    if both the Florida and Kansas 'topless-alcohol' cases get rejected by the US Supreme Court, this would give all states a green light to use their alcohol licensing authority to leverage whatever sort of restrictive regulations they choose.

    I think you are unfortunately correct Melonie... Wonder whatever happened with the Lawrence vs Texas decision being tested on adult-entertainment issues? I can envision this already... Clubs in many states requiring PASTIES (not topless) to avoid the possible severe negative impact on business that could be in the hands of the US Supreme Court....

    We're fucked. Maybe it will take a while, and there will always bes stripclubs, but it's going to hurt a lot of people sooner or later.

    This shouldn't be in club Chat though, I think--I dunno, it's not my call.

    the last I heard, the matter was brought up as a defense in a couple of state level cases. The consensus was that dancers do have a right to engage in whatever level of customer contact they choose as long as it takes place in a 'private' setting and as long as there is no business transaction involved. Unfortunately, the vast majority of clubs are considered to be 'public' (to meet the 'privacy' requirement the VIP room arrangement must be the legal clone of a motel registration), and the vast majority of dancers expect to be paid for their time in the VIP room which brings into play states rights to regulate commerce.
