“Baring their Souls”

In Warsaw, OH, bikini-clad strippers staged a protest outside a church in answer to frequent rallies that church-goers have had protesting the strip club. The demonstration is a bit different than other protests. Instead of just holding their picket signs, they writhe against them.

Instead of marching on their picket line to a protest chant, they crawl on all fours to Def Lepperd’s “Pour Some Sugar on Me.”

Some of the church members even came to the strippers protest to show them Christian love, offering them food, suggesting alternative work, and mainly, correcting their picket signs’ horrible spelling.

The strippers want to be left alone to do their job like everyone else. Apparently, they assume that everyone else’s job requires platform heels and a large supply of body make-up to cover their stretch-marks.

Some church members acknowledge that, though they want these women to leave their jobs as strippers, they aren’t morally judging. The strippers are just too ugly.
