Tits, pints and would be pimps.


Urgh,
From today's indo.

"The downturn in the pub trade, the smoking ban, the crackdown on drink-driving and a slowing economy are the reasons cited by a rural pub owner who said he has been forced to employ a scantily clad barmaid to help him to keep his struggling business afloat.

Every Thursday since the start of September, the topless barmaid is attracting customers from across the region to Browne's Bar, located on the Shannon river along the Limerick/Clare border.

"Basically, the pub business is down all over the country. Everyone is suffering and this is the case here in a big way.

"The smoking ban, the garda crackdown, high prices and less money in people's pockets have led to this," said John Joe Fitzpatrick who runs the bar in Montpelier, Co Limerick.

He has rejected criticism from local detractors that he is using "vulgar and incorrigible tactics" to draw customers.

"There are plenty of women down here on Thursdays though, and all have said they admired Jasmin for her work.

"Even some of the older women encourage and bring their husbands here as they are more full of beans and romantic towards their wives when they return home.

"I see it as a therapy for the older men.

"As the song goes, there's life in the old man yet," chuckled Mr Fitzpatrick."

Life maybe, but not an ounce of dignity in the stupid old bollocks. What fucking 'therapy' do old men need anyway? How is ogling a pair of breasts therapy?
This makes me sick to my stomach. He bleats on about prices and tax and gardai, but sees nothing wrong with making money exploiting and objectifying a woman. Shame on him and shame on the stupid women who go in there and 'admire' Jasmine's work. Maybe when he tries to convince Jasmine to start doling out hand jobs as extra therapy for rainy Wednesdays they'll wake the fuck up.
Exploitation, I"m really against it.
