What's the TX law on heel height for female erotic dancers?

Question

I used to date someone in that field and they told me that if they weren't wearing heels of like 7 in. then what they did could be called prostitution.

I was wondering if this law was real or not, or at least what the specifics were.

Answer 1

Heel height is regulated by county law in Texas.

Answer 2

Obviously, this is a male asking this question... Have you ever tried to wear 7" heels? It's virtually impossible for ANY woman to wear much more than a 5" heel without literally standing on their toes! (Platforms may make it easier, but then the heel is not as elevated from the toe--a 7" platform heel may also include a 2" platform for the rest of the foot..)

A woman would have a VERY hard time walking, much less dancing, in 7" heels, w/out breaking her ankle or her neck! :)

Answer 3

It is not statewide. The county commissioners of each county set that height.
The size of the heel is by formula, it is: The circumference of the largest cheek, if assymetrical, divided by the age of the dancer (driver's license proof required) x's Pi / divided by the number of their children multiplied by their inseam/area in inches of their left breast. The county judge, if male, and his commissioners are charged with enforcing this law.

Answer 4

I've only heard that dancers must wear shoes. That's probably because the health dept doesn't want bare feet where food and drink is served.
Prostitution is pretty well defined as performing a sex act for pay.

Answer 5

Cities regulate sexually oriented businesses and not the state.

Answer 6

i dont think so. I used to dance and never heard of such thing

Answer 7

you're funny!
