We discussed in the dressing room while getting ready to start our shift. She asked me, “Do you really think everything happens for a reason?” I said, “I do, but sometimes shit just happens.” She came at me again, “So if everything happens for a reason why are we going to go out there then again? This is really just bullshit and pretending to like someone I don’t care about.” As I slipped on my new 8 inch boots and tightened them almost a little too tight, feeling the sharp pain of my pinky toe squeezed against my fourth toe, I explained to her, “I think every woman dances for a different reason. Of course, we are all here to make a buck, make a living, improve our lives financially, but there can be even meaning and purpose in this. But every woman has to find her own way through this maze of seduction, humiliation, admiration, torture, and sometimes even fun.” She looked me dead straight in the eye and asked almost with a mean undertone, “So Misses Jones, what’s your purpose when you go out there and shake your tiny ass and giant boobs?” I replied confidently, “It is always the same thing for me no matter what I do. Whether I acted on stage, in a movie, sang in a church, write, teach yoga, or help someone train a dog, or shake my ass on stage: my mission is to make people feel! It’s the only way to trigger a positive change in this world.”
