You uninstalled a ceiling fan to put up your pole!
omg these are all wonderful and SO true! I'll try not to repeat any. if you go to a gay bar and tip the dancers excessively because you realize none of the other customers can actually appreciate how difficult some of those moves were! if you drive three hours to/from pole class on a school night every week because you just HAVE to dance with other people! if you make your new roommate agree that the dining room is now a pole room before you move in. if your living room has some stategically-placed mirrors that just HAPPEN to line up with where you put your pole up if people walk into your apartment and say, "wow, you have a lot of mirrors in here." heh. if you won't wear a bikini to the pool but you'll post half-clothed videos on the internet for people to see and critique if people think you're a really boring person because when they ask, "so what do you do for fun?" you don't want to explain pole dancing, so you just go with the standard "uhmm nothing really..." (Whatever, *I* know I'm awesome!) if you go out to buy new clothes but come home and realize all you got was more workout gear if you'd rather stay in and watch pole dancing videos than go out to the bars with your friends if your friends aren't weirded out that you text them half-naked pictures of yourself ("Check out my new move!") if your friends think you're really badass because even though they work out, you work out and are SEXY
You may be a pole dancer if you are playing Draw Something on your Iphone and the word teddy comes up - and while most people would draw a teddy bear YOU draw the pole move and of course your friend playing on the other end has NO CLUE 😀

You might be a pole dancer if the only place your family remarks on you bruises are your feet and your arms (teddy, yogini) you might be a pole dancer if you have old socks that you've haphazardly sewn vinyl tack to because you're too cheap to buy the real thing, and your mother asks you, "are you sure you don't want me to put your weird workout socks in the washingmachine?" You might be a pole dancer if you work as an exotic dancer, and approach female customers in your club mostly to try to nudge them into taking classes with you instead of trying to sell them and their partner a dance :p

You may be a pole dancer if you go into your friend's house or into a customer's fashion design studio and think "ooh,high ceilings=pole=amazing spins,tricks,awesome dancing n wide floors n space mean incredible floor work"
....you have to plan and schedual for the days that you moisturise to alternate with days that you pole. .... you have skin that resembles the sahara desert. .... you spend 90% of your time on the internet researching/discussing/watching pole dancing stuff. .... your friends ask you to perform party tricks like acrobatic handstand pullups or inverts on random poles for their drunken amusement. .... if guys suddenly come on to you all heavy and strong as soon as you tell them what you do. .... every song you listen to is instantly anaylsed and judged according to the dance choreography in your head. .... you feel comfortably and appropriately dressed just in underwear. ... you daydream about possible new pole moves/tricks/variations. ... one of your best friends is an inaminate object, probably made of brass, long and spherical. ;)

Can relate too much! I gave my friend my short (8-9') pole, she kicked out her son, "So you're the person that kicked me out, I mean gave my mom and grandma a pole? (rolled eyes)" Yes her mom poles too! At our studio she's my lap *winks* I have behaviorally trained my cats (psych-behavioural student) to do many things, one was to train them to run to bed or couch when death heels are on, (not killing myself due to cats curious placement next to my feet) while dancing. Fellow students think its crazy it works, never stepped on them for reinforcement. Thank goodness. Former raver, love my music fast and long, now I find myself editing tracks to dance to. And enjoying other styles of music I could dance to. Ya know when you're a pole dancer when you smile at the last non-square post/pole sign when driving by, and boyfriend always thinks I'm checking something, someone out when I double glance to see if it is circular or square. (I think we only dine at places with square pole signs, pout) Ya know that you're a pole dancer when you go camping and wish for the ground to be flat, 'that tree is so perfect, hey why are you putting up a clothesline there?!' Ya know that you're a pole dance when you wish you could trade in your boyfriend's boat for another that has space to dance around the wake tower I would've put a pole into. Ya know when you're a pole dancer when at work it's slow and you ask your boss to buy a portable stage pole, to get customers in, I'll dance outside!! I'll buy it, just let me dance. I could've been dancing right now not being at work, pout. You know you're a pole dancer and proud of it, when you tell your senior citizen customers to bring this promo card of a discount or free class of your studio to their grand kids. And they're happy for you, ' I watched America's Got Talent, that's awesome! You do that?!' You know you're a pole trickster when you kinda hate the Olympics for being bias against Pole Sport.

@JhennaD....apparently there are more and more of us NaNa pole dancers!!! LOL and my hubby is looking to buy a bigger boat. He showed me some pics of this fabulous boat you could sleep on , he asked me if I would sleep on it? I said well can you have a pole installed...he just looked at me like really????? I was like yeah, really!!! lol Yeah and I posted all kind of video of polers on fb during the olympics becaue I really think that polers should be there...the fabulous polers ARE athletes and please someone said well but they don't wear much clothes...and I was like and the runners and other people did? Yep you may a poler if you have touched that first pole and went wheeeew was that a shiver I just felt.... 😉

You may be a pole dancer if....Last night I was at a town festival, under a tent. A little girl started walking around one of the pole supports with one hand on the pole. My husband and I both laughed and had the same thought...future poler!

You may be a pole dancer if your kids say...gosh mom you dance to anything as the 9 yr old is changing the tv away from the Disney channel.
senrysa ·
@Saphyre isn't it funny how when you're a kid it is a perfectly natural thing but later it's not.🌸
Saphyre ·
Yes, Senrysa. The Mom came over pretty quickly and scooped her up. I felt a little weird and wondered if she thought I was a stripper... (not that there's anything wrong with that!)

Love this thread! You may be a pole dancer if you convince your husband that you only need one couch in the living room because you need the rest of the space to pole (who wants company anyway)! You may be a pole dancer if you tried to change your wedding date at the last minute because you realized you wouldn't be able to go to the pole convention. (yep, I tried, but it was too late...darn). You may be a pole dance if you told your husband you couldn't go on your honeymoon "that weekend" because you were going to a pole jam. You may be a pole dancer if you find yourself pointing your toes and moving your legs around while on the train because you're doing pole moves in your head

Oh, one more thing.... You may be a pole dancer if the housekeeper tries to clean your pole and you immediately jump up and give him a lecture about NOT ever cleaning the pole because you have a special way of doing it (true story...the guys eyes got real big and he just nodded okay....hilarious).
When you change your toilet paper, you discover the paper roll fits your small hands and wish your 50mm pole would shrink ;)
if you are genuinely excited to open a gift and find it's rubbing alcohol

If you are at war with yourself because your daughter's water polo game is the same night as class. What to chose arrgghhhh what to chose! You own more pole shoes than regular shoes. Your closet consists of work uniforms, a couple regular shirts and jeans, and pole tanks, shorts, socks, leg Warmers. Only a 1/4 of the closet is non pole items. You wake up in the morning and you know "ow, we did the booty workout last night". My biggest is the fact that I plan my vacations around the number of extra pole dance classes I can squeeze in on my days off. Who cares about going somewhere on vacation, I want my pole class!

my hubby just took on remondeling a party boat ... I thought you know you are MARRIED to a pole dancer when the guys at work tease him about putting a pole on the party boat and he slipps up and says yeah but don't you have to anchor it to the ceiling...since you don't have a ceiling you can't do that...then he was pleaseantly surprised when I said: OH BUT BABY, you sure can put one on there..they make them to take all over the place now. Then he asked would you want one on it...would I want one...HELL YEAH!!! Now let's get busy and see what we can do to get this party boat on the high seas!! LOL
Your husband asks you if your cute new boyshort panties are : Your new pole shorts! LOL
Your 1 year old daughter saw u poling just once and now every time she sees a pole she grabs it and wraps her leg around it!! (soaking up things like a sponge!) Or U bring a pole to ur bachelorette party and go out of ur way to find the right size block of wood to make the pole tall enough to set up on a beam in ur tiny hotel room!! Limited tricks but always fun!! Or If at the same bachelorette party (different hotel) u show ur girls ur moves and ur MOH hires a male stripogram and he says I've never seen a pole at a party before!! Then he uses it as much as he can during the show and u spend more time looking at the ceiling thinking "I hope that I put that up good enough for him to b supported by it!!" than thinking about his moves/body lmfao!! He actually did a few tricks, not bad for never being on a pole before, I was more concerned about the pole being set up safely and him not falling on his face!!!! Or lastly (this happened today) U r at ur 11 year old sons patent/teacher conference waiting to b called in....and u go find a tether ball pole in the playground and test out the grip hoping to get a few tricks in but the damn pole was horribly slick and had weird dual finishes to it!! " I said wow that pole is slippery!" and my son tests it out and says "yup, it sure is" and I respond "well I guess that means no pole for me today :(" As some random lady who apparently saw me testing it out walks by me with a half hearted quirky smile (would have loved to read her mind, although I didn't do anything extreme) Loving this discussion btw!! Hilarious and sooooo true!!!
You may be a pole dancer if: your husband no longer gets excited when you ask for his help because he knows he's just there to spot you.

....If your Ipod little note thingy has random list of pole jargon that no one understands. I.E: Peter pan to reverse to chair, chair straight to reverse straight to wrap, and etc. {I'm a spinning combo kick obviously}

There are days you won't start you workout because you have to find your eyeliner first!
You might be a pole dancer if... your bf/husband asks what you're thinking about and you say "pole" you consider moving into a two bedroom with a futon to fit the pole you get upset when someone on youtube has thought of your perfect song to dance to (and then secretly steal their moves) you get a fluttery feeling when you think of the latest pole move you have accomplished you can't go out/study/do anything else because you have pole class to go to This thread is the best LOL <33
P.S. has anyone seen this???? LMAO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYnD11kktg8&feature=my_liked_videos&list=LLm2w7aJJLSZpJ4qiYQOQFFg
