I was telling my DH about "twerking." We were talking about it, whether it was attractive or not, etc., was it necessary or not, etc., so without further ado, and NO scatology, please, yes or no answers only (not sure is also acceptable ) : 1. Can you twerk ? 2. Do you think that you can twerk ? 3. Is twerking necessary ? 4. Is twerking here to stay ? I'll think of another question tomorrow.

Yes Yes Not sure what that means It's a fad that will fade over time. Probably never go away, but will be much less popular

I twerk all the time. That way my family always knows what I'm doing. I sent out a twerk on the subway just yesterday. It helps me keep in touch with people.

THAT was you, my hospital called yesterday and said there's some strange person twerking on the subway and for me to stay home. My doctors were worried about me.

Can you post a you tube video of tweaking?

You send out short texts of 140 characters or less telling people what you're doing. You can put little hashtag codes in them so they'll appear in various topic feeds. Just tell your coworkers you want to start twerking with them and they'll tell you how to set up an account.

I feel old.
NO to all 4 questions for me.
I can't help but feel this was a similar reaction at the time with the twist (or, insert any other popular dance craze of the past) started. Hence, why I feel old.

No No No Yes (they've been doing it in strip clubs for at least 20 years ) Um . . . you haven't chaperoned any high school dances in the last 20 years, have you? It's been going on there too. And some "dancing" that (as Sheldon Cooper would say) "simulates coitus." Every generation finds ways to express itself. Anybody remember when the jerk, the monkey and go-go boots were scandalous? When disco on roller skates was scandalous? (or am I just dating myself? )
ETA: yes, yes, no, yes in some form or arena yet to be decided (after all the Hokey Pokey, the Chicken Dance, the Macarena, the Time Warp etc etc etc have never completely gone away . . . )

The way I see it - If the famous and what's considered the "in" gorgeous people who do it look like fools. I KNOW I will. And I'd probably hurt myself. But at least I know what it is unlike all the old and out dated people above. LOL! Ratchets - Please move! You ruined "the above" part for me and now it doesn't make any sense!

I can't even tell what you're talking about, because you say "above" and you're the first post on the page. Have you been drinking? LMAO!!

I remember how offensive our dancing was to older folks. I don't know what they will come up with next as twerking is as close to simulating the sex act as I can imagine. But, I'm sure they will find something.
