Bad timing. Think how cool a disaster movie would be with a volcano erupting and the only survivors sheltering in a strip club as the molten lava slides inexorably towards them.

And THEN the strippers turned in to zombies

Have to love the patronizing attitudes that could produce this:
QuoteI have visited a strip club in Reykjavik and observed the women. None of them looked happy in their work.

Having never been to a strip club, I couldn't tell you how "happy" Philadelphian or American strippers seem to be in their work.   But I have seen an endless amount of female waitresses, bartenders, secretaries, and fast-food employees who looked positively miserable in their work...
Strippers always look "happy" with their work to me.  They fucking better, or no more Benjamins.  :mad:

They had 2, then there was 1 now there is none. The clubs suxxored in the sense that walking into an almost empty club none of the strippers come up to you.

The entire attraction of the strip club is the strippers trying to pick me up.. even if it is just to get me to buy a lapdance.

First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

No loss then, except the one of freedom.

meh... lets just wait until we get one of our normal old lecherous men back and we'll have our strip clubs back.. though I hope this makes the clubs better though... being moral about strip clubs is possible for us when we don't have the benjamins to frequent them anymore :contract:

I find the idea of Icelandic strippers... intriguing.  :cool:

The only thing that I find more intriguing is the idea of Afghani strippers (assuming they are in fact HOTT under those burqas). :perv:

"Most friendly to females?"  Only if the female isn't a lesbo interested in seeing a stripper. :(

We must liberate these poor, trampled masses.
Experience bij!

Yet more proof that giving women the vote was a bad idea.  They can't handle the responsibility.

Well, I think it clearly does.  :huh:  A ban on strip clubs enacted due to religious pressure for the sake of public morals has a different signification than one advocated for by feminist groups.  It demonstrates the relative importance of the group advocating it, and feminist groups have traditionally held much less political sway than religious groups.  So I think the distinction is a valid one.

One group has a puritanical need to enforce its ideology on others using guilt and the power of the state.  The other does also.

Big difference.

But anyway I am sure the women who enjoy making money this way will have no problem getting to their clientele regardless of what certain prudes say.  They always do.

Thinking about it, this is kind of an interesting counterpoint to the burqa/etc. debates; at what point does a woman's self-presentation cease being an expression of individual agency and become the expression of systemic exploitation?  And what is the state's role in identifying and legislating this distinction?

Ah the old white slavery, we need to free the poor innocent prostitutes and strippers thing again.  Of course studies have usually shown that most adult female strippers and prostitutes freely chose their profession without coercion but facts have never stopped the puritans and prudes in society before.  God forbid women be allowed to make choices on their own, THEY MUST BE EXPLOITED VICTIMS!!  Oh Em Gee!

Like most professions the best ones are the ones who enjoy the job.  You can usually pick out the ones who do not want to be there....or so I have heard.
