On Saturday, my little sister had a dance competition. It was cool, but I'm always shocked by the ages of the kids they have performing. They have three-year-old kids in these super-skimpy outfits, dancing all provocatively. It just seems pointless to me. Like, there are other ways to dance, and it's not like these little girls are sexy. They are adorable, but not sexy. I walked backstage to look for my sister, and there was a group of maybe 6- or 7-year-old girls practicing their dance. First, their costumes sort of looked like lingerie. Also, as they're dancing, their teacher starts calling out instructions. The one she said most often? "Use your chests girls!" I was like, they don't HAVE chests, they're 7. It was just weird to me.
On the bright side, there was one other school that was like my little sister's, where there are a bit more modest and the dances are a lot less sexual. Also, my little sister's dance school won a gold medal for every dance they did. And usually they get totally overlooked at these competitions, so that was a very pleasant surprise.
