old enough to get shot in Iraq but not old enough to take her top off.
I'm not familiar with Florida strip clubs, but if they're basically a bar (as strip clubs are where I live), I am surprised that staff were ever allowed to be below the drinking age.
In my state it's legal to work in a bar under 21, but none of them higher under 21 because of the risk
In Florida the laws vary by county, which makes things kind of confusing because one city may allow one thing and a few miles away the rules are different.
Tampa for example might allow certain acts to take place but not serve alcohol at the same time. There's clubs with say, an upstairs/downstairs that only serve alcohol on one floor so the other floor can show some skin. It's all kind of stupid.
Then you go across the bridge and there's full nudity, but the food is served outside from a truck.
Every few years the rules change or DeSantis takes something away. I wish we had freedom in this "land of the free".
In my state, bartenders (and waiters) can be 18. You can serve and not drink. I thought that was similar in other states
Edit: same for beer, wine, liquor stores
TSNT! Teenage stripper ninja turtles! Turtles with a hard-on, turtle power!
Turtles are mostly hard
I had several under 21 friends pay for college by stripping back in the 90s. If you are cool with it, it seems like a good way to make some decent money and it is generally not something you do as a lifetime career. Let the 19-year-old take her clothes off if she wants.
Pretty sure this happened in the show Community.
I was told that we can dance if we want to!
I left all my friends behind!
I can't dance!🥲
I've got ants in my pants!
How about the way you walk?
We're not talking about Suzy Q right now.
Then you’re no friend of mine!
I'll just dance in places you will never find.
Everything is out of control!
As i read "teenage" I thought, it s okay that underage people dont work in a stripclup, but as i saw that she is 19 hadnt problem anymore.
Right. They’re adult enough to do it online. It’s arguably better for an 18 or 19 year old to dance in a club than have an OnlyFans. At least after working in a club they can choose to move on to other career options without complete documentation of their previous line of work.
Yeah. They could have used nineteen instead of teenage but that wouldn't drive the emotion enough.
The Independent is a tabloid and not enough people outside the UK know that or view it that way. I think they see the name and think that has intellectual weight behind it.
Yeah it just wouldn'twerk
Conservatives keep lowering the minimum age of workers so we end up with children working in slaughter houses and such but when it's in the adult industry they raise the age limit. Makes no fucking sense. They don't like seeing empowered females I guess.
Also, it's lame how the headline fails to include the countless other people and entities that are also suing. I hope they win.
There's often an alternative way of looking at things that can make seemingly inconsistent positions become consistent. In this case, it's control. They want to control children and they want to control women's bodies. How this happens morphs in each situation, but the underlying goal is there.
Lol the UK carrying this story?
I'm not surprised American media wouldn't run this story.
