Some ladies covering up prostitution with dancing — Kaffy

Popular dancer and choreographer, Kafayat Shafau, aka Kaffy, has said that some ladies now use dancing as a cover for prostitution.

Speaking in an interview with Saturday Beats, Kaffy said, “Dance is not a hustler’s game, because a lot of girls are disguising prostitution by using dance. They would rather sell the sex side than the skill side. My only consolation is that the industry is growing so big that there is room for those kinds of people. Dance is an art form but sometimes, we cross the line, because of the sensual expression. I also do it, but there is a line I cannot cross, and clothes I cannot wear. One doesn’t need to be naked to be sexy or sensual, unlike what some people think.

“My advice to potential dancers is that they should choose their path, and be true to it. Don’t let pressure push you to a path you never originally wanted. You don’t have to alter your body, and there is more to dance than music videos and clubs. You can be a dance executive, coach, science, dance injury prevention, therapist, and many other things.”

Kaffy also disagreed with the popular notion that women don’t support women as much as men support their ilk. She said, “Women not supporting women is not the situation. Men go to war to fight against their fellow men. Forget ‘bro code’, it is perception and what is popularised that makes it look like men support men more. I think men also tear men down; it is a human thing. Women are just more emotionally expressive, so you can detect when a woman doesn’t like another woman faster than a man who doesn’t like another man. A man could be smiling with his friend until the last minute and stab him in the back. But, once a woman walks into such situation, her energy changes towards the person, and it’s easy to know that something is wrong. Both genders have the capacity to not support one another.”
