Thoroughly summarize this article. I define a thorough summary to mean a minimum of three well developed paragraphs, with each paragraph being composed of a minimum of five sentences.
As part of your summary be certain to specifically address the following:
1. Detail the male stripper's hypermasculine presentation of self. Be specific and detailed.
2. How did the male stripper's maintain control of the situation? Did the male strippers feel genuinely threatened by the female patrons, or were aggressive club patrons defined more as a bother and nuisance (see the bottom third of page 516)? Be specific and detailed.
3. What do the authors mean by "gender role transcendence"? To what degree do they claim it illustrates their strip club observations? To be blunt, did the male strip show truly put the women in control of the situation? Be specific and detailed.
If you are going to include a brief quote from the article use quotation marks, otherwise the words should be your own. Do not plagiarize or you will receive a zero.
Be certain to proofread your work prior to submission, as spelling, grammar, and punctuation count.
