‘You got a purdy mouth.’
“Your girlfriend’s got a great ass,” Rh. said to me barside around 1am.
“Yeah—But she’s not my girlfriend,” I correctly kindly, mixed between surprised and scared. It was odd that suddenly we were being viewed as a couple, when we are still getting to know each other! But also somewhat validating, insofar as coworker recognition.
It is still a pleasant surprise, though, especially considering our barback’s reaction, how open-minded a strip club can really be—how people can really be.
In this same ‘heteronormative’ space, where clients will as soon ask about your girlfriend as boyfriend, many of the dancers are equally as open, regardless of their orientation or religion. In a way, I simply hadn’t expected it.
