Did you actually try to ask them at least not to talk about it in front of you ? Its hard to change someone from minute to minute. I cant say its the same, but its similar to my case. I extremely hate smoking (I totally cant stand it) and one of my friends was a heavy smoker. I asked him (politely) not to smoke in front of me, that I dont like that. He accepted it and since we hang out together a lot, after approximately a month, he found out that whole smoking was plainly stupid and ended with it. Just try to tell them your opinion about that whole thing, giving a try wont kill you.

Don't be jealous. Being nice is a very rare thing nowaday.

Maybe your friends just have a taste for art and appreciate pole dancing in particular. Just let it go, it's not like the strippers are doing it against their will: easy money, loads of attention from men and a casual workplace dress code :)

Don't bring religion into it, but integrity itself. If they are as shallow and mindless enough to blindly enjoy paying a girl for her to dance on your lap, then go ahead, but don't allow them to push that into you.
Of course, the girl has the right to make her money the way she wants it, and there will be always a demographic for it (that is shallow, mindless and extremely simple minded attitude towards the different sex), but simply stating that that is not the way you think about women should be enough, if it isn't, then why are you hanging with them in the first place?

Personally I've never been to a strip club but that doesn't mean that everyone frequenting them is a sub-human incapable of appreciating all facets of a woman. Anyone that thinks differently is just deluding themselves. When I'm having sex with my wife I sure as hell have no interest in conversation. Conversely, when we're having a conversation I'm not just thinking about how I want to bang her lights out. Truly appreciating women (and men) is accepting and enjoying the fact that all these different facets of a person can exist in different amounts at different times. People going to a strip club are probably interested in the sexual facet specifically and not much else at that time but that doesn't mean they never appreciate the other facets of women.
tl;dr Humans are complicated

You're right, and my comment did sound like i'm treating absolutely everyone the same way, which is erroneous.
Unfortunately, personal experiences with close "friends" have shown me the relation i made above is not too far from the truth. (Of course, not an absolute truth, which is where my mistake lies)

Don't go, lead by example. Clearly state why you don't go. your friends seeing that you have more integrity than them will spark a chain reaction, eventually, all men will follow by your example. Then all strip clubs will close because there is no business, many many women will be out of jobs, homeless, and drop out of college. but we can all rest easy knowing that men are no longer objectifying women.
A much better world in my book for sure.

You wasted my time with this stupid thread...you must be gay to rage about it so hard...If you don't want to go then don't go, no reason to cry on SG over it. I hate to be mean like that, but you have made some dumb threads and this is no different. Have a nice day

If I was a stripper I would be able to make more giveaways in all reality.

I think if I worked out a bit I could but I still would be uncomfortable, another reason I give them credit actually.
Comment has been collapsed.
speaking of comfortable.. I dont know if the OP realizes this .. but you dont have to pay them for a lapdance. I know people that go down and pay them to talk to them for hours. Not sexual at all. So if that makes him or others feel better. They can be great listeners apparently!

Strippers make bank. Just because you have gender identification issues and unresolved anger from that doesnt mean everyone is some big asshole w.e. Stop acting like some 12 year old white knight, women can and do handle their own shit, more so then you could.

I do agree, stripclubs are not places that appeal to me either. The idea of paying for attention is just pathetic in my opinion. I have the same thoughts regarding prostitution. How can you enjoy yourself if this chick is taking your money in exchange? It just doesn't sit right with me.

I've been dragged along to strip clubs only a few times. The women are hot enough but the biggest turn off is the glazed, disinterested looks on their faces. The noise, expensive drinks, and almost palpable funk of depressed people (staff and patrons) just makes me not wanna be there.

You're the one with the disrespectful attitude. I don't frequent strip clubs, but most of the strippers I've known personally (both male and female) have been awesome, confident, fairly well-adjusted people. I respect every one of them. Shame you're too narrow-minded to do the same.
Your ideals should guide how you live your life and your life only. Expecting others to live by your standards and your morals is pure arrogance. Enjoy living a life of disappointment.

If no one goes to Strips all the women that work there would be poor and probably homeless.. do you want that to happen?

Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure he's for real. If he were trolling, he would've replied to some questions that he has no answer to otherwise.
Comment has been collapsed.
See, it's that same lack of replies that made me ultimately decide this is a troll. Not to mention, how could the OP even possibly have thought Xarabas was being serious?

holy fuck some of you are properly pathetic. sort of amazing to see the dichotomy of fucking deluded white knights and machismo-driven idiots, especially the guys who are questioning gender in this thread as if that will change if the fairly evident ignorance is more acceptable or not. The most amazing part is the legitimate amount of vitriol this actually attracted. Seriously, the moment you throw christianity on it you get guys trying to base that as a reason to put a person down? check that privilege broskis
why do you have to be so mad
why dont you go play some video games instead of sitting here looking to leech free things
whatever happened to being friends
i hope you have a wonderful day
stay free guys
B)
also GI joe looks like shit, it's pretty obvious the studios think so because of the delay.
