Quickie: Male Strippers, Hot or Not?

In a recent conversation, the topic of male strippers came up (actually, this topic comes up in more conversations of mine than you’d think). Being the kind of girl who’s seen Chippendales a few times, I didn’t see anything wrong with hot guys dancing (kind of laughably) in almost no clothing. To me, it’s just one of God’s many gifts.

A friend of mine, however, saw it as the exact opposite. In her opinion, male strippers not only emasculated themselves, but ruined their attractiveness level by attempting to attain the ideal hot guy persona: shaved chest, oiled body, and perfectly manicured hair.

I was shocked and horrified. Male strippers may be hilarious, but denying their hotness seems like a sin. Besides, most people don’t bat an eyelash when it comes to chicks taking off their clothes.

What do YOU think?

    They look gay. The impeccably groomed, half-lidded, campy costumed, foundation-smeared faces… ew. I want to reach out my hand and 1) mess up their hair, 2)rip of the silly little cuffs, 3) slap them to get some kind of expression to emerge on their frozen little faces, and 4)fix their eye-shadow smear. God.

    I agree with their friends. They look like utter tools.

    Gross.

    I’ve never personally experienced one in real life, but the though of a stubbly, oily chest makes me gag. The beefed up look doesn’t really do it for me either. A little muscle isn’t bad, in fact it’s great, but that much is over-kill.

    I prefer either scrawn guys (like Adrian Broady), semi-muscular guys like (Brandon Boyd), or guys with a little fat lol (like Elvis (not super sized -big Mac burger Elvis, but baby-fat cheeks Elvis).

    Guys that are cute, but look more real

    of course I have an attraction to Abraham Lincoln, so you may not want to listen to me too well. :)

    As a whole, I seriously dig the strip club industry. I worked the titty bar circuit for a while and genuinely enjoyed (most of) it. For whatever reason though, that glossy man meat just doesn’t do it for me. Maybe because when blood rushes to OUR naughty bits, there is still enough left for our brains.

    Sorry to break it to you, your opinion is bullshit, women are gift to the world that is why they were created last and look better.

    God actually took time on us girls, guys and girls are just opposite, and you find guys hot because it;s natural you are a girl, as for me i see the truth. you can’t deny women are a 100x hotter than dudes. Im not a lesbian but i prefer looking at a beautiful women than any muscular guy. Women are much more beautiful, but you are blinded with your natural instinct to be attracted to men.

    Amen sister,

    Seeing a hot giy dancing for you and slowly removing his clothes is the most sexy thing ever. All guys should go to the gym and learn to strip.

    I’ve been to a strip club with my bf and they just sit there quietly and clap politely for the special shows, it really was not what i expected it to be.

    I have also been out with the girls and it seems that alot of the girls there go a little bit crazy, and I’m pretty sure the men aren’t allowed to touch female strippers but the male strippers didn’t seem to mind at all…

Tell us what you're thinking...
