Sometimes or rather usually when I see people "bump and grind"on the dance floor(course on very rare occurences), I usually just laugh. My friends laugh too and make fun of it. Guess it just really depends on the mood of the music but I'd honestly never dance like that in public. It's just really awkward to look at in a public place moreso if there are multiple partners. I remember the first time me and a close friend spotted a couple bumping and grinding. It was quite traumatic.

It's definitely a cultural thing, I grew up learning how to move my hips and butt with no sexual connotations (as kids, its just dance), methinks it's safe to say there's less hangup with it with black or hispanic/latin America peeps than there'd be with other races/cultures on the whole. Ever tried merengue or the lambada? As an adult I know where my thoughts were leading to when there's a guys hand at the small of your back, you keep your eyes on each other, your bodies are pressed close and you both swing your hips in sync, it's intense~~ Even though it does require focus on steps so you're in sync with your partner and don't bash into them, it's still can act as foreplay between a couple that clicks on well, or just be a bunch of fun for kids who try it within their own cultures. Dance is a free form of expression to any kind music, albiet a good sense of rythmn and steps takes it to a higher level, but it's not always dependant on one's feet only. Although given the stories I'm hearing, makes me wonder what goes on in American high schools recently and what you kids try to attempt to do *amused*.

There's a difference between bump and grind...and violently dry thrusting.
One is/can be sexy, the other one is just weird. Besides, there is no better way to flaunt coupleness than to engage in some slow bumping and grinding lol. |

To be honest I don't care what other people do; I don't go to clubs, so it's not like I'll ever see people furiously rubbing their genitals against each other.
Personally, though, I don't really enjoy dancing as much as some people do--mostly because I only know two dances and I'm not very good at them. However, there's just something... very epic and very romantic about classical ballroom dancing, with the lovely gowns, the slow, string-heavy music, the click of your heels against the stone floor... It'd be pretty hard to dance "nasty" in a floofy dress and petticoats.

You should still be straightforward about whatever it is you believe you should be straightforward about. I'm guessing you're talking about your relationship history, or lack there of. I told my girlfriend that she would be my first if we got together, and she didn't believe me at first, but it was the truth. That didn't stop her from falling in love with me. It's not something you should have to tell the world, but if a girl asks you shouldn't have to lie about it. Just tell the truth. If that is a dealbreaker for someone, that's ridiculous. Even at your age. If I was interested in a girl at the age of 28 and she had never been in a serious relationship before, that wouldn't stop me from wanting to try and date her if I was really into her.
