This is a repost of the first section of a story I previously had taken down.
All characters are 18 or older.
This is fiction.
This was written by me. It is my work that I own.

There are a few rules you have to follow when you live the life of a male stripper. The first one is obvious. Don't tell anyone that's what you do. For some reason guys who don't have the kind of body needed to be a male stripper will accuse those who do of being gay. So I take my clothes off in front of women who are hungry to get a peek at my cock but somehow that makes me gay. And of course telling parents is a big no no. Sure, they grew up in the generation that spawned the hippies and free love and any number of STDs but they're going to judge me. Sorry, not on my watch. They can keep their woodstock and their ideology. I'm just in it for the cash. And just to be sure I don't accidentally get recognized outside of work, I always wear one of those full wrestler masks. I have a future after this after all.
That brings me to the second rule of being a stripper. You have to know your boundaries. You have to tell the people you work for up front what you are and are not willing to do. If you don't then they'll assume you're ok with stripping for a room full of dudes and I am definitely not cool with that no matter how much more it pays. Also, a lot of ladies, especially those over 40 will just assume they are entitled to your man bits. They aren't going to listen if we tell them no but they will recognize hand signals. Put two fingers up to make an X and they know to back off.
The third rule, at least for me, is always go for the cash. Believe it or not but if a male stripper does not get completely naked, they actually earn more money. If you go full Monty for them, suddenly instead of giving you a tip so they can reach under your waistband and get a feel they are just grabbing at you without paying. When we survey them afterwards a lot of ladies tell us that with the guy getting so much love they just figured that was his reward. Sorry, I don't get turned on by having women I don't know and would never date try to ineptly stroke me. A lot of guys in the business just can't help themselves, though so I often get paired up with one of them who will go all out so they can get a blow job. The room tends to split then with me taking the ladies who want to pay and the other guy just getting his blow job and then going out of commission for the rest of the night.
Rule number four is be consistent. If you let one lady do something then you have to let them all do it or they complain. If you decide to give one girl a kiss on the cheek then you better be prepared to kiss every cheek presented to you. If you let one girl suck you, then you better let them all suck you no matter how old, ugly, or fat they are. That isn't just per party either. The company will recommend a guy based on what the customers say they want the guy to do. If a guy is known for licking pussy and letting ladies ride his cock then he better put out for the next party because that's what they paid for. I've been consistent with no full nudity and no oral sex since I started in this business two years ago and so if a party hires me then they know I won't agree to that and the pressure is off.
That brings me to the last rule. I made this rule up recently, well, ... sort of. You have to know when to get out. I got into this business by chance and found it was a great way to earn the money I needed to buy the engagement ring I knew my girlfriend wanted. This isn't my full time job and I don't see myself doing this and hiding it from her after we get married. I have a lot of appreciation for all the money I've made. This business has allowed me to save up a down payment on a house, funded this extravagant wedding my fiancΓ©e wants, and payed off the note on my car. I'm happy and I'm done. In another two weeks I'm getting married and then my regular job will have to take care of us because I won't be letting random women feel my dick anymore.
"So, when's the bachelor party?" my boss asked me when I handed him my formal resignation letter. I know I'm a male stripper but they operate it just like any other business. There's probably something about that fact that some smart person should get really angry about but like I said I was just in it for the cash.
"I'm not having one." I said.
"What? Sayeth WHAT?"
"Sarah and I agreed it is a silly tradition that will just cause arguments after we're married."
"You been working here all this time and you still ain't learn. You know she getting hers. Bachelorette parties are our craziest customers."
"She's not having one of those either."
"Please, I don't believe that."
"No, really. She's much too conservative and intelligent for all that."
"I thought you said you loved this girl but now it sounds like she just got you whipped."
"No, we have a sincere and meaningful relationship."
"If that's true then where's the trust? The whole bachelor party thing isn't about the guy getting a chance to score some pussy. It's about his girl knowing that he can be around sexy strippers who get naked and throw themselves at him but he will be true to his woman and forsake all others when it's time to say vows."
"You got that out of your brochure."
"And Tim, I believe every word of it. Let me make a call. I can have five, six, seven hot naked girls all over you in a heartbeat. If you don't want to do nothing with them, that's fine. You can watch them take care of each other."
"I appreciate the offer but considering all the times I've been surrounded by women I think I'll pass."
"Aw man, that don't count. You got to flip the script on it. You keep your clothes and let them get naked."
"Really. I'm fine. Really."
"Man, don't do this to me. If you ain't going to let me go to your wedding then at least let me do this for you. If you think your girl will be mad then just let me talk to her. We'll set up one for her too and I'll personally make sure it doesn't' get out of hand."
