Belly dancers are beautiful and exotic with some degree of extremity to their costumes. An Egyptian belly dancer will elaborately deck out in the baladi as well as layers of dangling jewelry. It is often umed that the exaggerated beads and palates along with the jewelry is for seduction, in particular the seduction of men, but actually these customs originate in the middle east among women to help one another with the birthing process, both as a supportive ritual and as a conditioning exercise, not as a troop of Egyptian bellydancing lesbians or as a harem of adulteress ladies. dvdfitness.net http://www.dvdfitness.net
