also on the same note I have seen guys flash a wad of cash to buy drinks and think that buying a girl drinks etc is all that matters and then leaqve without so much as buying a dance.....money doesnt equal kisses...and drinks certainly don't pay my rent. think of how you would act of you wanted to send snog-signals to a girl you were out on a date with...be polite..make some nice (not creepy) eye contact...genuinely listen...compliment her on her body while shes dancing for you (a big confidence booster for us) Sometimes guys just stare forward and I wanna say "are you there??". it sounds like hogwash but a guy's perspective on passion and a girl's perspective on passion sometimes are two different things and perhaps if a lady is putty in your hands the heat could get turned up a notch in your favor. but then again...what do i know? lol...j/k

I've mentioned this before in another thread but i think aside from whats already been said its just a general rule to let the lady be in control of the kissing if its gonna happen... another thing that really turns me off is when a customer grabs the back of my head and holds me down into the kiss (should I decide to give one)....this is not cool because since we'd normally have to be discreet about kissing its important that we can pull away when we need to. sit back relax and enjoy the experience and you'll have a great time

there is a burlesque show tonight at Yuk Yuks on Elgin! last minute I know! I'm actually going to be in this one in the first set!! its only $10 and the show starts at 9pm ends at 11pm. its a findraiser for Movember so i thought I'd post it here too....doors open at 8pm heres the event info! https://www.facebook.com/events/447579888627807/

lol...i love using the term first world problems...not sure if someone already posted this but its worth a laugh ;) (safe for work)

i am eating one of the brownies for breakfast right now (yes I'm bad)...I gave my other one to a girl at a burlesque show around the corner from the social...awesome time, Thanks you Angela for pulling off yet another seamless social!....so great to meet everyone!...now I go back to hangover-land, lol

wheee! so excited! TONIGHT!! :-D

Any of the Andy Whitfield Spartacus series is awesome...theres also a series that follows that is a prequel to that season and its amazing.

as it turns out I may be finding myself traveling to Montreal or part of the Labour-day long weekend as part of a music festival. as I'd like to probably work when I'm there, I'm wondering i there is any interest from the Montreal gents who can't make the trek to Ottawa to see me? I've also thought about taking a day and testing my luck dancing at one of the strip-clubs but I'm fearing the language barrier as my french is okay...but not when it comes to dancing lingo....plus I think you need a license in Montreal?

hi guys (and gals)....so i decided to take it upon myself to start a burlesque social group where members can post events going on in their city or just post about burlesque etc...there seems to be at least one going on every week! heres the link to the group! only members can see its contents..and theres another show going on tonight at the rainbow too! http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/group.p...#gmessage19364

hi guys and gals! with all the burlesque shows goin on in and around ottawa and the growing popularity of Burlesque as an art, I've decided to create a social group for those who love this vintage art-form. members can see where to go see a good show in their city, or just plain post about their love for Burlesque. Its stripping down...with class, its humour, its naughty, its beautiful, its Burlesque! wooh! http://www.cerb.ca/vbulletin/group.php?groupid=161

while I would agree that the ladies (like myself) at the playmate are up for doing couple's dances....it is VERY hard to squish two people in one chair in the CR there....I've given a couple a dance there and its beyond awkward cuz we have no couches there.

generally speaking $20 a song for a one on one...are you going to be getting couples-dances though? some girls will charge a little extra to give a dance for two people but you might luck out and make a connection with a gal who will give you the one-on-one rate. I went once with a friend and the girl charged us $30/song...and she was great, interactive with us both etc....said she would normally charge double for an interactive dance with two people, which when you think about it makes sense.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the fabulous and classy modern pinup/burlesque performer Dita Von Teese. :-)

I thought I would pick this thread up again as I've been attending a lot of Burlesque events lately and they seem to be popping up everywhere these days! There is one happening on Friday at Zaphod's in the market.....the event is called titties for Kitties and is a fundraiser for Westminster Pet Sanctuary, and Hungry and Homeless Cat Rescue. it features dancers singers and variety acts from pretty much every troupe in Ottawa that I can think of! From Capital Tease: Bambi Van Boom From Rockalily: Gypsy Laroux, Helvetica Bold and Rhapsody Blue From The Sin Sisters: Headmistress Holly From Bourbon & Spice: Charlotte Champagne and Jolie Stripes From Browncoats Burlesque: Del Roba and Bessie Mae Mucho From the Ottawa Burlesque Playground: The Mansfield Brothers, Lana Lovecakes, Meena Jatrois, and Bella Barecat Anyway, Looks like its going to be a really good show :-)
