mthor Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I'm not sure how many of you are familiar with the 1962 movie masterpiece The Brain That Wouldn't Die. It's about a scientist trying to find a new body for his fiancee's head (which was the only part of her that he was able to salvage from the burning wreckage of her car). My daughter and I were kind of watching it this afternoon, and what hit us both was that the first place that he goes to look for a suitable body is a strip club. I was of the opinion that this was a reflection of the time, but she disagreed. So, gentlemen, my question is, has anything changed in almost 60 years? Is a strip club still the place where one goes when looking for a body? Or are there other venues now preferred when looking for a body to put a head on? Where would you, if your partner were suddenly bodiless, start your search? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wacky1980 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 yeah...i dunno. the strip clubs around here aren't exactly drawing in bikini models for their staff. if it's solely for the body, i'm probably going to the local Y. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mix Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I'd go to one of those cross fit gyms. They're always getting injured...you show up with a van done up like an ambulance and take your pick... Nothing against the ladies at the stripclub...they just seem like a group of people who would be prepped and looking out for a possible abduction/brain swap....I'm not trying to get stabbed 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, this is what I thought, and not just for the aesthetics - I'd want my partner to have a fairly fit and healthy body (fit enough to open jars and take stuff down cellar, anyway). If somebody's going to the gym, they're at least minimally invested in their health, and it's faster than breaking into a medical database and reading charts until I find an ideal specimen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawdamizer Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I used to go to the strop club every Friday night, would never sit at the stage but at the bar where my friend was a bartender... she was better looking and had a better mind on her than all the women put together.... she’d serve me strong drink... tits around and they played pretty good music too... by 11pm I was ready for the night wherever that might be.... i hooked up with a few strippers, but I always knew what it was about... they all were either heading to nursing school, in nursing school or career stripper it seemed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom Metal Alchemist Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Well first off, I'm not interested in killing any strippers or anyone else for that matter.

katt_goddess Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I'm thinking that the whole idea of hitting up the strip club [ other than for titilation sake in the movie itself ] is the idea that no one would miss a stripper. The stereotypical 'stripper' in the 60's was seen as having no close family, few real friends that would miss them, no serious relationships that would cause someone to know they are missing immediately, willing to quit a job and wander off to some other job without any real notice given, and basically a fringe-dweller. No one pays attention to the face too so fresh body in the light of day that no one would be able to fully identify in the daylight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
