I know that I can’t do some positions while I’m on a heavy day- in yoga, I mean. They’re usually back bending positions, strangely enough, but if I stay in the position too long the cramps when I flow out of the position are unbeaaaarable.

But I also get into positions (mainly front bending positions) when my cramps are being unbearable to relive pain- so I just may have a weird uterus.

Mm!

I’m..not REALLY responding to you, David. I just want to throw around a few opinions since encouraging women to do sexy things is kind of my forte. Your reply made me think long and hard on the subject! Rest assured that I completely respect your opinion, and … just feel like expanding mine!

I’m.. somewhat straight- in that I can look at a great deal of things and find them -incredibly- attractive, so long as you don’t ask me to lick them. So… I kind of fit the suburban housewife who loves pole dancing standard.

I get INCREDIBLY excited about a sexy performance by one of us here…

for the same reason why I’m excited about someone achieving their first handspring.

Sexual strength, sexual prowess is just important as your physical strength and physical prowess… to me, of course! Hehehe. (The theme of this thread, "My opinion" "To me" "Means to me") I know sometimes women get so tied up in life and bull that we forget that one of our strengths is our ability to make the others weak in the knees. Sure, we can work and not have kids and do whatever we want- but there was a time where our meal ticket was assured through the birth canal, one way or the other. Now that we work, and we don’t have to have kids, and we’re not completely limited by our organset… we don’t practice that art that got us by for SO LONG.

So it’s kind of like knitting, sewing, cooking, gardening, carpentry. You aren’t required to do it, but practicing it is admirable! It’s useful. Useful whether you decide to use it or not. Knowing I can cook doesn’t stop me from eating out.. knowing I can hook doesn’t stop me from getting a job. LOL. I don’t have to flaunt my sex any more than I have to lift a refrigerator, but knowing I can do it makes me feel powerful.

Not to mention that a lot of us didn’t get into pole dancing for fitness, or to practice an aerial art. A lot of us got into it because we felt like shit and heard that just maybe that by acting sexy we could be sexy, and by being sexy we could regain that lost confidence. Pole dance does WONDERS for a battered self esteem…

I hear sometimes people will say, in reference to my being sexy, or acting sexy, or doing "naughty" things that I have less dignity. That I have such a low self esteem that I need to give so much of myself away for approval… that they don’t need to be sexy to feel good about themselves. WELL. Gee. And what? Maybe I do need to be sexy to feel good about myself. There, I said it. Does that make me a bad person? A lesser person? Do I need to go to therapy because I like to dance around in my panties? Do I need to "get a life"?

I just don’t think so. Some people write bad poetry. Some people work 70 hours a week. Some people eat an entire gallon of ice cream in a single setting, and then throw it up. Me? I offer myself up as a "sex object".. because sometimes, sometimes, sometimes.. I’m tired of being a "real person".

…

Again, this is me. Only me.

lol @ shitters tea.

ehehehheheheheheh.

I call it "shittea".

Keira Knightly has no boobs and she’s like.. one of the hottest women alive. Sure, her face is great.. but part of it is her delicious and visible pectorals. And hot nipples. I know they’re always photoshopping boobs on her, or painting boobs on her, or doing whatever.. but she looks so good without them! SO GOOD.

Hot nipples! Hot nipples! And lousy bra sets?! NO! No bra! No bra! Hot panties and NO BRA. You need to rock out the cutest panties in the universe without fear of mismatching them to a set. Not to mention hot nipples! The hottest nipples are on the smallest of boobs. Did I say hot nipples?!

Now. If you tell me you only have one nipple, or that they are extremely large,the size of compact discs… I may commiserate with you.. but seriously! You better love them bitties!

…oh! and thank you Elyse! I know we already talked about it, but you are the SWEETEST.
and thank you sascha! but I’m so mad that you hated your butt! Since I got here, I’ve been in ABSOLUTE AWE of your tiny waist, great hips, great booty! Awe! AWE.

SIMPLY! You have looked good at the lowest weight you’ve had on youtube, and at the highest. You will ALWAYS look great, and you will ALWAYS look beautiful. I want you to be healthy, so lets go ahead and put on a few more lbs of RIPPLING MUSCLE and a little layer of tasty fat on top. No fear about it either, because you are looooovely.

[amcut]

Heheh.

I can’t really.. find merit in the opinion of someone who takes a video of their freckles.

[amcut]

Mmm! In my adult life, I’m so very inside of myself. I do chores, run errands, hold conversations, hold myself upright. I compile lists, I pay bills, I make sure my mother is happy, my husband is happy, my numerous pets are happy. I do not sunbathe nude, or light candles in my bath tub. When I lotion, it’s purely functional.

When I dance, I am not inside of myself.. or inside of my body. I am my body. It’s.. almost like sex in that regard, that I am not a soul within a shell.. but an entire pulsing being! I’m nolonger the mind that sits in the body on the couch, reading whatever garbage I’ve picked up that week. I’m not the person halfway in and halfway out of the world driving down whichever street in whichever traffic. I’m not the girl doing yoga, pretending that I’m miles and miles away laying on a beach while I push through whatever miserable pose I’m in. I AM MY BODY. Not a body, extension of the mind.. just body. Pulsing, living, feeling, sensing body.

so. for me. dancing alone, with the pole, no cameras no gawkers no husband no nothing.. just dancing, is extremely extremely sensual.

but I also think there’s a difference between dancing by yourself and dancing with others! Kind of like it’s a private sensuality? I dunno.

I’m just kind of throwing thoughts at the wall here. I ENJOY this post. Thinking on it. I don’t want to ignore it, but I can’t put everything I feel while dancing into words. So… just an attempt. ;0

[amcut]

I have one of the least commercial bodies here, that posts videos. …. God this sounds.. so riiidiculous..But I’ve got a gut, cellulite, angel’s wings. I’ve got.. Uhhh. Thunda thighs, and my ass is kind of strangely shaped, in that it’s.. not bubbly, but not flat, but wideish? I don’t know. My boobs, they’re not perky.

…. Jesus, it sounds so ridiculous! I am not a dimpled thigh! Or a lumpy ass. I AM NOT a flabby arm. I am one total whole complete person who looks REALLY GOOD. And sometimes when I move, and it all comes together, my collection of less than perfect parts.. I am perfect.

I’m going to make a suggestion..

Get out your mirror. Set your video camera in front of it. Pose in front of the mirror. Look at what looks good and sexy and lovely on you. … Since I’m Amcut, I’d do it naked. .. but a nice panty set would probably do. All kinds of poses. Elongate, flirt, ridiculousness. The perfect video, essentially, because you can see everything you’re giving to the camera.

And then everytime you want to BEAT yourself up about a video, watch that one. You at your best. To remind you that a couple of times where you bent over at the wrong angle don’t mean anything because you have SO MANY MORE perfect, beautiful moments.

[amcut]

oh geez those are so cute!

SO CUTE.
next time I see you, I’m going to be wearing a much larger pair of them.

[amcut]

So.
I understand restrictive feminism- where one woman tells another woman that what she’s doing is degrading, that it hurts the progression of feminism, that it gives women a bad image..

As a woman, I think it’s ridiculous. I’m an individual, I can do what I want, and if the feminist agenda is so easily bruised by my sexuality.. well, it can take a hike. My desires come first.

…As a black person, do I want to bloody and beat Kanye West for his various paranoid and ridiculous activities? Why? They reinforce negative stereotypes! Yeeeah. BLOODY AND BEAT. Do I immediately feel shame because as a strong individual I understand that Kanye West is free to do whatever the hell he likes because he too is an individual and should not be stunted because of my racial perception agenda?

So. I understand that our activities- our pole dancing, our sexy, does probably bother quite a few women, and for good reason. If I were a woman who was trying hard to define myself WITHOUT my sexuality being a great portion of me….. well, I would be really annoyed by women who seemed to revel in that sexuality that I was trying so hard to steer from. Maybe he would say, "That’s a real woman", and I would not be a woman in his estimation.

As for me. I do what I want! If someone is so foolish as to package me as only one thing, they’re nuts. It reflects upon them rather than upon me. I am not just sex. Or not just an intelligent woman. I’m not just a housewife. I’m not only anything! ..Just like Kanye West isn’t just an idiot out to bruise racial relations. *keeps on reminding herself of that*

Anyways. I babble! I’m done! SWEAR.

I think SM holds are powermoves.
I love to watch leg circles and craziness in an SM

As is, it looks like pole dancers are so foolish that we can’t spell sensations.

It needs to be like…
SINsations, with the SIN looking particularly decadent.

Ooooh!

Amy, that’s one of my favorite topics! Ever!

I actually think you have to part from the studio and have your own pole to get your own style- yeah, you can take those great parts that you love- but I don’t think that if I’m spending all day doing a dance choreographed by Michula of Antix fitness, that I’m going to have anything but an ugly version of her style. (Of course, plenty of people would have a similar, goodlooking version, but I’d have an ugly one).

Or Alethea and Angela Seikman, who are be spun women, but… don’t even flip their hair like Leigh Ann.

..I think it’s a compliment, though! Like, if you were apprenticed under a master carpenter, or a protege of a philosopher and you were recognizable as a student or disciple of their learning? What’s wrong with that! Nothing! It’s not saying you’re a clone, just.. someone who picked up some styles and that they’re identifiable! And then when your style is so freaking crazy that you have no discernible former studio, someone will apprentice under you. Mm!

It’s exciting to think of!

Roxy, have you tried freezing your tofu?

Anything that makes you lose weight that fast leaves you with a shit ton of skin.
My elasticity is excellent, but I’m not going to test it with something that rapid.

I’d much rather lose the dreaded 1 lb a week and have my boobs keep up with their deflation than lose 30 lbs in a month and have saggy boob bags sitting on top of my saggy stomach bag, on top of my saggy pubic mound, on top of my saggy thighs. Can you hear my morbid fear of extra skin coming out? LOL
