My last post was entitled men so I guess it is only natural for me to comment on a subject I do know and sometimes understand. I say sometimes because on my recent visit home I met up with my sister-in laws for a visit and we got into a pretty heated discussion about pornography. Apparently according to one sister-in law I am not the norm in regards to my opinion about naked woman. Let me clarify I was not discussing naked men because giving the way she objected so stronglyto woman I was not even about to go down the naked man road. Children were also not present during this conversation because although I see nothing wrong with the human body being naked, I do not think my 12 and 9 year old daughters need to be open to it. They will grow up and form their own opinion.
My sister-inlaws see poronography and stripping as evil. Something lower class woman do for money. Ok I understand this opinion and I can say that their is a large portion of woman who strip and pose nude who fall into this category. What I do not like is the fact that they would not even consider other viewpoints.
I went to a private Jesuit College and it was right near a famous strip club. The Foxy Lady for my MA and RI friends. The girls in my dorm were not poor, they did not have drug problems, they did not have an evil pimp pushing them for cash. They danced naked because they could make 1200.00 in a night. Some of them were putting themselves through college, some of them like expensive things that Mom and Dad would not pay for any longer. These were not Lifetime movie woman whose life story would make you break out a box of tissues. These were smart and beautiful woman who knew that they could get a man to fork over 25.00 bucks for a lap dance.
I think what my in laws fail to see is that some of these woman are business woman. They realize that they have a body that men will pay a lot of money to see. This does not make them prostitutes. The last time I checked you are a prostitute if you charge for sex.
I guess I dont understand and never will the insecurity that lurks in woman's closets. If you think your husband or boyfirend will go see a stripper or see a Playboy model and leave you then maybe your relationship needs to be examined. Why can we not just look at a woman and say, "Wow she is beautful." Plus its easier for a woman to give a compliment....just kidding.
I say live and let live. If its not for you then dont buy it, read it or watch it. Dont condem those of us who see nothing wrong with it and appreciate beauty in all its form not just the "right" ones.

Been a while(like 10 years) since I've been to a strip joint. Your strident defense and championing of the cause of strippers everywhere has made me wanna go change a twenty into ones I can feed into some chick's cleavage, pay 6 bucks apiece for two bud lites (2 drink minimum), and buy a test-tube shot some chick will pour down my throat while she's riding my lap. Then she'll fellate the tube. Can't wait to pass through the metal detectors, blow my paycheck and ogle some fake boobs and bleached hair. Or I could do the cheaper version: stay home, save my money, buy GOOD beer and just watch the Anna Nicole show.
I guess you see my point then, my friend. Some of these woman are business minded. My post was on the value of listening to the opinion of others not just about championing strip clubs. I for one have been, but have never been employed by a strip club. I also have never posed nude, for good reason. I think your money is better spent on a woman or hobby that will actually enjoy it and you and not just pretend to, in an effort to get more from you. What do I know anyway!
