Would he touch it with a 10-foot pole?
See, this is what happens when you don't pay attention at meetings.

Davis County Commissioner Bret Millburn is all in a lather, according to this Standard-Examiner report, about the fact that he and his fellow commissioners gave the go-ahead for the Miss Pole Dance Utah competition to take place May 16 at the Davis Conference Center in Layton.

Millburn said that his notes from the commission's last meeting listed the event as "adult dancing and fitness." But seeing the event's web site, which bills the event as "Fetish: Battle of the Pole Dancers," got Millburn's knickers in a twist.

Millburn should read the lengthy restrictions in the competition's dress code (which stresses complete coverage of the breasts and buttocks, and immediate disqualification for "wardrobe malfunctions") to see that this event is not going to be like the average visit to the local strip club.

Meagan Burroughs, owner of Adult Dance & Fitness in Ogden and one of the event's sponsors, told the Standard-Examiner that competitors focus on the physical aspects of pole-dancing, not the sexuality of it.

Burroughs, 25 and the mother of a 3-year-old, said her husband doesn't find "pole dancing all that sexy, because when you're sweating and upside down, it's not pretty and not as attractive as people think."
