Warning-heated debate: Have costumes become too risque?

Just out of curiosity, I wanted to see other's opinion about costuming. What do you think about all of these cut-outs, chiffon and see-through skirts, and other "trends" in belly dancing?


I'll start: My opinion is that it can be done nicely, but I feel at the same time, some costumes are just screaming, well, that belly dancing is something else. I think that we need some modesty in dancing to stay away from derogatory and unwanted terms that we all work ever so hard to stop. But I feel that altough we are screaming "we're not like that!" some of our costumes are screaming "look at my cut outs on my a**" or "look at my boobs that are overflowing"

Insert your opinions here...feel free to agree to disagree!
