On a dance floor in Williston, N.D., where single men say there are not enough single women.
WILLISTON, N.D. — Christina Knapp and a friend were drinking shots at a bar in a nearby town several weeks ago when a table of about five men called them over and made an offer.
They would pay the women $3,000 to strip naked and serve them beer at their house while they watched mixed martial arts fights on television. Ms. Knapp, 22, declined, but the men kept raising the offer, reaching $7,000.
“I said I make more money doing my job than degrading myself to do that,” said Ms. Knapp, a tattoo artist with dark streaks in her light brown hair, a bird tattoo on her chest and piercings above her lip and left cheekbone.

$7000 to look at that? North Dakota needs women!
“I said I make more money doing my job than degrading myself to do that,” said Ms. Knapp, a tattoo artist with dark streaks in her light brown hair, a bird tattoo on her chest and piercings above her lip and left cheekbone.
OK. So that establishes she's above Lady Astor (absent further escalations in the offer, that is).

LOL I can understand your concern,and you notice I did not say Las Vegas or Reno, and I understand your reference to the cow counties.
But if you think prostitution is not in Las Vegas and Reno you and I both know better.It is simply called escorts and a bit more expensive.

Yup listed in the Yellow Pages.

In the mining/pipeline boom days of Alaska, the women would say:
“The odds are good, but the goods are odd.”
They won't last--It is winter here.
“Dang, here I always heard that was Wyoming....”
Oddly enough, that’s where I hope to retire to. :)
Hard to say right now, but they could have been from there.
Local boys know that if she will, you don't want her, and they know enough young ladies from high school, they aren't likely to be offering thousands for someone to strip at a bar.
Figure Williston has doubled in size in three years or so, (the majority moving in men working in the oil patch) and chances are good the guys weren't from Williston, or even North Dakota.
I wasn’t saying it was true. Wyoming is OK if you don’t mind Artic cold weather and horizontal snow storms.
Worked in Wyoming several times, it has some rugged beauty, even outside of Yellow Stone.
Yeah, and the bumper stickers saying, "if God meant Texans to ski, He would have given them snow."
I put a handmade bumper sticker on my car saying, "if God meant Coloradans to ski, he would have given them money."
Of course, now, Texans are a Godsend, and Californians are the new pariahs.
I guess then a little snugglin’ is in order. If’n she’s ugly flip’m over.
Scarcity can make even an inferior product attractive in certain markets.
She's a Willston 10!
From that picture? At best a “last call” 7. Unless she’s GTG from the neck down.
Okay, she's a 7 in Washington, D.C., a 5 in New York City, but in Williston, North Dakota? Why, she's a 10!
5 points for breathing.
5 points for being at least cosmetically female.
[ But I might sell them inflatable babes ]
Can THAT be taxed?.. Inflatable babes?..
MAybe thats the next outrage to come from Stockton..
There you go, that what happens when you live in a boom town.
Two guys on a dance floor. Advertising? Brokeback Dakota?
Sounds like a business opportunity for someone to bring his “pretend wife” and introduce her around.
