I’ve never been to a strip club or been near an on-duty exotic dancer. I don’t know many people who go to strip clubs or hire exotic dancers, so I don’t have many people to ask this question of. I’m hoping that those of you with wider experience can answer for me.
When an exotic dancer (of any gender) is close to you, can you smell the dancer?
I’m asking particularly about when the dancer’s, umm, naughty bits are near your face, and, hence, near your nose. (Hey, if you can smell the dancer from across the room, it’s time to move to a different club.)
I’m thinking that when anybody puts a crotch in your face, you can smell that crotch. (At least that’s my personal experience with non-professional crotches. )
And different people emit different levels of scent, so conceivably some dancers are more aromatic than others.
What’s the straight dope from those of you who have been there?
Yes, you can smell them, but you have to get real close. Strippers are actually very fastidious about their cleanliness, due to the fact that anything that’s a turn off for their patrons costs them tips and, potentially, their job.
Maybe, but I bet the smell of the customers is somewhat … overpowering … with all that liquor, smoke, and sweat. (Hey sounds like a meeting of the local Teamsters union!)
In addition to the cusomary fastidiousness, the strippers I’ve had near me were thoroughly drenched in perfume.
One particular stripper had a perfume that just drove me wild, so I asked her what it was.
Several months later while shopping for a girlfriend at Nordstrom, I couldn’t find the “Primo”. And finally one of the sales ladies recognized the name as a $4.00, fake version of Giorgio.
You can’t smell THAT, but you do smell purfume and babypowder, as everybody has said.
There was one dancer that I got 3 consecutive dances from that during the third one, I started to smell something. I guess either doing what she did or the fact that she took all of my money turned her on.
Thanks for all of the replies so far, everyone. Baby powder, eh? Interesting: It masks body odors, but has an odor of its own.
KKBattousai, what brought this on is that I’m thinking about sex a lot since this weekend (hmmm, let’s see – what makes a Jeyen think about sex? ), and the scent of exotic dancers is one of those sex questions I’ve never gotten answered. Figured I’d just go ahead and ask. For a lot of people, scent is an important part of the sex experience, but exotic dancing is primarily visual. I was wondering if anyone ever noticed anything but the visual.
handy, I would expect that an exotic dancer’s crotch would smell like pussy or dick (as with everybody else), along with each person’s specific sweat and musk. Although now that I think about it, I don’t remember ever reading a discussion of how men’s crotches smell and the appropriate term to describe that smell. I think that men have a distinctive “male” smell, and their crotches have a noticeably different smell from the rest of them, but far as I know there’s no male equivalent of “smells like pussy”. Maybe I’ll post that next…
archmichael, what is “sniffer’s row”? I’m assuming this is somehow different from receiving a lap dance or other close personal attention.
Badtz Maru, my sympathies or my congratulations, depending on what your reaction was to the smell of poo.
At the strip clubs I’ve patronized, they all wear the same perfume, drenched from head to toe, and that’s all you smell. And, if they do their job right, that’s what you smell like at the end of the night.
My wife knows the smell. She sniffed it on me the night of my bachelor party. So, I don’t think I could put one over on her in the future if me and the boys ended up at the same place.
Hell, I call it “pervert row” too. Doesn’t keep me from sittin’ there.
I’ve never smelled that distinctive vagina smell, and I have indeed been up close and personal with some dancers (at the Ice House in Albuquerque, you could go in the back room and, for $18, get a one-song one-on-one masturbation show about one inch from your face). Not to burst your bubble, but dancing doesn’t turn the girls on. No turn-on, no scented fluids a’flowing.
The best time I’ve ever had in a strip club was when I brought a lesbian couple with me. When you’re with women who are spending money, you tend to get treated like a human being, unlike when you’re in a guys-only group and you get treated like a wallet with eyes. And the dancers do things for the gals that they’d NEVER do for the guys, for which you’re sitting in close proximity…houcha magoucha.
