Changing the law will allow councils to say NO to lap dancing clubs and CRUCIALLY, will see the licensing of lap dancing clubs become a gender equality issue.
Here's why it is a gender equality issue, as described by Sarah, a woman who previously worked in a club:
``
I don't know anywhere you get paid a wage. You pay the club £10 up to £80 for being there. They weren't concernedsome performers went away having not earned anything. ...
I used to tell clients I was doing a degree in Russian and they'd be visually intimidated and would clam up. They'd
want a bimbo who'd be subordinate to them. A degree was like pouring cold water over their privates. I learnt
from that mistake....
A lot of people would drink a lot to get through it or turn up for work drunk. 90% were drunk by the end of the night.
So they were more vulnerable
