As a person that has been a patron of Strip Clubs and having friends that dance or have danced at these clubs, here are a few observations about how to act at a strip club.
I learnt these the hard way. No all clubs operate the same way and rules and regulations can and will vary from place to place, state to state and country to country. If in any doubt ask one of the girls how things work in this particular club.
While dancers have the same likes and dislikes as regular women they are generally on the higher end of the scale. That combined with their open-mindedness and you have someone who is fun to be around. Dancers are there to make your experience more pleasurable. Treat these women with respect, as communicating with a diverse group of men is not an easy job.
REMEMBER, she is not a hooker she is an Adult Entertainer. If she wanted to be a prostitute chances are she would be working within one of the local brothels.
Yes, dancers can be highly strung. In the real world she could have her pick of men, but at this moment she is choosing to spend some time with you. If you keep her happy; she will keep you happy. Not all dancers are the same. If one dancer doesn't do it for you another might. A club relationship will either work or it won't. When it works you will leave the club at the end of the night with a big smile. As with any woman, if you say something really stupid chances are she will leave you cold. If you are fun yourself, she can be the best companion for fun around. Just remember she is working and makes her living by being the life of everyone's party.
The reason it is sometimes call it a Gentlemen's Club is you are expected to act like a gentleman when in the club. Yes, you can just come in and drink, but the Strip Club's entertainment and atmosphere are provided by the dancers. The Strip Club's door charge doesn't cover the dancer's income; YOU share in that expense through tipping. While most Strip Clubs don't have a strict dress code and all are welcome, try and dress if you were going out to dinner or smart casual.
Always be charming and on your best behavior.

*IMPORTANT * If you are going to standing and/or sitting at the tipping rail around the stage (or near the stage) please have some bills or the clubs tipping dollars (NO coins!) available to tip the dancer(s) on the stage. Have them out, don't make her wait for you to pull them out. Expect to pay at least $5.00 per dancer while sitting at the rail. If you want some exclusive one-on-one
