Yahoo Apologizes for ''Hack Day'' Lap Dancers

[Gin Fushicho]

Eh... Not like I'll get a hug later. It's just lap dance of lies.

@jockee

as safcmanfr has said dont be hypoCritical .

in spite of you having a wife and a daughter , you need to read the book "everything you needed to know about women but were told not to ask" . ill tell you what women are more depressed by all the prejudice they are thrown at . again , don't confuse a lap dancer with a hoe . now that's geeky .

women need to be needed and appreciated . i hope you know that too that the dancer needs from you would be appreciation and not disgust . i would personally thank any woman for a good service in the sense when they try something for you , and you let'em know that you liked it .

women are really flexible and they like being that way , i'm scared you would play "hitler" with all your family women . caring for your daughter is good and natural but if you cage her then that's it . this is why the flurry of young age invites hypocritical judgement from elders .

All you guys talking about women as if they were pets/objects/aliens! LOL - have you ever tried talking to anyone of them? (and no, your mom doesn't count). "women need to be needed and appreciated" - whooa you think? I didn't know that!
Do you really think I'm critizising the *women* here? I'm talking about MEN's behavior of course. Your's and the men at Yahoo who thought this was a good idea. The problem is of course not what the women do, but the men's view on women. This whole forum makes my point quite well I think

And I need absolutely no book to get information on women, thank you very much! I'm communicating very well with my wife, who is quite a strict feminist. I think most of you guys would learn A LOT from discussing these things with her. But she's not really active on these geek forums...

i am from quebec , france (ok, that was a joke) , and you obviously havent been here , try visiting california in your country and tell this crap to vegas dancers there , youll get yourself mocked .

looks like in the process of communicating with your wife , you have forgotten about your own male brain in trying to agree with her too much , then .

wait for some years , your daughter will teach you these things when she gets her biker boyfriend . play hitler with them together with your wife .

and there are lots of open minded and educated girls here in quebec , who dont have a problem with these things . privacy is a different issue . if you think u hve an advantage by just being married , be sad for urself . we arent talking about commitment here as a proof of knowledge . i personally will go the distance of ridiculing this attitude of yours , stupid married people are full here .

being a male u arent enjoying what it means to me a guy , ur losing the gift which u were born with . and i never said to treat women as objects in the process !

you have a problem on men's view of women ??? oh sorry have fun we have gotten too much personal already but again this was such a topic .

remember all the beers , the football games , the cheerleaders , fast hardware , money , power , position , ego and pride . i challenge you to call urself a man if u have no respect for these things . think victory , not compromise even with women , but just care a little bit not become senti over everything ! chillax dude !
grab a bud light and watch your fav game today and dont discuss feminist stuff tonight with your wife . have fun !

I can;t help but think it'dbe funny as hell to give one guy a lap dance from a completely smokin' al, and for the next guy up, a oiled up hulk in a thong came out. Now that would make the guy uncomfortable.
Everyone in the crowd would laugh their asses off, making the whole event a lot les stressful. Hell, if the guy had any sense of humor, he would too (and then ask for a gal).

Dancing is a job, and for some, it's great money.
I think my job may be more degrading then dancing... and it pays a whole lot less...

Wish I was there.

or wait a minute : you are pretending to be a man here jockee , which u really arent by your way of writing stuff . you refer to "men" as "they" all the way .

as a great example let me tell u a story , i have a childhood friend(girl) from school who was a bit ugly , and in afterwards ridiculed all her college girls for acting as an object (in the way you mean )to their boyfriends and stuff .

my friends mother is a wealthy and powerful woman and owner of a full hospital and has many men and women under her command . so once me and my friend were having this discussion over the latest crying girls in her college when her mother told me one thing straight : she frets and bitches because as she had confided to her mom , she doesnt get any . and guess what : my friend also is a "feminist" . this is just one example of ugly people .

there are women like her mom whom i admire , and i am not guilty because they have the quality and deserve it , shes more confident than the men under her . and she chairs the hospital facility well .

different people need to be treated differently , dude , and i doubt you are one because u make sounds like women , in the light re reading your posts . i bet that event would have been a tremendous success for yahoo had people like me would've been there . and the girls would have been happier with customers or audience like me .

i still cannot fathom how cool an event as planned for by yahoo management was ruined by a bunch of true geeks (yeah them , not me , if you're sane to see the obvious) , and i still stand by yahoo's planning of the event . remember , it wasnt a strip show as you are making it sound , just 10 mins maybe of cool fun .

yeah and i know numerous examples in which geeks start to act hostile because they really dont know how to handle the situation , i am repeating this important point (kudos to one poster who wrote ... unless women are written in assembly). if you have the fever of feminism being a male , best of luck .its late here now and i gotta have kfc , beers talk sports and cars and sex with my sane male friends like a wolf pack . these things will always be close to a true man's heart , as men like toys .period.i have the courage to say this and stand by myself .i have had a similar debate with a 44 year old woman on facebook and i defeated her and made her run out of situations to consider . of course i did not agree with her , but i did not want to make her happy , why should i have ?

Then only problem I see is there was no Hack Guys for the ladies to make everything fair and balanced. I say No Flash No Foul.

I personally get to sick of seeing Asian women at every booth at every tech show in the US. I want to see some American girls in the Taiwan and Japanese tech shows to balance that out, but now I am being picky.
