Welcome with all my heart Brea !!!!
This was the most amaging introducing message I've ever read.
And I'm so glad you are among us.
Just someone tell me what is not about sex in our life at the end of the day?
And I'm speaking with the philosophical/nature/surviving the universe sense and also with the reality.
Cars are designed with special geometry to give subconsious signals about sex.
And a dance where a women is half naked, moving even with the most teqnical/artistic/musical way her body, isnt?
Its just not consious (from westerns mostly). But its there.
On the other hand at least for me, its one of the few surviving and living so strong dances today with such cultural connection with the nations that was raised from. The arab world.
And for me its not an illusion anymore, that I can only do my best but I will never reach the level of connection with this culture, this music and this dance as the native dancers or even enjoy to the level arab audience do, a dance from Fifi for example, even if my heart breaks and melts when I see her dancing baladi.
Because I'm just not (unfortunately for the love of oriental dance) arab.
Greeks are near to arabs but heyyyyy we do miss things.
