Tourisme-Montréal

Club Super Sexe is a strip club located in the middle of downtown on St. Catherine's Street right beside a family restaurant and across from the Eaton Centre.

The dirty little secret that strip clubs usually are doesn't seem to be so dirty here in Montreal. They are not hidden in the "seedy" part of town, like they so often are. Here, they are mixed in beside clothing stores and above family restaurants. These low culture establishments are normally viewed as profane second worlds, and they still are I guess, but here they are also part of the mainstream public. The resistant culture of strip clubs has been accepted by the dominant culture by being allowed to exist in public spaces where families go out for Sunday night dinners. Strip clubs are big part of Montreal tourism. I think it's pretty tacky but I hardly notice the sleazy bouncers anymore that stand under their neon lit signs as I walk past them into The Gap! (I hardly do; It's hard not to notice them, but I just try to accept that's the way it is here.)
