There are a lot of Ambers in the stripping world. And Aprils and
Summers, and Skys and Rains. There are quite a few gems: Sapphires,
Diamonds, Rubies and even an Amethyst. And exotic creatures:
Tigers, Cheetahs, Phoenixes and Kitties. Plenty of weather
conditions, like Misty, Stormy and Cloudy. There are, of course, a
selection of fruits: Cherry, Berry, Peaches and Apple. And
confectionery to go with it, like Candy, Lolly and Caramel. And
then there are the generic hot-girl/sexy names: Lolita, Tiffany,
Chanel, Lulu, Sasha and Brigitte. Meet Sunshine. That's her stage
name. Follow her downstairs into the shadowy underworld of the
so-called Gentlemen's Clubs, where men hide in dark corners and pay
gorgeous women like Sunshine to take their clothes off. Follow her
to the private rooms where the lap dances happen, the hustle plays
out and the real money flows. Sit with her in the back room with
the other dancers, her friends and colleagues, who laugh and cry
and rake in the dollars and party as though a zombie apocalypse is
on the horizon. Sunshine tells us in her own brutally honest and
audacious words what it's like to work as a stripper, both in
Australia and overseas. Confessional, confronting, revealing,
wildly entertaining and often laugh-out-loud funny, Sunshine: The
diary of a lap dancer will take you into a world that most of us
can only imagine and that others know all too well. But only the
dancers know what really goes on - and this book shows you their
world stripped bare.
Ethnography in Marketing and Consumer Research is intended to
assist researchers in employing ethnographic methods in marketing
and consumer research. This is in response to the demands of
practitioners, students, and academics who want to know more about
ethnographic research, but who may not have had a formal training
or exposure. Ethnographic research is concrete evidence of what is
conventionally referred to as qualitative (or sometimes,
interpretive) research. Ethnography is increasingly used to explore
marketing and consumer issues, designing products, services and
systems that improve people's daily lives. The authors offer a
step-by-step approach to conducting ethnography in business and
consumer settings with some examples. This monograph also provides
a framework and some general principles.
