Please forgive me…I’m over 30 and was never a clubber.
In a number of songs, women “get low”. In “Low”:
Shawty got low low low low low low low low
In “Belly Dancer”, they drop down and touch the ground;
Hey, ladies drop it down, just want to see you touch the ground
…
You ain’t even gotta drop down if you want to
What activity is being described here? What are these women doing?
I think it just means to literally lower your hips while dancing. Ie dance such that it shows off your ass, in a position suggestive of intercourse.
New 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.
You realize that lordosis is a neurological reflex, not a sexual position, right? The position lordosis causes in animals may resemble similar positions in humans, but they are not the same thing.
Yes this is partially true but when you get low you usually also spread your legs, which has the secondary effect of flashing whatever you happen to be wearing (or otherwise). It’s very difficult to dance and get low keeping the knees together.
So my point is, that there is more than just lordosis
I mean it very loosely approximates lordosis as defined in the article you linked. But it isn’t in fact lordosis, which makes the resulting reply chain pretty awful.
i think a little ol school technotronic makes it slightly more obvious;
Get your booty on the floor, tonight
Make my day
That one I always assumed meant to just get your ass out on the dance floor. Not any specific form of dancing
ahh, yep, i see that now
Pop a squat, stick your ass out, and shake it
I believe they are referring to what is colloquially known as "dat ass". Also known as "twerking".
squatting type dances
Get down and boogie.
I used to ask what “Drop it Like Its Hot” meant, but then I thought about it.

@rice purity test The phrases “get low” and “drop it down” in the context of the lyrics you mentioned typically refer to a dance move where individuals, in this case, women, lower their bodies, often bending at the hips and knees, to bring themselves closer to the ground. It’s a common dance move seen in various club and hip-hop dance scenes.
I believe it simply means literally lowering your hips while dancing. I dance in a position that suggests intercourse, where your ass shows off. retro bowl
