A video of an Oregon woman using a PowerPoint presentation to creatively reveal her "secret" career as a stripper to her mom and dad has gone viral on TikTok.
The clip, which has now been viewed over 4.8 million times, shows a woman called Lex presenting a slideshow titled "Today I present to you a secret" to her parents.
At the start of the presentation, Lex tells her mom and dad that the secret "doesn't affect anyone" and that she's only sharing it because she loves them and wants them to know "what's going on" in her life.
In the second slide, Lex outlines what her secret "does mean" for her family. "I'm talented, I'm cool, I'm powerful," she explains. Lex then goes on to tell her parents that the secret doesn't mean she is "pregnant or in danger."
The woman then starts a drum roll before excitedly sharing her job as a stripper. "As in I pole dance at a strip club and I love it," the slide reads.
During a "frequently asked questions" section of the presentation, Lex adds that she loves the job because it's in a "sex-positive environment" where she can "express" herself. She notes that she's safe because there's full anonymity and no drugs or "shady business practices" at the Portland strip club she works at.
Her parents later applaud her, and her mom jokes that she had previously guessed the secret. "It just adds more color," her dad comments.
The clip, shared by her sister @mildwestsami, is captioned: "Jokes aside our parents are the literal best, my mom said 'I'm surprised how proud I am.'"
In another TikTok video posted on Friday, Lex posted a video with the caption: "I'm in fight or flight y'all."
