Comment on What does it mean to "get low" or "drop it down"?
Izzgo@kbin.social 1 year agoNew word to me, thank you. And apparently, in animals which display that behavior, it is reflexive, not a voluntary action. But a point of interest from your article:
Lordosis behavior is non-functional in humans, although lordosis-like positions can be observed in those being mounted from behind.
So therefore, while twerking mimics lordosis, it's really just dancing, albeit rather sexually.

We’re not talking about twerking. You are correct in twerking is a dance that does in fact present the person sexually. That is it’s appeal.
It is the bending over and sticking out your ass that is lordosis.

No. That is not lordosis. That is a simulation of lordosis. You are confusing a metaphor for the literal thing.
