based on what some of you are saying the old adage is true:
a rose called by any other name is still a rose.

they're attempting to motivate the adult men who enter to be gents. sure, I I observed a woman who became working around bare, i could provide her my coat. As for the questions that start up with the word "gents," i think of it is fro a similar reason. They comprehend that what they're doing is extremely a great way from being gentlemanly, so the could desire to apply the term as a cover-up. they are able to't ok be trustworthy and write. "woman hater..." Edit: The Mrs. hi, college instructor. won't be able to you examine the question. She didn;t say strippers have been demeaned and insulted. She reported that a number of the questions approximately this Y/A G&WS talk board are demeaning and insulting. No ask your self you may desire to coach 2d graders and ought to in basic terms get a job way out interior the rustic. they could desire to have been desperate for a instructor, by way of fact you're no longer very spectacular.

Stems from the time, Moose, when only men of money, then known as "gentlemen" could afford the price of the entry ticket.
The term "gentlemen" is applied in the same manner that politicians refer to each other as "honourable" members.

Because the term strip club is not very gentleman-like.

Ever heard of a euphemism?
The term is a euphemism or polite way of referring to a strip club.

You have just hit on my pet peeve. It makes me crazy to hear a reporter refer to the "gentleman' who shot people during a convenience store robbery or the "gentleman" wearing a suicide bomb.

It's called that so it doesn't have to be called a strip club.
