First, I don't know for a fact that our "future marine biologist" may not really BE a future marine biologist. Second, there is no doubt that drug activity takes place in many clubs- a quick reading of the daily newspaper will tell you that. But, if you are going to talk about "sexual abuse" and "violence", you may want to be a tad more specific.
Glad to see you've already backed off your foolish "nothing wrong at all" statement. Keep reading the newspapers and see how many violent crimes occur around the strip club culture. Young women enter the profession for a number of desperate reasons, offering themselves up to horny males, for they lack the necessary support or self-esteem to succeed elsewhere. They rarely leave as a more refined, educated, and well-adjusted person. Do you think they really enjoy, deep down, long hours of shaking their bare bodies to drunken strangers? Do you think that has no detrimental effect on their psyches? Many strippers become lesbians because they tire so of seeing the worst of male behavior every night. The few who actually escape the lifestyle and go on to lead a full, accomplished life do so in spite of their stripping career, not because of it.

There may be SOME truth to what you are saying; at the same time, it sounds suspiciously reminicient of something Betty Freidan or Gloria Steinem talked about once.
