Occasionally The Boondocks features some groundbreaking storylines about sex and culture. But in the following clip they recycle every stereotype about strippers imaginable. It’s sad when so little effort goes into writing a cartoon that’s supposed to be so cutting edge.
Also, it seems that the best place to meet a stripper is at the grocery store. Who knew? I always thought the best place would be at a strip club.

I think it’s just a reminder that no matter how intelligent, progressive, or open-minded people are/purport to be, there are always personal biases that still exist.
