Check this,I dont know why eveybody is making such a big deal out of this Breakdancer/B-boy thing if you ask me its pointless.I Breakdance/B-boy or what ever you want to call it,because I wanted to improve my martial arts,so does that make me a poser,hell no it doesnt,it makes me a martial artist who likes to physically challenge myself and dance,people just do what you do no matter what people try to say,if you enjoy it then thats all that matters,but the overall lesson here is no matter what you want to call it B-boying,Breakdancing,Gymnastics,Martial arts,Popping and Locking,or Uprocking just enjoy yorself and have fun,we as a society have to do away with these pointless labels,besides isnt B-boying about self expression so shouldnt that go with the title as well?,keep breakin,peace out

the proper term -

still lost on how breakdancing isnt the proper term. I know its just semantics, but its interesting to see where these ideas all came from and what actually is and isnt true. Its hardly a misconception that people enjoy rewriting history and eventually there are enough people that believe the story to change it. If anything, that alone makes it a topic of interest. I mean, who gives a shit what people call it, whatever it is, its still pretty damned cool looking lol. At the same time, a very interesting subject.

its just a word that's overused by evil people who discuss the topic in classified documents. which is the reason why the internet was invented in the first place.

Go to bboytube and search K-Mel, he explains the "difference" between breakdancing and bboying.

Its just a term.
And kmel talks bullshit, trying to sound interesting. Check his expression, when people are trying to be cool they always look like that. |

almost every non-breakers (or non-bboys) call it breakdance, so it's just what ppl call it. many of us too
if the whole world call u 'stupid' then ur name's definitely 'stupid', be it or not. it's likely no way to change it if it's acknowledged throughout the whole world |
