That sucks. People tend to be much meaner online. Probably because they feel safe sitting in their own home and seem to think that makes it acceptable to say whatever they would like. If it’s any consolation, I’m sure this girl would be too timid to say a thing to your face. If anything, she’s just being negative due to her own insecurities.
Oh, and I looked up ‘floss’ out of curiosity. Apparently it means ‘to show off’. Who wouldn’t want to show off newly learned knee hold!? Come on!

I am surprised that he didn’t use the pic of the Japanese winner that surely would have been submitted alongside this press release from the IPDF.
It’s because your legs made such a great platform for his comment! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Wow – that is random! You should send him a message or something.
And I have to say that after reading all the comments those people wrote, I hope we get into the freaking Olympics in the future just so they can eat all their nice words they had to say.

Hi Ashley. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
First of all – congrats on getting your pole!
As to the pain issue, it’s something that pretty much everyone goes through, especially on the pole sit. Even though it feels impossible to deal with right now, it does get better. It takes some time for your body to get used to having it’s skin stretched and pulled on by the friction of being on the pole, but eventually it will start to toughen up and make it easier on you. I remember learning the pole sit and feeling like giving up, because it just hurt too much to bother with, and now I don’t really think about it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I hope it starts feeling better soon.

I’m not sure how much the top of an X-pole comes in contact with the ceiling, being as I have a ‘homemade’ pole, but we have stucco ceilings in our home and we were told that if you put a cloth between the ceiling and the part of the pole coming in contact with the stucco it should minimize the potential for any damage.
Again, I don’t know if this is possible with an X-pole or not. But if it is maybe it will help pursue your husband into letting you put it up. And if that doesn’t work, you can always be a bad girl and sneak it up when he’s not home? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I don’t have breast implants myself, but when I was taking pole classes my teacher decided to get hers done. She was told it would take about a month to get back into her dancing, and to start out slow, but she ended up having to wait about three months. By the sound of what she told us the implants made it really tight feeling to lift her arms up over her head, therefore she couldn’t lift her own body weight. She was also told that if you start exercising too soon you could end up with lumpy implants, but I’m not sure if that’s true or not. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

With most people, it doesn’t bother me. I just correct them and say ‘it’s my dance pole’, and they go ‘oh. that’s cool’. However, my boyfriend’s brother really enjoys making me angry by repeatedly calling it a stripper pole, saying that I’m a stripper, and just other nasty things that I won’t really get into. I think the reason it makes me so angry isn’t so much that he likes to make fun of it, but the fact that he will ONLY make fun of it. He’s never once had a nice thing to say about it and I find it really rude.
(Nothing against strippers, of course. I just don’t appreciate being made into a joke.)
