[CS-FSLUG] Problem With Referring Site(s)

At the end of last month, and now this month, I've been getting sites
in the "referring Sites" section of AWStats that are not exactly the
kind of sites I want being linked with.  I'm more than happy to see
sinners come to the website from anywhere - but I just don't quite
grasp someone coming to my site from (apparently) a "male-strippers"
site.  Yes I checked.  And yes, it is exactly that. :{  Arrrgghhh!

Has anyone else experienced this issue before?  Is this a type of
"spam" attack or phishing scheme (designed to get me to look)?  Is
there any thing much I can do to eliminate these kinds of "referrals"?
 My guess is that someone visited my site after visiting this site, so
it shows up in my referral logs.  I assume the lady (or whomever) is
having fun.  Any ideas or suggestions?
