Stripping and Femdom

Stripping and Femdom

A question: is it possible that going to a strip club to watch the dancers is a valid way for a male sub to worship and appreciate the power and sexuality of the Goddess? Or are stripclubs places of patriarchal control and exploitation? As a submissive male I have strong feelings of powerlessness and enter something of a trancelike on the presence of a pole dancer. But is this a genuine manifestation of the Goddess? I have heard some sex work positive dommes say that it is. What do others think?

To boil it down: can stripping be a kind of femdom?

gillesderais,
When they are stacking the bills up in their cache, they can be and call themselves anything they want.

My goodness, do what you want. If you like it, enjoy that place. "patriarchal control", lol ... don't make your life so complicated.

I personally don't really enjoy strip clubs, and while I see what the O.P is getting at, I would have to disagree, and this is why.

Goddess Worship implies some kind of two way intimate relationship. The key being, two-way. Throwing money at a pole dancer is neither two way or is it intimate. The patrons at the club are nothing more than cash cows, a source of income to be exploited and milked for every last dollar. And for the girls, dancing is nothing more than a job; it's a chore to them. Despite what they may pretend, many of them do not take any particular pleasure in what they do. It would be like one of us designing cable and lighting systems, balancing budgets, processing invoices, serving french fries, or doing whatever else it is people do for a living.

In other words, true Goddess Worship implies that someone truly enjoys being worshipped in a one on one intimate setting, as opposed to gyrating for dollars on a stage surrounded by other dudes. Despite what you may enjoy, it is, in my opinion, too shallow to really be called goddess worship or any form of femdom.

However, I say this with no disrespect intended to those women who work as exotic dancers, who do feel empowered to do what they do and/or who truely enjoy doing what they do. Nor do I intend any disrespect to the original poster, either. It isn't my scene, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy what you enjoy.

Are any of the strip clubs in your area dancer-owned co-ops? Seattle used to have one called The Lusty Lady that lasted for a while and was located across the street from the Seattle Art Museum.

If there are any pole dancing competitions in your region, maybe switch your attention to those instead.

Sasa,

I have missed your true down to Earth sweet common sense.
