- Abstract
Using interview data from fourteen male stripper, this article examines several occupational issues related to this nontraditional work role for men. The intention is to concentrate on the individual dynamics of becoming a male stripper. Specifically, we discuss (a) the situational contingencies affecting how males are recruited to stripping, (b) the socialization process they undergo, and (c) the outcome of socialization, which is the development of ideologies regarding the occupation of stripping. A secondary purpose is to put our findings in perspective by comparing and contrasting them with those on females involved in stripping.
