The concept of a strip club where you can LEGALLY buy and smoke weed seems inevitable as marijuana legalization sweeps across our fine land. To me strip clubs and weed go together like peanut butter and jelly, coke and rum, ass and titties - nothing quite like being high surrounded by naked beauties. Vegas is moving towards this and Atlantic City may beat them to it if NJ politicians can get their fucking act together (fat chance but theres a lot of tax revenue to be made so maybe). I know it would be a huge hit in AC and the mayor seems to be on board with massive weed tourism down there but, this being jersey, he just got caught on camera slugging a councilman and was raided by the feds last week. Dammit.
Does this exist yet anywhere? in other states or countries? Vancouver or Amsterdam? Any thoughts?
Interesting. thats very close to what Im talking about, if they wind up selling from a kiosk or something inside the strip club and not replacing the strip club (that was unclear in the article). Colorado has a similar situation with a dispensary right next to a titty bar and same owners, so smart owners are angling already.
You are correct that the laws in CA, CO and NV all ban smoking outside the home which makes a true smoke lounge/strip club difficult, especially in vegas where most people are tourists from out of state, ie dont have homes to begin with. Maybe a private club set-up would be the answer? Smoking beforehand is of course an option as is vaping discreetly inside but Im envisioning more of a hookah lounge type set up inside a strip club. I think thatd be a hit and the first state to allow it will make a ton of money.
I have heard there are businesses in Denver people socialize and legally consume weed? idk if this is true. I am for weed being legal but I can't stand how most people just flaunt the laws where it is legal. I am from 1 of the weed friendly states and you will have people get on public transit with a joint still lit or smoking it where there's kids playing like 5 feet away and these aren't sketchy shit hole neighborhood parks but nice places. People will smoke weed while driving. Fucking retard shit.
Because a lot of people have jobs that drug test if an incident occurs or maybe they might be applying to jobs. I think it is extremely fucking selfish to smoke weed in an enclosed space and possibly get THC in a non-user's system because ur a retarded piece of shit that can't wait till u get back to ur shit hole apt lol!
If you can't smoke cigs on public transit why u saying they should smoke weed on there? So retarded!!!!! I wouldn't chance having that shit in my system for any job that matters and most jobs that matter do fucking test you.
I do think weed should be legal but keep that shit away from anyone that doesn't wanna use it or be around it. It is a basic show of respect like not smoking cigs around people who do not smoke.
I don't care if there is a contact high or not. I shouldn't have to breath in someone else's chemicals of choice. Not weed, not cigars, not cigarettes, and not vape. Go easy on your axe body spray as well.
in legal states companies really fucking care if THC shows up. holy shit lol! they go off federal laws fact check yo shit I am leaving this discussion!
Seems we got off topic here pretty quickly. Assume the club has a 75% effective ventilation system and a non-smoking area...would non-weed smokers even go? i was thinking a place like that would draw an almost exclusively weed smoking clientele.
Just bring a vape pen to the club and it in the LD area. As long as you are out of sight of a bouncer it doesn’t smell like weed and the smoke disappears quickly. I’ve got a CF that I’ll smoke with idurind a dance. She appreciates it and really loosened up in all the right ways.
I’d prefer to see any extras friendly club attached to a casino, that way I can win some money, go get my rocks off, eat at the buffet and blame the wet spot on my shorts as spilled mashed potatoes.
Why the fuck are you trying to argue with me? lol!
I know a ton of people working modest jobs making about $40,000-$100,000 where there is plenty of drug testing. It is called manufacturing and transportation. It is what you do if you need to move out and be fully independent at a young age and don't want to do college or life circumstances that make it hard or impossible. And don't wanna be stripper or hooker etc etc.
In the construction trades here in Florida we drug test all new hires, or our Insurance companies will drop us, test clean or you won't get a job offer, pays good too. Also any workplace incident require automatic drug test. most contracts require zero tolerance policy, no exceptions.
A big issue is second hand smoke and exposing employees to it for that long of a period. Plus the problems that would go with payment disputes , taking advantage of stoned strippers etc.
And smoking on public transit is a huge problem.....people have a right to not be exposed to it
This has been talked about before. Though the trend is marijuana legalization, marijuana is quickly turning into Tobacco 2.0. In California we have the second lowest tobacco smoking rate, after Utah and followed by Idaho. And most of this comes directly from over 25 years of indoor air protections. We have been quick to extend those protections so that they also cover marijuana.
So the ink is drying on laws which will prevent what you are talking about from ever happening.
Now it would not be impossible in some sort of a membership club, not retail. But that is following the model pioneered by Swingers Clubs. Such clubs have long been very hostile to tobacco. They are not going be any more open to marijuana.
Stanton A. Glantz, one of the most respected anti-tobacco scientists in the world, talking how to stop legalized maijuana from becoming another New Tobacco Industry.
The overall trend seems to be, treating tobacco and alcohol, and the illegal drugs, in very similar manners. So the Prohibition type of approach is starting to go. But the time and place restrictions, and the retail sales, advertising, and packaging restrictions are on the increase.
Locally, most communities have been very reluctant to host weed clubs, and this opposition is on the increase. San Jose, the nations 10th largest city, still has strong restrictions. I think only 10 clubs, 1 per Council District. So no, it is not absolutely illegal anymore, but it is already being seriously controlled, as are tobacco and alcohol.
We want people healthy. We are going to have Universal Health Care. We don't want to let anything get going which attacks public health.
And Glantz has shown the the health problems associated with Marijuana are virtually identical to Tobacco.
Stan Glantz has written some of the best books opposing the tobacco industry.
So what IceyLoco is saying is entirely correct. And then what TwentyFive is saying about construction and other public safety critical jobs is also true.
In Colorado they have legalization now. But they also have a severe teen age tobacco problem. People are angry about maijuana, and they are not going to let it turn into Tobacco 2.0.
Yes, and California's Medical Marijuana approach always was total bullshit.
I like weed. But laws protecting people from exposure to it are just common sense. I hate cigars and cigarettes and wouldn't want someone stinking a place up so why wouldn't I give others the same courtesy???
I think there would be too much of a liability issue with customers and dancers being in that vulnerable of a state. Too much potential for sexual assault and money disputes
That does not protect the indoor air. And those being effected the worst are the employees, being there all the time. This is why in CA it was first by labor laws that we protected indoor air space, no more smoking areas allowed.
The health problems caused by tobacco, and what will be exactly the same if marijuana continues to expand, these are public issues, public problems and public responsibilities. So no, it is no longer totally illegal anymore. No one is being serious deprived of what they want. But as such, new laws have already been passed to protect public places and retail places.

But sadly, it doesn’t yet exist in the US. I have no experience with sex workers overseas.
I read about this before...

The legal problem is that laws basically don't permit using marijuana outside one's home.
I don't think its much of an issue. There's no problem smoking in the parking lot before going in.

@DC you are retarded.

And I don't want to go around smelling like you losers.
And get the fuck off my lawn.

Strip clubs have always shown higher than average compliance with indoor anti-tobacco laws. They don't want to give LE another way to bust them.
