Dear Prince Kayammar,
First, I want to say that your English is much better than most of our Greek.
Please correct me if I misunderstand you, but I get the feeling that you are saying this is a marketing scheme???
And.... I must say that I have many times been in a room full of female belly dancers who scream their heads off and clap their hands off for a male dancer who is no better than average, and not nearly as good as many women on stage who get a smaller applause. What I see is that very often when males take the stage, dancers will not respond according to what is good or bad, but respond instead to the gender of the dancer. This is just one reason why I am against all male review type shows.
Regards,
A'isha
