Erotic Photos 10 years, 10 months ago Sorry, I posted prematurely without captions… These were just a few pics that I like which show the beauty of the female form as only dancers seem to be able to capture! Enjoy!
These really strike me more for their artistry than for their eroticism. I want to watch and be moved, I want to sketch, I feel a deep appreciation for their achievement on many levels, it is inspiring and beautiful… But I have a really hard time imagining myself with any one of them… Hmmm, interesting.
As you say: artistic and athletic but not necessary cute. Our bodies need a bit of plump to shape up our femininity. Otherwise, I wish I’d had that flexibility… 🙂
I think there are two things going on for me here. One as you’ve mentioned Doris some of the physical sexual triggers like curves are not there, but I have fallen for dancers before, and I have a healthy appreciation of androgyny in women (as well as many other ‘plumper’ types to be sure!)
So for me, I have to look again, and I think the bigger blocker for me is that I was intimidated by their extreme physicality and this athletic brand of perfection… and feeling intimidated disconnects me from being able to relate sexually. Insecurity is such a beast! Always finding a way to crop back up somewhere to try to steal our fun, arrrgh… and even when we KNOW it makes no sense.
It is not just your insecurity, it is theirs that is the greater beast. Can you imagine your employment contract with a body fat clause?
But I certainly admire their physical beauty and abilities!
True and certainly no one is immune, and at the same time it makes no sense at the highest levels. The greatest inspirations are often found in the brilliance and accomplishment of others. I would feel at a complete loss if I was the smartest person I knew or if I didn’t see women every day a hundred times more gorgeous and stylish than myself. I love being a witness to art and mastery, passion and beauty. We all have our own gift to give and so much about life is finding a way to give that fully and supporting others to do hue same. I feel insecurity comes from a place fear not inspiration, it is not the way I want to relate to the world, it is often even irrational, and yet… there it is. I suppose it is probably part of our survival instinct and thus something requisite and to some degree inescapable… but man I what a world if we could!
Yes! Security, coupled with humility.
And in the spaces we can and do create it, it is a damn beautiful, exhalting thing… If everyone had it, we’d heal the world… the only thing that stops us is ourselves.
And btw how did James get away with posting ‘prematurely’ and none of us harassed him even a little about that? We’re slipping!
