I'm sorry, that's funny. Have you ever seen "Hall Pass"? It makes me think of that scene where he is trying to order a rub and tug and a tea bag at a massage parlor and it ends up being joined to a laundromat where there are families and the girl at the front counter opens up the divider, and he's like, no! I asked for a rub NO TUG and the tea bag, you heat them up... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home/page/2#post-396960 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 12:01:28 +0000 Mrs. Pen 396960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>not at all!! we live in a pretty family oriented burb </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396958 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 12:00:12 +0000 SugarplumsMom 396958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396953 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:57:18 +0000 JoJoGirl 396953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladyfingers: there's actually a Chinese reflexology place on my street. I went there once for a massage and there was a sign on the wall that said 'Do not request inappropriate acts of our therapists. Thank you, the management' :-O </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396950 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:52:17 +0000 ladyfingers 396950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: Yes ma'am, that's exactly the kind I'm talking about. I don't know that it's really legal per se... but I think they have to do a raid to find them doing anything illegal, because from the outside, it's just a plain old massage place (albeit with a strongly Asian slant -- don't blame me, it's true!!! pictures of geishas and stuff. it's like it's code or something!!)</p> <p>The main drag here is Kennedy Blvd, that's where most of them are concentrated, and my friend's husband calls it "Jack Off Kennedy Blvd." So bad, but so true! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396946 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:49:11 +0000 mrs. bird 396946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ladyfingers: ok, I need to clarify, 'massage parlors' you mean like when you hear ppl talk about men going to them for... Manual attention, yes? Those are legal in fl?? I had no idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396935 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:45:13 +0000 littlebug 396935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meaganceleste: Comdom Sense might be a chain, cuz there is one on South Street in Philly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396931 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:44:02 +0000 littlebug 396931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have an adult shop about a mile from our house. It doesn't bother me at all. But ask me again when our son is 15, ha ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396928 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:42:52 +0000 PurplePumps 396928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, nothing of the sort, there's practically no businesses near me at all except for small ones like vets, dentist, and ..wow, that's all I can think off the top of my head. I don't even have a supermarket in the town! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396921 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:40:37 +0000 JoJoGirl 396921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: LOL... sounds like we're getting close to talking about Woncord again.... maybe we need to migrate to the meetup thread? And yes, I loved loved loved that neighborhood too (of course) - DH already owned a condo in the 'burbs and dragged me kicking and screaming by my fingernails out of there since I rented. Probably good though because I was single-handedly supporting B. Good. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396906 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:32:49 +0000 ladyfingers 396906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're in the Tampa Bay area but live in St. Pete, so there aren't any near our house, but there is one right around the corner from where I work in Tampa and several others just a couple of miles away. Like @artbee said, we are home of the "Vegas-style strip club." This is actually where Channing Tatum used to work. Lots of massage parlors too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396897 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:30:41 +0000 sarac 396897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Portland Oregon has the highest number of strip clubs per capita, so they're everywhere. None near me, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396889 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:27:54 +0000 BabyBear 396889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, there is one right across from my work actually. I always ask visitor who call for directions of they know where the strip club is (especially if it's a male). Most of the reply yes and I say we're right across the street. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396888 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:27:42 +0000 Foodnerd81 396888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JoJoGirl: Yup sounds like we were almost neighbors! I love the neighborhood, so we are staying until we really need a second bedroom (when we won't be willing to pay the rent it would entail). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396882 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:24:50 +0000 loveisstrange 396882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but our area is pretty rural. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396880 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:24:06 +0000 Alivoo01 396880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396829 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:06:29 +0000 Bookish 396829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only strip club in town is about 2-3 miles away. It's referred to as 'the dirty sock' :p It's funny though, because it used to be on the edge of town and now the town has grown around it.. so now it's this little dumpy building in the middle of a bunch of nice developments! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396826 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 11:05:54 +0000 mrs. bird 396826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meaganceleste: omg, condom sense!

My brother thinks its hilarious. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396806 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:59:53 +0000 mrs. bird 396806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: the signs for the ones in providence creep me out! Too much, way too much! </p> <p>@Foodnerd81: Very nice!! I'd love to live over there : )</p> <p>@JoJoGirl: I lived in newton when I was in college, now I'm out in central ma. Haha, masshole thread jack! Sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396779 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:50:53 +0000 BelugaBean 396779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No but when we first moved in together we lived up the street from a strip club. I thought it was interesting that it was packed at 11am everyday and that they advertised lunch specials. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396778 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:50:06 +0000 Mrs. Train 396778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in the San Fernando Valley it's pretty big so there are lots of adult clubs and stores. Plus we are the "porn Capitol of the US". Great thing to be known for. At our old house there was a boat parked on the street behind us called "the money shot" we were pretty sure there was lots of filming going on there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396772 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:49:19 +0000 Turd Ferguson 396772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're in the suburbs, but about 10-15 minutes out of the city, so I guess they're close-ish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396765 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:47:46 +0000 JoJoGirl 396765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Does that mean we were maybe almost neighbors? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396762 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:47:10 +0000 JoJoGirl 396762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: Haha that's hilarious!! I actually lived down the street from that exact place for years! I'm not downtown anymore though - moved to the suburbs when I met DH. ;) But can never be too far from one, right? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396760 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:46:05 +0000 sorrycharlie 396760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not that I know of! Lots in providence though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396747 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:43:20 +0000 MrsTiz 396747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not locally, we have quite a few in town so about 20 minutes away. Both male and female strip clubs and two or three adult shops. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-adult-establishments-near-your-home#post-396736 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 10:38:13 +0000 Foodnerd81 396736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I am fairly certain I live within 3 blocks of the one you are talking about! </p> <p>There are two 'sex shops' a few blocks over from me. I'm pretty sure 99% of their business is bachelorette or break up gag gifts, not any serious purchases, so I don't consider it a problem. Very convenient when you need some naughty cupcake toppers for a b-lette party. </p>
