Is there a difference between a stripper pole and a fitness pole for dancing?
If not, why can’t I just buy that “fitness pole” advertised on tv for 10 bucks instead of spending 50 bucks at the adult toy store?

They come from the same idea. The “fitness” pole orginates from strip clubs too, even though some women like to kid themselves and say it doesn’t.
yep, hoe culture has really taken over.
I think you've been mislead by a bit of sensationalized PR-speak. Pole-dancing (has nothing to do with taking your clothes off) has become a huge thing in fitness clubs in the US. There's hardly a fitness club that doesn't have some kind of pole-dancing class. Even the Wikipedia article on pole-dancing mentions: “Pole dance as exercise — Recently, pole dancing has caught on as a new and increasingly popular form of exercise, in which women (and sometimes men) use the pole as a workout prop. This form of exercise increases upper body strength (by using the body itself as resistance) while toning the body as a whole.”
So, before getting in a moral froth over 14-year-olds being trained for a future in human trafficking and forced prostitution, I think a little bit of perspective is needed…
I posted a blog looking back from 2030 to 2009 to discuss how the economy was the catalyst for change in how advertising works. One of the things I brought up is the idea that “no one ever got fired for buy TV” was a joke. If I owned any large corporation and it was suggested that I sink a majority of my budget solely into TV they would be fired. TV has its place, it's right next to online, Social Media, web video, email, mobile, experiential, etc. You can see it here:
