So, I get it. Belly dance usually gets a bad rep and people will say some offensive things. I usually brush it off and explain that it's only sexual if you make it so. But what about when belly dancers themselves have such negative things to say? I feel like it's a million times worst when a belly dancer themselves says that it's shameful. Especially because my best friend is Egyptian and her whole family belly dances, even nieces because it's a cultural thing. They all belly dance together at family parties and its makes me upset when a girls who belly dance say things that someone who knows nothing about belly dance would say. Of course there's ways to make the movements very sexual, but even most of my guy friends find it more boring than sexual.
