Because legislating personal morality for morality's sake is fucking retarded and gay. If some dumb cunt wants to rub her ass all over some fat slob's insignificant penis for dollar bills, then by golly she should be able to. By legislation stupid shit like that, you take away women's personal choice and set back women's rights and put them into the spotlight focussing another thing women can't do.

Besides, most strippers and lap dancers are stupid idiots who would otherwise be sucking on welfare or whoring themselves on the streets. There are less paying roles in society for stupid women over stupid men, who can generally get a job doing anything. There will always be fake blonde skanks who will do practically anything for the right amount of cash. There will always be stupid, ugly men with low self-esteem with that cash. It is the natural order of things. It is what seperates us from animals.

Legislating it is just going to force it underground and make the police and other law enforcers spend even MORE time and money focussing on that instead of going after real criminals that run rampant all over the place. Did you know last year in New York City, over 200,000 man hours and millions of dollars was spent for the vice squads to fight prostitution, mostly in sting operations with phony prostitutes or johns setting up an encounter and then arresting the offender. 200,000 man hours and all that money and every single person in that entire city is no more than 5 minutes from a prostitute. Meanwhile gangs and muggers and armed robbers and murderers roam around some streets and neighboorhoods like they own them.

Trying to outlaw lap dancing in Las Vegas is like trying to outlaw sunlight. What is the fucking point? It's moronic, it's 99.9% harmless and it is going to cost MILLIONS of dollars more per year to enforce.

It will only get worse

This is just one of the latest stupid things to hit Las Vegas as they try and compete with Indians and save some business. They are trying to make themselves out to be some kind of new age Disneyland and get people to bring their kids and see the shows and crap.

I actually read that article a day or two ago and feminazi was the first thought that came to my mind. It makes me sick to think about people trying to force their morality ideas on me. If I want to have some whore rub herself all over me for $20 then that is my business. I have talked to many women in the "biz" and they aren't all completely idiotic. Most realize that they only have a few good years in the business and make an obscene amount of money doing so during that time. What is our right to take that away from them. I have talked to my wife about it and she would never do anything like that to earn money but if someone else wants to then they should feel free to do so.

If they want to pass a law then they should pass one requiring an age limit. If I have to see another 50ish looking dame in a stripclub again then I am going to get sick. I wouldn't mind a weight limit one either. They makes em big in Wisconsin here.

Not to worry folks! All such bullshit morality laws have failed here in Florida, so y'all come on down and get yer cocks grinded by silicone augmented hotties!

Seriously, the Tampa city council passed a "six foot ordnance" that specifies that customers must be at least 6 feet away from a nekkid dancer. Me and an old girlfriend went to Mons Venus that night and, if anything, the girls were MORE wild and nasty.

They are currently trying to ban strip clubs in Arlington but due to the amount of money that is grossed for the city they won't do it. I think they will figure it out eventually that the county will loose part of it's money due to this ruling.

I do agree with Kyoukan though. A male judge probally would have never brought the subject up.

If I didn't know any better, I'd say you had something against strippers.

I can't believe no one Jackassed Deward yet. So hey Deward, JACKASS to you.

I agree with what you say completely.

I feel that the state should be the pimp daddy and legalize prostitution so we can collect the tax $$ on it. That's make a difference.

> Besides, most strippers and lap dancers are
> stupid idiots

Some women make up to $1000 a night (granted, on busy nights) without having to prostitute themselves out. A lot of college attending women do it simply for the high amount of money that they can make in a little amount of time. Same with nude modeling on web sites. Not being shy about their body doesn't make someone a stupid idiot.

Besides, men are stupid idiots enough to pay them - why not take the money.

We're not stupid idiots for paying to see it.

We just understand, at times, high quality comes with a high price. <cough>
