I can only speak from my experience, there are so many questions to comment on here, but first let me tell you that here in Los Angeles, there are clubs for lesbians that feature stripping. It’s an old joke that the strippers are all ‘straight’, which plays into the popular culture myth of gays wanting to turn straights. It’s an inside joke. The stripping in these clubs is more a feature of the club, for atmosphere, than the whole focus of the club. None of my lesbian friends have ever told me about their stripper experiences, i think that’s a guy thing, and straight women. My last three serious relationships were with women who enjoyed strip clubs, one club here in particular that is known for it’s late night Co-ed crowds. My buddy and I went there for his birthday with our lesbian couple-friends. I don’t think they would have gone there on their own cause it’s just not there speed, It’s still oriented for men paying women, but they had a good time anyway. Gay couples are as diverse as straight ones. None of my lesbian friends give it a second thought, it’s not on their minds. Perhaps there is a divide within the lesbian community about stripping, but my experience has been that almost any Gay debate sounds just like everyone else’s debate. There is no real single category – you’re either on this side of the line or you’re not. Much in the way my Gay brother is not in any way a stereotypical gay man, even his own friends find it hard to believe sometimes. And what is the stereotype? One answer might be that bi-women go to strip clubs all the time – with their boyfriends. Two of the girls i mentioned before had had female lovers and readily talked about it. After all, are they not the classic bi-sexual reference? In their cases, as many lesbian friends of mine, the level of offense to women acting-out or being forward is about equal to that of straight women – i’m sure you know several straight women who are offended by stripping? Whether religious or post-modern feminism, some women have always been offended by women dancing for men’s money. I don’t think sexual orientation is a determinate factor here- ultimately, it’s a political choice.
