re: Man-hating strippers...)))

Which came first, the stripping or the hate? In logic, the cart is always getting in front of the horse.

Strippers are an interesting bunch. Sometimes they are drug abusers, needing quick money. Sometimes just college girls, wanting to see what their pretty shapes will bring them on the market. The experience on the dance floors do bad things to their minds--often they embark on a long flirtation with lesbianism because they become so disillusioned with men. But the strip-joint attracts jerks...of course that's what she'll see.

It's like an exchange I had recently with a FR fellow who wanted to compare women to overripe fruit. Yuck. He disdained womenkind because the kind he met in bars turned out not to have Sunday School morals. It's all in where you look.

If you want to know all about the psychology and sociology of exotic dancers, hang around an emergency room for awhile. They get lots of diseases, you see. And such creative tattoos.

In the case of this particular woman,she is a college student,and she has found stripping pays well.I feel she is well entitled to do whatever she wishes,after all it's a free country,but I just feel after all she has said in the past about men exploiting women and men treating women as sex objects,it is a little strange that she would work as a stripper.But money motivates people to do alot of things you would never expect.Maybe she views this advocation as getting back at men by exploiting them.What she done is just let her body be reduced to a mere product,and this seems contrary to her stated principals in the past.
