A strip club, also known as an adult entertainment venue or gentlemen's club, is a place where performers remove their clothing in front of spectators. These establishments typically feature exotic dancers who dance to music and gradually remove their clothes until they are fully nude or wearing only G-strings and pasties. Some strip clubs also offer other services such as lap dancing, private dances, and alcoholic beverages. The goal of a strip club is usually to provide entertainment for adults in a safe and controlled environment.
