It originally started as a way to prepare the abdominals for the pains of labor, but evolved into an art form. Belly dancing did not begin as a dance of seduction, but was just a part of Middle Eastern culture. In Muslim society, men and women were often separated, and women would often dance in the company of friends to entertain them, not to seduce men. |
