I wonder when we will all be required to wear masks and head to foot clothing?

This seems like a good start down that road.

[Farmersfan]

Many high schools have already outlawed dances completely.

[BreckTxLonghorn]

I don't see what the big deal is? If it was an official school sponsored dance, we weren't allowed to dance that way, and in junior high we couldn't slow dance closer than a balloon's width.


Nothing against dancing that way, but if you want to do that, just go find a place to dance that isn't sponsored by the school. I can understand why they would not want to be overtly accepting of this practice.

There's a time and a place for everything - it's called college.

[Ranger Mom]

Is "sexual bending" the same thing kids call "freak dancing" around here??

Or used to anyway....I am kinda out of the loop when it comes to dancing lingo these days.

Freak Dancing is the umbrella that sexual bending falls under. You can freak dance and not sexcual bend, but you can't sexual bend without freak dancing.

:D :D :D

[NateDawg39]

So should we start "outlawing" sexual stretching to? Or sexual gestures, sexual thoughts, sexual feelings?

A society of robots told what to do and how to act and how to think...I can't wait:rolleyes:

If you are saying that you think there is no difference between bending over and bending over during a song to protrude the derrier further into someones crotch in order stimulate as well as simulate sexual acts, you are either ignorant or obstinate.

Sexual gestures, as in grabbing a crotch? or bosom? Or gesturing to someone that you want to do that? Or flipping the bird? Or dry-humping? Yeah, pretty sure that's not allowed in school either. At work, we call that sexual harrassment; you could get fired for doing that a job, why wouldnt you get suspended for doing that at school?

And I enjoyed dancing that way as much as the next guy; I just damn sure wasn't going to do it at school or a school related event.

It does not take an expert to see the things different bewteen the two. I am saying that this is the start of something that will, in the end, go to far and cause society to look down on all things sexual. Is it wrong to do so in school? I guess so, but dang, we see it on TV and in books and all around us. Telling a kid they CANT do something will cause them to find that urge to do it elsewhere.

The ones who do not see that are ignorant I suppose.

I guess I am ignorant then, because I DO NOT think dancing like that should be allowed at a school sponsored function.

I mean that the kids will look to dance like that out of school more and more because of the way our society portrays it on TV and everwhere else for that matter. Sorry for the confusion :)

That's an argument that gets overused sometimes IMO. To say that we're not going to ban this thing that's bad because we're starting down some kind of slippery slope is a cop-out. And are you really suggesting that banning sexually suggestive dancing at school events will cause our entire society to look down on all things sexual?

[BreckTxLonghorn]

Did anybody else get another thought of sexual bending before reading the article? One that caused them to wince in pain with the idea of 'bending'?


That was my first thoughts at least :(

I just want to know how far it will go before we realize it is the crap that comes from Hollywood and anyone involved in entertainment purposes, that causes this mess we see happen at school with our children. I am for banning it, I think it is great, but let us be realistic here, how far will they have to go to outlaw different things before it becomes a real problem.

I think for me this isn't a situation where I'm looking at the big picture. When a problem is that big or that global, then I just want to take it on one step at a time. Can we solve the problems of teenage sexuality in this country, or the oversexualization of Hollyweird and mass media? No. But we can tackle this aspect of it in a decisive way. Why not do it?

[SintonFan]

So is this type of dancing really called "Sexual" bending?
Doesn't the name itself make a case for why it is inappropriate in schools? :nerd:

[SWMustang]

Who dances with both feet on the floor at all times? Wouldn't that be swaying?

I'm with Breck as far as what I thought sexual bending was. Makes you think differently about a 3 day bender....

[NateDawg39]

So are they going to watch for a foot to come off of the ground? and if so, what is the punishment

I think the "Sexual Bending" name was applied by someone with a agenda for casting a bad moral light on the dance style. Pretty much the same as people use to think about Elvis and his hip movements. Do you think these kids today are any more sexually frusterated by "Sexual Bending" type dancing than kids were who use to do the dances from the 50s, 60s or any other generation? At one time young boys thought seeing a girls ankles was darn near pornographic. Isn't it all a matter of perspective?

So tell me something. Can you cast it in a positive moral light with a serious face?:thinking: :p
BTW, "Pretty much the same as people use to think about Elvis and his hip movements." is kinda funny.
I understand your analogy, but do you approve of the sexualization of our children because we should just let it happen and trust in the wisdom of kids to do what is right? Maybe adult parents(I have met too many kids raising kids, not based on age) should have a greater impact on this they have had lately. It seems like the more power given to children the more chaotic society becomes.:hand:

[BullsFan]

I would like anyone here with a teenage daughter tell me they'd be fine with their daughter arching their derriere into some guy's crotch at a public school dance. Seriously. Or anyone at all to tell me for what reason this should be allowed.

and FF, comparing this to looking at girls' ankles...for what reason? We can look back at those times and realize how innocent that really was. Is the implication that at some point in the future we'll look back and realize how innocent grinding is? Yeah, no. A glimpse of an ankle is not the same thing as simulated sex on a public dance floor.

Why were girls required to cover up their ankles at that point in history?

You miss the biggest point Bullsfan: """"YOU"""" won't be able to look back on grinding and view it as innocent like """"YOU""""" can look back at the innocence of your youth. But the KIDS that are grinding now will look back on grinding and view it the same way you view your past. The thing is you can't apply YOUR perspective on both generations or you are doing exactly what your parents did and their parents did and theirs before them. They felt just as justified in their opinions about girls showing their ankles as you feel about this grinding thing. Some have learned from the lessons of the past and apparently some have not.

But please notice that I also said I would not approve of it in a school function. But I dont' condemn the style, just the venue.

So are you saying that """YOU""" would be perfectly fine allowing your teenage daughter to grind then? After all, in a couple of generations they'll probably actually be having sex on the dance floor, and then all this fuss about grinding will seem silly.

You like to exaggerate and hyperbolize and totally ignore parts of my posts. I hope you don't mind me returning the favor.

Sorry for all the exaggerated words and hyperbolizing (as you put it). I was only trying to make a point and to emphasize the word YOU. The point was that history has shown us repeatedly that the older generation will judge the actions and cultures of the younger generation based on how it effects ""THEM""" (sorry) rather than on how it effects the people actually doing it. And every older generation has been wrong in the past and will probably be wrong in the future as well! The kids always grow up to become bigger and better than the generation before them and the world moves on. That's all I'm saying!

So again I ask...would you be okay with your teenage daughter grinding at a public school dance?

For me, I agree with what you said. We do judge both past and future generations based on our own beliefs and mores. But I believe there are moral absolutes. I believe that it's wrong for teenagers to have sexual relations. So for me, it's wrong to take the attitude that we should let teenagers do what they want because generational beliefs differ and a century ago it was improper just to see a woman's ankles. You seem to believe that we're on some sort of sexual development timeline, with current practices falling somewhere between the oft-mentioned ankles and whatever is to come for generations ahead. I believe that wrong is wrong, and I refuse to be a facilitator for any further loosening of the sexual reins, so to speak. In the long run, it probably won't matter what I say or do, but I'll have a much easier time sleeping at night if I know I've done what I believe is right.

I give in BullsFan! I'm don't want to get into another "MORALS" debate and that is where this is going. Every single parent thoughout history that told their kids not to do something also felt they had a "MORAL ABSOLUTE" to fall back on and that "Wrong is Wrong". Of course yours is probably better than theirs was. :D

And I would not want my daughter dancing like this and I am confident that if I had a daughter that she would not want to dance like this because of how I raised her. I raised two boys and neither would even consider it. But let me turn it back on you? If your daughter were to dance like this would she become sexually active if she wasn't or would she be unable to control herself if she was already sexually active. Would this style of dance alter your childs sexual lifestyle in way, shape or form? Don't equate "DANCE" with sexual activity! If the kids are going to be sexually active they will be sexually active regardless of what kind of dance they do!

Sorry, you are wrong. On what basis do you draw this?
There have been many many civilizations before who became "bigger and better" before. What you are defending is exactly why "bigger and better" started every civilization who believed this down a slope down their own doom. And then the world moves on...:rolleyes:

The fact that today's kids even WANT to dance in that manner should be disturbing enough.

Senior prom would have been so much more boring if everyone wasn't grinding all over each other.

[BullsFan]

I think sexually suggestive dancing is like pornography. It's impossible to define but you know it when you see it. I think this school district did try to define it, and in case anyone tried to argue the exact definition of grinding, they specified it as sexual bending. Sort of silly, but I get where they were going.

It is a start, and I am sure later down the road, more schools will attempt the same thing and will have different views and rules also

The Bay City Junior High 8th grade is having non-school sponsored dance in April that parents are sponsoring

We had high school homecoming dance with a live band back in the 70s and danced as closed as we wanted but that was a different time.

Now they mainy have 5th quarter dances or gatherings after home football games or homecoming at a church.

Hard to get chaperones.

We went to dances on the weeked at the old Riverside Hall in East Bernard or other towns like Hillje, Taiton, Swiss Alp, Fairchild.

I can assure you, and maybe that poster could also.... there was no boodie hunching, crotch hugging, leg humping, simulated sex, boodie arches, hip heeves, leg raises, crotch grinding, or tail raising, going on at that dance...now dancing closely or just plain hugging while moving in a small circle to the rythm of the music as the poster described by "as close as we wanted" is very tolerable from the eyes of a father who attended many harmless cotilian dances in his time and also has two daughters. This nonesense they do these days is very vulger, dispicable, and tastless. Makes all the young women involved, look very, very, very cheap, easy and also very loose morally. The young men involved in this crap should be jap slapped by their fathers, and told to respect the young women of todays society.

I don't know why I posted the link PP! I guess because I have been fighting this unwinnable battle on this subject and i wanted to show that primarily this type of parent/child interaction has been happening since the beginning of time. I don't agree with the dances they are doing either but I try to remember that my parents said the same things about what I did and their parents said the same things about what they did and so on and so on. And kids today are basically good kids. Based on what they are exposed to these days it's amazing they turn out as good as they do. Maybe it's a testiment to fine parents like yourself. If a parent raises his child correctly then it shouldn't matter how they dance.
Anyway! Have a great weekend everybody and be safe.
