#246 - The Other Side of Strip Club Culture with Dahlia

***TRIGGER WARNING: Mention of sexual assault, kidnapping, pimping, physical assault.***

We've talked about how much I loved stripping over the years but this year, we will be discussing the complexities of strip club culture. Joining me this week is my guest Dahlia, a former NY-based dancer. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by dancers, the impact of economic changes, and the empowerment that comes from taking control of one's body and choices and the culture of fear that often silences dancers. They highlight the predatory behaviors that can occur within the industry and the struggles dancers face in navigating relationships while maintaining their professional personas. The conversation emphasizes the need for empowerment and the importance of speaking out against injustices in the workplace. We emphasize the need for a humane approach to interactions, the significance of making customers feel valued, and the necessity of setting boundaries when engaging with clients. We also highlights the critical aspects of health and safety, particularly regarding sexual health and the risks associated with extras in the industry. Lastly, we reflect on the evolution of strip club culture, the accessibility of sex work through platforms like OnlyFans, and their personal journeys within the industry. The conversation highlights the camaraderie and struggles faced by dancers, emphasizing the need for self-care and awareness in a challenging environment.
