Hypocrisy.
I've noticed a contradiction in American culture. It's okay to go to a strip club, or watch porn- in fact, it's considered normal, especially for young men. If they show no interest in doing either of these things, in fact- then there might be something wrong with them.
However, it's not okay to be a stripper or do pornography. That's socially unacceptable. Should a young woman want or choose to do these things- there's probably something wrong with them.
What gets to me the most is that these ideas of what's proper and correct for a woman are often enforced by the same people who see no problem with going to a strip club once in a while.
Don't get me wrong- I'm not saying that I think stripping or pornography is wrong, or anti-feminist- look at my websites! I'm saying that it's completely and utterly hypocritical to think it's wrong for a girl to be stripping, and then go to strip clubs yourself.
It's exactly the same with people who rant and rave about "illegals" taking over our country, and then go enjoy a nice, big, fresh bowl of strawberries picked by- you guessed it- illegal immigrants.
You can't have it both ways. Either it's okay, or it's not. If you're not okay with your sister doing pornography or stripping- don't be part of the market for those things.
