I would like all of you guys who read this to NOT RESPOND WITH REASONS WHY WE CANNOT FIGHT THE WAR ON THE STRIPPER BUSINESS AND WIN!!!!
As I heard on TV the other week by an artist that does artwork with nude bodies, that the US sees sex as dirty and a crime, and he had to take his work to Europe.
I am tired of hearing the word stripper used so much by lay people. The stereotype of our industry MUST be changed BY US!
The US is a shitty country even though it may be better than others.The political process here is controlled by older people with financial security that have a vested interest in keeping politics and the way this country operates the way it is. The more successful a person is in this society the least likely they are to want change.
Our industry is being legislated out of business city by city and state by state and we as dancers are doing nothing to stop it!
Melonie is very knowledgeable about the political process and offers a lot of reasons why thinks can't change, but let's look at creative ways you guys that we can put up a fight and let people who have never been in a strip club see the business first hand and attempt to erode the stereotype.
This site can be a springboard one city at a time in negotiating with city councils and neighborhood groups and in bringing single clubgoers, dancers and young people together to support our cause.
I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY NEGATIVE POSTS GUYS!!!! BE CREATIVE. WHAT IDEAS NO MATTER HOW OFF THE WALL THEY ARE DO YOU HAVE ABOUT HOW WE CAN NEGOTITE WHAT WE NEED TO BRING THIS BUSINESS BACK TO LUCRATIVENESS?
Young people and many non whites don't vote and get involved in the political process as it is run by old white people out of touch with the average 18-30 year old. If we can capture young people who smoke weed, have liberal attitudes about sex and who hate the govt, which many ordinary people feel but don't get involved, we can beat the old family type mentality that is especially over the last 2 years destined to close every club in the country.
You dancers who are afraid to come out of the closet hurt our cause. Those of us who dance but don't want our men in a club or who see sex as dirty are hurting our cause.
Granted we don't need dopehead girls representing our cause but many of us can organize enough liberal thinking people, dancers included who can fight hard to CHANGE OUR SYSTEM in this country. The sytem is the problem and all of you that say it won't work have to focus on changing politics by force and not by following the system.
Clubs in danger of being closed used to gather signatures and constantly have DJ's announce we need your help guys and now it is a quiet fight.
We don't need more lawyers. They work within the suystem to change things. WE HAVE TO FIGHT THE SYSTEM AND GET LIBERAL PEOPLE ESPECIALLY THE YOUNG AND ALL DANCERS TO PUSH HARD TO GET OUR WAY.
No negative why this won't work comments please?
Throw out some creative off the wall ideas of how we can try to salvage this business. It's time for us to stop worrying about what other people think of us and come out of the closet and bring the millions of others like us out of the closet too.
Decriminalization of marijuana and a full gay rights package is in the same realm as liberalization of the gentlemens club business. Millions of people smoke weed, are gay, work and patronize GC's and we need to mobilize them and let people who stereotype our clubs as bad and breeding crime in their neighborhoods see the knids of people who go in them first hand and start working on eradicating the negative sterotypes NOW before we have no jobs.
ONLY POSITIVE COMMENTS ON HOW WE CAN DO THIS NO WET BLANKETS PLEASE! DON'T WORRY HOW CRAZY YOUR IDEAS ARE. THE CRAZIER THE IDEAS,THE MORE THEY MAY HELP ACCOMPLISH OUR GOALS! :o :o

), certainly couldn't hurt matters. Maybe get some of the more athletic dancers to start a recreation volleyball or softball team sponsored by your club.
