    One more thing

    If we want to make the offensive stereotyping even more parallel between the "stripper" and the "lacrosse guys" instead of just talking about how morally reprehensible it is to be a stripper, let's talk about how morally reprehensible it is to HIRE STRIPPERS. If there were no demand, they would be no supply, right? Or at least, they would be really cheap, but they were paid $400 dollars each.

    Who hires strippers? one could say "what kind of pathetic, chauvinistic, future wife-beaters, hire two women to take their clothes off at a party? What kind of a horrible human being do you have to be to want that and then to enjoy that?"

    The above is not my opinion, it's one that someone on Fox could perhaps advance to smear the lacrosse players' credibility.

    But the day someone on Fox starts slamming hiring strippers, we will all have to ice skate home, because hell will have just frozen over.
