Dances now are way worse than they were 50 years ago.
Yes.
I just wish it was easy to bring back decency.

The de Medici Family was super-elite.  Highly suspect of being into witchcraft.  Used their power/$ to get family members elected as Cardinals and even the pope.  They are responsible for the "renaissance statues" all around the Vatican, many of which were taken down years later for their homo-erotic/risque poses (some still remain).  Not good people.
Hard to find too many elite families without some element of corruption. That doesn’t mean every art form the family endorses is immoral!

I don’t think her family actually invented ballet, likely the people who did remain in obscurity, rather they promoted it in Italy and facilitated it becoming popular in France. I’m no expert on this particular topic, perhaps you are? 😊😉

You made an excellent analogy about alcohol, which is fine in moderation but drunkenness and resulting behaviours are not…same with dance… most is beautiful art form but can be used in wrong ways. Erotica, pole dancing, the gyrations that pass for dancing in many nightclubs are just cover for prostitution and hook up culture. That doesn’t mean all dance is immoral especially the wonderful classical ballet!! Nothing wrong with dancing with the opposite sex either… it’s the way people have traditionally met future spouse! My parents met at a dance 😊🤣

:facepalm:  It's obvious you know nothing about the Medici family.  But yet you still blindly defend them.  :facepalm:

That is a costume issue.  If the costumes were modest would the dance be a problem?

Would this performance be a problem?  It also has ballet moves.

Wrong. The spread of the legs is also immoral. I will be called extreme for this but frankly I think a women should never sit astride, in the past lady's would sit on horses or donkeys on side saddle. It's unbecoming, undignified and unlady like for a female to sit astride.
