It is a depraved, servile expression on the level of an ally cat in heat inviting the attention of a hyper-male. It comes from the culture where that is actually vaunted as something young women should mimic.
Anyone who has raised daughters to have dignity and self-respect finds the imagery to be repulsive.
I have seen some vids of then ‘negroes’ doing some crazy spasmodic dances from the 20-30s. Some were highly skilled & managed to have deft footwork in there . Ithink it was thought to be primitive & cause it was with negroes not particularly sexual. .
The first twerking vids on YouTube all had black girls. I still get the idea that it is not sexual .
I suggested to a poster here to go do some twerking last year.Have not seen her so perhaps she has taken it up .
From the Urban Dictionary: Twerk-The rhythmic gyrating of the lower fleshy extremities in a lascivious manner with the intent to elicit sexual arousal or laughter in ones intended audience
Actually a more refined twerking in popular music was Shakira . There has always been some for of hip gyrating somewhere between hula hops & hula dancing..
I have seen performances by Pacific Islander chiefs with unmistakable war like gyrations. I knew exactly what hey meant.
But I don’t know about you but black girls twerking is not sexual because I don’t think of sex with black girls .( you did not pick that up!) . But white gals can’t twerk.
“Twerking” is an American adoption of a dance style I saw in Trinidad back in the late 80’s; however, in Trinidad it’s just another type of “wining”, aka, non-sexual sexual-looking gyration on the order of bump and grind. I was invited to a high school dance while there, and saw the students (friends, nothing sexual) doing it. It looked so grossly sexual and offensive, I touched the young girl doing it and suggested she should not.
Is it sexual? Not really. Does it look sexual? Most definitely.Can sexual things come from it? Indeed! I wouldn’t want my children to do it at all.
That’s a good cartoon. And to be even more accurate, Oblamer would actually be Putin it to him [cough] since that his preferred method. But that would make Reggie Love jealous.

You have the characters backwards.
Twerking is not anything like mooning someone.

Other than that…

With the exception of Billy Ray Cyrus.
IF those were high values Mr. Cyrus intended to teach his daughter, they were lost in her drive to celebrity.

It’s not sexual because the person doing it is caught up in the rhythm and the feel of her body as she does it. It’s got nothing to do with her race.
