That would depend on how he looks, dances, smiles and flirts. It also depends on the club he is dancing in and which nights he is dancing. A well sculpted body and nice bulge are more important than big muscles. The more masculine he looks the better he will do. Completely shaved, or guys with make up, don't make as much money unless they are doing drag. Gay guys seem to like dancers with some hair, but not gorilla hairy. In general the gay strip clubs pay more, and the tips are better. Most drag queens make more money than a go-go dancer.



If he flirts and teases, he will make more money. The money will decline the longer he works at the same club. To make money as a dancer you have to work different clubs every month. One of my friends danced in some clubs and stripped in others. He also emceed for some drag shows. On a good Friday and Saturday night at a "new" club he would clear about $2000 for the weekend. At clubs he had performed in before, a good weekend would be about $1000. If he worked a club for a month or more it was usually down between $150-$200 for the weekend. Many clubs do not pay the dancers, they must make their money on tips. Now, keep in mind my friend was handsome, very well endowed, he flirted and let them look down in his shorts to see it was real as long as they were putting a good tip in along with their hand. And, once in awhile, when money was tight, he'd allow more. He always tried to have one of is friends come with him to hold on to the money, and his "clothing changes." The dancers get ripped off while they are on stage performing.



It's not an easy living. The career is short. There is always another cute guy coming along to compete with. It was enough for my friend to pay his bills until he could get through technical school. In Phoenix, Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, New Orleans, Atlanta, Miami and Tampa/St Pete he used to make the most money. He went to Chicago a couple of times, but it didn't pay as well, he said there was just too much competition. But surprisingly, he did really well in some of the medium sized cities. He always said it wasn't worth working in a town with less than a half a million people and at least two gay clubs.How much money does a gay male Gogo Dancer make averagely?
