The art and science of pole dance
This is amazing. I never acquired the pole skill displayed here because I always had too many bruises on my thighs from trying. I did master the art of undulation, however, and maybe one day I will post a video of that here. But anyone who can watch this and deny that these women have amazing strength and athletic ability, not to mention pure artistic talent, is in denial. Amazing.

These women have amazing athletic skill and flexibility. I doubt I could ever hold on to a pole with my thighs, much less spin and smile, too.
Very weird choice of music for the video, though – I love Amy Lee, but that song is just about the complete opposite of celebrating empowered womanhood.

As athletic and artistic as it might be, it isn’t what I’d call feminist.

Do the 8inch platform stillettos help their athleticism? I’m surprised none of these folks are wearing a sport corset. So when do we get to see the male competitors?
*crickets*
Obviously there’s nothing demeaning about this if the guys are doing it too. Oh wait, they aren’t.

Oh dear. You’re sounding like a bitter old church mouse.
I suppose you’re against lipstick and push-up bras, too, Hazel. What a boring world this would be if we all wore burlap knapsacks.
The men, you ask?
Try this.
And this.
And this.
How do you like your crow prepared?
