1. Everyone has had a go
Miley, Nicki and Rihanna have all displayed their twerking skills in music videos and hundreds of females have tried their luck on vine. Surely there is no one left on this planet who hasn't had a cheeky twerk either on camera, in the club or in the comfort of their bedroom.
2. Every other rapper things it's cool to now release a terrible twerk song
Wale has Clappers, Busta has Twerk It and then there's Don't Drop That Thun Thun, all because of twerking.
Novelty twerk songs are getting old now, let's get back to other topics like strippers, drugs and how much money you have, please.
3. Other amazing dance moves are being overshadowed
What if you can't twerk but your azonto is amazing, your cat daddy is crazy and your dougie is on point ?
It's not fair that all these other brilliant, and often more impressive, dance moves are being pushed to the side to make way for something that is basically butt shaking.
4. It's becoming a novelty act
Twerking has actually been popular for years and people have been singing about it and doing it since the late 90's. But now that it has entered mainstream society it has lost it's essence and is now just seen a novelty 'cool' thing to do and not so much as a skilled dance movement which, it in fact, is.
5. All the feminist stuff about objectifying women etc.
Although I don't like to rant about feminist issues or promiscuity in music because it gets debated all the time and nothing will ever change (I don't really think I want it to either), but twerking is just encouraging men to look at women as sex objects.
Making your butt cheeks jiggle to the beat of music is undeniably fun and a great work out, however it does just make it harder to defend yourself when a guy grabs you inappropriately because you were shaking it in his face.
