OPINION: This is what sex industry workers think of Steve Dickson's strip club 'scandal'

If we accept that sex work is work, as even Pauline Hanson has been forced to do, we also accept that there are standards of treatment that workers can and should expect from clientele, management, and co-workers, whether or not these are formalised in policy.

While the codes of conduct in sex work businesses are different to those in more formal professional spaces, they don't mean that displays of racism or misogyny are acceptable, or that dancers and sex workers are, by virtue of their profession, available for verbal or physical intimidation.While I don't personally have experience working in strip clubs, the dialogue in the sex worker peer spaces I occupy suggests that Mr Dickson's words and actions aren't particularly uncommon.

Not a big deal at all. Kevin 11 did something similar and the leftist journos forgave him

I bet the strippers won't be complaining depending how much money is stuffed.

Alzajeera doing its best to tarnish/get rid of anyone speaking against religion of peace n illegally too .

Completely agree, should be treated with the same respect other workers are. Should also pay tax on every dollar earned, just like other workers do. But of course they do already don’t they Gala.

Since when were the opinions of sex workers worth anything? The intellectual aptitude required to be a hooker or stripper is minimal. This is a shameful excuse for journalism.

Looks like he was being polite and tipping her.

Good grief! Anyone would think the lady getting all the attention and the $20 bill being stuffed in her bra wasn't an active participant.

Yes, the ABC always try to get a whore’s response to the news.
