I can't tell you how many fathers I have met in the course of my travels that actively go to strip clubs, with or without their spouse's awareness. For some it's just a distraction, but for others it's an addiction. Either way, husbands and fathers who go to strip clubs are putting into jeopardy their marriages and their families.
So it appears that the downturn in the US economy is also impacting strip clubs, at least here in South Florida where I live. This is from the Sun Sentinel:
Angelina Spencer is national executive director of the Association of
Club Executives, a group that represents adult entertainment clubs. She
says she fields calls every day from strip club owners around the
country feeling the pinch of a bad economy.
Spencer says entertainment is a luxury item and ``one of the first things people give up.''
Fathers and husbands spending less time at strip clubs is a good thing, even if the reasons for their absence have more to do with their wallet than their ideas of sexuality and respect for their wives.
On the flip side, a down economy also means that there are more women who are willing to try strip teasing as a form of income, which is why we should be helping groups like XXXChurch to reach out to men and women in the adult entertainment industry.
Not to turn this post into a discussion of this organization, but despite their lack of orthodox methodologies and teachings, they really are doing something really interesting to reach out to those afflicted by addictions to pornography and the "adult entertainment" lifestyle.
