Rumors.

Last night I went to the gay bar and club, Rumors, on Division, in order to work on my anthropology project. It was an amazing experience. What delighted me the most about it, and indeed, what delights me the most about all clubs, is the homogeneous quality of the dance floor. It does not matter your age, race, family background, career, sexuality, gender, outlook on life, or political views. All that matters is that you are a person, surrounded by other people, a massive blob of constant movement.

The will to dance brings everyone together. The driving need to express yourself and let go of emotional and mental barriers, allows you to live and breathe the moment. We all can leave behind our hangups and just let go. Dancing is a beautiful and perfect release for those who are willing to throw insecurities aside. You are free to do whatever you want, be whatever you want, uninhibited. It is a beautiful and perfect thing, living in the moment. I love the sense of unity, the sense that everyone has of being there, together, to share this piece of time. There's no need to feel self conscious. Nothing matters.
