SEATTLE, Aug. 11 (UPI) -- Scores of strippers attended a Seattle government committee meeting to protest a proposed ban on lap dances.
Suzanne Snow told the Seattle Times the tips she receives from lap dances allow her to work part time so she can spend more time with her son.
"How can we make money when someone can pay a $10 cover charge to see us for free?" she said.
Mayor Greg Nickels' plan would require dancers to stay at least 4 feet away from customers. Under current rules, dancers are not allowed to engage in simulated or actual sex and can only strip all the way when they are on stage.
Councilman Richard MacIver, who chaired the Finance and Budget Committee meeting, called the dancers "articulate" and said he has "mixed emotions" about the proposed rule change.
