Really?
Wow.
My grown child in his/her late 20's?
If she/he is a good person that treats my grown child well, sure.
My daughter's last boyfriend was an associate at BigLaw, he was an asshole to her.
My son's current girlfriend is a part time college student who works in a bar. She is a jewel.
If you think the jewel who works in a bar is like a stripper you are clueless!
I've never known a stripped who wasn't emotionally damaged with family issues. Invite her to dinner and ask her about her family. You'll see OP.

Soooo what you're saying is that your cousin was a lesser version of Anna Nicole Smith who couldn't or didn't want to find love among young men of her own age group, and instead went after grandfathers with money and was their little twenty-something arm candy until each of them croaked?
Yep. Your cousin sounds like a winner!

Yes I agree I have no authority over who my son dates. But I do have more invested in his happiness, well-being and success in life than a girlfriend who might leave him at any time, or divorce him after she gets married.
The naivete about strippers in this thread is hysterical. The majority of them have histories of abuse, drug problems, and eventually they start escorting on the side to make more cash. It's well-documented. None of this is news. It's not a "female-empowering" profession, although yes as a feminist we should allow all women to make their own choices. DS's girlfriend is obviously free to make her own choices, I'm not going to police her. But I do have a say over who joins my family.
Every now and then one happy stripper will trot along and do a DCUM AMA or an interview onTV, just like you'll see the PR-friends happy porn star and happy hooker doing the same things. These women DO NOT accurately represent their industry and very often they aren't accurately. It's incredibly naive and delusional to think otherwise.
However, thanks again for your replies, and this thread can end now.
