I dont understand. I thought that was the selling point of hooters. Thats like being offended by a strip club requiring you to strip while working?
Right? I thought we weren't shaming sex workers.
I won't shame the women who work there, but I will shame Hooters as a whole. Waitressing in general is a profession that puts up with a lot of BS and sexual harassment. Grin and take it. Add intentionally skimpy clothes and you're only inviting more.
Actual stripping, at least at a halfway decently run club, is less problematic. A customer who gets too grabby will be kicked out. Strippers are not required to put up with them.
You just said a bunch of things that you need prove. How is Hooters worse than a stripclub? I've been to Hooters and stripclubs and it's the polar opposite.
In Hooters you have a bunch of people just eating their wings. Most people don't even care about the waitresses, they are pretty but that's it, nobody touches or says anything to them. If someone does, I'd expect them to get in trouble.
Inna stripclub people are constantly breaking the rules and stripers tolerate that because the guy is probably teasing them with money. I've seen it with my own eyes, a guy with a 20 dollar bill showing it to a woman as an excuse to get handsy, and she let him. How is that remotely close to Hooters?
Only when consenting adult women wear tiny clothes to deliver food. I’d like to know which Hooters had sex workers.
We're not shaming sex workers but we're shaming Hooters workers? Where's the logic in that? Let them work.
If we're going to shame anything, shame the food. And the sleazy patrons holding it up.
Never been to one as like the post says we don't have them in the UK, but it kind of strikes me as the worst of both worlds. It's themed around ogling the staff so the food isn't the focus. But the staff don't actually get naked or do anything erotic.
Idk i live in mainland europe so i dont really see american stuff
