Study: 1/3 of New Strippers Are Students—And It Turns Them On

The comely coed stripping her way through college for tuition money is a nudie club tradition/cliché dating back likely to when the very first paying lap experienced the very first professionally administered dance.

Now comes research from the UK that finds that not only are fully one-third of all presently active erotic dancers in England actually students, but that cash is not always their primary motivation. For some, flashing gash is its own reward.

Dr. Kate Hardy, who conducted the study at the University of Leeds, says that many pro peelers—in particular this new influx of collegiate ecdysiasts—take up taking their off clothes for the flexibility of a stripper's schedule, to avoid the doldrums of 9-to-5 work, and also because, more often than you might guess, "This is the job they have always wanted to do and they enjoy the sexual attention they receive."

It's been said that if you love what you do for a living, then every day is a holiday. For the stripper who gets turned on by turning her customers on, no other career could possibly be as thrilling, fulfilling, and—if she's really good at it—spilling.
