Lil’ Bit Jus’ A Lil’ Bit Words by Eric N. Perrin

his is the story of Lil Bit, a 19-year-old Atlanta native who left her job working as a cashier at Chick-Fil-A to become a chick on display at another ATL spot known for its buttered buns. “I worked at Chick-Fil-A for two years,” she laments “I hated it. They work you way too much for basically nothing. Strokers pays a lot better.” While many young girls begin stripping to pay for college tuition or to take care of their own children, Lil Bit had a slightly different reason for needing the fast money that her fast food job couldn’t provide. “When I graduated from high school my mom had gotten really sick, and I had to start dancing to take care of her,” says Lil Bit. If it’s one thing Lil Bit has learned in her year and a half of dancing, it’s that many people adapt negative views towards strippers without fully understand their circumstances. “I think a lot of guys consider all strippers as being fast or promiscuous,” she says. “But we’re not all like that. I know I’m not like that.” When the brown-skinned cutie isn’t at work or taking care of her mother, she’s busy playing mommy to her three younger siblings. “I have a little brother who’s twelve and a twin brother and sister who are 6. I love being able to take care of them, and I just want to make sure that they have the opportunities and experiences I never had.” Though she didn’t inherit the type of opportunities she’s creating for her brothers and sister, Lil’ Bit is making her own way, and eventually plans on leaving her pole position to pursue her dreams of interior design.”I’d love to design houses or hotels. But my ultimate goal is to one day design my own strip club,” admits the angel Aquarius with a bright smile. “A year from now I would love to be in school somewhere and no longer dancing,” she says. “I’ve wanted to be an interior designer since I was 7, and that’s what I’m going to do.” //
