I think the issues are easier to address in terms of illegal and not in line with the moral culture of the martial arts. If they are illegal then you have a legal response ability to act. If you don't you could end up losing more then just your school. But when it isn't illegal then you have option try and make a difference in their life. Help the stripper gain enough self respect that she dosen't have to be used as a sex toy. Help the students living together understand the responseabilites of what they are doing, and the requirements of chastity. I do realize this is a hard stand for a school owner to take. You will obviously loose many students that won't want to be burdened with a list of moral requirements. Because I don't teach for profit I have a lot more freedom in telling people what rules they have to follow. When you make a living at it you might not have that option.
