Stripped: Los Angeles

First of all, I do respect the female stories: their struggles, social stigma, abuse. They are true professionals in their field and could be quite competitors. However, I am really not sure if they could turn anyone on. They give off a cheap, low class vibe. Right after watching this, I switched to "Striptease" (1996) with Demi Moore, where the dancers are nicer, with natural hair, zero tattoos and first class attitude.

Forget the haters. This is a great film about some powerful women using stripping as their form as expression. Read between the lines people - 8 stars from me!

The documentary aims to humanize women in the adult entertainment industry instead of just viewing them as objects to be sexualized. They all have a past sad past and have found liberation in taking ownership of their sexuality and making a living out of it.

It is well written and edited. Goes into many interesting topics and the girls reveal their views and experiences very nicely. I started to watch it with low expectations but it totally won my respect. Well done.
