Probably smarter than taking out tens of thousands of dollars in student loans. Better for the taxpayer, too. This way, when these women graduate with their Master’s Degree in Feminist Theater or Post-Modern Art or Transgender Studies or whatever and find themselves completely unemployable outside of a strip club or a McDonald’s, neither they nor the taxpayers will be on the hook for their useless educations, and they’ll already have a source of employment.
A very slippery pole to perdition
Unfortunately, prolonged misuse of a word does eventually become accepted usage. Or maybe it’s not unfortunate, since we’d all be speaking some archaic dialect otherwise. The English language does evolve.
I’ll hold out on this one, though. “Strait” means confined, as in the Straits of Magellan. Thus, in my opinion, it should be “straitlaced”. Same with the generally misused “straitjacket”, which I would be wearing if I worried too much about such things.

That's money that could support the MRAs who are fighting the injustices men are always complaining about.
Just so. The few times that I have been to a strip club, what was really noticeable was the contempt of the strippers for the customers, and vice versa. No one seemed to be actually enjoying the experience.

Generally speaking, quite well-deserved contempt, in both directions.
I realize it’s right. I just find it amusing.
Sigh.....Maggie probably doesn't even know what that is.
The father’s primary duty is to keep is daughter off that brass pole.
Get her real name and drop a dime on her to the IRS. 10% finders fee.
Yes....just the way most of them don’t have the nuts to say there is no such word as “conversated” because so many black people use it.
There is usage (useage?) and there is useage. But because some people refuse to learn the proper form doesn’t make it right.
Also “strait and narrow,” which very few people know these days.
Where you can swear like a sailor, and wish you could nail her...at the nudie bar!
Websters-all-permissible doesn’t surprise me, but Oxford does.
It’s not just misspelled. It’s a misnomer. Strait doesn’t mean “straight.” The phrase “straight-laced” has no sensible meaning.
