Sapphire Nightclub & Strip Club

For the concert review assignment, I decided to critique the dance, fantasy factor, and sex appeal of erotic entertainment in Las Vegas’ strip club Sapphire. I made my decision to visit a striptease revue because it is an industry that surrounds the majority of the city I live in and one I pay little-to-no attention to. I thought by experiencing one of Las Vegas’ most respected erotic dance clubs that I could gain a more positive outlook on such venues that are stamped as degrading by society. With that being said, I ventured off this past Friday night, April 26th, with three of my female roommates to see what all the hype was about.
If first-class erotic fantasy is what you're looking for, Sapphire had it plus more. Just by walking in, I noticed that this place was more than any other Las Vegas strip club. This place was enormous! And with such large stages, bars, and seating arrangements spread across the club, I noticed the abundance of performers and strippers dancing and working the floor. With this many girls, I can safely say that Sapphire had the most diverse amount of dancers than any strip club I been to before that are ready to entertain anyone and everyone who walks through their doors.
When we finally got through the strict door security, the main arena submerges you into another world where beauty, lasers, sexual pleasures, and music are infused into one and your mind is put on a psychedelic roller coaster ride. Even being escorted to our table by a busty, young hostess was an experience all in itself. My roommate said it best, “There are SO many boobies in my face that I must have. Don’t judge me on the decisions I make tonight!” Remember, this is a female saying this, not a male.
After settling in and grabbing a few drinks I grabbed a brochure about the club to get more insight on what the club provides. Although difficult to concentrate with all of the beautiful nude women around I

    The struggle between strip club owners and city officials is not exactly a new development. Year after year, in cities all across the nation, club owners are facing city council members working to issue new zoning regulations. A major US Supreme Court case, which happened in 1991 and was Barnes v. Glen Theatre, Inc., laid the foundation for future cases because of its decision. Ultimately it ruled that the state had the right to regulate the use of expressive conduct, and in Justice Souter’s words, “nudity itself is not inherently expressive conduct.” (Barnes) Souter was merely saying that it wasn’t an issue of being nude, but one of being nude and dancing erotically. This paved the way for more cities to go after club owners and force them to ensure their performers were wearing a proper amount of clothing. Scott Lindsay, co-owner of the Godfather…

    For eight single professional women gathered in Dallas, it is holy Wednesday — the night each week that they gather in one of their homes for the Traveling Bachelorette Party. Munching snacks and passing a bottle of wine, they cheer, cry and cackle as their spiritual leader, Trista Rehn, braves heartache, indecision and the occasional recitation of bad poetry to choose from among her 25 swains. Yet something is unsettling Leah Hudson's stomach, and it's not just the wine. "I hate that we've been sucked into the Hoover vac of reality TV," says Hudson, 30. "Do we not have anything better to do than to live vicariously through a bunch of 15-minute-fame…

    Some of these places charged an admission fee which included light refreshments while other places had free admission with the sale of tea and/or liquor. Many people began to visit these places regularly to partake in the festivities of dancing and drinking freely and legally, without the fear of judgment. This new dance craze set the precedent for the first stars of the cabaret. Prior to the time of the dance craze, those who wished to dance and drink had to do so in private settings, away from the public, to avoid being…

    Bouncers Evaluation

    • 1251 Words
    • 6 Pages

    I feel that the main message in the performance was how women in a clubbing society have changed in these modern times, the message is shown from a male point of view. The theme wasn’t discussed with any of the characters other than the four bouncers, in particular Lucky Eric, who would focus on the subject in his monologues. I think Godber used the play to show that young girls are misguided by looking for sex, when they go out clubbing. When delivering this message, the characters would look at the audience and make gestures at them. Secondly I feel that there was another smaller message too, and that was how bouncers don’t get the credit they need and the certain drawbacks to the job.…

    1988 was a great year for Larry Flynt, the publisher of a highly criticized magazine called, “Hustler.” This magazine was unlike any of its predictors, such as Playboy. While sexuality was on the rise, so were “new” ways to do it. Hustlers’ publisher, Larry Flynt was merely exposing what people were already doing. This does not mean that everyone had the same sexual desires as everyone else, but he did become popularized by certain “hardcore” sexually active persons. While he became a hero amongst some, there seems to have been more against what Flynt was doing. It has been documented that even some of his staff did not agree, saying that he was making men out to be rapists, and making comparisons to men being like “stud bulls,” wanting to have sex with “everything in sight.”…

    Cellar is right downtown and it is only ten minutes walking from the Mountainlair, so it is really easy for everyone wanting to get there. The place doesn’t look really big in the front, but has big dance floor in the basement. Cellar is on a one-way street full of speeding cars and drunken people, I think it is a great place to have a club there. Because people can easily get to it, a lot of students go there on Thursday. They have a huge bar for 21 year olds that are for the people who want to drink. Mostly the dance floor is for young people.…

    An extremely interesting, but ever-contradictory sociological study of sexual relationsis presented in the Kathy Peiss book Cheap Amusements . The reason I say that it is ever-contradictory is that the arguments are presented for both the benefit of cheap amusements for a woman s place in society and for the reinforcement of her place. In one breath, Peiss says that mixed-sex fun could be a source of autonomy and pleasure as well as a cause of [a woman s] continuing oppression. The following arguments will show that, based on the events and circumstances described in Cheap Amusements , the changes in the…

    People socially construct sexuality just as they create the rest of the reality they experience. The symbolic interaction analysis highlights the variable meanings people attach to sexuality. In Dreamworlds 3 Jhally opens the documentary with the observation that music videos are forms of advertisements and these images of sexual female characters in music videos enhances the productivity. Thus these music videos, like other forms of advertising, rely heavily on storytelling and sexual imagery to fulfill the function of selling merchandise. Jhally demonstrates the growth of sexual imagery through the use of women of these music videos. Furthermore, Jhally demonstrates that these music videos cast women as money hungry sex objects by exploiting them to all genres of music. It is clear that women’s bodies have formed a purpose as important advertising tools, however producers of these music videos fail to see the influence of their work on our culture and how…

    Third Wave Feminism

    • 1678 Words
    • 7 Pages

    Third-wave feminism has become synonymous with sex-positivity and the empowering nature of sexual activity. Sex-positivity has been defined as: “a celebration of sexuality as a positive aspect of life, with a broader definition of what sex means and what oppression and empowerment may imply in the context of sex.” This emergence of sexual positivity has created friction in the past, with ‘the feminist sex wars’ splitting feminists into liberal and radical camps. Despite this, the third-wave and sex-positive movement has continued and has gone as far as to encourage the consumption and creation of ‘feminist porn’ as a loose resource of discovering one’s sexuality. As described by Shine Houston, a founder and producer for Pink and White productions…

    The Don and Ada Rice Wing, Folk Art and Furniture were an unusual surprise. It was not at all what I had expected. Everything is displayed like you are in a classy antique furniture store. All the furniture is place on stage like settings and should not be touched. I felt like I was in my grandmother’s house. It was cool because it was really unlike to expected norm. The paperweight collection was like something out of a collector’s book. It had absolutely everything you could think of. From bug weights to beads to actual flowers. It just showed me what art could be like even if you use the sample things around…
