My wife of all people sent me this study of 18 lap dancers. 5300 lap dances later the statistics were in. Where a dancer was in their mestrual cycle appeared to impact their income:

Of the 11 women with normal menstrual cycles, those in the estrous phase pulled in about $70 an hour--compared with $50 for those in the luteal phase, and only $35 an hour for those who were menstruating. The other seven women were on birth control pills. They earned less across the board, and there was no peaking at the estrous phase.
