What I like most...

Someone posted the question, what do you like most about being a belly dancer? I thought about it for some time and here's what I came up with...

Belly dance is the only place, the only group, I have found that has such a supportive female environment. Of course there are always a few bad apples, but once those rot, all we are left with is a wonderful, all-inclusive sport. Belly dancers can be of any size, shape, color, religion, and age. Any woman can become an incredible belly dancer despite (and because of) all of these things. Belly dancers band together in a world where the normal family/friend systems are falling apart. I love belly dance with my passion and soul. I can not think of any group that I would rather belong to. Belly dance is female empowerment!
