It looks like that'd hurt the knees, or is that just me?

Nice video quality for 1920's and some rebellious outfits

And being white.

You can tell it's not actually in the 20s because no one has an onion on their belt, which was the style at the time.

Not to mention tattoos

4 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 1

When do you think tattooing started catching on? Because it was before the 20s. In Chicago it was yet another Syndicate operation.

This woman has preformed in blackface, does not respect the cultural origins of the dance, and is a racist. Her name is Ksenia.

Misogyny and abuse are rampant in the swing dance scene, particularly from international teachers to students

come on, wearing hairs in a way one like can't be considered racist... what a bullshit

This clip resurfaces every so often but people don't seem to know her history. The emcee on stage was also accused of rape a few years ago.

It's a contest recreating the 1920's, I'd say she's just an over achiever.

4 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 1

I believe there has been talk about blackface and people of other countries. Here in the US it has a pretty terrible history of how..

4 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It was used, but that doesn't necessarily apply to other countries with different cultural norms and practices.

This dancing looks fucking obnoxious

It's just not an attractive dancing style.

If you've seen one solo Charleston comp, you've seen them all. They are identical to this.

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I guess everyone interprets art differently. I think breakdancing, The Robot, and twerking are all fucking obnoxious but millions love them.

4 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

Look at this guy who hasn't seen the right kind of twerking yet.

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

I always thought of the robot as more of a fun dance rather than artistic

I knew a guy who was REALLY into all this shit but the '30s, had a house, furniture, car, clothes all from the period. He was insufferable.

Did he cause a Great Depression?

I knew people like that. They only dated people who were dedicated to 1920-30's. Some didn't understand why they couldn't find a dates.

Now they all dress like ranchers (some do the accents/mannerism)... they're all in the software industry and are from San Francisco area.

Many things - he had all the charisma of a dead fish, he would always try to turn every conversation to somehow be about his 1930s shit, (1)

4 years ago | Likes 23 Dislikes 0

he was INCREDIBLY anal retentive about it all too, but worst of all he was just a generally unpleasant person - he kind of sucked all (2)

4 years ago | Likes 19 Dislikes 0

energy and fun out of any situation he was in, like some sort of happiness black hole. And he was a real skinflint too! (fin)
