Only thing i can add really is that woman themselves need to decide what they want as a gender.

There are 3.5 billion women on Earth and all are different human beings with different personalities, ideals, moralities, experiences, sexualities, social and cultural backgrounds, religions and various other creeds and beliefs. So no, we can't decide what we want "as a gender", because our gender is not our only defining characteristic. You can't expect 3.5 billion humans to decide on how to behave as a hive mind. And there isn't one set of rules on how to be a woman, how to think as a woman or how to behave as a woman.
Yes, some women believe stripping for money is okay and within their right to choose as a lifestyle, while some women will be outraged. Is this surprising? I assume some people of more liberal upbringing will not care if someone strips for money; people from conservative traditional societies influenced by some of the more constrictive religious systems will think it's a sin and to be punished.
Me? I believe feminism is about giving every person a choice to be what they want to be without defining them through their gender and without using their gender to impose restrictions or demand actions.
OT: This ties pretty well with the topic, as these people obviously consider that "all men" and "all women" are [insert some stereotypes] and base their entire world views on that. This is a very sad and potentially dangerous world view to have, especially when it's forced onto other people and/or promoted, even taught, as the only acceptable behavioral pattern
for an entire gender. I know, no one is teaching men to be pickup artists, but some of this is reflected in how we, for example, expect men to be "hunters" and women to be the "prey", how we tell men to "man up" and just ask a girl out, while we teach girls to just wait passively (and then shame, discriminate and attack those who do not conform).
