I love strip clubs more than I love eating food. I love them more than I love oxygen. It doesn't bother me a bit to watch a girl grind her ass all over me for a few bucks. Hell, if I take someone on a regular date, I end up paying 3 times what it would have cost in a strip club to get a girl to do the same thing. Even then it's not [guaranteed] to happen.
Here's the problem though. I'm picky when it comes to strippers and I hate wasting my cash on some girl I don't want giving me a dance in the first place. What's the best way to get those girls away from me? I assume they'll be letting the pretty ones know what an asshole they think I am if I tell them to get lost.

Dancers are pretty reasonable if you handle the situation with some class. If you're the kind of guy who is going to try to put a girl down and embarrass her by saying, “Sorry, I'm not into aging transsexuals” to look cool in front of your friends, you might as well leave that club. Stephen Baldwin's career will see more fortunate action than you that night.
I probably can't explain to you how to be honest without being rude in the few words I have here. Judging by the strip clubs I've been in, tact isn't passed out at the door. But Swisher Sweets appear to be. Strange thing.
Try saying thanks but then letting them know that you're looking for a really specific look.
Or that you're more into brunettes if they're blonde. Redheads if they're brunette. Tall if they're short. Short if they're tall. Just not one-legged if they have two. It might be lying, but it solves your problem and you save face.
It's their arena; they're smart girls. They know that they can't be every guy's type, but they'd rather you didn't waste their time or insult them with something you think is really creative and funny.
