Strip clubs seem less demeaning to me lol. Hooters is basically if you took sexual harassment in the workplace and made it your gimmick.

I've been into Hooters and nobody sexually harasses the workers. I'd even dare someone touch one of the workers innapropiately... I'd like to see the beating they'd get.

The point is that it's a restaurant based on sexually objectifying waitresses. Not that people act inappropriate. It's that the entire thing is inappropriate.

And a stripclub is also based on that. Should we close strip clubs? Are you the one who is going to tell strippers that they can no longer work because their job is wrong? Should we also tear down the porn industry? Even women enjoy places and activities that objectify men. Have you ever seen a bachelorette party?

There are places for certain activities. Hooters is one of those places. Everything going on inside this place is 100% consensual.

There's a place in my city in which women actually touch and get touched by the male waiters. Pretty hardcore stuff... Most people agree that whatever happens in there is fine as long as people can't see from the street.

Not sure what’s with all the hyperbolic rhetorical strawman questions. My entire point is that it would be more normal if it was a strip club instead of an almost-strip club, like I said originally. What I’m objecting to is that it’s setup like a normal restaurant. Seems kind of pointless, too. If you want to go somewhere and ogle naked women, great, just go to an actual nude club and don’t take your kids.

It’s like some of these people on here think that you get some wings and then rape the waitress for dessert.

Yeah, pretty much it's "let's train people to think of waitresses as sex objects and stare at their tits"
