Ridiculous cultural relativism can be applied to almost any transgression.

If you don't like naked males, don't watch Torchwood.

If you want to be part of the technology community, but feel uncomfortable with strippers and lap-dances, too bad?



"If you want to be part of the technology community, but feel uncomfortable with strippers and lap-dances, too bad?"

Um, just go to any of the thousands of other conferences that are not "Hack Day in Taiwan"? You are interpolating too much - there was ONE event with dancers (not strippers it seems), and you seem to think it is common to all events.

Here is a thing about the media: only unusal stuff gets reported. The dancers are unusal, hence they make a blip on the radar. Just try any other event or conference and you should be fine.

Good luck.

That may be, but before you abandon the question, I suggest watching that Google Techtalk.
