    I’m not sure why you’re getting downvoted. I dated a stripper for a couple years. We met outside the club but anyway, her and several of her friends seemed to like the clientele for the most part. The majority of guys were respectful, clean, and tipped well. The men they mentioned hating were the ones who tried to be aggressive, rude, smelled, or otherwise unclean which seemed to be a small minority of customers and the bouncer wouldn’t let obvious problem customers in. One of her friends was even dating a guy that had been a regular that she got to know at the club. I’m fairly certain they were all employed as independent contractors and they all looked out for each other in addition to security staff. My experience is second hand and anecdotal but I was surprised reading the meme and seeing the response to your post, I was unaware that it was broadly believed strippers didn’t like their clients, I thought strippers actually seemed to like their clients more than most other professions. Doubt any of it can be proven with any factual basis either way so probably a pointless debate and varies wildly at different clubs.

      You’re using the wrong definition of ‘like’. Strippers generally aren’t interested in their clients. OFC they’ll like nice, well tipping people… they pay their bills!

      The meme means strippers usually aren’t interested in dating your ass, not that it’s impossible or never happens.

      It’s the same kind of people that think the Hooter’s girls are being nice because they’re interested in you, rather than simply being nice to do their job and get a better tip.

      Because “like” in the context of the meme means “interested in romantically,” whereas the person you replied to took it to mean “like” in the plutonic sense. It’s a common phrase because strippers are paid to pretend that they want to fuck you, but rarely are they actually romantically attracted to their customers. But if you’re delusional, you might believe they actually want to fuck you.

      Ofc, there are exceptions to every rule, but they are few and far between.

        I guess I was blissfully ignorant that anyone would think a stripper has romantic interest outside of very edge cases. The guy I met through my ex that was dating her friend (stripper), he was surprised when she asked him to take her out on a date.
