There was an article in the NY Times today on a vegan stripclub.
Here again we see feminists and vegetarians, perhaps both misguided, butting heads.
I wrote a piece on feminist vegetarianism for The Sin City Siren a while back, illustrating my thoughts on the matter.
But I recognize that it’s deeper than freeing animals and freeing women – and I’m going to have to say that I am for a vegan stripclub. Women don’t have to work in them, and may in fact feel better about themselves after having done so; more people hear the veg message, and that’s always a good thing.
We’re in this in between zone as a society – between complete women’s liberation and coming around the bend about animal liberation. I can see a vegan stripclub existing in this world. Maybe it wouldn’t have made since 100 years ago or it won’t make sense 100 years from now, but I see how it makes sense now.
