The Strip Clubs of Instagram. Going digital may be better for dancers

Not sure how you can operate a 'strip' club on a platform where nudity is banned.

By making a new handle every day, apparently.

The weird thing is that camshows are a long established industry, so running them through a physical strip club is extremely skeuomorphic.

Yep Tinder only works if you’re genetically gifted. The other side sees a picture of you and in some milliseconds their brain decides, left or right.

Works for some people, for some people it’s a trap “nobody really likes me?” and goes downhill from there. Tinder can be very shallow.

Please Say Sike - coming from an old Magic City Patron (Atlanta)

Does anyone have tips for blocking content like this on Instagram? There seem to be limited content controls on Instagram.

I wish I could see what this looks like, I'm having trouble imagining how it all works.

It is easier to see this working on Tinder. You just have to get a gold subscription and virtually land on the more exotic destinations of our planet and within 5 minutes you are good to go.

Could you elaborate pls?

Basically you can make tinder gold account then you can use passport feature to select destination like Dubai, where you'll match with many strippers or escort.

But I still believe unless you are model looking dude, you'll not get many matches from good women on tinder.

Only way to meet girls open to wild experiences (for free - without paying for expensive dinner or gifts) is to meet girls who are traveling and you must be a traveller too.

Uh or just be a friendly, sociable person with at least something to offer. I'm also confused why you would need to use Tinder to find sex workers online, I'm sure there are plenty on there but why not just go on like Twitter?

Parent poster has an idiosyncratic definition of "good".

By good, i mean good looking and attractive to me.

>. I'm also confused why you would need to use Tinder to find sex workers online

This in response to some guy who was talking about strippers.

>Uh or just be a friendly, sociable person with at least something to offer

Doesn't work on tinder, you've to be extremely good looking to get matches from good looking girls.

Parent comment says "strippers or escort" (sp). Escort is a nice/legal term for a prostitute. "Strippers" (they're typically called dancers actually) also fall under the umbrella term "sex worker" though, for the record.

Here's a PG-13 recorded session from "Quarantine Radio" with rapper Megan Thee Stallion:

Oh thank you! I love seeing how people use technology in new and unintended ways.
