Yes there is an asshole tax in Vegas strip clubs.  And it has nothing to do with a stripper’s taint…although you’ll probably end up paying the asshole tax if you ask to see her balloon knot.

If you’re an asshole you’ll pay more and get less.  That simple.

They are called gentlemen’s clubs and being a gentleman will result in a better experience.

I know…the girl is a “stripper” and she earns a living taking off her clothes for guys.  She’s also a woman and a person and deserves to be treated with respect.  She has feelings and emotions and good days and bad days. And on any of those days, you will get better service from her if you are polite and kind and treat her with respect.  Based on over 30 years of experience and observation, you will get a better lap dance and better private dances and more time for less money of you do.  And if you don’t, you’ll end up paying the “asshole tax.”  

The Asshole Tax isn’t an “official tax”, but I can assure you it exists and assholes will pay it…sometimes even bouncer/security enforced.

How To Have an Enjoyable Vegas Strip Club Experience

REASONS YOU MIGHT PAY THE ASSHOLE TAX

• Disrespectful or Rude comments
• Cocky Attitude
• Bad Breath
• Body Odor
• Too Much Cologne–splash on a little…it isn’t marinade
• Asking to have Sex…sex is not legal in the strip clubs and the dancer will string you along and “rape your wallet” to make you are think you are getting some when in reality you won’t.  By the way, sex with strippers is possible and does happen–much more often than you might think–and for less money.  (I’ll post soon on the proper way to do this–maybe a page on the site rather than a post.)
• Inappropriate touching–Most dancers in Vegas Strip Clubs both allow and encourage touching.  But follow her lead and don’t try to insert your fingers into anything unless she specifically asks.  If you want to touch her, ask.
• Asking stupid questions, like “What’s your real name?” or making comments like you can’t get a lap dance because you’d have to charge her. 
• Criticizing her looks–say something like, I” prefer brunettes” instead.

Here’s a great post on Strip Club Ettiquette

Here’s an example of what can happen when you aren’t an asshole.

In the showroom for Monday Night Football at Sapphire. I watched a dancer approach a guy and he says, “I don’t like nasty strippers…I’m only here to watch football and eat.” This guy spends his night alone in a club with over 400 hot beautiful women.

Same dancer approaches me.  I clearly communicate that I’m not likely to buy any lap dances because I’m there for the game, but that she’s welcome to have a seat and chat. She comments that she likes football and so I invite her to sit with us during the game and tell her I’ll take care of her drinks, but “don’t miss out on any money while you’re watching the game with us.”  Polite, respectful and honest…(this communicated to her that I understand she is here to work and make money and I want her to do so, even if I’m not spending money on her.) She proceeds to sit with us for the whole game.  

At half time dancers do 15 second “dollar dances” for guys watching the game. While other guys are spending 20 singles on 15 second dollar dances with different strippers, this dancer is all over me for the full 15 minutes…there is lots of touching…right up to the legal limits. We even kissed and made out during the half time show… And I didn’t pay her a thing.  I was simply polite had conversation and communicated clearly and respectfully.  This went on every Monday Night Football Game for the 2017 and 2018 seasons.  I did buy her drinks and would tip her $40 each week at the end of the night. (Probably wasn’t necessary but seemed appropriate.) I won a 49ers Jersey one week and gave it to her.  That’s it…and we became friends and have gotten together outside the club. She’s been to my home. She personally delivers a Christmas present to me on Christmas Day.  I paid no asshole tax and got more for less by being a gentleman.  You should do and expect the same.

BOTTOM LINE:  DON’T BE AN ASSHOLE..IT COSTS YOU MONEY AND PLEASURE
