As much as I despise workers’ unions, this one seems “innocent” enough:

Dancers at the Lusty Lady in San Francisco have made history again, this time turning the peep show into the first employee-owned and -operated strip club in the country.

The new proprietors, who number about 60 dancers and support staff, took over the club as a cooperative this month after the Lusty Lady’s former owners decided to close up shop.

“It is our bodies out there and we should be able to keep the profits,” said one new owner on Friday who called herself Sybil, 26, and who has danced at the club for seven years. “It is an exciting time to be here. This made me stick around.”

Of course, one has to wonder what happens if they decide to go on strike? Can you imagine the kind of bargaining skills they must have?
