the girls expect the people sitting there to be tippers. There's nothing wrong with sitting near the stage and getting up to tip; it's actually quite flattering to the dancer that someone will walk to the stage with the intention of tipping her.

DRINKING AND DANCING
Most strip clubs serve alcohol, and chances are you'll be having so much fun that you may have one (or a few) too many. Make sure you check yourself periodically so that you don't become the obnoxious drunk that all the girls are snickering about backstage - and so that you can't be taken for a fool. While most strippers are honest about how much you owe them, there are some bad apples who overcharge because they can get away with it.

You will probably be offered the opportunity to buy a dancer a drink - but before the waitress comes over, ask her if she'd like one. Some people are surprised that there are strippers who don't drink alcohol, but they do exist! Sometimes she'd rather you save your money for lap dances and tips, and she'll let you know ahead of time if she's thirsty. If your stripper asks you to buy her a drink but you don't want to, let her know kindly by saying, "I'd rather not." Leave out any insulting remarks that you may be inclined to toss in - although that seems like common sense, you'd be surprised at what comes out of some people's mouths.

LAP DANCES
If a stripper approaches you and you don't want her company, simply tell her no and thank her for stopping by. Please, no matter what you do, don't fake a disability or lie by saying you're gay, you're waiting for another girl, or you're just there to watch. If any of those are true, it's okay; if not, she'll be able to peg you for a liar and tell all of her friends what a jerk you are. You'll be sitting alone all night, and you'll wish you hadn't lied to the first girl who came along.

Find out the price of a lap dance before you actually get one; since the costs vary by club, you'll need to know what can fit in your budget and what can't. Remember - when you're getting a dance and the stripper asks, "Do you want me to keep going?" it's a whole new song, and you'll be charged for a whole new lap dance. Pay attention to how many you've gotten - it's embarrassing to both you and your dancer if you haven't got the money to pay for the services she's given you.

Although the law never allows it in the United States, some clubs look the other way in regards to touching, while others do not. Find out what your particular stripper is comfortable
