More couples visiting Gentlemen's clubs, says new research 

More couple’s are visiting traditional Gentlemen’s Clubs according to new research.

Just four years ago, the clubs used to be the preserve of investment bankers, city brokers and international businessmen.

Now, the trend is for more men and women to go together for a fun night out, especially at weekends.

The dramatic change in attendance is highlighted at Stringfellows, the world-famous gentlemen's club in Covent Garden, London, where the number of couples attending together has doubled.

Julian Russell, senior club director, said:” The clientele is definitely evolving and I think it’s down to a combination of factors.

“I think the Fifty Shades of Grey phenomenon played a major part in promoting interest in these establishments which used to be for men only.And I think we have been eager to emphasise there is nothing sleazy about an evening here.

“Certainly we have found more UK women are joining their partners, experiencing what was traditionally the gentlemen’s night out.

“Virtually overnight, the venues started to be seen, not just as a male preserve but as a bit of fun.”he said.

The number of sex establishment licenses issued by councils in England dropped from 386 in 2013 to 256 last year.
