However based on what you have said perhaps this is the wrong place for someone like me so in experanced and so able to offend when only wishing to learn. I'm sorry
Nobody is having a go at you, hun! As Fleur said, it was no one in particular, just a general feeling. And unfortunately this is popping up in the media too- with people trying to ban skinny models from the catwalk. Instead of discriminating any one size, whether that be small or large, why can't we just embrace ALL sizes?

The thing that bugs people is the mention of a performer being slim and being bad in the same sentence as if the two are linked. A good performer is a good performer regardless of size.

And that is what we are trying to assure you of- regardless of your size, you can perform burlesque.

Please don't take offence, and don't feel like you have offended others. We are all willing to help you, and answer any questions you have
