Field Reports

Field reports are long, in-depth reports of various phenomena I’ve researched around the world.

Strip Club report 2/2

She was deep inside of the club, her long hair tied up in a bun at the back of her head. Naked, she gyrated her hips in the middle of three seated men, gracefully strutting on a sixpence in her thick platform-heeled boots.
