I’m a medical student in my mid-twenties in Phoenix.
About a year ago, on a lark, I tried stripping. To my surprise, I really enjoyed it. I was brought up very strict as an over achiever. This world was the opposite of everything I knew and very freeing. So I started stripping part time at a local club.
Since quarantine, I haven’t been able to dance. I actually really miss it. It is like a whole secret part of my identity that I can no longer indulge.
Now it is just boring med school and prepping for exams. Never thought I would be a stripper.... or miss it.
