raise kids, go to college or just to pay bills. I agree there are some out there who do other things to make money and that's what give's strippers a bad name in general. I used to host couples nights on Saturday nights just so the wives and gf's could come in and see what goes on there. So what if a man get's a lap dance. It's just a dance and most laws state that dancers have to have a certain amount of space between them and the customer. It's all in fun that's why it is called Adult Entertainment. If you want to message me and ask me more about it I will do my best to answer all of your questions about it. But I am sure that you have nothing to worry about by your man going to the strip club. Hope this answer helps from someone in the profession.

I agree, and smiled and looked fabulous doing it! I LOVE GINGER. When I open a dance school, I will name it in her sake!!!! People who aren't dancers dont realize how difficult it is to 1.) follow a partner 2.) dance backwards and 3.) do it in heels with out breaking your ankle or neck
