Abstract
This article is a descriptive study of the occupation of the nude dancer/stripper. Data were obtained from in‐depth interviews with 57 dancers. These interviews were augmented by 36 extensive in‐depth interviews with nondancers who were also employed at dancing establishments and by observations of interactions within strip clubs. The respondents were employed at a variety of dancing establishments, from more traditional nude dancing or strip clubs to the newer upscale “gentlemen's clubs.” This research investigates the physical and cultural space of the female nude dancer, her performance, her auxiliary roles, and her interactions with customers and other workers in strip clubs.
