    Angry Houston Dancers

    Everyone is mad because they have to wear booty shorts and latex starting May 1st. I've been doing this since I started dancing anyways so it really doesn't peave me. This new thing effects all dancers liscensed and unliscensed. I'm sure some clubs are going to be lenient with it, but why would you want to show more to make the same as some are making showing less? Latex is a pain, but its not really that big of a deal. Pasties are not legal either 3' inches of latex around the nipple is how your going to stay out of jail. Oh yeah, supposedly if one girl is caught without the latex and full backs then all the girls are supposed to get in trouble... that doesn't sound fair or reasonable.

    All i know is there are signs posted everywhere in most of the clubs. The girls have been talking about the same thing we've heard it from management not just from one club from all the clubs.

    ...redhothoney is right. As far as the Jackpot clubs, management is telling the girls that they are going "bikini" in May (wondering about or expecting eminent action by the city due to the recent court ruling). The ordinance has not changed yet. Some girls are hearing 2 inches latex instead of 3 inches. Management is throwing out a number to make sure girls are covered should vice make a visit. However, if one girl gets caught, other independent contractors don't automatically get in trouble. If the city files certain charges, they could come in and put locks on the doors just as they did to Evan Lowenstein spa's.

    PS. liberator, nude w/BYOB or topless w/alcohol sales, same as Dallas.

    WiseGuy,
    If the clubs go "bikini". Will that alone, allow them to not be in violation of the new SOB.

    It seems like the shoe has been falling for quite a while in Houston. What do you hear about when they are going to start enforcement of the SOB, and try to close clubs?

    ....those are very good questions. The SOB ordinance laws have not changed yet. Generally, if you are not showing your areola and butt/crotch then you probably don't fall under several ordinance's classified as SOB (however, there are other ordinance passages that my still be SOB depending on interpretation). The concept is that by going bikini and not showing skin, the clubs essentially become a glorified Hooters and no club SOB license is required.

    Everyone has been in court over the 1500 foot rule of which the SOB's lost. This article gives a hint as to when and how, if at all, the city may proceed. The mayor went on a TV morning show and said, due to the court ruling, he expects all current SOB's to be closed/moved by the end of the year. It could begin as soon as next month, i haven't heard anything definite.

    One hypothetical scenario .....first, they select a few or all SOB's and "notify businesses violating the proximity rule and ask them to comply". This way they seem like they were nice and made an effort to give SOB's reasonable time to move. The city hopes clubs will move and thereby not lose liquor tax sales. Second, they go into clubs and build a list of SOB violations. You know, such as those 25% of girls doing more than dancing. Third, they file a civil injunction or wait for their SOB license to expire. Fourth, vice then targets a few, files charges, locks'em down, plays it up in the press, expecting the other SOB's to run. Fifth, (now being classified as a non-SOB glorified Hooters) the clubs counter by putting up 20 very large signs next to various suburb grocery stores around town that say "Future Home of Treasures Gentlemens Club". The community freaks out and puts pressure on the mayor to leave the clubs where they are. Sixth, many actually move, money is still made because customers, perv's and regulars don't mind driving to the ends of the earth to see a naked boob.

    Of course, who knows what will really happen. For all we know, more legal action could be taking place delaying everything.

    SOB = Sexually Oriented Business, and SC's (Strip Clubs), require an SOB license in Houston.

    Blech this is nothing new to me. The entire state or Virginia is like that(pasties/undies)... because it's a Commonwealth... so fucking LAME if you ask me. Which is why alot of people go to DC or Maryland to dance. You have the free LOVELY option for full nudity. Which in my opinion is the only reason to dance. Its very freeing
