hi! please don't call it 'belly dancing', it's a term with an origin to racism and orientalism. it's called raqs sharqi! wanting to put a character in such an outfit for sexual reasons is also very inappropriate. /gen /nm
Oh! thank you for letting me know i had no idea and i appreciate you letting me know! I had read a fic with it and did not realize the implications, so apologies! Always feel free to let me know if I accidentally say something insensitive/do not know something could be bad as I’d rather know than not!
