Well I mean, you are a radfem, but like, his responses don't really suggest a consideration on his part for what he responds to, based on the triteness of them.

Can I be somewhere between ModFem and RadFem? Because being hard-line on sexual abuse, and opposing gender roles and gender stereotypes, is not really being a RadFem. All those things I listed? I don't believe.

Reminds me of American Dad when Hayley works in a strip club.

"At least i'm not being exploited like these poor strippers."

"All these girls do is show off their breasts and men hand over their hard earned dollars. So really, who's being exploited here?"

The sad part is how many people would watch that, and think that's a reasonable and legitimate commentary.

To the people who want to shut the strip club down I say shut it down and help the unemployed women find jobs elsewhere.

Only if they're engaged in illegal sex trafficking or any kind of sexual abuse, that's when they should shut it down. I take it this one wasn't doing that? Then let it go. Hell, aren't there male strip clubs? I know they exist. Something for the ladies, lol. Then again, my only experience is that Pauly Shore movie, Jury Duty. And he... was not that much of a looker. :P

The Authorities say that the club is offering...'illegal services,' and claim to have evidence to back it up.

Not really relevant, but I kinda just imagine most clubs do stuff behind doors. Could be wrong of course, I've never been to a place like that.

Sure. Most are smart enough to not get caught. ;)

But if they get caught then, then yes, shut it down. This kind of shit is the most underreported and underpunished crime despite being worse than murder, so yes, if they're guilty, shut 'em down and let's go after them, boys. 8-)
