The dancer is a regular, non-intersexed or transgendered woman. The mustache you see is painted on; they're playing with gender concepts in this piece. The most upsetting part of your comment to me is that her breasts are 'bizarre'. They are totally normal, they just look weird to you b/c society only ever shows you perfectly round D cup breasts. The vast majority of women have breasts that bear no resemblance to that imaginary norm.

[Karl Watson]

Have you considered that this could be intentional. Watching other works, even recent ones such as Amelia, of La La La Human Steps, it is clear that Lock tries to challenge some of the traditional movement qualities found in dance as it pertains to gender. Though you are entitled to your own opinion in response to a work of art, you should also recognize the possibility of the intention of, for example, masculinity, and the statement it is being used to make.

The sound is garbed, Pitty.

[Christy Sanford]

I don't understand why the sound is garbled. I've watched this on a number of occasions. But then, since being unwittingly shifted to "chrome" many weird-ups have occurred. It survives even without sound. Louise with those side rolls establishes her own vocabulary. Thanks for posting.

[LatreilleMme]

yes

Un grand moment de la danse montréalaise des années 80. On s'étonne encore de la radicalité de cette déféminisation, acceptée, brandie, violente. J'écoutais récemment Louise Lecavalier en interview - la douceur même. L'art est vraiment une métamorphose.

Like you'd have any idea what constitutes a 'normal chest' on an adult female not involved in the porn industry ........... ROFLOL

Jesus you kids make me laugh ........... until i remember you'll be in charge of the planet in a few years and my own kids will be living under your rules.

[Blowfeld20k]

No offence but in the very attempt to render a rational intelligent response to the kind of walnut brained, rock-like ignorance shown by the Sambucca's of this world. You do run the risk of partially legitimising the the idea that mindless ignorance and stereotypical sexism, actually deserve a rational response. Now am sure you wouldn't want to endorse that.

Obviously your a human blessed with intelligence and perception ... unfortunately not everyone is as gifted as you

[Blowfeld20k]

WTF don't wanna come over as some pretensions, artsie, Eurofag, salon, prig ....(especially since an a working class dood from the north of England)... but fuck me bro ......... if you need to ask a question like that when you see Steps work your kinda wasting your time looking in the 1st place.

Does that shit look like square dancing or trad Ballet to you ?!?!?!?

At least your one of the curious ones, you ask a question rather than just talked about Louise's breasts.
