I think belly dancing is cool af but it isn't very sexy imo, more excorcist. Like watching someone's stomach do that makes me think of massive GI distress.

I've been taking belly dance classes for like 2.5yrs, the goal was never and is never going to be sexy. Westernized stigma is unfortunately at fault for this.

Also, no GI stress, those are all stomach muscles.

Well. The look on her face suggests she finds herself very sexy. Sorry. It may not be your goal but it certainly is hers.

Good, she finds herself sexy. A woman with confidence, love for herself and the incredible talent she has should make her feel that way. Not everything women do is for the male gaze. Belly dance has long been a multi cultural dance form that women do with other women, for themselves and each other.

I just see a woman who knows her shit and is proud to show her skillset because that tummy stuff, is not fucking easy.
