Lap dancer retraining for second career as lawyer

by Walter Olson on February 6, 2009

Victoria Andrews of Southampton, U.K., says her exotic-dance colleagues were “not particularly shocked” at her career change decision. “Law was always something I was interested in. It also provides a more secure income than running a lap dancing club.”

Well I suppose her first career was a learning experience for figuring out how to screw people.

I can’t wait to see her closing “argument”. :)

What’s so strange about this? I used to hang out at a topless bar in Florida, where most of the dancers were law students. A girl could work a weekend and make $1200 to $1800 and have the entire week to go to classes and study.

This is an absolute disgrace: Degrading the sterling reputation of topless lap dancers by becoming a despicable lawyer.

Maybe this is just Walter’s way of saying that he’s gonna do the reverse?

Jim Collins: I’m also in FL and can verify your assertion.

It’s a job. It’s a job that requires flashing boobs and backsides. It does not necessarily or even usually equate with prostitution, however racy it may seem. The better clubs don’t have to hire the train wrecks of society and tend to maintain good behavior if only to avoid losing their licenses.

Of course, there are many exceptions. Low-life has been around for a while and shows no signs of going away.

One less lawyer in lap dancing. One more lap dancer in law.

I’m reminded of the old remark that this probably improves the morality and intelligence of both professions.
