Thoughts? Is this ok?
My feeling is despite the origins in stripping in its current form it is no different than dancing. I dont see a problem with this. But I'd like to hear your thoughts.
@mundauf I dont think it would be possible with pants.
@freemo
I have a few friends doing pole dance, and 2 teaching it (my circus-related past), both male and female. It's really more akin to an aereal disciplines like chinese pole or trapeze than to dancing imo, great fun and healthy activity!
@freemo @arteteco Something about the advert makes me uncomfortable, and I think it's that there's a sexualization of children aspect to it. At least, as I see it.
Like, I've got no issue with pole dancing as a workout, or even an art piece, but I don't know. It feels a little weird and makes me uncomfortable. It might be cognitive dissonance because I, personally, immediately associate pole dancing with strip clubs and that's a kid on a pole and Ew.
@arteteco Actually thats a very fair point, it does seem more like an acrobatic thing to me, close to rope dancing really.
@freemo At least she could wear pants, right? I mean, this looks just like underwear to me.
