Acts like the ones in these vids, to me, are are just the same as any other trained dance/acro/gymnastic type. And very similar to aerial silks as well. When I see stripper on a pole I think "Hey, stripper on a pole". The two styles are not at all similar to me, but both awesome, and I don't know why conservatives get all hung up about it.
Cannot wait for BF to get home and translate the conversation in these links for me. I really want to know what the guy in the glasses is saying!
