yeah there's a few out there....I mean I dont really care, but.... girls might get a lil scoffed at for doing that...and I'm not sexist by any means...dont get me wrong, but shouldnt a mans dance be a mens dance? thats what I was always taught..I remember a long time ago there was this woman who was dancing grass and some elder went on the mic one night and just ripped her a new arshole about it..and she never danced it again...again I really dont mind it but some of the older cats might give em a earfull...its all in good nature for the girls doing it, but traditionalists will be quick to scoff at it.
you dont see men doing that on a regular basis unless its a cross-dressing special...if they did (men) they would be called a "winkta" and be laughed out of the powwow. |

Kevin, There is a good thread about women's fancy dancers in the archives of Powwows.com. There used to be almost 100 women who wore feathers between 1940 and 1985. Once the fancy shawl came into existence, women dancing in feathers full time, died out.
