A teenage stripper and various adult-entertainment businesses are suing Florida over the state’s newest law that raises the minimum age for workers.
On July 1, a new Florida law aimed to crack down on human trafficking took effect. Part of it called for those working at adult-entertainment businesses to be at least 21 years old. The businesses include sex shops, adult bookstores and strip clubs.
That led to a flurry of lawsuits including one from Serenity Bushey, 19, a dancer at a Florida club. Two strip clubs and a sex shop also filed a lawsuit over the law, according to WKMG.
Bushey argues in her lawsuit the law is in violation of her First Amendment rights to allow freedom of expression.
The dancer said she and eight other workers at her club lost their jobs because of the new bill.
And we should raise the age for military enlistment too, right? Because seeing active combat is much worse for that 18 year old than stripping
I dont agree with the law change in general, its fucked but its extra fucked that they couldnt provide an exemption for people already with those jobs.
