Strip Club reveals the intimate working lives of not just the women up on stage, but also the patrons and other workers who make the place run: the owner-manager, bartenders, dejays, doormen, bouncers, housemoms, and cocktail waitresses.Price-Glynn spent fourteen months at The Lion’s Den working as a cocktail waitress, and her uncommonly deep access reveals a conflict-ridden workplace, similar to any other workplace, one where gender inequalities are reproduced through the everyday interactions of customers and workers. Taking a novel approach to this controversial and often misunderstood industry, Price-Glynn draws a fascinating portrait of life and work inside the strip club.Intersections.Sex-oriented businessesSocial aspectsUnited StatesCase studiesStripteasersUnited StatesCase studiesPower (Social sciences)Case studiesSex roleCase studiesElectronic books.Sex-oriented businessesSocial aspectsStripteasersPower (Social sciences)Sex role306.77Price-Glynn Kim1057574MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459782703321Strip club2492993UNINA
