What the hell is the matter with me? I used to be the kind of guy that would get over-served on adult beverages once every five years and then think it was a good idea to roll into a 'Gentlemen's Club' giggling like a 'Tickle Me Elmo' doll whilst drinking six dollar beers and ogling boobies. Now, I see an article in U.K.'s student newspaper and I go all Second Wave Feminist. (CLICK ON THE TITLE OF THIS ENTRY FOR FULL ARTICLE)
You see, I thought stripping was viewed by many as the objectification of women. Especially viewed this way by young, progressive women. You know, the kind you find at a university. Like the University of Kentucky, for instance. However, I am not sure of that anymore.
If you click on the link above, you'll find a story that was on the front page of the Kentucky Kernel October 30, written by a young college woman. In a nutshell she says that if you are a young college woman and need money for college, you should, like, definitely give stripping a go.
The newspaper interviewed a college student/stripper and found that -"She could go to work in the evening, attend classes during the day, use a fun fake name, play dress up and dance on a stage."
Shit, that sounds like something my daughter would like to do.
What? You have to take your clothes off too?
Er, nevermind.
Look, I don't think strip clubs are the bane of society. But to publish an article so pro-stripping makes me wonder why Deja Vu doesn't have a table set up at U.K.'s career day.
Maybe they're afraid company representatives will start dancing on it. Ba dum dum.
But seriously folks, there is nary a negative point made by the author, which surprises me because its fairly common knowledge that Strip Club clientele often include a few creeps here and there, while there's enough cocaine around to make Antonio Montana nervous.
I guess what I'm saying is, don't girls go to college so they can find a job with a better professional environment than stripping? Should college women find this article offensive?
Oh, and before I sign off, I should point out that this wonderful article does not just dole out money making tips to college women. Guys can make some quick cash too, as long as they're willing to donate sperm. My favorite part is when they describe the sperm donation process as "painless". Seriously, it says that, you should read it.
