I used to live in a city with a similar ban, only it was 6' instead of 4'. This ordinance was only "enforced" around election time. The dry humps only ceased from the end of September to the first Wednesday in November.

You guys need to come to Montreal...



BRING MONEY!!!

Does the "look but don't touch rule" apply to the stripper who bangs your face between her boobs in order to get a dollar from you?

Providence strip clubs used to use "why look when you can touch" as an advertising slogan to distinguish themselves from the no-touching-allowed clubs in Massachusetts.

is today "obvious news story" day or what? and just for the record, i want contact dancing, but im not going to farking canada to get it. bring it to good ole' new jersey!

/dont hate canada

"This is ground zero for general liberalism," said Schwartz , "but people's sensitivities even in liberal communities get aroused when they hear a strip club may be opening up in their backyard."

I tend to get aroused when I got to strip clubs too.

/there is no sex in the champagne

can i still pretend that they like me for me?

Trifectas make me feel all tingly.

You can't touch.. but if you're nice.. .you can ask the strippers to touch you.

You guys need to come to Montreal...

Or (if you can't get to Montreal) you can also go to Tampa.

In the champagne room that is

...and I never went to Seattle again.

Bek - yes.. there was an Amusing trifecta earlier. There was an obvious trifecta yesterday as well.

second montreal... or toronto... or ottawa

Come down to Florida.

They let you lick'em for an extra $5.

This way you don't get that stripper smell on you which is nice. Don't act like you don't know it either.

I can touch myself when I get home.

I don't understand why people even go to strip clubs. The end game of having naked or scantily-clad women around is to have sex with them, and when so much as touching one means getting your ass kicked, who would be stupid enough to spend time and money cockteasing themselves?

/wouldn't go to one anyway
//strippers almost always look like shiat
///and strip clubs are sleazy dumps with fitting customers

Not in Montreal!! Woohoo!

That's funny, cuz on my recent bachelor's party in Vegas, my first ever trip to a strip club (The Olympic Garden, to those who know it) involved a whole lotta touching during lap dances. They had me grabbing them all over while grinding me to no end. I felt like every "rule" I heard about strip clubs was made up, and that I was free to do as I pleased!

/One of my friends was forced to stop them, otherwise things were about to get messy!
//That needs 2 slashes it's so funny.
///Didn't end up with a brown streak down a white shirt either.

Could be worse.

I was passing through Oklahoma one time, and went to a strip club in OKC. Maybe I shouldn't call it that, because they wore clothes. And pasties. I went to another one, same thing.

What a sucky place that was.

Man, the one on one clubs in Phoenix not only let you touch but you can get as naked as the strippers, for a price of course......

Seattle is starting to sound like Minneapolis.

lucyfer

Do you really expect NJ to get contact strip clubs when you can't even serve alcohol when the girls are naked??

Ijustworkhere: Come down to Florida. They let you lick'em for an extra $5.

Yeah, but if the stripper thinks you are licking her in a threatening manner, then she can shoot your ass!

No thanks!

"I think the city should protect neighborhoods, but it shouldn't restrain a legitimate business."

HooBoy!That one gets a chuckle out of me.

mugen.

spoken like someone who's never been to a strip club. in fact, it's obvious you've never been to one - a good one anyway. too bad.

Again, you can thank our mayor Greg Nickels (D - Seattle) for this lovely display of a Nanny State.

We are so progressive here in Seattle that I'm surprised that sex is still legal. After all, as we all know from Womyns Studies 101 that Sex is really just another form of rape. Worse, we know that sex leads to sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancy, probably more frequently than strip clubs lead to crime.

I say the city council needs to abolish all sex now. Do it for the children!

I say we post strip clubs that are loose with the no-touch rule. I'll start...

Barbary Coast, South Los Angeles.

I went to a strip joint in Vegas on a stag weekend. Touched the stripper all I wanted. I commented that here in Blighty were not allowed to touch in these sorts of clubs, she told me we're not supposed to touch them in vegas either. She did nothing to stop me, she had fantastic boobies :)

Grither:

well, there is always the elizabeth/newark clubs that dont really care. but you do have to worry about the std's and babies fathers. i guess.

freeleee

Man, the one on one clubs in Phoenix not only let you touch but you can get as naked as the strippers, for a price of course......

You don't have to go to the one on one clubs to touch. The level of contact varies from club to club and within the club from girl to girl. For the most part as long as you don't touch the boobies or the bikini areas you are cool.

Every now and then you get the girl who not only lets you touch the boobage but tells you too. They might even let you suck on the boobies too.

Of course they can touch wherever they want... The good ones will stroke you a bit (over your pants of course).

Beansnappers, just north of Appleton WI. But only if there aren't many customers there.

Aw, comb your hair, lose a few pounds, brush your teeth and go get a REAL girl for yourself.
Save the money for KY...

\Wednesday! Woo Hoo!
\\Wednesday is our SPECIAL night (probably NOT what you're thinking)

i guess in vegas it depends. i think for fully nude places you're not allowed to touch and they aren't allowed to touch you. i think technically in the topless ones you're not suppsoed to touch them but they can touch you and often they don't care either way.

when i went to OG (Olympic Gardens), for the two lap dances i got the girl (diff girls) encouraged me to touch.

Spearmint Rhino around Gardena, CA seemed pretty lax with the "no-touching" rule. I didn't know how far I could go, so I touched. The most she said was for me to "relax" ... she never did tell me to stop, though.

but they are uncomfortable with the possibility of strip clubs operating in family-filled neighborhoods, said Pepper Schwartz, a sociology professor at the University of Washington.

It's called ZONING idiots!! Zone it for specific areas away from where most children are. Besides I don't really understand what the big deal is if a child sees a strip club. Just seems to me a lot of parents scared to death talking to their kids about anything that has to do with sex. Seems to me a city council could work WITH stripclubs to make it so the signs and facades were not too risque and everyone would be happy. But damn city councils always want to act tough on anything like that. So instead they get both sides fighting each other and no one is happy.

There's a strip club on the outskirts of Lawrence, Kansas. It's called The Outhouse.
Coolness factors:

#1: It's BYOB. Coolers full of your own beer allows them the 'juice bar' status, which in turn allows for full nudity.
#2: It's open till 5am.
#3: College town, hot girls.
#4: You can lie down on the stage. As long as your arms don't move an inch, you can have a dancer dance her tata's or hoo-hoo about an inch from your nose. At the end of the song, she'll squish her tatas around your mouth, where it's customary to be holding a dollar bill.

Warnings:
#1: The girls drink with you sometimes.
#2: Not a terribly high-class place...I mean, it's called The Outhouse for crying out loud. The girls are pretty though.
#3: If you move a milimeter during the stage dance, they'll kick you out, no questions asked.
#4: Don't ever tell them it's your birthday unless you want a bruised member.

"she said was for me to "relax" ... she never did tell me to stop, though."

Hey! When a girl say to relax, she means it!

In Tampa Florida there is a strip club called Mons Venus. There you can touch all you want except between the legs. Yes sir....you can grope those boobies all you want.

Flaknugget...

I've been in that club. Is that Club Super Sex?

/Dosen't remember alcohol fueled week in Montreal.

Oh, forgot an important coolness factor. Full contact lap dances. Anything that's not covered, you can touch. (Lap dances are typically bottom-covered.)

So let me get this straight, in Washington state it's legal to get farked by a horse, but no touchy, touchy in the strip clubs. Okaaaayy.

totalsecurity: Could be worse.

I was passing through Oklahoma one time, and went to a strip club in OKC. Maybe I shouldn't call it that, because they wore clothes. And pasties. I went to another one, same thing.

What a sucky place that was.

So that's like a "tease bar" then... Seriously, why even bother? Just go to the pool or a beach or something.

I've been to sleazy strip clubs and half-naked-stage-productions... and I appreciate beauty... and I like getting turned on... and it's fun once or twice.... but I'm with mugen here - why pay to tease yourself? If you want to pay, just get a hooker and be done with it, or better yet, hit town and let the girlies tease you for free.

/shatner is that you?

I've always thought the seats in stripjoints should have manacles. But I'm freaky like that.

Go to Houston...

Treasures will suffice....

/HJ's a plenty

I believe this is how seeing the outside of a strip scarred me as a child:

"Hey mom, what is that over there?"

"It's a strip club dear."

"What's that?"

"It's a place where women get naked for men to look at."

"Oh. ok. Can we go to McDonalds I am hungry?"

I think that was about the conversation.

best club in tampa is ybor strip.

Flair:

It will always be remember as a punk club to me, but if the punk is gone, bust out the mammalian protuberances.

Once went to a place out in Mohave(yes, this is how it's spelled) Valley, Arizona. Even the lap dances there were completely nude, and the girls kept trying to get us to pay to go into the VIP room. At $150 it didn't seem worth it to us, but I'm somehow guessing that, given the $20 lap dances we full nude, the 30 minute session in the VIP room might have been a wee bit out of hand.

"So let me get this straight, in Washington state it's legal to get farked by a horse, but no touchy, touchy in the strip clubs. Okaaaayy."

No, no, no!
It's not that it's legal to have sex with a horse, it's just not illegal.
We have freedom here... er, the horses do....
