Stripper poles are simply a mechanism to allow strippers to spread their legs in an ‘artistic’ fashion up off the ground so men in the cheap seats can get a glimpse. Pole dancing can be as beautiful and expressive as any other type of dancing, and takes an extraordinary amount of strength and skill.

There was a guy on America’s Got Talent who took juggling (the Dane Cook of circus arts) and turned it into an art form.
