What do women think of being in the presence of scantily clad women (i.e., Hooters?)

Out of curiosity, what do most women (assuming heterosexual) think when they are in the presence of scantily clad women in a business establishment (i.e., Hooters?)

“I am not interested in a world where men really want to watch porn but resist because they’ve been shamed. I’m interested in a world where men are raised from birth with such an unshakable understanding of women as human beings that they are incapable of being aroused by their exploitation.” Jonah Mix

One data point: I was asked to chaperone a bachelorette party once. They needed a chaperone because they wanted to go to a strip club (for men) and they couldn’t get in with out a male escort.
I took a hard pass on that one.

Having been to Hooters with my husband, I can tell you that my thought was, “hmm, the waitresses are cute, but the food is terrible.”

Why? Couldn’t find your velvet fedora and dollar sign cane?

Why would a group of women need a male escort to go to a strip club?

LOL. :smiley:

It’s just door policy. No women allowed in with out a male escort. I assume they do this to keep pissed off GFs or wives from coming in there and making a scene.

Whaa? How would that stop them? I figure a good percentage of male strippers are gay anyhow.

Demanding male escorts for groups of women is flagrantly sexist and condescending.

And to answer the OP’s question about how a woman feels being around scantily clad women at a business which demands it, I would feel indifference because I know the women are dressed that way because their workplace makes them do it. It’s like a uniform.

I assume “strip club (for men)” means that the strippers are female.

I can’t believe a strip club would be flagrantly sexist and condescending toward women.

I’m a guy. It’s just typical bar food. I’ve been twice. Once in St. Louis, and once in Shanghai. Both were business trips, interestingly.

Why in the world would a bachelorette party want to go see female strippers?

Umm, unless this is for a marriage that was only legal recently?

Well, that’s what the OP is asking. I too, wonder. Some women go to strip clubs, on dates with their men. Why?

I’m going to hazard a guess alcohol was involved, possibly a considerable amount at other venue(s) before arriving there. I don’t see a relatively sober cadre of women going to see female strippers as likely.

Good quote, but per OP, is that really what women are thinking when in the presence of scantily-clad female employees? I am asking about what people are actually thinking, not what they ought to think.

(No disrespect to you if you are a woman)

My initial read of Grrr’s first post was that he was asked to chaperone, and thus the evening was planned, in advance; not that the party just showed up and were turned away at the door. Checking again, it doesn’t say one way or the other. If the visit was impromptu, it’s a bit presumptuous for them to call a friend and ask him to drop whatever he’s doing just to get them into a strip club.

Hmm. I doubt your theory. I’d say it’s more likely they’re keeping out hookers.

There is, after all, no sex in the champagne room. But lead a guy outside the building - and therefore no longer making money for the proprietor - and there most certainly CAN be sex in the parking lot.

I’m a guy, but I’ve been with women in this kind of situation, and they have made comments to me like “Wow she has nice boobs”. But not out of lust, just admiration. Or yeah, in some cases lust.

“Rock that shit, girl!! Yaaaaassss!”

actually its recently a thing for the last 15 years or so for women to go in strip clubs sometimes for the lulz sometimes its for the girls like a guy would …. sometimes its with the bf/husband ….
A lot of the dancers will play up the comments/gay baiting for laughs because women are better tippers than guys as a whole
