Apparently, a child can also perform at a gay strip club before they are 18 in NY. As reported, that specific kid doesn't take all his clothes off (child protective services might finally do something if that was the case) but they are otherwise acting out an adult fantasy for the crowd. It's only slightly less sick. The gays say they don't want people to think they're pedos or be associated with them but then they allow something like that (at least whoever owns the bar and the patrons are ok with it). As sick as regular strip clubs are, I doubt they would ever let a 10 year old do a fake strip show (fake in the sense that the kid would not actually take their clothes off) and if they did, I am pretty sure arrests would happen. See link for details (felt obligated to provide one as this story seems to insane to be true, in the real world at least, not in pedo clown world):
