How the LGBTQ community created voguing

  • Vogue, the dance, not the magazine.
    Voguing is fairly new, created in the 80s, compared to the New York City drag ballroom scene which goes back to at least the 1920s. The dance's name is borrowed from Vogue magazine. The movements that define voguging are also styled after the model poses in Vogue. Willi Ninja, considered the godfather of vogue, also drew inspirations from some unlikely sources such as mimes and martial arts. Voguing also happens at Kiki balls-like a junior legeauge before the main competitions of the ballroom scene. In the LGBTQ community voguing is more than just a popular dance fad co-opted into mainstream. Surrogate families called houses are also a major part of the ballroom scene.

    To the people getting mad that no credit was due to the poc....were we watching the same video? They mention Willi Ninja an important part of creating the dance and mentioning that the houses are primarily Latino and Black...this video mostly interviewed and showcased people of color I'm not understanding where one would be offended.

      Exactly! I’m so confused, didn’t we all watch the same video? I barely saw any white people in this video - all the dancing was done by poc. I can just use context clues and figure out that this dance style was made or popularized by poc.

Let me tell y'all, especially the people who don't understand the scene. It do take NERVE. It's no joke. The categories are strict, and if you are not the best, you will be cut. Vogueing, along with all the other categories, are an art form. It takes discipline, practice, and a whole lot of nerve. MUCH respect to all Voguers, and Happy Pride month to all the LGBT folks in the comments.

      I like how you just assume people are triggered by the fact it's LGBT. I happen to think Vogueing as a whole is worthless and anyone who tries to tell me otherwise is dumb. I don't care if it came from some positive aspect of a subset culture, it's a shitty dance that requires very little talent. It's like the people who dance at electronica music shows.
      You should feel bad for your shitty taste in things and stop turning this into a social issue, or accusing people who don't support vogueing as somehow against the LGBT community. Time to grow up Quincy.

      ShredPenguins I won’t make this political, but vogueing is literally the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I’ve been a ballerina for over a decade and doing various other styles of dance during that time. I had a friend invite me to take a vogueing class and I thought it would be easy because it’s just jumping around right? Wow was I wrong! There are so many elements such as the cat walk, arm and hand movements, the duck walk (which requires insane leg strength), floor work and so much more. Not only does it require physical strength it thrives on creativity. If you think that this is worthless, you lack the intelligence and creativity to see that this is an important art of self expression.

Just because people aren't sure what it is doesn't mean they're homophobic.
      I saw the video in my subscriptions page and thought "What is voguing?" and I clicked on the video to find out. Simple. No hatred. No homophobia, just curiosity.

    My house competed in the love ball and we were the grand prize winners of the love ball.
    Anyway I love this video, and I am glad to see houses still bringing it.

      I do reason it all out. And Vox provides enough evidence before it even dares to make a claim.The bottomline is, you won't get a media outlet which is as open as this is on everything. They're real people, and I feel like I personally know them. The fact I'm trying to establish is, amidst all of the paranoia about news outlets, I'd like to offer them my unconditional support.
      I have enough faith in them to know they won't make a claim without it being true.

    • @joshuajohn8870
      @joshuajohn8870 Před 7 lety +8

      I have the opposite view. The only way to keep new outlets like Vox unbiased is to be extremely critical of it. If everybody gave them the unconditional support like you did they will quickly regress into appealing to the emotions of audiences to get view instead of having well-reasoned videos. There's nothing wrong with supporting a media outlet, but giving "unconditional" support is one of the most dangerous things you can do.

    • @vineethchennabhoina3798
      @vineethchennabhoina3798 Před 7 lety +1

      Dude. Seriously. Read what I wrote. "And Vox provides enough evidence before it even dares to make a claim."
      When Vox starts making stuff up from thin air, I'll think about it, but it never did.
      What? Appealing to my emotions to get my view? I'm not opinionated. The collective audience over here has a million different views, how are you going to appease all of these views? It's easier to tell the truth, and that's exactly what they're doing, and will continue to do.
      So, it's out of question they'll turn rogue.
      I'm not deluded to think that Fox is the right source for my daily fix of news.

    • @melissayes3161
      @melissayes3161 Před 7 lety +1

      EvilTom, it's strange how you almost advocated for pedophilia in your second to last comment. Perhaps it may be from generalizing too much. I'm interested in what research you've done on the topics you've mentioned but I would rather you emailed me than continued in this section of the comments.
      Not that being less educated or exposed to something makes you less valid, but forming an educated point of reference can help to make real progress in a conversation as opposed to running in circles and making irrelevant comments, of which there are non here. I'm interested in understanding where you are coming from, in a non-personal sense.
      I suppose what I'm asking for is a definition of the term "Natural" and how it related to "Mother Nature".
      Which definitions do you abide by and should they be at all?
      I'm team Mother Nature Can Fight Me because she's literally a pain in my butt but I love her, nonetheless, and I love my friends.
      Does your definition include all things organic and that can be developed, or are you actively against that?
      Because sex changes aren't just a choice for people, in a similar way that sexuality isn't a choice.
      This discourse can also lead into questions surrounding identity, which is a fun but sometimes difficult place to traverse, even if one is prepared.

    Even though I'm a month late to this video, I just wanted to ask why it's so important to specify that people of color in the lgbt community are the ones who started voguing. It's just sad that people want to divide us even further apart by adding race into this. White people do not say anything about other people "appropriating" things that white people started. "oh you use facebook, YOU'RE APPROPRIATING WHITE PEOPLE" I just find it ridiculous that as an already divided community, some people want to take it a step further and complain that white people are being added to something.

    i know *VOX* videos are usually short, & that this video was more focused on the American side of *Voguing* ; however, it would've been nice to make this clip longer, & include a little bit of info about how *Voguing* has spread like wildfire to *Japan* , *Taiwan* , & other parts of *Asia* . some of the most famous Asian Vogue dancers were winning notable competitions when they were just pre-teens. a few names to look up: *Aya Sato* , *Bambi* , *Yumeki* , *Ibuki* , *Junko Sasaki* , *Chrissy Chou* (TW), *Polly* (TW), *Lip J* (KR).
    *_side note_*_ : all the dancers mentioned above mainly specialize in _*_Waacking_*_ , but they also teach & compete in _*_Voguing_*_ . both styles are very similar, w/ a few minor differences. they also both originated at the same time, & have the same LGBT background; w/ _*_Waacking_*_ being from the West Coast (LA), while _*_Voguing_*_ was from the East (NY)._

    wow I had no idea that the ballrooms and vogueing was still around. I watched paris is burning and the ballroom was the only place the kids had to lay their head at night. It hurt my heart to learn that Madonna and others took what they wanted but left the documentaries participants behind.
