Sexy Sexy City Hall

Posted by on August 10 at 12:55 PM

Just popped into City Halland at the right time! The place was packed with foxy ladies. I mean packed. There was a public hearing about the mayor’s proposed 4-foot rule (which would make lap-dances geographically impossible), and the dancer community (along with their families) came out in full-force to protest the proposed changes.

Barnett was there frantically taking notes on the testimony, so I’ll leave it to her to file a full report later, but I wanted to report on one smart comment I heard from a council staffer standing in the back: “I’ve never seen so many women in city hall. It’s great. Now, if they’d stay around, and we could organize them on other issues like equitable medical care for women and company health plans that include birth control.”
