I hate strip clubs/lap dancing places/vvhoring/topless waitresses. I used to get off on it when I was younger but then I lived in a red light district and got to know some of the girls a bit. It put me off the whole thing, can't explain why as I don't understand it.
I just felt uncomfortable and not in the least bit horny. The girls are just earning a living and good on them (and looking at their tips glasses they were making a bloody good living). I hate that atmos and the way men in those places act.0 -

It would be interesting to discuss ramifications of health problems on dressing with someone working for a tip. I expect they'd move on quite quickly if you were also watching the cricket. It depends how easily distracted from the cricket you I are I guess.
I suspect that if I'd put a bra on one of the girls it wouldn't have made me hugely popular with the rest of the clientele.
Maybe this was an equal opportunities thing. Get a bunch of women together who can't dress themselves who have pert breasts and give them work that is normally quite badly paid.0 -

For 12 years, and now they've a kid, they've not got round to addressing the difference of opinion on it.
My sister was in that situ. Her husband grew up elsewhere and wanted to go back, they took 15 years to decide to stay here.Mrs Generali is 'mummy', she insists on it. As a result The Girl winds her up by calling her Mum.
I've been clear that the Generalissimos can call me Gen, Generali, Mr Generali, Daddy or Dad as they see fit. As a result they always, always call me Daddy.
We never called my father, Dad. He had a pet name for as long as I can remember. After he passed away, I was on the phone to some company changing the account over and the CA asked if I knew the password. I asked the family, "anyone know what XXX's password would be?" CA said that was right - turned out the petname was the password for a lot of things.LydiaJ wrote:I know a mother of twins who did it and said it was fine, although you do have to drink a lot of fluids. She was a SAHM, though - I'm not sure you'd be able to pump enough if you were going back to work and expressing.
My worry would be night feeds, does one twin waking up mean you wake the other to feed at the same time?I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

No, no, wasn't suggesting that, was suggesting lack of interest banter when they were approaching for tips, and you're just trying to watch the cricket. They are entitled to work how they are working.
Sadly, big breasts left unsupported for a period of time are no longer that pert.. If I could go everywhere with both hands up in the air we'd be getting somewhere :rotfl:.
If I ever lose weight I'm guessing I'll be having a boob reduction / uplift thingy.
