Of course. If you want a second date.

Why would you consider treating any woman other than as a lady?

I dunno, @Mr_Callahan, those Chippendales guys seem pretty big. Might hurt you if you treat them “like ladies”. Choke you with a bowtie or something.

Are you expecting them to be “on the clock” during your date? Of course you should treat them like ladies.

I think all women on a date would like to be treated like a lady. Especially if they are a stripper by profession and get treated like meat on a regular basis. On the other hand, if she enjoys her work she might enjoy a bit of sluttery. I think it would be best to get to know her before assuming anything.

You KNOW any stripper that reads this would say “No need to worry about it. No stripper would date you”.

Mr_Callahan's avatar

Ching,ching , sorry SirBailey, too late.

@Mr_Callahan did she tell you she really liked you? you’re not like the other guys in the Champagne Room? “You’re so nice, and they’re so mean and rude.”?

I think its love epony, she keeps rubbing my goldcard.

No. Women are second-class citizens, anyway. Strippers are even a step below that. They have no feelings and are barely human. Don’t worry about treating them well. ~x INFINITY

I disagree. All people, including women and strippers have feelings and should be treated with respect.

eponymoushipster's avatar

@MacBean so, it’s OK if they cry the whole night?~

I cannot believe this question was even asked. If you had to ask this question you definitely do not deserve to go on dates with any women no matter what profession they have!

It is probably even more important to treat her like a lady. I would imagine, after spending all day catering to the worst that mankind had to offer, it might get hard to believe that men have amy redeeming qualities. Dating a decent guy who actually treats her like a human being with dignity and respect could go a long way to help her keep her perspective.

Easy sjmc, its a hypothetical pole dancer thang….get a grip girl.

sjmc1989's avatar

@Mr_Callahan So whats hypothetical about it? You must have not known the answer to it so that just means your not a true gentleman if you can live with that so can I because I don’t have to live with you. You on the other hand has to.

Frankly, I think exotic dancers should be treated like policemen, and of course, you should be treated like a con.

whatthefluther's avatar

yes (So you are dating a stripper. And apparently you always date strippers. Are you seeking approval or do you want to be applauded? Is there are part of you that thinks there is a problem here? I suggest you start listening, attentively, to that part of you. Oh yeah, in case you were wondering, I am not in the least impressed).

MacBean's avatar

@eponymoushipster You notice when they cry? Pfft. Grow a dick, man. ~

eponymoushipster's avatar

@MacBean i just splash some champagne on their faces and don’t look down when it happens. they seem to enjoy that.~

Mr_Callahan's avatar

Just a question to spice up your day, no one is dating a stripper…have some champagne on me.

cak's avatar

@Mr_Callahan – It’s just the thought of this hypothetical question that is just kind of wrong. Even if it truly hasn’t crossed your mind, someone out there probably does think they don’t need to be treated as a lady. It’s just a very wrong theory and a distasteful hypothetical question.

Mr_Callahan's avatar

I disagree Cak because believe me every man who dates a woman who undresses and dances nude or partially nude for men ponders these thoughts, I know a few. I personally have never dated a stripper, but have met a few and I’m always a gentleman. These girls from my experience do not expect to be treated like ladies, they understand the nature of the business. ( unfortunately )

cak's avatar

@Mr_Callahan – Then you need to learn to separate the stripper from the person. She acts on stage. She’s a real person in life. Yes, you treat her like a lady, whether they expect it or not. The guys that don’t…they aren’t men. They are just little boys pretending to be men.

sjmc1989's avatar

They might not expect it but you should never question whether or not you should treat anyone with less respect because of their profession.

@sjmc1989

Even politicians?

Mr_Callahan's avatar

sjmc: If the profession involves unladylike behavior, then i think it is fair to question it.

sjmc1989's avatar

@Buttonstc…...Well there are a few exceptions :)

@Mr Callahan I don’t feel that how someone acts while they are at work should make you treat them in an “unladylike” manner. Im sure there are plenty of women with very respectable jobs that act very “unladylike” in their “real life’s” but you don’t question whether or not you treat them like a lady.

I fell in love with a stripper one night
– he was beautiful!

A lady is supposed to be modest though, and a stripper generally loses her modesty along with her clothes…

Mr_Callahan's avatar

sjmc; I never proposed or suggested that strippers be treated in an unladylike manner, but simply asked if it were appropriate to treat them like ladies when their behavior/profession is clearly unladylike. Personally, I treat all women with respect, but thats just me.

sjmc1989's avatar

@Mr_Callahan Well I guess I get what you are asking and I’m really glad to hear that you are respectful.

Mr_Callahan's avatar

A lady is like a flower, we just need to navigate around the thorns.

ItsAHabit's avatar

Of course you should treat them like ladies.
