A group of strippers between the ages of 18 and 21 are suing the city of Reno over a new law banning women younger than the legal drinking age from working in strip clubs.
The Reno Gazette-Journal reports the eight strippers are seeking $15 million in damages for alleged violations of their civil rights. The women argue the city's licensing requirements imposed on female topless dancers and not male dancers are discriminatory.
