So I got this email...

You should really take down the "ethnicity" field, it's blatantly racist and might even be illegal.

What do you guys think? I'll post my response later.

Don't worry about-it - probably a Bernie Sanders supporter (or a crazy StripperWeb bitch or one of those supa-pussified millennials).

Maybe 20-years from now it may not be needed but dancer ethnicity is needed for now, IMO.

No. It is not racist. We all have different tastes in women and have a right to know what kind of women predominantly work in a club we are considering visiting. Some people just have to bitch about everything.

I'm a dancer and I didn't think anything ab it. Among ourselves, we talk ab race as a part of dancer variety. We will stay stuff like, "we really need a couple good black dancers on day shift," or "that guy likes white and Asian girls." I guess you could call it something else if you felt like you needed to, since it's not a lot different from stuff, like age, boob size, and thickness.

It's not racist. It's not illegal. It's just some brain damaged social justice warrior. I'm just waiting for someone to make the argument that we shouldn't be allowed to decide who we date or fuck or marry because white people are primarily going to select other white people and that's just racist.

No, of course it's not racist to state that a strip club has mostly white or mostly black dancers (or whatever)!

This reminds me of the time a few years ago when one of my best students, who was also a marathon runner, stayed after class and said "This may be racist, but it seems like almost all of the best long-distance runners in the world are from Kenya or Ethiopia". I told him "No, that's not racist at all. That's just a fact!" Young Americans are indoctrinated into thinking that any observation whatsoever about racial differences is automatically racist.

It is not racist. The next step is these pc types will be telling us it is racist to date or marry people with same skin color. Maybe I prefer white dancers, maybe I prefer black dancers. Since when did these pc types have a right to use the heavy hand of government to dictate who we think is hot? At least not yet...

No its not racist.("black" vs "mixed" strip clubs may be racists). But no. They are most likely just looking to start an argument with you, the founder. For anyone that prefers black women specifically, well you won't find many in the "mixed" clubs, so they need to know where to go for their chocolate fix.

Some folks have lost their mind regarding the topic of race and use of physical descriptors. Several of our local news stations here in Atlanta have dropped race from the physical description of criminal suspects...." Police are looking for two men, one 6', one 5'10."

Beyond the absurdity factor, I think that it makes the situation more racially sensitive.....are we now to presume that they don't have to describe the race and age because every crime is being committed by a young black male? The reporters, in their attempt to be politically correct are creating confusing, racially focused optics that do no one any favors.

The category of dancer ethnicity isn't any more racist than the a manager at a Target store requiring all their employees to wear a red shirt. If you think about it, signaling out the color red is discriminating against all the other colors a person could wear.

It is racist, using a strict, unencumbered definition simply by virtue of the fact that it asks that we categorize clubs by predominant race. But that's not the issue at hand.

The real question around which a lawsuit could be based is whether or not there's a display of prejudice based on race. So, if this site prioritized club listings based on ethnicity (or refused club listings entirely), then that would show racial prejudice and open the door to litigation.

In sum, it's fine.

Actually Estafador I'm not. What I am quick to do is call out others who demonize sources of information as if they are all knowing.

Simply including if there are WOC dancing at a club is not a biased or a racist statement unless it implies something negative.

For someone to read more into it however in my mind tells me more about the thought process of the person complaining than it does what they are complaining about.

As for other political views I'm pretty much an Independent-over the years no one party has ever held my loyalty simply for being a D or a R..........but I have noticed in the past decade the D's have become much more intolerant of anyone else's point of view than the R's. ( but again this is my own experiences and own observations)

Well, I do have some complaints about the racism on this site. Why are all of the clubs on here hairless ape clubs?

You guys have a million reviews for Follies and that is appropriate because there are some sexy female hairless apes that will do some pretty hardcore stuff there. However, there are some nice vulture clubs along US 19 north of Atlanta.

All of us gathered around a rotting deer carcass and watched the sexy female vultures do a little dance and get down. We vultures aren't racist at all. We had black vultures dancing next to turkey vultures. Hell, there were even a few female turkeys dancing. Squawk!

And what about the male hairless ape PLs that want to lick some sexy female vulture cloaca? How will they find the good vulture clubs and find the really dirty birds?

I'm dismayed and I'm filing a complaint with the council of ricks! Squawk! Squawk!

With that said, I do appreciate knowing what kind of dancers are at the hairless ape clubs. You hairless apes aren't as evolved and enlightened as the vultures and lions. Black and white clubs can be very different.

Moreover, there are times when I need a dark-skinned female hairless ape to lick my cloaca. Mostly I like the young blonde spinner apes but sometimes I need a girl ape that I look at and say baby got back. Squawk! Squawk!

You apes need to get your racial animus under control! Squawk!

This. Let me put it like this. You would probably find at least one kim Kardashian/Alexis Texas type at plenty of black clubs. But how many white clubs you think would hire Nicki Minaj or Amber rose?

I think RandumMurmur was funnier and more creative. The kind of thing you would expect from some illiterate, kooky, cardiologist educated in Barbados.

No having an "ethnicity" field is not the least bit racist. Now if you regularly sling racial epithets, call others "porch monkeys," refer to Asians as "chinks," deride LBGTs as having a genetic defect, start threads about sitting next to a smelly Muslim woman, then you are in fact a first-class, unadulterated, dyed-in-the-wool, big-OT.

You would think any idiot would know the difference.

Well chessmaster, we ricks promote an open-minded and tolerant attitude. As long as you don't do anything obnoxious we will welcome you. This attitude extends to rick-sanctioned vulture clubs. Aah...yup

However, I recommend you buy a nice suit so you can get attention. Let me know if you want to visit a vulture club. We can meet up. I'll buy you a beer. Maybe encourage a sexy lady turtle to show up. Aah...yup

Have you ever fucked an Eastern box turtle? I'm a bit big for a box turtle but since you are a hairless ape you might be just about right. Aah...yup

Most guys do decide to go to a club, in part at least, based on the ethnicity.

Strip clubs are where you learn to engage with girls that are off your type, and of different races. So it is very constructive.

It is definitely not racist.

Taken further, I wish all reviewers, when describing their ATF or CF or their lapper du jour would identify the object of their affection more precisely -- race, size, hair, tats, piercings, etc. In other words, create a picture -- then we can choose for ourselves if our tastes align with yours and follow your lead or run for the hills.

I finally found what u were talking about. I never noticed this field before. You don't see it when u click on "read reviews".

I don't think it's racist but could be fairly inaccurate. For example of some of the clubs I visit I don't think it's labeled right. Cheetah in Pompano says "Mixed" but is heavily Latina woman. Porthole Pub in Pompano says "Mixed" but is heavily Black.

The reviews are of more value. It might not be a necessary or misleading field.

Hi, Bernie bro here. I'm black, a millenial, support gender indentity rights, single payer health care, welfare, ending the war on drugs, BLM, etc...all the things you conservatives seem to despise...making me the logical choice according to comments on here for being a SJW who would support the comment founder recieved

However, even I can't see a damn way this is racist. This is isn't a job application, it's not a government website, it's a voluntary website dependent on information thats volunteered. Don't want to give the info?
Then don't and move along. And since this is an industry very rooted in appearances and ethnicity/race is a huge part of one's appearance, it's a quite relevant field.
Additionally, I don't think that consumer discrimination against a business is a thing legally speaking (otherwise known as choosing not to patronize an establishment for whatever reason you so damn choose), so why would it matter?

Sounds like some kind of political correctness crap. Reminds me of a stupid book I read a long time ago as a teenager. The book story had an idea to end all racism by outlawing all marriages within the same race and made the law global. I can't remember if there was a one world government or not in the book. Anyway my brain made me realize how opposed I was to the idea by making me have an extremely vivid dream. I was in charge of a global organization opposed to the global law. There were millions of people working under cover willing to do whatever it took in support. We were going to nuke the world if governments didn't rescind the law starting with major cities across the world. Tehran was the first city nuked. I swear I was too close because I heard the loudest explosion and it woke me up like a bomb went off. No one else in our house heard anything. Apparently it was all a dream. I'm strongly opposed to ending all of our differences. Besides I like certain characteristics and certain looks in the opposite sex. If you threaten to end everything that makes us unique and destroy what I and many others like, those are fighting words. In that respect, I'm glad we have multiple races. Identifying different types of strip clubs is a useful feature.
