Women's Issues: Feminists picket Israeli nightclub for lesbian and bisexual women

A nightclub in Tel Aviv catering for lesbian and bisexual women has been picketed by feminists who object to its strip tease shows.

Roni Hacohen, one of the organizers of the protest outside the Minerva Club, told Ynetnews.com that the owners have become part of the sex industry by employing exotic dancers."Women who do this for a living are not in a situation in which they can decide for themselves whether they should strip or go to law school," Hacohen said.

Ah - so another self-appointed expert decides how others feel and how they should live their lives. Probably went to law school - that would explain a lot of things.

The protesters tried to attract club-goers by handing out flowers outside but according to reports few paid much attention.
