Twerking

twerkingSimilar to the Harlem Shake but more pervasive is twerking. While I understand why so many gay themed blogs regularly post these animated GIFs, I have to admit I’m over it and looking forward to when people talk about twerking in the past tense.  Much like the Macarena and other pseudo-dance phases, this can’t end fast enough for me.

I’m sure there are a number of you who will disagree.  For those of you who can’t get enough of this sort of thing, check out Queerty’s post of  favorite Twerking GIFs here.

  1. I’l admit. I’m a TWERKER. There is an actual culture behind it, started with Bounce Music in NOLA & Baltimore Club Music and then it has roots elsewhere. I just hate that it’s entwined in everything. It’s worse than the word Ratchet

  5. Only the name is new. Women have been doing this move in rap video’s since the 80’s. Remember (how could you forget?) Sir Mix a Lot’s Baby Got Back! which was frim 1992 – OVER 20 years ago! Damn I feel old.
