These poor girls are just trying to make some money in hard economic times. I would take several of them to the VIP, especially since they are showing their genitals and participating in inappropriate touching. I'm in!!!!!
I agree with clubber. In the dark with some make-up some of them probably clean up pretty well. No make up in a mug shot, is gonna make most women look bad.
Is anyone else bothered by newspapers that publish photos of people who have been arrested but not convicted of any crime? Sometimes the charges are dropped but news releases and accompanying photos seldom gets splashed across the media for a "charges dropped" story. For some of these women (and the occasional male customer who gets arrested) having their photo plastered all over the media can have serious consequences for career and family interests (just ask DSK-- no convictions, at least not yet, but plenty of media coverage).
In my opinion, the investment of police resources to prevent consenting adults for engaging in "inappropriate touching" in the relative privacy of a strip club is wrong-headed on so many levels. Unfortunately, the media compounds the tragedy by posting mug shots prior to any trial or conviction (and sites such as TUSCL contribute to the problem by posting links to the arrest photos). I would support the adoption of a policy on TUSCL to reject any mug shot posts. It would be one small gesture to making the concept of "innocent until proven guilty" more than just a slogan and lessening the impact on the women (and occasional male customers) who are arrested while making a living as a stripper or escort.
Electroman - It wouldn't be too much of a problem if we didn't have search engines like Google. Now a days you can put in people's names, email addresses and phone numbers and get a pretty good story of their personal histories, opinions and families.
I do agree that people who are innocent shouldn't have their name and photo splashed all over the internet. Newspapers these days seem to be more and more gossip sheets than actual give you news organizations. That said, their ever reducing circulation is showing it.
Regarding mug shots of people arrested on prostitution related charges--- here's an even more extreme and annoying example. In this case a web site allows anonymous posters to claim that someone is a prostitute and to post their photo and phone number. The web site makes money by charging the women to have their photo and contact information removed.
