Almost every woman in that picture is over 30....
The first 2 are my youngest ever, and they are 20 and 21 respectively...
I'm 49 BTW...

You'll find that most Raks instructors have VERY and I mean VERY strong opinions about age appropriate dress, and many won't even teach girls under 12....

I do, but very folk and only folk.

I would be just as angry if someone stuck a 6 year old in a bedlah as I would a at JB being made up and dressed in an adultish evening gown.

So no, I'm not kidding, if anything, I know that girls get sexualized pretty damn quickly, so let them be little girls until the last possible second.

I believe in little girls being little girls.

I hope they didn't have any of their children in the audience watching the sexual moves as belly dancing as shown by their outfits.

I'm talking about American Dance..American Culture where girls begin as early as 3. And again depending on the theme that is how the costumes are chosen...from Broadway to Disney Musicals...not Gypsy Rose Lee. And again it is on stage, not walking down the street.

Not all woman are sexualized either..not me, my daughters or any of my friends. So I don't understand your view of what being a woman is.
