Exotic dancer
Please provide the source of your addition about male strippers you added to Exotic dancer article, otyher wise the text may be deleted. `'Míkka 18:58, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi Mikka,

I appreciate your question. The answer to your question is that I am the author of the article and I personnaly traveled with "Fast Freddy and the Playboys" so the source is from my own experiences and Journals. The article is simply a Historical addition and does not promote any profitible entity or persons, as Fast freddy has passed away and I am a Repected Fine Art Dealer for over two decades. Also could you please add the addition of our 1980s tour poster to accompany the article below. (visuals provided) I am the "Cowboy" and Fast Freddy is in the center of the tour poster. I agree under GFDL to submit this information as factual.

Sorry, I was in a hurry and I didn't explain the real problem with your addition. According to wikipedia rules, wikipedians cannot write articles purely from their own experience. Please start form the summary of the corresponding policies: Attribution. The major reason for these rather strict policies is that in wikipedia "anyone can edit" and the only way to verify the correctness of added information is reference to materials previously published in reliable sources. We are still having quite a few jokers writing about nonexistent people, rock-bands, tribes, towns, etc. `'Míkka 00:39, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Male Exotic Dancers
"Fast Freddy and The Playboys" created by Fred Byler, and billed as "The King of Male Strippers", from Niles, Michigan. The first group of its kind and the pioneers of the traveling Male Dance Troup. Performing and singing to Female Only audiences across the United States throughout the 1980s to sold out crowds numbering in the thousands at a single venue. They traveled nationally as a group for more than a decade. Recording Artist Album Titled "Fast Freddy..For Ladies Only"(1980). The group was known for always arriving by Stretch Limosines wearing thier matching trademark white tailed tuxedos with red bow tie and cumberbunds. They were historically the first male exotic dancers to be seen by millions of Americans on many major television shows including including ABCs 20/20, The Today Show,The Phil Donahue Show, and The Sally Jesse Raphael Show, Etc. They were also featured in numerous national magazine articles including Time, Playboy, and Oahu Magazines. Leading Playboy and Playgirl Model "Scot Free" (Real Name Ken Wise) was named First Male in Striptease History to win the coveted Six Foot Tall World Champion Trophy for "Entertainer of the Year" (1984) at The Ponderosa Sun Club, Roselawn, IN. competing against over 40 female acts for the title. Much unlike the popular group known as Chippendales "Fast Freddy and The Playboys" brought a classy show to hundreds of hometowns, large and small... rather than the ladies traveling to a single nightclub in CA.
