Women's right's groups in Britain have urged the Government to become more strict on lap dancing licensing laws.
Women's right's groups are now seeking to classify lap dancing sessions as "sex encounter establishments/clubs" by introducing tougher licensing laws. This plea to the government was made in an attempt to discourage attitudes seeing women as “sex objects.
The groups want ministers to classify the clubs as "sex encounter establishments" rather than them just needing an alcohol license to operate.

"Current licensing has acted as a floodgate to the industry whilst making it difficult for local authorities and local people to have a say in this process.
