Confessions of a Dancefloor Whore

I've been told my life would make a good trashy novel. I just try to live honestly and fully, and if that makes me trashy then I'll jump in the dumpster. Here it is: the life, love, and confessions of a queer dancer.

You Need To Know This Pole Dancer’s Self-Confidence Secrets

In her own words, pole dancer and fitness trainer Roz “The Diva” Mays is where she is today by way of a miracle. “If you’d have told me during that first pole-dancing class…” (which, she adds, kicked her ass completely) “…[that] I would eventually be leading classes of my own all around the country, and would have ended up on TV four times doing this, I would have slapped the shit out of you,” she laughs.

My biggest fear isn’t that you’ll lie to me one day or that you’ll cheat on me. My biggest fear is that you’ll wake up before me one Tuesday morning and instead of leaning in and kissing me on the cheek, you’ll look at my sleeping body and start to notice all of my flaws. My crooked nose, my chapped lips and the stretch marks spread along my stomach and thighs like a road map. You’ll think about my random spouts of jealousy and the fact that I talk too much. You’ll remember how annoying it is that no matter what, I’m always right and just how selfish I can be sometimes. You’ll walk into the kitchen, brew a cup of black coffee, stare at the pale morning rays of sunlight entering the window frame, and come to the conclusion, that for no particular reason at all, you don’t love me anymore.

Like seriously, why isn’t pole dancing an olympic sport? This is freakin gymnastics. This is strength and skill. This is not sexual whatsoever. Why does pole dancing have to be so stigmatised as a sexual thing that only strippers do? I have great respect for all people who can pull this off. This is art and beauty right here. 

[naturalmomma-deactivated2015092]

HEY FUN FACT: pole dancing is known as something strippers do because strippers invented it. And that’s okay! It’s okay to have respect for strippers and the hard work they put into what they do! Let’s stop trying to take the stripper part out of pole dancing so upperclass white girls can do it without being ~stigmatized~ because god forbid women be sexual.

Seriously, ballet was originally invented by prostitutes, and now look, it’s a fine art with no sexual stigma. Respect art in whatever form it comes.

Today, I am broken. My fiancee is broken. But. We are broken together. We take care of each other the best way we can. It may not be perfect, we may not feed ourselves properly or keep our house as neat and clean as we should. We dont budget on time or stay on budget ever and sometimes we forget a bill. We aviod planning our wedding because it involves money and timelines and we are bad at both. But. We have both considered it, separately and together and we are doing it. We are getting married in August because no matter what scary shit happened in our past or happens in our present, we have each other. And that is true love.

This is how all rape trials should go. Especially those of people who work in the sex industry because, unfortunately, some people take their profession as consent.

I don’t think people realize how much strength it takes to pull your own self out of an anxiety attack or a panic attack. So if you’ve done that today or any day, I’m proud of you.

I just wanna say. It’s been a while since I posted here. I’ve been in a stable relationship for a little over 10 months now. I have been living with them for 8 months (uhaul, I know). I have been engaged for 2 months. I’m looking forward to getting married in a little less than 6 months. Life isn’t perfect, but I have found my happily ever after. ♡

I have ruined relationships for fear of ruining those relationships.

Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand.
