Binding: PaperbackDewey Decimal Number: 790 EAN: 9780929712925 ISBN: 0929712927 Label: Huntington Press Manufacturer: Huntington Press Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 237 Publication Date: April 01, 2004 Publisher: Huntington Press Studio: Huntington Press Editorial Review: Product Description: Take a behind-the-scenes no-holds-barred tour of your neighborhood strip club in Confessions of a Stripper--Tales from the VIP Room. These adventures--both high and low--in the topless trade are culled from author Lacey Lane's seven years as an exotic dancer. This book takes you on an outlandish journey, from Lane's self-esteem issues, which provided the impetus for her entry into the skin biz, to the mysterious VIP Room, where anything and everything can happen. It's a parade through the screwy world of the strip club, where freaks, fetishists, scammers, high rollers, perverts, and even normal guys all congregate to partake in prurient fantasies of the flesh. Lane also provides a plethora of helpful hints for men--and women--who routinely frequent strip clubs, from tipping the bouncers and not getting suckered by roses and champagne to negotiating for services and yes, taking home a dancer. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Funny Stories If you're looking for the nitty gritty of the Dancers lives and activity this may not be the book for you - PG-13 at it's best. I was expecting at least an R rating if not more graphic based on the topic and nature of the book. Now that said, it is a wonderful and pleasureable read. Anyone who has visited a Adult Dance Club either as a Patron or Employee will find this a humorous quick read or walk down memory lane... Dancers/Strippers are hard working humans who are professionals and these stories ... Read More Rating: - She didn't tell it allI read the book expecting some inside information, I did't get it. She didn't tell anything but the odd things and odd people. My ersonal experience over a long period of time and many establishments she wasn't telling what really goes on, at least part of the time with some of t he dancers. Iknkow htere is a lot of fooling around that happens eveywhere than she disclosed. Rating:  - Too Tame and too boring!This one is a fast read, but it's fast because it's boring! The author's issues with self-aggrandizement are really present in her writing...she is perfect and everyone else has the most horrific flaws! She never waivers to put someone down and yet,never makes any intention of trying to figure out why the person is acting/reacting in a certain way. I was bored with her tales of the VIP because none of it was really surprising to me. Actually, I came away wondering why she found it so amusing?? ... Read More Rating: - very entertaining.....good readThis author put together a well written book with some great stories in it. I enjoyed reading the book and read it in one night. Lap Dancers was another good book about exotic dancers. Dance to Despair (memoirs of an exotic dancer) is also a must read for anyone who is interested in this topic. Rating:  - LOVED THIS BOOK !!!!I had Danced for 10 years ( Retired my Stipper Shoes a year ago ) and I thought this book was funny , well written , and (as crazy as some of the charactors ...) believable . I laughed out loud quite a few times ! I do not believe she put dancers down or judged them at all ... she simply had her set of boundries ( But was very honest about the things that push or altered her personal boundries and decisions , like money , alcohol , sympathy , ect.) Out of any of the books I'd read on this subject , ... Read More |
