Below is a copy of my post on Bhuz..
this book is dire....
I had hoped this book was about why women in the West take up belly-dancing instead it's part belly dance as therapy/part how to seduce your sultan.....now part from godessy-smoddessy cr*p,nothing else is better designed to a) make me helpless with laughter b)speechless with exasperation.
Still this book claims belly dancing can:
mend a broken heart
release past wounds
heal sexual wounds
get away from the wrong man
dance away your grief
alleviate certain medical conditions - yes exercise can make you feel good,improve your health but these kind of claims seem to make it seem as if belly dance has some sort of magical qualities
mesmerise and tantalise your husband,make him feel special..blah bah...why is it always about what we can do for men..let 'em get their own f***ing therapy
and I'm getting so irritated reading this verbage( or some similar word) I am gonna need some thearapy

I don't think the shimmying is going to help those.

Maybe he would need a dancing paramedic.As for layering shimmies, I'm with Aniseteph on that one
Glad I never heard of this book before your review, as i am a bit of a magpie when it comes to books about BD

"Your lover is a king with his own harem and you his favourite. Dress up your bedroom to look like a Hollywood Harem (Is that the chicken ranch?) Place plenty of pillows on the floor to sit on,drape veils over tables and other furniture, (hide the Ikea and hope it doesn't fall over on you),place a bowl of grapes by the bed (so you can spit pips at him) and use red light bulbs ( can you get light efficiency ones in red...hasn't she heard of EU directives?) for soft lighting. Use your imagination and play the part of his Fantasy Harem girl. Treat him like the king he is.".... do we we have a sick bucket smilie? BARF BARF....

OK now I'm confused - is this a picture OF a belly dancer (hee hee, watch her jump!) or some Arabesque calligraphy, genie lamp, camel....?
Either way I don't it would necessarily be a sight to remember in a good way.
(PS. got it - it's a whole troupe, across both cheeks! :lol: :lol: :lol

i know who i am when i bellydance
why? why ?why? this book be written and please pass that sick bucket. any one who knows anything knows a husband isn't a sultan when it comes to bellydancers he's your trusty native bearer for the goodies you find at dance fairs and fabric shops. After the shopping trip you can be very nice to him by not playing your bd cds in the car and having a nice dinner (either out, take-in, or do it yourself)
