I'm really not sure in today's environment whether this is acceptable, like I thought at the time, or whether it might be considered by some to be racially insensitive.
Two nights ago with my 18 year old stripper, she says (with high school girl like enthusiasm), that she wants to go on stage and show me how she is learning to twerk. I told her that there was nothing that I wanted more at that moment than to see her nude tweaking. Not literally true, but close enough. She runs up on stage like a school girl rushing to catch the morning school bus.
For those of you who adore big thick black girls shaking their asses in black dives, you would have broken out laughing. In that sense of twerking, this was incredibly pathetic. Her ass cheeks move in tandem. When they move at all. Most of her ass movement is so subtle as to barely be capable of perception. And I can't see her tiny little pussy at all. She may have fallen asleep at one point.
At the end of the song she turns her head to ask what I think, a smile of anticipation in her beautiful eyes and in her braces covered mouth, as she obviously expects me to be enraptured.
"Awesome." I commend her. "The best white girl twerk I've ever seen." This was close to the truth. It was the second best. What can I say? I like tiny young cute white girl asses that barely move.
Then I called her over to me. I told her that I bet one of these black girls could teach her to shake each ass cheek separately. I call a thick black girl over who is on stage nearby. I ask "would you twerk for me." She seems happy to. Then I tell my high school girl to twerk next to her. It was an amazing contrast. Tiny barely moving little white ass next to big thick black ass cheeks that seemed to be alive and move the stage when they shook.
I complimented the tweeter ( at least I intended it as a compliment) and said that blacks girls really know how to twerk. I tipped her roughly ten ones. She walked off and I tipped my girl too, again expressing my worship of her amazingly young body.
I have done things like this many times, in the sense of commenting upon the vast differences between how white and black girls twerk. I'm like em both, and I'm complimentary of both except that I sometimes jokingly refer to how my white girl's just can't shake it like their black sisters. I always tip all of the girls for displaying their twerking talents for me.
Something I heard on the news this morning led me to the thought that maybe saying things like this might be perceived as racially insensitive. Is it ever ok to suggest that one race is better than another at some activity?
I don't think this is in any way offensive or I wouldn't say it. But if I'm wrong then I'll stop. No telling what the little head would do, but I'd try to stop hm too.
Is it acceptable to respectfully comment upon the unique ability of black dancers to shake their asses, and to also jokingly but nicely comment upon how white girls seem incapable of even approaching black girls' aptitude not matter how much they practice?
They're strippers. You gave them money. That negates any feelings of "offense" either of them might have otherwise taken.
