You need a license to strip in the states? here you just walk into a club and ask for a job, you can do what ever kind of "entertainment " you want too as long as you pay your taxes.
A friend of mine went to a dance like that tonight. They are popular where I live. I really do not like going to places like that in general, but then again I would not have been able to join them even if I wanted to. He went with a friend that can not stand to have me around because he always feels like he has to compete with me to get the girls attention when I am around. Ohhh... Well I really do not care one way or the other. Good luck with your dancing. I hope it is fun for you. Remember to stay out of the sunlight though.
