Gentlemen's clubs are private social clubs traditionally catering to men. They often provide a space for members to relax, socialize, and network. These clubs may offer amenities such as dining facilities, bars, and recreational activities. Membership is usually exclusive, requiring an application and sponsorship from existing members. In modern contexts, the term "gentlemen's club" can also refer to establishments featuring adult entertainment, where performers may dance or engage with patrons. These venues vary widely in atmosphere and services, and they often operate under specific regulations depending on local laws regarding adult entertainment and alcohol service.
