The strippers I know are often victims of childhood abuse and neglect. To say they are seeking acceptance and admiration, while true on one level, cruelly simplifies a complex and tragic issue, and shows a sort of simple minded lack of empathy, and, in this case, makes me cringe instead of laugh. (I usually like the strip and think it’s pretty funny.)
