In a word, yes. Why should a man "suffer" damage to his reputation for doing something that is considered, shall we say, "normal" in the life of most male college students. Why, if that were the case then we would have no one running for office these days. I can assure you that a lot of your "upstanding pillars of the community" have been to parties with either strippers or belly dancers involved in the festivities when they were young. Beleive me, it is no big deal, and normal.
It's not illegal either. NOT ILLEGAL.
This whole thing was a hideous frame-up and pseudo-lynching, and anyone who thinks theres any "justice" whatsoever in what happened here is sick and evil, IMO.
While I agree with you that newgeezer is off the deep end concerning these men's reputations, I take issue with what you consider "normal behavior" for young American males. I'm sure quite a few men in this nation have not utilized the services of a stripper. I'm one.
