The Fine Line Between a Hooters Girl and a Stripper

In our testosterone driven world, sex sells.  Everywhere you look, sex appeal dominates all aspects of entertainment, advertisement, and everything else in between.  When it comes to catering to the male ego and sex drive nobody does it better than a strip club.  Recently, there has been an emergence of family oriented establishments that have pushed the envelope of the appeal of man all the while maintaining a squeeky clean image.  How is this possible?  I had to ask the question;  what is the difference between a dingy, dirty, and socially unacceptable strip club as opposed to Hooters, the Tilted Kilt,  Bikinis, or other english pub themed restaraunt?  I am going to compare any average strip club in America to the lead dog of the industry, Hooters.  I've once written that the only difference between a Hooters girl and a stripper is when the Hooters girl tells you she's doing her job to get through college, she's not lying.  Although that is typically true, what seperates the help at either place?  Both types of girls are doing the same thing; using their sex appeal for tips.  They're both trained to give the customer a false sense of security whithin their walls.  Both prey on the vulnerable and cater to the needs of the man.  The only goal of both types of women is to get as much money out of the customer by using what God gave them physically.  You could be the crustiest looking guy on the planet and get treated like a king at both places.  It all comes down to that paper or card in your wallet that makes a working woman happy.  Although the attire is a little different, its not all that far off.  Aside from some nail polish or pasties around the nipples on a stripper, both workers wear things that leave little to the inagination of the customer.  Both business's target attractive, slender, well endowed woman to represent them.  The client base of each is where the differences start.  The same parents who block R rated movies from their kids are the ones who spend countless hours at the local Hooters.  Its a happy medium.  The dad is able to treat his family with a sub-par meal all while guzzling cold beer and eyeballing attractive women while jr. shoves chicken wings down his throat.  Little Suzy has ambitions of wearing the orange ass bearing shorts while earning a living.  The winner in this scenario is mom.  Mom shows the world that she is secure enough to accompany her man in a place that is surrounded by temptation.  These are probably the same women that won't go to the adult toy store to buy a vibrator but has no problem buying that industrial size  back massager cause her muscles hurt.  I'm willing to bet that 99 percent of these massagers get stored in the nightstand right next to the bed.  I mean, we all know that muscles only ache when your in bed, right?  Sure, you cant take little Suzy to the steak and fries lunch special at a men's club but why is it alright to take her to a place where she's surrounded by horny men that drink lots of beer and women  that wear booty shorts and skin tight shirts?  Although the Hooter's girl probably isn't doing drugs in the dressing room before showtime, both girls' rent and bills are due all the same.   My point is, society shouldn't point fingers at the adult industry when mainstream business's are guilty of the same thing.   By crossing a few more T's and dotting a few more I's they seperate themselves as family restaraunts.  I ask of everyone, the next time you see a stripper, hand her that dollar from jr's college fund with pride and not shame.  She may have tattoos and 3 kids but when it comes to her heart, she's in it for the same reason as the waitress at Hooters.
