Because its a sad indictment of the men and women if paying for a woman or a man to dance in skimpy clothes for them is what they get their rocks off to. And yes they do get ripped off, some clubs charge membership fees, entrance fees, and then the drinks are overpriced as well.

Dont know about the other side of the border but in some areas of Scotland local authorities actually stringently monitor these clubs and local police regularly check them. Maybe its the kirk upbringing of the councillors and police or maybe its they like watching scantily clad women gyrate for others.

And its not the only way for many of the women to make money, its the easiest and in some aspects its fairly safe. In a lot of cases they make a lot of money for very little work.

There will of course be the seedier side to this form of establishment, which should be restricted. Proper regulation of the encounter industry should be introduced, bearing in mind in some cases this will be a two edged sword, it will protect all in the industry but regulations and licencing would mean illegals wouldnt be able to work there.
