Joe Johnson of < a href="http://www.gentlemensweb.com" TARGET="_blank">Gentlemensweb.com writes: "The new zoning law in New York City has another twist to it I believe. Although many will feel that these establishments do more harm than good, I have met some very good people during my 8 years in the business. I've met women that have put themselves through school, taken care of their families and supported their children. Hard working ladies that otherwise might not have been able to reach their goals without this legal means of employment. In many eyes, it may not seem to be a normal means of employment, but again it is a legal one!
"Now that it is evident at some point these women will have to seek employment elsewhere. To go out and find employment that will enable them to continue to support themselves. A lot of them are now turning to the Internet. More and more adult Entertainers are starting up and joining websites like the Gentlemen's Web. (< a href="http://www.gentlemensweb.com" TARGET="_blank">http://www.gentlemensweb.com). This website like many others, offers Adult Entertainment for those that seek this kind of material. All precautions have been taken to insure that only adults may view its content specified by law. It's a means in which some of the women in the New York area can continue to entertain and support their goals in life. And a way for those seeking this kind of entertainment in the New York area can view it.
"I started this website with a few friends for this reason. To continue to make available adult entertainment for those who want to view it. (Freedom of speech) What's pertinent here is that in a billion-dollar business that's in high demand people must want to see it. Even in New York! And we believe we have the right to view adult content and be entertainers. (Freedom of speech)
"We hope you find this worthy to print or air, informing the public how this new zoning law is effecting some hardworking entertainers, and to inform the public where the New York area Adult Entertainers will be appearing. Gentlemen`s Web, a website where male & female audiences will be able to find adult entertainment in the New York area in the very near future. Because they will no longer be able to go to the adult clubs!"
