after drugging a wealthy man with a drug similar to the date rape drug. Here is a link to the story: > **[The strippers arrested for drugging, blackmailing rich clients](https://nypost.com/2014/06/11/strippers-busted-in-plot-to-drug-blackmail-wealthy-clients/)** > > A crew of brunette strippers targeting rich marks drugged the men, racked up huge jiggle joint bills on their credit cards and blackmailed them with “compromising” XXX photographs, officials said W… The headline reads as follows: **Strippers busted in plot to drug, blackmail wealthy clients** Apparently some NYC strippers drugged some wealthy men and then rang up huge charges on their credit cars (huge as in about $200K). My question is: If you had access to all that money, would you succumb to a woman who looks like the one in this article? IMHO, she is not at all attractive and I wouldn’t give her any money at all for some kind of sexual services. I wouldn’t pay her a dime. Actually, that may not be true. I would pay her something to go away and leave me alone if I never again had to look at her hideous face. Would you give her money for some kind of stripper services? ---

I have to wonder why a wealthy guy would be going to some shithole strip club in Queens instead of Flashdancers, Sapphire or Hustler Club in Manhattan. ---

From your comments, I was expecting a toothless, wrinkled hag with stringy hair and assorted scars… I kinda feel the same way. Who knows what she looks like all dolled up. I’m sure the OP has seen stuff like this before, but… > **[See the Latest Stars Who Have Joined the No-Makeup Selfie Crew](https://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/pictures/stars-without-makeup-20122410/)** > > See these celebrities who look radiant even without makeup, including Pippa Middleton, Zendaya, Brooklyn Decker and more stars! Girl on the left - no way. Of course she is the same as the girl on the right. And don’t forget Hugh Grant - he screwed things up with one of the most beautiful women in the world for a fairly unattractive woman. It’s amazing how relatively plain looking women can be transformed into gorgeous knockouts with the right makeup and clothes. I’m not sure I get what make some women look so much better - is it the skill of the makeup artist - or something about their bone structure and skin? But $200k is of course a ridiculous fee and I never got the allure of Strip Clubs anyway. Jesus - for $200K you could go to a country where prostitution was legal (I think I’d skip the outskirts of Nevada) - and have a selection of really beautiful women for a long, long time before you ran out of $200K. Anyway - although the first woman looks like she has (to me - I am no expert) a bit of makeup on - she obviously wasn’t trying to look her best at that moment. If all women were to be judged when they are forced to do a perp walk - I think you’d be disappointed in a lot of women you think are attractive now. ---

> [@DataX](#): > > It’s amazing how relatively plain looking women can be transformed into gorgeous knockouts with the right makeup and clothes. It’s not just that: a still photograph often doesn’t do a person justice. I’ve certainly seen unattractive photos of people who, when I’ve interacted with them in person, I’ve found quite attractive. ---

Well you gotta remember that the OP is [so disgusted by Michelle Obama’s looks](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17250417&postcount=251) that he, as they say, “wouldn’t touch her with Bea Arthur’s dick.” His love meter swings totally the other way for [Amy Adams](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17222810&postcount=48). He would like to meet her so they can fall madly in love. So it’s not hard believe that he would be icky poo grossed out by a couple of olive skinned strippers with extra curves and botox lips. Especially when they are not dressed up in their man-pleasing attire - since he is also a fashion expert. The funny part is that he feels so strongly about each of these women, enough to say the most horrible and/or creepy things about them. There is no middle ground for Charlie. Good show. ---

If you read the article, most of victims were targeted at smaller bars or restaurants in Manhattan where they were drugged and then taken to the strip clubs and had their cards charged and then to hotels where incriminating photos were taken. If the article is true, then these victims weren’t trolling strip clubs and just got hit, which as far as I know, going into a strip is not illegal, but fraudulently charging someone’s card is. ---

Also, I don’t know the place mentioned in the article, but Queens has some huge, flashy, expensive strip joints, mostly along Queens Boulevard. They’re not all shitholes. And they’re much more accessible to anyone driving than any place in Manhattan. The story mentioned that one of the accused women brought her mark from Nassau County to the joint in Queens. Makes perfect sense, if you look at a map. ---
