With the exception of basketball, I can say with certainty that I’ve gone to more strip clubs than I have to professional sports games. Why not? The beers are pretty much the same price, and I actually enjoy seeing my athletes use “performance enhancers.” Regardless of whether or not you agree with me, you have to admit that the girl dancing in this video would is a shoe-in for the First Team All-Stripper squad. Before you can vote though, you need to see her in action. Check out the video after the jump!

We talk a lot about how to break the ice with women here at COED – a lot of the time we advise to be confident not cocky, make eye contact but not stare, etc. But, sometimes you just have to make a power move; one that lets the girls know exactly what’s going on. And out of all the aggro maneuvers out there, stripper pole in the living room is as “acceptable” as they come thanks to “pole dancing” not only being a pro sport, but also becoming a new workout trend that secretly freaky chicks use to tone up. The girls in our gallery agree. Check ‘em out after the jump.

Apparently, this video was filmed after six hours of pole-dancing workshops at UP DANCE Studio. The two women, Ooana Kivela (winner of one Pole World Cup) and Grazzy Brugner (Miss Pole Dance Brazil World) are pretty good at dry humping a pole eight feet high what they do. I’m not going to lie, one of them is much better looking than the other but you have to watch to find out which one I’m talking about. If you have a special lady friend, you really should consider buying her some lessons in this very special art form – just sayin’. Watch the video after the jump!

She’s red hot in the bedroom, sports some seriously skimpy clothing, and owns a stripper pole. You suspect that she may have been a porn star in a past life: or that she has an alter ego that only comes out after dusk at Spearmint Rhino. If you’re unsure whether your girlfriend could be a professional piece of *ss, then you’d better read my top check list of telltale signs your girlfriend used to be a stripper or a porn star. Check out the list after the jump.

Early Saturday morning (June 11th), the AP reported a New York state court ruled alcohol-free strip clubs will be forced to tax lap dances because they don’t qualify for a state tax exemption as “dramatic or musical arts performances.” This was in response to an Albany club called, “Nite Moves”, which apparently owes more than $125,000 in back taxes from 2005. The club’s lawyer stated, “We admit the ballet is a little different and maybe a little more finely tuned.” Read our reaction after the jump.

Today’s WTF news items feature a very elusive yet social media savvy snake that escaped from the Bronx Zoo, a new workout regiment that makes the transition from Jesus freak to stripper a lot more acceptable, and a pair of Brits who went on a blind date only to discover they have more in common than they could ever imagine. Read more WTF wackiness after the jump!

Everyone, with the possible exception of dads with daughters, loves a good pole dance. But if you can take your eyes off the nudity for just a sec you’ll see there’s a lot more athleticism, and art, to rocking that pole than most people think. Until recently, most pole dancing “competitions” were judged by applause or some other equally arbitrary method. There wasn’t an impartial way to give the art of pole dancing the recognition it deserved. Which is why the US Pole Dancing Federation was created in 2008. See a video of 2010′s USPDF Professional champion, Alethea Austin, along with 70 pics of her and other pole dancers including Miss Pole Dance World Felix Cane, Miss Pole Dance Canada Crystal Lai, and Miss Pole Dance USA Jenyne Butterfly after the jump!

What’s part Mardi Gras, part burlesque, and part rock concert? No, it’s not the Minnesota Vikings “Love Boat”, it’s The Exotic Erotic Ball & Expo, a fun-filled celebration of “free love” featuring over 50 live performances from pornstars to strippers, supermodels to reality TV stars. This is the 31st annual edition of the show, which is set to take place October 22-23rd at the Craneway Pavilion in San Fran.

We have a winner! Australian hottie, Felix Cane was just announced Miss Pole Dance World 2009, and boy are we proud. No, we didn’t have a hand in her winning. We just want to help make sure this magnificent sport gets as much coverage as humanly possible. Because the more people know, the more chicks will take up pole dancing. And that is NEVER a bad thing. (Ok, almost never.)

In the wake of the Olympics, it’s easy to forget that there are other contests out there–sexier contests. No, not beauty pageants. We’re talking about the wonderful world of competitive pole dancing. What was once a device only used for turning men on at the strip club has turned into a favorite piece of equipment for dancers, gymnasts an… Click to read more

With the economy slowing grinding to a halt, the sub-prime mortgage crisis, gas prices rising and the US dollar tanking, American’s are spending less on ‘luxury items’–and strippers are starting to feel the pinch. Thing is, stripping still brings home the bacon better than most jobs out there, so more and more women are opting to… Click to read more
