STRIPPED IN STRIPPING

MOVIES ARE ALWAYS MAKING THE LIFE OF AN EXOTIC DANCER SO EXCITING, IT DOES NOT SHOW WHAT IT STRIPS YOU OF. THE DRUGS AND ALCOHOL ABUSE, THE AMOUNT OF WOMEN THAT HAVE BEEN RAPED, THE DESTRUCTION OF RELATIONSHIPS AND MARRIAGES.

I WAS EARLY 20'S WHEN I FIRST HIT THE STAGE AND PRETTY LIT BECAUSE I COULD NOT STOMACH THE IDEA OF STEPPING ON THAT STAGE SOBER. THE IDEA OF ALL THESE MEN STARING AT ME, PUTTING THEIR HANDS ON ME. MOST OF THE MEN WERE YOUNG NAVY GUYS SO IT WASN'T LIKE THESE WERE DIRTY MEN, I JUST FELT SICK STILL. AS A GIRL RAISED IN HER CHURCH, I FELT DIRTY AND KNEW WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO WAS AGAINST EVERYTHING I HAD GROWN UP BELIEVING. IT DID NOT TAKE LONG FOR ME TO CATCH IN AND BECOME MORE SOCIAL AND OPEN. I BECAME HOOKED ON THE ATTENTION, HOOKED ON ALL EYES ON ME. IT MADE ME FEEL BEAUTIFUL BUT AS TIME WOULD GO ON, I WOULD FEEL LIKE A SEX OBJECT AND HATE THE LIFE I HAD JOINED.
