Stripping - Double Standards for Men and Women? 03 Dec 2008
Licensing changes for lap dancing clubs but are we guilty of having double standards?

The Government have announced that the licensing laws relating to lap-dancing clubs are to change. Sandrine Leveque, Head of Campaigns at Object joins Jenni to discuss the importance of this move.
Many people are concerned about the message these establishments send out - particularly the way women are viewed in our society. But what about our attitudes to men? If going to see the Chippendales is just a bit of harmless fun, is there a double standard at work? To discuss this issue, Jenni is joined by journalists William Leith and Julie Bindel.
