Boradis:
I have to agree with Steve in the strip, and not for the feminazi reasons that Cosette imagines, but because it reminds one that there are other women out there who can get you interested. It can also help to painlessly put emotional distance between oneself and one's ex (assuming visiting titty bars wasn't something you and she did together).

As for Cosette, I think it would be funny for her to talk to any of the strippers I've known. She'd get a very different take on who's being "degraded" and "objectified" at a titty bar. If I could make several hundred bucks by taking off my pants in front of women, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Hell, if I could make that much money by taking my pants off in front of other men I would.

As for the "women enjoy strippers as much as men, so it's OK" argument, it would be fascinating to compare the relative numbers of men and women employed in the profession. If, as I suspect, stripping is disproportionally a female occupation, it probably means that perving at strippers is mainly a male activity. And I wonder what percentage of the strip-clubs are owned by women?

You would be wrong here, as there is often a lot of overlap (the only exception to this is in the South, where strip clubs with male strippers aren't exactly advertised) with the larger clubs having sections that cater to both women and men.

Carl-E:
Maybe in a really metropolitan area, but nowhere I've ever lived.  And no, I'm not in the south, nor in a rural area - small cities and university towns, mainly.  Chipplendales come through every once in a while at some of them, and they advertise a ladies' night, but no permanent catering to the distaff population. 

And clearly, I've shown wayyy  too much knowledge on the subject for your average family man...

Wrong about what? The disproportionate employment? So there are as many male strippers in the USA as female ones? I find that surprising, I must admit...

(the original idea of Hill/Pythons/Blackadder was almost perfect, if Benny hill would be changed to Fawlty/Office, that would be massive overdose if brilliant comed, IMHO)

Yup, I'm fan of britcom, i know..  :roll:

Why am I not surprised to see Blackadder on your list? :-)

I never got much out of Hill/Python. My BritCom laughs are induced by Wooster&Jeeves and Yes, (prime) minister. Mr Bean is somewhere in between. It's probably just me...
