isnt the story of te irish jig a dance trying to be as sexy as it can, within the shackles of the clammy grasp of the catholic church?


>> ^xxovercastxx:

But not all dances are mating rituals. I have a very difficult time finding this sexy, for example. It's hard to believe anyone finds a jig arousing.
Many cultures have war dances in their history and animals also dance to settle territory disputes without violence.

It's been around since life began in my observation so how did it start? Well even animals dance right? Why do they do it? Because spring has hit and its time to procreate. >> ^xxovercastxx:

Dancing is provocative to begin with, the whole point of dancing is to attract the opposite sex.

well because personally I cant go and rail on my "brother in law " whatever the fuck that is. Some guy who married my sister. Aint no brother of mine. heh. But you are right, the parents are completely need a finger wagged at them and "for shame for shame " being said. I really have a problem with girls acting like whores, when I was in high school in 1996-2000, thats when the zoologist started shifting, first it was the skin tight black pants with or without the flared ankles, and then It just progressed from their. Teens now dress like wannabe strippers and It pisses me the hell off that parents allow the young ones to listen to lady gaga and beyonce and all this other tripe that passes for music. Those girls are nothing close to role models for children.


I wish I had a wooden train whistle, I would love to blow my horn, WHEWWWWWW WHEWWWWWWWW !

How about beating the fuck out of the parents? I saw an interview with one dad and he didn't see a single problem with it. I heard someone give the excuse of "oh, well the costume is designed so that the judges can more clearly see the lines of movement blah blah blah" So why the fuck can these girls NOT wear a fucking leotard instead? something a little less sexually charged than a two piece that looks like it came off the design table of Victoria's secret? At the VERY least, why isn't the top piece more covering? that thing is barely thicker than duct tape. Might as well have used pasties. Not to mention the knee-high fuck-me boots.

And that doesn't even cover the dance moves. Any instant you have booty-popping in a dance routine, an 8 year old should NOT be doing it.

I never said I thought sex when little girls dance, but when you see provocative dancing that does cross the mind. The real video with Beyonce is sexy and the song is sort of as well. Oh and I guess your right there are war dances I was not thinking of that guess I was wrong about that. There is also worship dancing as well.

No LOL I'm from Texas. Besides that I'm really not very religious and I'm not saying dancing is proven to be provocative just my own opinion for why we do it. It's been around since life began in my observation so how did it start? Well even animals dance right? Why do they do it? Because spring has hit and its time to procreate. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with dancing at all its just a courtship ritual in the primitive form. I love the old Lindie Hop myself some dancing is more provocative than others. Why must they be doing a dance thats a directly mimics sex? Also girls are objectified anyway in life why make it worse? Or start it at such an early age. I don't know maybe I'm backwards on this subject but thats the way I look at it. Oh and I'm not 70 either I'm 30.

Excellent choreography and execution.
Were they dressed skimpy? Maybe to some, whose thoughts automatically go in that direction, but I didn't see it. I was captivated by the performance.
And if this is too skimpy, then you better shut down the beaches, as I guarantee their swimsuits are more revealing than these costumes.


I agree. The choreography was very good, and those girls hit their marks. That's no easy feat (feet?).

Actually, for little kids not even in the double-digits, they did a damn good job.

And it's a show. If they were dressing like that for school, or heading to the playground in the park, then maybe I'd be a bit more alarmed...but we can't inundate our culture with sexuality and provocativeness and expect the kids to pretend that it doesn't exist.

They don't think that they are doing anything "bad" by dancing like that; they're just doing it in a way similar to the way they've seen it done by Britney and Christina, et al.

Dude you should of made a scene that would have been gold. I am in a total agreement with you, can't for the life of me understand why people want there little girls to grow up so fast by subjecting them to the adult world so early.
In reply to this comment by KnivesOut:
I was forced to sit through a FOUR HOUR dance recital not long ago, since my niece (who was 6 at the time) was participating. She had a total of about 4 minutes of dancing, and the rest was watching other peoples kids dance. The variety of performances was all over the map, ballet, tap, modern (like the video above), clogging, etc.

Let me tell you, people seem to have no problem with dressing their daughters up like tramps to perform suggestive dances in front of crowds.

I just don't get it. It was very uncomfortable. Here I am, a grown man, I know my boundaries, and yet here's a situation where they are apparently consciously tempting you over that line. It was very awkward. Thankfully, my wife (who was just as uncomfortable about the ordeal) has vowed to never let my sister-in-law guilt us into attending another.

Can anyone explain to me why this is considered one of the best videos of all time? Aside from Kanye, I've heard others say it's an amazing video.
Don't ask me, I was just quoting Kanye.

>> ^Payback:
I was under the impression all three girls were Beyonce.
According to wiki, the others are lookalike backup dancers Ebony Williams and Ashley Everett.


Wow.. gotta love our world today.
Compare the length of the article you linked, on Beyonce's music video, to an article on Chinese art.
