Genuine question for anyone who’s worked in clubs or knows the business:

Do dancers make more money at topless clubs or fully nude clubs?

My gut says fully nude = more money, just because it sounds like a more “premium” experience… but I’ve also heard the opposite, that topless clubs can actually bring in more because:

• alcohol is usually allowed (so people spend way more overall)
• the vibe is more social/party-driven vs. strictly performance
• customers stay longer and keep tipping

On the flip side, I’ve heard fully nude clubs:

• can charge higher entry / dance fees
• might have more focus on private dances
• but sometimes have stricter rules that limit hustle (depending on location)

So now I’m curious what actually matters more in real life:

• alcohol vs. no alcohol
• volume of customers vs. higher ticket spending
• club cut / house fees
• city laws and local culture

If you’ve danced (or worked at a club), what’s been your experience? Is one clearly more profitable, or does it totally depend on the club?

Trying to separate myth from reality here 👀
