No, it's not my intention.

Honestly, I think it would be a waste of my time,
given the detailed, carefully reasoned rationalizations
in defense of strip clubs that folks have been putting

Well, but that's what I'm saying.  I don't think you

And before anybody accuses me of copping out, yes,
that's precisely what I'm doing.  The fact that it's
