I think my IQ dropped some points after watching the news this morning.

So, here I am sipping my liquid caffeine , while catching the news and a story popped up about several states taxing lap dances. Apparently, bar owners are arguing its an art form similar to ballet (wtf???) And should be exempt from such tax

Wait... stripping isn't an art form?!! ;)

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder! ;)

I think it depends on the combination of song, interpretation, and pole skills. Its all about the combined factors. Does the dancer, for example, truly channel the power of "Unskinny Bop"?

The 4th time trying to post this...

That made me laugh out loud.

Dont forget choreography and custom....and how sad is it that I still remember the lyrics to "Unskinny Bop"?

That is amusing to the common plebian like me.. but I'd be fucking insulted if I was a ballet dancer and someone said that Lap dancing was a "similar" art form to ballet as some sort of justification.. but on an off note, those boy ballet dancers' sure pack something down there.. or it could just be their tights :D

[sepiashadows]

I agree, some ballets dancers work hard for years upon years and that would be a slap in theface to hear something like that.

Okay now I have visuals about the boy dancers... and Im grinning ear to ear! :)
Perhaps they stuff their tights...????? :D
