I’m Crap At Pole Dancing

I was just perusing Amber Rhea’s blog and, amidst the many interesting musings on feminism and blogging, I discovered that she has graduated from her pole dancing school with a purple garter. I tried pole dancing, once, over two years ago. And I was absolutely crap at it. Jane and I from For The Girls attended a class for a feature we were doing. I did the dancing, Jane took Read More …
