Answer 1

It's a matter of what ever makes you happy. If you enjoy doing that good for you. I think no one should interfere with someone's happiness. But if you want to do more good for you, just follow your heart and hopefully everything will be all right.

Answer 2

You are judging success in life by how much money you make. Really, there is a lot more to it than that. You are only 19 and I can understand that suddenly having cash is making a big impression on you right now. But let's look down the road another 19 years. You have lost your teenage looks long ago, and to make the same money you have been doing a lot more than simply take off clothes. What kind of husband will you have that tolerates having a wife who's a hooker? A pimp maybe? What kind of life will your kids have? Will they be proud of you? What will the quality of your life be when you are 45? Will you just be another hard worn old broad who drinks like a fish and has had 5 marriages, all to drunks? What kind of people are you working with now? Will any of them make good parents? When you get older and lose you looks, gain 50 pounds, will they still want to hang out with you?

Life isn't all about money. As you get older, feeling good about yourself becomes as or maybe more important. Being a good parent becomes more important. Being in a loving marriage with a good man becomes more important. Not being drunk all the time is more important. Odds are you will have blown all the money you are now making and you'll be broke anyway.

Instead of using short term thinking, consider some long term thinking. Instead of getting sucked into an unhealthy lifestyle, why not save your money and go to college? Get a degree. Get a lower paying but more stable job that you can work long after your looks are gone. You can meet a good guy, have some great kids. When you are 45 you will feel like you accomplished something and be proud of yourself, instead of sitting in a bar alone at 2 AM, wonder why your life is crap and no one loves you. Wise up before you can't escape. Do you see any older woman in this business who look genuinely happy? Very doubtful.

Bunny;a woman is the most intresting creature in which God himself has made.Perhaps what I'm about to say may never cause you to change your ways but,the fact that aids and everyother illness cleaves to unclean men should be enough not to sell your body.A job that pays you to make money with your mind and hands is much better than on your back(yes).Some day when you can no longer slide down the pole or give these sicko men what they want,then how will you live?
One day you will desire to settle down with a descent man but if you have been rode hard and put up wet all of your life,unable to give forth children who will want you?Bunny,19 ? You can go back to school and make so many good things happen for you.Listen don't take my word just try it,OK

Answer 4

well... its not the most admired work out there but when you really break things down it is good money... You just have to come to grips on what you are willing to sacrifes to make that kind of money... Its cool now but you got to think long term... You can't be a stripper forever... I'm sure you'll have some great stories about it later on in life but I would use this time to come up with a plan on how to use that good money towards a goal that you can be proud of... This way it will be a means to an end and when you are much older it will be an event that people could understand... But you know what... You got to do what you feel,,,Good luck and shake what ya yo mamma gave ya!!!!

Answer 5

I can't believe you are 19 and have been doing that for 3 years!!! I can imagine it is hard to stop something like this especially when you have this income flowing in, but at the end of the day when you look at yourself in the mirror, ask yourself how you feel about yourself, is this what you want until the end of your days, do you respect yourself???? Use the money to go to college and turn your life around, get some self esteem, cause your parents are right, what ever made you do this in the first place was wrong, you Can start all over again if you wanted to. Good luck!

Answer 6

Yes, your a person who has feelings and thoughts, not a sexual toy who gets paid to have sex with random Men, who know what STD's they have or have lied about. Your parents should be worried about your well being. Money is not where happiness comes from, love and other personal interaction is. Your selling yourself as nothing more than someone to sleep with, don't you have any morales or fiber of common sense left in you. Who is gonna love you when you go home at night, or spend an evening drinking coffee while watching a movie. These guys are just sex crazed animals with no life, and you are helping your own addiction as well as theres. I hope you think about what your doing, and where your going to end up in a few years. Make the right decision, and get out before you lost all of your dignity.

Answer 7

I think that you must have no respect for yourself.. the way I look at it, I am not something that money can buy.. life or happiness is not about how much money you make, but about the positive influence that you have on other people, and the good that you can do for the world. Do you think that is a good reputation that you are giving women?! How dare you stoop that low, or think that little of yourself! I'm sure that you have much more potential than that! You should be trying to make a difference for GOOD, not sleep with trashy men that have money!Do you think that they think you are hot? No, they think that you are trashy, and have no respect for you as a person at all. What would you do if it was your daughter doing that? Just a thought... good luck, and I hope that you will make better decisions before its too late!

Answer 8

Your family loves you.If you keep going the way you are,by the time you are 29 you will be all washed up.If you are still alive at that time.You may come across a serial killer,or contract a disease.My advice get a career that you can fall back on.You are not always going to be young,and have your looks.What will you do when you are old and have no looks.No one is going to want you.You will regret not ever learning a trade.I am sure you are a beautiful person with a lot more talent than spreading your legs..Please for me do something with your life.It is also, a sin!

Answer 9

Oh, boy, get out while you can, is this really the life style that you want for yourself? It would not sit very well with me if you were my daughter, Wow you were 16 when you started.
You are obviously questioning the fact that you strip, so why not go and talk with your family and get support and quit stripping ... I cannot understand young girls who only see money and not some of the men in front of them who have no respect for women what so ever, it is degrading. Not to mention the risk of STD's or even being stalked by some nutter like someone listed on here.
Money is not everything, there are other ways... hopefully your family will be supportive of you if you go to them.

Answer 10

Yea they should and you already know it. You know you are not doing the right thing but you want someone to tell you that you are right and your family is wrong. Sorry not today. Is this all you feel you are worth? What happens when your looks go and you can't work the pole anymore. You could still sell yourself but it will be for less and less money and you are gonna have to do more and more degrading things to make even that. we are not even gonna talk about all the risk of disease and the chance of becoming the next gruesome headline. Listen to your family, you know they are right.

Answer 11

Selling yourself is wrong on so many different levels, but if she doesn't see anything wrong with it, tell her to do it for herself. She is worth more than the few dollars she gets. She is obviously a beautiful woman who can be anything. After a while, she will be too old or used and will need to do something to secure a future for herself. Tell her not to let her potential go to waste. Tell her she is better than any amount of money anyone can offer herself. She deserves respect -from others as well as herself.
