A group of adult dancers says they aren’t getting a fair shake...
The dancers say now that clubs have to pay the women an hourly wage, management has been keeping a much larger chunk of their tips. They also claim that some clubs have been stealing their wages and charging dancers new fees ever since the new ruling, and they want it to stop.
“We no longer should have to pay to work. We shouldn’t have to pay house fees, we shouldn’t have to give a percentage of our tips to management or any other employees, and we want to stop the sexual harassment and assault in the clubs,” said dancer Domino Ray.
The group, which was joined by a representative from #MeToo, says the ruling has its upsides and downsides. Now that they are classified as employees, the dancers have a right to unionize, which they plan to utilize

And—what was the punchline?
Excellent comment.
Strippers bitching ??
I’ve heard they can make some good money. Not to say there aren’t headaches with the job, but, those who do you think choose to do it, instead of a different type of job.
“Because she has seniority.”
Ok - is this a joke? A group of strippers wants to stop sexual harassment? Is it sexual harassment when someone sticks a $20 in whatever it is you’re wearing?
TTIWWOP
It seems to me that it is the law of unintended consequences in play when a woman removes her clothing in a room filled with intoxicated men that sexual harassment is pretty much what they are paying for. Yea?
When. You stick your money in her skimpy outfit, you are getting very close to some of the danger zones. Are we going to say that everyone has assaulted her??
PLEASE DO NOT HARASS THE STRIPPERS
Thanks BenLurkin. It figures MeToo would get involved, the entertainment industry is just glorified stripping at this point.
This is all very sad . . . their only Hope is Jesus for a happy ending. . . besides His benefits are out of this world :)
You omitted a critical tag on your post!

what was the punchline....
One of the strippers said, we could have it worse.
In those Arab countries the girls have to compete for tips from the guys during a wet burka contest.
In other news...prostitutes are demanding palimony from johns after 15 minute quickies.
To gain evidence this is all true one of the strippers offered to wear a wire. She never found out why the detective laughed.
“How much did you make, Griselda?”
“Sixty-two dollars and twenty-five cents.”
“What? Which lousy bastard gave you twenty-five cents?”
“They all did.”
This is MSM baloney. Actually the ladies whose employers are doing this are shocked when they get their paychecks with taxes and FICA taken out for the tips.
This is the government trying to find a way to tax these ladies booties.
Maybe you better re-read your job description...
Most strippers are not prostitutes - most are lacking other skills paying for school or trying to get by. My mother was a stripper in the burlesque era and the only man who paid her for anything but performing was my father...after the divorce.
