Speaker Encouraged 8th Grade Girls to Become Strippers
So let me get this straight, it's not a good idea to encourage 13 and 14 year old girls to become strippers?

Apparently not. The principle at Jane Winthrop Stanford Middle School in Palo Alto, CA will not invite back Management Consultant William Fried, who said to students that stripping and exotic dancing can pay $250,000 or more per year, depending on their bust size.

Fried gave a listing of a 140 possible careers, exotic dancing being one of them. Yeah, I don't know what better field a 13 or 14 year-old girl could go into other than stripping. And what isn't great about having dirty men stuffing dollars into your g-string? How is it bad for a woman's self-esteem to have men pay her to take her clothes off? I don't think stripping is really a field anybody "wants" to get into, you just kinda end up there. Well, first it's cheerleading, then stripping, then you're eventually a prostitute. I believe that's the "whore-spectrum", but I'm not entirely sure on that one.
