It caters for a male market.
Just like cheesecake factory caters to a female market.

I dunno, but anyone who says all of those words in a single sentence in real life probably needs to get beaten up.

It caters to chauvinists, but IIRC the company takes pretty good care of its employees

It technically is, but so does lady nights at bars. But let women and men do what they want, I don't get why people are so outraged at sexuality.

I saw something about them making a version with dudes.

I remember an article or something, never bothered to check if it was satire.

Not gonna lie, if there was a hospitality job I could get that would net me 400% regular tips just because I was pretty, I would take it.

I say that but I probably don't mean it. Sounds nice on that basis though.

The business it's isn't but they shamelessly cater to that demographic.

They have pretty good wings though.

That's silly. That's like saying liquor stores cater to alcoholics because alcoholics might be a demographic that shop there. It's possible to go to Hooters to eat and not ogle buxom dames. But then I wouldn't ever go for the food. Ate there twice and both times the wings were pretty meh.

And then here there's like 3 other chains of restaurants that are pretty much Hooters. They also ambiguously incorporate what they are selling into the name of the restaurant.

Yeah it is. If they work 5 nights a week making $200 then they're making $1000 a week. That's $52000 a year.

I think you defeated yourself in your 4th sentence.
Eh. I prefer Wing Stop. But lots of people like Hooters for food. Just not me. But it's at least better than BWW.

beer selection sucks, BWW has some good stuff on tap

hooters is kind of the last hurrah of shitty bars that have nothing in the decor, food, or beverage selection to bring in clientele and rely entirely on servicing the male gaze and the 'idea' of being at a socially acceptable titty bar

Yeah BBW has good beer selection. Last time I went last year I didn't even pay and it was still pretty meh to me. But yeah if you want environment, like sports, and lively places BBW is the place to go.

Eh, never stepped foot in there but I heard from a co-worker who used to work there that she would rack up a lot of dough from tips (she mentioned the best tippers tend to be the fat/obese guys there).
