Can someone please tell me what the allure of twerking is. To me they all look like baboons. Am I missing something.

Whst is twerking???

urban mating call

A "dance" involving people (mostly women) bouncing their a$$ up and down

@No1: To Twerk is to dance to popular music in a sexually provocative manner involving thrusting hip movements and a low, squatting stance.

@MariahFantasy - guess you may have hit the nail on the head, however, due to my age I no longer quantify as a reliable statistically valid answer source

@OP: As an African, I have often heard of the term being a Baboon, however, twerking was ne'er a part of the scene in which I grew up in ..........which thereso makes me null and void as far as a comment is concerned

@those of interest - dancing is defined as the activity of dancing for pleasure or in order to entertain others............

I sy the baboon comment because aaccording to animal planet. Baboon mating ritual is very similar to twerking.

It's not even good when Bambi does it.

Hi,its a nice topic,however,i personaly feel its degrading to say they look like baboons doing it though,mostly black women do it so................yeah,but other than that,we love/I i love to see women do it,maybe you sould go on youtube or somthin and learn it ,then watch that @$$ bounce up and down in the mirror,trust me,you're not going to beleive all of that is yours and that it can move in such way like it aint gat no bone,now go ahead and try it,before you knock it lol!!

Sooooo.. it is like having sex in the shower...lmao

yes...exactly like that

The animated movie The Wild Thornberrys Movie ends with a scene in which baboons engage in twerking.
So, perhaps the act of Humans twerking is some kind of salute to Nature.

Um no they only way my bootie is gonna bounce is when it has satisfying help in private.

You know that is exactly what pops in my head every time I see twerking lmao.

Dances of all kinds have always been part of the human mating ritual.

And old folks complaining about the way young folks dance has always been part of the human aging ritual.

Never knew 29 was considered old NTM many twerkers are as old if not older.

Reminds me of the soul train .

Reminds me of the soul train .

I had a woman lead me on to the dance floor at a jazz club; I thought I would hold her and dance. She started twerking and I had no idea what to do, as it appeared she was dancing by herself, I backed off the dance floor and left her to it

They be getting it...only in America...I love it...

LOL
