Many of you will already have visited a strip club, and there are various dos and don’ts that must be adhered to regarding lap dances during stag weekends or any other visit. Remember that the girls are professionals, and they are working to earn their money and live their lives. Everyone deserves to be treated respectfully, so we ask that you to comply with the etiquette and we will ensure you have a good time. Here are the most important dos and don’ts:

DO:

Tip the dancers: This may seem like a no-brainer, but there are many who don’t do it. An exotic dancer is an entertainer, and it is not an easy job. If you are happy to tip waiters and bartenders who simply bring you food or pour your drinks, you can give a dancer some money. She’ll give you some attention, and she’ll move on – it’s a simple concept. Oh, and don’t tip with loose change!

Be respectful: You’re not at the ballet, but don’t treat people as if they are beneath you in some way. Stag party packages are supposed to be fun for everyone, and every dancer is a hard-working girl with feelings and desires. Don’t treat people in a derogatory way, just be respectful and have a good time.

DON’T:

Touch the dancers: If they want any physical contact, they will initiate it in an appropriate way. Don’t touch the dancers, even for a hug or a high-five, unless it is initiated by them, or you could find yourself being removed from the premises.

Buy hire a lapdance for someone who doesn’t want one: When dances get up close and personal, it can be uncomfortable for some. A private dance may seem like a great stag party idea, but if the bachelor doesn’t want it then the whole experience will be uncomfortable for everyone, including the dancer.

Take photographs: This is prohibited at strip clubs to protect the dancers, among other things. Breaking this rule is another way to get yourself thrown out quickly, so keep your smartphone camera turned off and focus on enjoying yourself in the moment.

If you visit a strip club, please keep these basic etiquette tips in mind throughout your night. It could save you money, it could save you from injury, and it could save you from humiliation. Take it from the pros: there are rules at strip clubs, and you need to follow them.
