interesting note about the club i work at
the DJs are paid by the club & tipped by dancers
the bouncers are paid by the club & tipped by dancers
the valet are paid by a private company & tipped by dancers
so traditionally male roles are paid by both wage & (?) variable capital

house mom, on the other hand, is NOT paid by the club, & rely exclusively on tips from dancers, who already exclusively rely on tips from customers!
so HM cant exchange her reproductive labor power for a wage, she exchanges for idk what to even call it? mediated variable capital

marxist feminists who understand bourgeois political economy please slide in my dms...... the levels of mediation here are hurting my brain
i just learned something so infuriating. might have a stroke.
sometimes my club contracts out to a male dancer company. and guess what.
the male dancers are paid a wage by the company AND by tips from the customers.
they keep all the tips. no house fee.
HUUUH

this is batshit? hello?
for a male dancer's bad night, he walks away with a minimum of $60; for a female dancer's bad night, she walks away in DEBT to the club - because not only do we not get paid by the club, but we pay the club ourselves for the pleasure of our exploitation

ik male/female is very binary (and untrue in my case, classified as female/girl by work but nonbinary in reality), it's not my fault, i have no better system to explain this to y'all
im gonna need to email ms. fortunati about this one https://twitter.com/RedKlutz/status/1349601643629834240
