Target: Bob Price, Leader of Oxford City Council
Region: United Kingdom
Background (Preamble):
Oxford City Council has had a good history of tackling violence against women and supporting services for women. It has also taken a strong stance at adult sex shops and so called 'gentlemen's clubs'.
The opening of a lapdancing club in the City runs contrary to the Council's strong stance against the 'adult entertainment' industry.

Petition:
We, the undersigned, call on Oxford City Council to do all in its power to prevent the establishment of so-called lapdancing and gentlemen clubs in Oxford.
Such clubs demean women and contribute to a view of women as 'sex objects' using their bodies to purely for men's sexual pleasure in the pursuit of creating profits for the club owners.
