I look at all these guys who seem to revel in this as normal. And I don't know what's worse--acting "normal" to the waitresses as if it's nothing, or trying to awkwardly acknowledge the exploitation.

So...in the end I wrote a little acknowledging thank you note on a check, plus a 70% tip. Waitress came back to say thanks for the note and we chatted about it, and #MeToo, and the irony of the situation. It was refreshingly humanizing. I hope it made some small difference.

You waited around to see a waitress react to your tip?

This is pretty pathetic. Like the guy who goes to the strip club and tries to have an intellectual conversation with the stripper during a lap dance. Usually they are even more disgusted with those guys because they don't take the situation at face value and come off like they are trying to get "more".

I don't go to Hooters like ever, but I occasionally go to Twin Peaks because the bar is clean, they have a shitload of TVs and the beer is decent. Scantily clad waitresses doesn't hurt but I certainly wouldn't go there for them alone.

Ultimately these are adult women though making their own decisions. I certainly am in now position to second guess them.

I went to hooters once like a year or two ago. Idk if they changed it or something recently but the place was pretty much indistinguishable from an Applebees or something. The waitresses wore the white tank tops but they werent particularity revealing, the sexy element I always heard about was pretty much nonexistent. This was in NYC so maybe its different in other places?

Yeah, my gfs friends when we were in college dragged us to a strip club and we were both super uncomfortable lol. Funny thing is we were super freaks, its just something about all that which makes it awkward. Her friend motorboated one of the strippers boobs lol.

I feel like the opposite would happen the longer you are there for. I mean, you have two beers, things begin to seem pretty normal and you just go with the flow.

Honestly this lol. Wtf is all this awkward talk. I've gone several times and it never was. The wings are decent, good combination of crispy/sauce ratio, and the waitresses are cool. Just don't be a douche and act like you're gonna get some lol
