OHMYGOD YOU’RE KIDDING ME THE BARISTAS AT JAVA JUGS FLASHED THEIR CUSTOMERS? THERE ARE BOOBS AT JAVA JUGS?
No, really. This must be a joke. (It isn’t, look here.)
The real joke is they were arrested for it. They were arrested for trading tits for tips, but like, that was always what was happening.
The place is called Java Jugs. The jugs in no way refer to larger than normal coffee containers. So. Come on. I feel like actual breasts are far less offensive than ones covered up by shitty t-shirts that are used to get commuters to pull up and order a shitty latte. (Who knows, it might be a good latte, but I doubt it. Good coffee uses no gimmicks.)
Charged with prostitution and indecent exposure, these 3 or 4 ladies were put into jail for using what “God gave them” in order to get more substantial tips because lord knows they make minimum wage.
This is not a crime. It is no different from taking verbal beating in any other customer service setting where you lose your humanity in order to get paid. In fact, maybe in doing this, these girls may, in some small way, have reclaimed their humanity a little bit. Instead of being objectified while wearing tiny t-shirts, they subjectified men and took a lot of their money. This was a business deal.
Everyone loves boobs. Everyone. Gay men. Straight men. Women. Everyone. Why are they being criminalized?
As for the indecent exposure. Is it their skin that was offensive or the idea of nudity? Or, let me ask the question this way, had they been wearing pasties (nipple shaped pasties) would they have gotten in trouble?
The place is called Java Jugs. I cannot reiterate that enough as the whole reason these men were going there was for the boobs. The idea is to sell breasts with morning joe. I don’t understand why showing the actual breast is an arrestable crime when constantly alluding to them by putting up a drive-thru is not. Is skin a crime when blatant, overt and public objectification is not?
The moral of the story though is that to catch these girls committing a “crime”, the cops, who were in plain clothes, filmed them. The girls had no idea they were going to be in porn. (And you know people who think boobs are crimes think that movies with boobs in them are porn, so don't tell me its evidence.) The cops committed a creep crime of forcing someone to be in porn without telling them and no one even blinks an eye. But the natural human body comes out and people are covering them?
Forced porn or exposed boobs, which is the crime? I don’t know, but I do feel like those cops have taken a little bit of joy from men with extra money and few perks in their lives. In this situation, nobody wins.
Uh, and ladies, quit doing stuff like that. The third wave of feminism should not be about giving back the rights and respect we are still fighting for. Come on.
