Strip Club: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

 

A '''Strip Club''' is an establishment where attractive people (usually female, although places with male strippers are not uncommon) disrobe on scene for the pleasure of the paying public, often while doing erotic dances and other sex-charged stunts. A staple of the [[Red Light District]] and the [[Wretched Hive]].

 

{{examples}}

== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==

 

== [[Comic Books]] ==

* In ''[[Sin City]]'', the scenes in strip clubs are depicted in all their naked, graphic glory. The film adaptation is way more modest.

* [[Brian Azzarello]]'s ''[[Joker (graphic novel)|Joker]]'' has one run by a former Joker associate, and [[Harley Quinn]] even briefly acts as a stripper at one point.

 

== [[Film]] ==

* In ''[[Shazam! (film)|Shazam!]]'', one of the first things Billy does as Shazam is [[Power Perversion Potential|enter a strip club]], coming out with some buffalo chicken wings. {{spoiler|He ends up there again with the rest of his adopted family when they try to escape Dr. Sivana}}.

* In ''[[Striptease (film)|Striptease]]'', protagonist Erin Grant begins to work at a strip club called Eager Beaver to afford an appeal for the custody of her daughter, and gets involved with a blackmail plot against a politician who likes her dances too much. Most of the movie is a [[Black Comedy]], thanks to the antics her co-workers get up to.

 

== [[Live-Action TV]] ==

== [[Music]] ==

* The song "Next Contestant" by [[Nickelback]] describes the boyfriend of a stripper seeing her accosted by her clients, and itching to beat up the ones who go too far.

 

== [[Professional Wrestling]] ==

* [[CM Punk]]'s Falls Count Anywhere heavyweight championship match with Homicide at ''FIP'' Fallout Night 2 ends up in a strip club called Lil Tootsie's at one point. CM Punk eventually calls one of the strippers "a whooore" as the fight goes on, and one of the announcers agrees with him.

 

== [[Video Games]] ==

* Rise's dungeon in ''[[Persona 4]]'' is modeled after a strip club, and features many female-shaped monsters who move suggestively and [[Orgasmic Combat|moan when attacked]], as well as moving silhouettes of pole dancers on the walls. Despite no actual nudity being shown, this dungeon avoids being a [[Bikini Bar]] due to the super-sketchy decoration of the place and the complete sleaziness of its final boss Shadow Rise, who constantly talks in sexual innuendo and very often promises to take off the minimal golden bikini she wears - the only reason she doesn't is because Rise rejects her just in time, prompting her Shadow self's monstrous transformation.

* [[Wolverine]]'s ending in ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]'' has him going into a strip club to drink and decompress. Then he notices that the girl calling him from the pole is [[Darkstalkers|Morrigan]]...
