ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Erotic dance

Okay, so sometimes people like to dance in a special way when they feel really, really happy and excited. This is called an erotic dance. It's like when you dance around your room to your favorite song, but some grown-ups like to do it in front of other grown-ups to make them feel happy, too.

An erotic dance is different from regular dancing because it's usually more grown-up and sometimes includes movements that make people feel a little bit... tingly. The person dancing will usually wear clothes that show more skin and move their body in a way that makes them feel confident and sexy.

But it's important to remember that an erotic dance should always be between consenting adults. Just because someone is dancing in this way doesn't mean they want anything more than just to make someone feel happy and entertained. And if someone doesn't feel comfortable watching it or participating in it, it's okay to say no thank you and move on to something else.
