Topless Dancers
 

I am in favor for topless dancing in Portsmouth and Chesapeake,Va. I do truly feel that it is not important for the ABC Board to regulate whether or not someone wears a bathing suit top to a convenience store,grocery store,or night club. There does however need to be regulations in place in the adult clubs. The adult clubs are exactly that ADULT, but there does need to be rules and regulations due to the fact that not all customers or entertainers have the same ideas on what are sexual acts or what are simulated sex acts. There should be an amount of space between the entertainer and patron. The genital areas,pubic hair,or anus need to be covered not only for the safety of the entertainer but for the health of all in these clubs. The breast covering is a bit outdated though. We are all adults that perform in the clubs and adults that come to the clubs to be entertained. I dont think the pasties are needed at beer only establishments. ABC permit holders should not be penalized for others disreguard of the rules that are in place.
