arran thanks for that, are you on the mailing list for the details on the day?

How do I get on the mailing list for the meeting tomorrow?

Woulddolly I've sent a pm. :)

What's 'sex encounter venues' about?

Cathy just to clarify, are you asking what the definition is, what the feminist argument against them is or - ?
' 'Lap-dancing' or 'gentlemen's' clubs are known as Sex Encounter Venues under the Policing and Crime Act 2009, but may more accurately be referred to as Sexual Exploitation Venues. They are establishments were men gain sexual satisfaction and/or feelings of superiority by viewing exploited women displayed like slaves for sale - prostitution may also take place. SEVs profit from the sexual objectification of women.'

Typo - 'establishments where' not were, tut.

Sorry, I was asking for the definition. Never heard them referred to that way before.
