17. Well, to be fair, most strip joint women make out pretty well and there are rules.

Now prostitutes are an entirely different situation and not at all in favor of the women. But I've worked (in professional situations) with women who had second jobs as strippers and in many cases they made more in one night than they did in a week on salary. I took the courtesy of not visiting their places of evening performances. I'm not going to degrade them for that choice. If it works for them, I'm cool with it. Hookers, on the other hand, are generally abused, degraded, underpaid, and subservient. That's just not right.
