Views on Bikini Waitressing

[glassless_mind]

Thanks for the opinions. I will watch out for sleazebags : )

In some ways I'm not sure anyone is being exploited. I'm doing this willingly, having fun doing it and paying the bills. The customers are usually lonely men who want someone to talk to for a while. I listen to them, smile at them and try to make them feel good about themselves, and they tip me. Seems to work both ways.

We really need to see pictures to be able to properly judge

I guess im a hypocrite really... if i had a daughter i would hit the roof if she told me she wanted to strip down to barely anything to wait on guys. Ultimately, when you go to the beach, you go for reasons other than to 'perve' (for the most part). But when you go to a pub where you know you're going to be served by a hot chick in a bikini, you're probably not going for the food.
In saying that, i'd be more than happy to go to one of those places or a strip club.... Im sure most guys appreciate a good looking female.

At the end of the day its harmless... you are doing an honest days work for an honest pay. The fact that you are working towards a bigger goal is admirable. And you have to do what you have to do. If you enjoy it, then there are no reasons why you shouldnt continue. I wouldnt let other peoples opinions sway your own.

I own a modelling company , the girls that work for me service events and do alot of promotional work , as have I in the past. I believe in life youll get nowhere if you let other people tell you whats best for you , only you can decide .

I marry old men that are about to croak, so you probably deserve to sleep easier than me

I had a math teacher that was SO against anything that displayed a womans body because he deemed it to be exploitative. He said that women who act in pornography, pose for magazines and anything else related, only did it because societal pressures forced them to do so, and they didn't fully comprehend what they were doing.

I hate maths, so I'd usually just get into a debate with him about it (it was always civil, he's a good bloke) by bringing a zoo magazine and popping it on my desk. 70 minutes would just fly by, haha.

LOL.... how many visitors did you get in your profile after posting this lol.

I'm gonna go have a look to find out lol

Well said Simon. If you have the confidence to do waiting in a bikini, all the power to you. So many woman have self esteem problems because society has forced ideas upon them. Don't let anyone dictate how you live your life. Don't fell that you need to justify yourself to anyone. Best of luck with your vet studies. Cheers Daniel

I'm gonna go have a look to find out lol

Me also.

 

[glassless_mind]

haha ok you go look and tell me, because I don't know where to look.

That's not what I'm after anyway. I wanted people's opinions, and I didn't know where else I could post something to get a general idea of views on the subject, particularly from people who don't know me.

Also, people who add me as a friend on here after I post something like this... I'm not going to add you... Message me if you really want, but unless you have a genuine question, I'm not going to reply either. That's not what this thread was about.

Another thing people don't generally think about, you wouldn't appreciate if your own daughter did something in those lines of work, but you'd go and... appreciate it yourself. That is someone elses daughter. That in its own right, I believe, is rather hypocritical. But hey, its just a job. Its what you make of it.

Woodys90... I guess I feel that I am working my backside off trying to get through vet. I don't have much spare time, and if I can work for just a few hours, to get enough money to help feed myself and pay the rent, then it's better than nothing. I would happily do another job, or fully cover up for this one, if I could earn the same amount of money in the little time I have. Thanks for your opinion, and don't worry, I'm not offended by what anyone thinks, just trying to understand the different views. It's certainly not what I plan on doing forever, just so I can support myself while I study to get where I want to go.

Don't feel as if you had to justify anything
It is definitely it's better than nothing. My point was that (to me) it's not better than some other jobs. & Obviously your main reason for doing it is the time/money factor.

That's my point -- that some people don't necessarily like it because they think it's the easy way out. Which it is when you compare the time/money factors to other jobs (Fact..)
This is so hard to type without sounding mean! I'm not at all saying you're a bad person for doing the easy thing, so please don't think that is what I'm trying to say I'm just trying to say what it is (or seems like to me?)
Hopefully this makes sense!

... also after a lot of editing this is as friendly as I could say this in writing!! Hopefully I do not offend you

143 page views on your profile lol Wonder what it was before you said you were a bikini waitress.

As i said in my earlier post... its a job and it pays the bills. If you are happy with it, then you shouldnt let what others think affect you. Good luck!

How is it an easy way out? If it was so easy this thread wouldn't exsist. It's tougher and more gutsy then most run of the mill jobs.

If you are comfortable doing it then go for it.

pics or it didnt happen
dont worry about other people. if your brother (if you had one) did it on ladies nites etc im sure there would be less if any problems. women have the bodies, guys like to stare. if you make some $$$ doing it there is no problem.

 

[glassless_mind]

Woodys90 - it's ok, really, I'm not offended. I wouldn't have asked for people's opinions if I wasn't willing to hear those that didn't agree with mine. The reason I asked was to try to understand other people's.

I can see what you're saying about the easy way out. I guess it is when you consider the amount I get paid for just a few hours work. I wouldn't always call it easy though. I stood for 7 hours in heels on wednesday night, and crushed the nerves in my toes. Have had pins and needles ever since... really hoping those go away soon. Sometimes it's also not easy being diplomatic with people. Wednesday night I wasn't in a bikini, I was in jeans, heels and a blouse, and had so many sleazy guys. The rich ones are always the worst, they either look down their nose at me, or... get inappropriate. They think money will buy everything, haha.

I would have to say though, that bikini waitressing is harder than when I worked in a kiosk. The pay is much better, the hours are much shorter, but it's much more tiring, physically and mentally. It is more fun too though, and less repetitive.

Please don't hesitate to express your opinion, and don't think I'm arguing with you when I say what I think. It's just friendly debating, and I'm interested in everyone's opinions on the issue : ) I won't stop doing this job because of what others think of it, I'm just interested in understanding why they think what they think.

And I have absolutely no idea what my profile views were before I posted this, haha. I didn't know how to check. Now I'd love to know... lol

 

[kawasakirider]

Just curious how much you can expect to make being a bikini waitress? I'd do it if there was a demand for mankini waiters, lol.

The only problem I could see with it, is if you were conflicted within yourself about it (which you don't seem to be), or your partner wasn't keen on it (which I think would be understandable).

I agree with this.
This is just everyone's opinions. It's up to you to decide. At least now you have some knowledge as to what others think since that's what you really wanted here in the first place

 

[glassless_mind]

I'm not conflicted with myself about it, although all the negativity I was getting from people I know was making me start to wonder. I feel better about it again now.

I specifically asked my boyfriend what he thought of it, and he said he's ok with it. He feels the same way about me doing promo work no matter what I'm wearing, and will worry about my safety anyway, but said he does that even if I'm just driving home at night by myself. He said he doesn't mind so long as I'm enjoying it, and knows I need the money.
