Question? Does Your Pole Body Provoke Others …
Let me explain today and maybe this is happening to you too, I don't know.
I put on my skinny jeans with a soft top with a thin sweater and had my spring coat that and wore my boots. I brought my dog park jacket with me b/c after I went to vote for the union to come in to where I work.
It's not like I was dressed up to the 9's either.
As I was leaving and talking to another nurse much younger and chubbier than me made a point of telling me that she was getting her hair done & I thought there is absolutely nothing wrong with her hair and so, I let her talk and then we parted ways.
I went to the dog park and one of the ladies I was talking/ walking with as I had my frumpy dog park jacket unzipped …she took focus on herself as she had lost wt…and was saying that she didn't want to have abdominal surgery for her lose skin. Again, I listened but I think converstion came about in both circumstances b/c perhaps I walk with good posture and confidence and when the winter attire comes off i.e. the dog park people see your shape and maybe are intimidated? I dunno.

I was doing a 2nd try on of my wedding dress and the woman was telling me to make sure I had my bra, shoes and Spanx ready for the alteration appointment after I ordered. I asked what "Spanx" were (I honestly had no clue) and she went off about how I'm a skinny girl, of course I wouldn't know about shapewear, she was stupid for even bringing it up, and she has to wear Spanx with everything, etc. She called out my body and tried to make me feel bad because I was smaller than her. This women had issues, my body triggered her rant, but I wasn't going to feel responsible. If it wasn't me, it was going to be the next "skinny" girl trying on a dress, can't take it personally.
I turned it around though. Turns out we own the same Jillian Micheal's DVDs, but she has asthma and kids and doesn't workout as often as I do. She seemed to be better after I explained how I had to work for it. Can only control how I handle it, I don't worry about they want to handle it.

Pole, Dance and anything else you do will improve your posture and the way you walk. You will have a different look and people won’t know why. I always say “pole does a body good” I’m not a skinny girl but because I strength train and cardio my body is in great shape. I have three kids and asthma and without my workouts I would be at the Dr. all the time and I wouldn’t have energy for my kids.

If its other topics about them, I take it as typical conversation. Not really paying attention to hidden messages, as I’m oblivious. In my area, we are really straight forward with bodies so if they like my body or are intimidated, they will say so. Like I’m sexy, brolic, shoulders, arms, skinny, etc. People who know I pole assume my definition is from pole but I tell them, its actually from vinyasa.
And lol @ spanx!!! I STILL wear spanx if its an uber skin tight dress like Herve Leger.
