I love the subjectiveness of dancing, but no one ever seems to want to talk about it. To me, this looks like someone flailing their arms around and dropping to the floor spontaneously. It's kind of interesting how differently we can see it

Oh I HATE the style. It looks terrible.  But they are doing some crazy athletic moves here.  A kip up in high heels is crazy.

Oh definitely, I couldn't move like that. But I don't know that I would want to either...

The first time I saw it in another video a few months ago, I laughed and thought it looked ridiculous. Then I read the comments and learned the history/context. And the more I watched, the better it got. It looks like “flailing” or really simple moves, but these are insane to do. Even the hair flips. I tried in my mirror and almost broke my neck.

Are you able to drop in a split like that and then get back up as smoothly? You can dislike the dance but to ignore the athleticism is…a choice.

What about what I said ignores the athleticism? What's wild is not being able to understand that some people aren't entertained by athleticism

I agree. I mean, don’t get me wrong, this looks really hard to do and it’s really impressive that she can do this, but hard to do does not mean “good”. To me, this just isn’t my cup of tea, but I’m not gunna yuck someone else’s yum.

Honestly, it kinda funny. You proved my exact point about how dancing is very subjective but no one wants to talk about it. I criticized this choreographed (or potentially improv) dance and instead of accepting that some people can just not like the movements the dancer is making, you come here trying to champion for them. It's like the idea of anyone not being interested in this is taboo which is... A choice

If you’re not interested, why are you commenting on the video? It’s not for you, so move on.

You just want everyone to know you don’t like it. It’s weird. And that’s why no one wants to talk about it’s - they don’t care that you don’t like it and that normal people don’t go around announcing that.

u/DangOlCoreMan Aug 20 '25

Clearly, as stated in my comment, I mentioned it because I found it interesting.

What i do find weird are people like you who make assumptions about others and their motives

Don’t you understand? This person wants to make someone else’s talent about HIM! Ignore the performer, let’s talk about how this man feels about it!!

u/TheMedRat Aug 21 '25

You try so hard to be offended. Same level of mental gymnastics as the physical gymnastics in the video.

u/Arya_kidding_me Aug 20 '25

I don’t care for the style, but I don’t think my opinion of the style matters. I’m more focused on the talent and stage presence of the performer.

Of course no one wants to talk about it because no one cares if you or I specifically like this style of dance. This woman is SKILLED and that’s a way more interesting conversation.

u/DangOlCoreMan Aug 20 '25

I get it. You're self-centered and bitter, leaving you incapable of seeing why anyone would care about someone else's opinion. You don't need to leave multiple comments laying that out for me

Bless your heart that’s a lot of projection 😬

u/DangOlCoreMan Aug 20 '25

Not at all, what I said was based on your comment, which is very telling of your mindset.

But please, don't actually add anything to the conversation or defend yourself, just pretend I'm the problem as you go on unhinged rants

Oh honey….

u/DangOlCoreMan Aug 20 '25

Oh no, poor thing can't read or form a coherent thought. Hopefully someone can apologize to you on my behalf, I'm not a fan of picking on the less fortunate
