dublin | miscellaneous | press release Wednesday February 01, 2006 16:12 by Joanne Doherty 0863651263

There will be a protest outside Stringfellows lapdancing club this evening at 8.00pm.

Local residents, members of Ruhama and students will be among those at protest.

Please come along to help show how this club will contribute to increased sexual violence against women.

The Rape Crisis Network of Ireland has said that the opening of this club will inevitably lead to the continued degradation and objectification of women. Other problems that will result in the opening of this club is an increase in sexual violence against women and sex trafficking. Peter Stringfellow is trying to glamorise the club and give it a positive image, by inviting famous celebrities to its opening this evening. This is taking away from the facts that this club is going to have enormous negative implications on women.

Please come along and show your support!
