Lap Dancer Job Listing Causes Furor in Scotland

by Max Hartshorne on September 5, 2006

Tidbits from a day on the web and at the cafe:

The Scotsman reports today about an uproar caused by a job center in Edinburgh that has advertised a job as a lapdancer as a city nightclub.

The job description states that the successful applicant will have to perform duties including ‘entertaining customers, pole dancing and private dances,” and assures that ‘previous experience not essential as full training will be provided.”

Oh, and the pay? It’s ‘competitive.’ The lap dancer job listing is a result of a lawsuit that was won by sex toy and lingerie chain owner Ann Summers. The court ruled that jobs in the sex industry were allowed to be advertised at the job center.
