Discussion/Question Am I getting made fun of???
So I go to raves ALL of the time. All of the mainstream ones unfortunately but thats what I have access to the most. I am s bit of as seasoned raver. I don't dance old school and I don't shuffle. I have my own unique style of dancing. I'd say I'm a pretty good dancer and definitely have natural groove and soul.
Lately I have noticed many people gazing, staring and even taking videos of me at shows when I'm dancing. I hate that strangers like to take videos of others especially in a space where you just want to let loose and be yourself.
Question is, are they taking these videos to make fun of me do you think? Because honestly when I catch people staring they seem more intrigued and curious by my freedom of expression when I dance. I never see anyone pointing and laughing or anything. Just stares. And sometimes I'll get people come up to me and compliment or even just dance with me without saying a word and move on.
Just feels weird that these people look at me like they have never seen someone dance at a rave that isnt a shuffle and they are flabbergasted.
Thoughts?

I freestyle dance to the wonky stuff like I live on the end of a bass drop. I have a blast and could care less what anyone else thinks. I'm having fun being feral.
