That's the message the Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission is sending with a lawsuit against an Omaha real-estate company that refused to rent to a topless dancer. The Richdale Group had declined to lease an apartment to Charleigh Greenwood after she listed her occupation as a "dancer" at a Council Bluffs, Iowa, lounge. The NEOC in its lawsuit said such a refusal discriminates against women because labor statistics show women make up 98 percent of dancers in the state and 96 percent of dancers nationwide.
