My point is that Steinmaniacs should be choosers and not beggers when it comes to women. We are, aftter all, devotees of the most heroically romantic and over-the-top stuff out there, after all...

You think I'm joking about Christian nightclubs and Mormon hangouts, but I'm not... at least not entirely. :-) Here's a description of the scene:

In my experience, most are closest in feel to small independent coffee shops in rural college towns. Occassionally, you get the retro-swing environment with a dance floor. But mostly, the model is probably a bunch of couches, tables, and loungy furniture with a makeshift stage for the touring acts that incessantly come through. The performers are dressed and stylized according to contemporary genre, and that often means female performers are soaked in sex with a cross somewhere that draws your eyes. The guy performers are good looking and ultimately they are usually way better than your typical local bands, it's like they've been practicing in churches since they were five or something... the only problem being that the lyrics still sound like traditional Christian pop and don't go thematically with the music -- so it causes a kind of thematic dissonance that makes you want to laugh or smile...

The first thing you'll notice, though, when you walk in to a Christian club, is that most of the guys other than performers and such aren't competition. At any rate, the girls are constantly running around giving ummm... like totally platonic hugs --it's like high school flirting so there's much touching, but no sex in the bathroom outside of your imagination. Most of them actually look happy when they smile. I live in Los Angeles, so that's sort of a rare thing for me. What's really fun is watching them cream over these Christian rock performers. It's like the film footage of the girls screaming for Elvis or the Beatles from the Ed Sullivan show -- except better. Every girl has a bit of a good girl and a bit of a bad girl and these tatooed preachers are succeeding with both. You haven't laughed until some girl has looked up at some "lead singer" whose albums she's been buying in church since she was 12 and faints in your arms when he growls "die on the cross for you."

The thing is that your skills as a man will improve drastically in a place like this. You'll need to get good at building sexual tension with subtext... and with honor. Most of the girls are young and cute, I'd say Hayden from Heroes looks about right, but the sexiness is there under the surface. Better girls make you better.

Anyway, it's right up there with a real five star honkey-tonk, which is kind of the opposite experience, but still worthwhile. :-)
