If a lawsuit challenging Kenton County's new strip club regulations ever makes it to trial, its outcome could hinge on the question of when dance crosses the line from legitimate performance to lewd behavior.
Both sides are expected to call on a host of witnesses to debate the merits and drawbacks of separating dancers and customers, a key point in the ordinance Kenton Fiscal Court approved in August.
Ask Judith Hanna, a professor of anthropology at the University of Maryland, and she'll tell you that limiting the distance between dancers and customers inhibits the dancers' communication with customers, infringing on their 1st Amendment rights.
