505 0  Introduction: a typical shift -- Studying strip club work 
       : context and perspective -- "Keeping the dancers in 
       check": the gendered organization of stripping in the 
       Lion's Den -- "It's a nice place to hide and it's safe": 
       the making of masculinities in the Lion's Den -- Tradeoffs
       and troubles : Managing stripping labor -- Dollar dances 
       and stage dances: strippers and economic exploitation. 
520    From the publisher. Stripper chic is in these days: you 
       can watch celebrities "strippercize" on Oprah or do it 
       yourself at your local gym, but this popular face of 
       stripping hides another side of the industry, one that is 
       far less glamorous. In Strip Club, Kim Price-Glynn takes 
       us behind the scenes at The Lion's Den, a rundown club 
       where women are compelled to strip out of economic need 
       rather than as a means of liberation, and a place where 
       strippers' stories often reflect drudgery and dismay. 
       Strip Club reveals the intimate working lives of not just 
       the women up on stage, but also the patrons and other 
       workers who make the place run: the owner-manager, 
       bartenders, deejays, doormen, bouncers, housemoms, and 
       cocktail waitresses. Price-Glynn spent fourteen months at 
       The Lion's Den working as a cocktail waitress. Her 
       uncommonly deep access reveals a conflict-ridden workplace
       fueled by competing interests and agendas and 
       stereotypical ideas about women, men, sexuality, race, 
       labor, and economic value. Full of rich insights into the 
       world of a single club, Price-Glynn argues that the club 
       environment reproduces gender inequalities through the 
       everyday interactions of customers and workers as well as 
       the broader organizational structure and culture of the 
       modern day workplace. Taking a novel approach to this 
       controversial and often misunderstood industry, Price-
       Glynn draws a fascinating portrait of life and work inside
       the strip club.
