Unless you're a girl: then the contact isn't quite so limited. To sit in a booth you need to bribe the bouncer $20. Credit Cards are charged under the name NAPPCO INC. The DJ was unremarkable; the bathroom was cluttered and crowed, and the bathroom attendant was a little too attentive. The Story: It was an evening for S___________ to try some new things. We started at Miki's in Ann Arbor, where we sat at the Sushi bar. It had been a long time since I had introduced anyone to sushi, and I'd forgotten how hard it was to get over the idea of eating raw fish. I ordered Tuna and Yellowtail, and she managed to force them down. I taught her how to mix the wasabi and the soy sauce into a nasal clearing paste, and how to make sure soy sauce got onto the rice without violating Asian etiquette. I thought she might still be hungry, so I ordered a California Roll, as I was homesick, and a tuna roll, because she seemed to like that. "What's that wrapper made out of - or do I not want to know?" "Seaweed". S___________ gave me a look that said that things better improve, or else. After straightening out some confusion with the check, which improved the price of the dinner by a bottle of sake, we repaired to a nearby nudie establishment: The Landing Strip. idleeric was supposed to meet us, but his plans changed when he found a way to spend time with Catherine The Great. So we were on our own. We parked the car, parked her jacket (ooh, now her tight shirt was uncovered), and paid cover -- $5 for "the gentleman". I was proud of myself for not turning to look to see whom the clerk was talking about. Then we walked upstairs. There was a relatively small room dominated by a long stage shared by two dancers. One end zone had the restrooms, and the other had the bar. Over the bar was a small stage that featured the last song in a dancer's rotation. There were several other women PL's in attendance, all escorted by male PL's or in a group. S___________'s eyes roamed the room, she was nervous and excited yet she wanted to look cool. Just like us guys. We watched the dancers, and I admit I peeked at my beloved, but doomed, Raiders from time to time. Still, the best thing to watch was S___________. As I may have mentioned, she was wearing tight jeans (which she regretted later), and a tight shirt covered her ample cleavage. "So, do you want to tip her?" I said, when I noticed S___________'s gaze was directed at a particular dancer. "No", she'd shake her head each time, letting me know that she either didn't think the dancer was sensual enough, or that she wasn't quite comfortable getting out of the chair, drawing all that attention to herself. I tipped a couple of dancers as they walked from the large stage to a small one above the bar. A titian tressed trull caught my eye while playing with another dancer; she later returned with a stale "wanna": "Who am I going to molest at this table?" I told her that I wasn't going to be molested by a dancer, but that S___________ might. K_____ was a medium sized dancer, young with pert B cups. She joined us, egged S___________ into a couple of shots, then took us upstairs. I sat between the girls and the bouncer. K_____ stripped out of everything but her panties and her shoes then draped herself over S___________. During the dances she stroked S___________'s breasts, pulling her shirt up when the bouncer wasn't looking. S___________ stroked K_____'s butt and those sensitive inner thighs, moving her fingers higher and higher during the dance. K_____ arched her back, pressing herself into S___________, while S___________ fondled and sucked K_____'s tits. Finally K_____ stood over S___________, closed her eyes, and let S___________ taste her. At this point the bouncer raised a gentle objection. K_____ was unhappy at the lickus interuptus, but didn't complain too loudly once she had herself comfortably draped over S___________ again. She berated S___________ for not wearing a skirt. However, S___________ had derived as much pleasure from the dance as any other raincoater would, and didn't feel too bad about it. Three dances in the VIP room: $60. Someone else doing all that foreplay while I got to watch football: priceless. We returned to the main area and watched more dancers. K_____ didn't rejoin us, to S___________'s disappointment, but she did give S___________ her number, which turned out to be real. I wonder what that means? During the postmortem, S___________ said that she should still be labeled bi "curious", although she didn't seem to be in doubt, and she also expressed surprise that K_____ tasted so similar to herself. I couldn't comment, as I didn't know what K_____ tasted like. S___________ got to eat raw fish, put soy sauce on her rice, see naked women, eat another kind of sushi, and receive paid sex work. Then we found something else she liked, but that's another story. And if you are a bi or gay woman in the Detroit area who would like to meet S___________, drop me a line and I'll introduce you. Virtually, as it were.
