Necessity or political correctness? “Undressing with the eyes” prohibits henceforth “through the bat” to its patrons Sydney’s Club 77 in Australia.
The controversial new form of “harassment” under the club’s security policy leads to trouble with the law, as the stares need the consent of patrons. Those who break the new rules, the the police take over “for further information”.
Also, the entertainment center discourages people from coming to the club if their “sole purpose” was to meet someone, to flirt.
In an Instagram post earlier this month, Club 77 announced that “security waiters” in pink vests will be enforcing the “no staring policy.”
Club 77 says it wants to remain a “safe space” for young women and men. He has been forced to impose his new rules because he has recently “attracted some people who don’t share the values ​​and ethics of the club’s culture”. “We also have an obligation to educate new patrons of the club and help them understand what is considered unacceptable behavior inside the venue and on the track,” it said.
According to the club’s management, the venue’s new policy is not intended to discourage people from “interacting with strangers”, but “any engagement should begin with verbal consent” unknown how this will be implemented.
Club co-owner Dan Gorrell told the Daily Telegraph that no one had (yet) been kicked out of the club for staring, but they wanted to lay down the ground rules as the club had started to become increasingly popular with young people.
“Someone who stares it can make someone feel uncomfortable. People want to go out, have fun but also feel safe. They don’t want other people chasing them, persistently ‘pinning’ them. The public response to it – so far – has been extremely positive,” insisted Dan Gorrell.
