Straight people have no business bar-tending in a gay bar. Just my opinion.

Posted: 5/16/13 at 8:08pmLOL!! How is that a violation of civil rights? If gay strippers or gay sex make you uncomfortable, the don't work at a gay club...

"Matthew Krupnick, the lawyer who filed the lawsuit against West Hollywood Boys Town, Inc. (WHBT), owner of Micky’s, provided WEHOville photographic evidence of strippers performing in the nude, strippers openly displaying their penises and masturbating in front of patrons, a stripper walking around with semen on his face and chest, a patron using his finger to penetrate a stripper’s butt, a ring toss game involving a man’s penis and employees pouring shots of liquor down a stripper’s back while a patron licked it from the stripper’s butt."

Posted: 5/16/13 at 10:17pmAnd I thought you weren't allowed to do any of that stuff in bars anymore. Where exactly is this place?

While all that stuff is pretty standard in the more raunchy Montreal clubs, I also thought it was against the law in much (most?) of the US. (Maybe I just assumed that, due to all of the American tourists who seemed to go to Montreal just for the strippers.)
To complain that you were somehow forced to work in a bar that showed pornography on their TVs (I don't even know how the fact that one of the complaints was that the guy's roomate was in one of the porn videos plays *any* part) is hard to take seriously.

I am going to presume your are not using the word "raunchy" as a perjorative. And Campus is just good clean fun, especially on ladies night, which is not to be missed.

Heavens to Betsy, No! I suppose I should have said "more explicit" but raunch isn't really a negative to my mind. What would be the point of going to a strip show if you can see it all on basic cable at home?
The first week I moved to Montreal, for my roommate's birthday a bunch of us went to either Campus or Stock and it turned out to be a ladies' night. Which was amusing simply because regularly the customers don't actually get on stage with the dancers--and my roommate wanted a "backroom dance" but was refused due to the fact only women could on that night--umm ok. (I guess it's fair, whenever my sister would visit she'd complain how many of the gay strip clubs wouldn't allow women in.)

I might...might understand ONE stupid idiot accepting a job and not realizing what might happen in a gay bar that most likely advertises to attract customers that they have strippers on the bar but 9 idiots - unlikely. Don't people scout out a location they plan to work in? Feels like a scam.

"How many vegetarians work in a steak house?"
The ones who are looking to start a lawsuit against meat-eaters do.

Posted: 5/17/13 at 9:47amWith the exception of the masturbation, ring toss game and semen on the face this sounds like Friday night at one of my favorite bars in Hell's Kitchen.

^ there once was a tender from Mickey's
who loved to play ring toss with dickies
he'd toss 'em all night
then sue for the fright
and pay the gay lawyer with quickies

Posted: 5/17/13 at 4:29pmBut most importantly, is the semen made on premises or is it frozen? Don't need another Kitchen Nightmare.

Posted: 5/17/13 at 4:55pmIwill say, I don't agree with the sentiment that straight people shouldn't work in a gay bar (though that doesn't even seem to have much to do with this lawsuit--considering the different sexual orentation of the plaintiffs.) I've known great straight bar staff members and sh*tty gay ones, and vice versa.
