Spearmint Rhino has licence renewed

[sheffbag 227]

I know he did and in the first part of the answer i gave the price and compared it going to the cinema just so people are informed of the actual cost instead of guessing. Obviously when you get in then you have your drinks (as you would if you went to a pub) or if you wished to pay for a dance then it costs more but that is your choice (drinks are cheaper than popcorn and a drink at the cinema or a pint at the Arena too).

 

The rest of the post wasn't directed at Jeffery and shouldn't be taken as such. It was a follow up post to my earlier one taking into account the responses following it.

True, you did say "a lot of views", so not directed at Jeffrey.

[sheffbag 227]

Nope - that was a response to other peoples comments on the thread both before and after my original post.

 

apologies to Jeffers if it was taken as directed at him.

[Detetcive 10]

Excellent news.

 

...for perverts and dirty old men

[Cyclone 10]

Do you know what pervert means?

[alchemist 35]

To be fair to Jeffrey all he said was that it was expensive.

 

Expensive is in the eye of the beholder, and their county of birth

...for perverts and dirty old men

 

And the women who earn their living there. Are you saying that its only perverts and dirty old men that go there? Can you cite the proof?

do you believe that the likes of the Dreamboys, Magic Mike, etc are degrading to the male public as they are only judged on their physical appearance

 

If men in our society were judged primarily on their physical appearance, then yes, it would be degrading to them. As men clearly aren't judged by that, then no, it's not degrading.

in that case then its no different to the women who work at venues. In the scenario and environment given both sexes are viewed upon for their physical appearance and fantasy appeal yet forumsters are being selective in the application to the gender as a whole are they not?

 

So what are men judged on then if not their physical appearance?

The men who are on stage performing or selling their appearance are judged entirely on appearance, much like women doing the same thing.

Other men, not so much. Admittedly women are judged more on appearance than they should be, but the problem isn't strip clubs, male or female, it's those who judge on appearance when it's not important.

it's those who judge on appearance when it's not important.

 

And why do they do that, do you think?

[Cyclone 10]

They don't do it because of strip clubs.

 

But going back to a point I've made several times, if you managed to somehow legislate against strip clubs and close them all down, you would force it underground. It wouldn't disappear, but it would become much more dangerous for the girls.

This argument alone is sufficient reason to not close down strip clubs. It's also why prostitution is legal, and it's why it should be further legalised (brothels, etc.).

The aim should be to make everyone working in the sex industry as safe as is possible, and you can't do that by forcing it all to be hidden from the authorities because it's illegal.

A new update on SSC strip club policy judicial review.

Seems they have conceded that they failed..

 

Odd thing is it was a challenge about changing the limit from 2 to unlimited and yet there are only 2 clubs in Sheffield anyway.
