Expressing an opinion on his costuming choice is one thing; making him out to be a pervert is quite another. His on-stage costuming is always quite tasteful, unless his going shirtless makes you run for the hills in fear and disgust. Yes, I do stand up for my friends, and I am not friends with perverts or "wild cards". You should meet him; he is quite nice. As I'm sure you are. Just perhaps a bit too freaked out by a pair of legs (and I know that he is wearing underwear).

Sorry, but that was my reaction to how he presents himself in those two clips. Someone like me who will never see him or meet him in person has no other way of forming an opinion. I believe you when you say he is a great guy and a tasteful performer. That is your experience of him. But that's not MY experience of him. Based on those clips, I still think he is a rather extreme person. It is also giving a rather trashy image of belly dancing.
