		<description>Chase-  (hello)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Culturally they are different categories, and women&#039;s voices is a 4,000+ year old issue, but I still make a strong case for men feeling free in their bodies in ways that aren&#039;t some stereotyped caricature version of strength, aggression or violence.  Most boys are pressured from an early age not to use there bodies expressively, that it&#039;s effeminate to dance, use hips, or be physically expressive at all.  I think it&#039;s really important that boys grow up free to be confident and creative in how they can express themselves physically- that it is inviting, beautiful and strong when grown men and little boys feel free to dance.  It&#039;s tragic when boys are taught not to &quot;dance like girls&quot; since girls are not the only ones who want to dance.  There&#039;s a lot of shaming there, and it&#039;s a load of crap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To dance is a great quest indeed.</description>

		<description>huh. women&#039;s voices and men&#039;s dances. Is that really similar in shame experiences? &lt;br /&gt;That is helpful and gives my quest to dance more meaning. Thank you.</description>
