58. Who can to perform the grass dance?
Answer:
Modern grass dancing does not have a formal entrance policy as such, and I had wager nearly every tribe on North American can claim at least one grass dancer amongst its ranks. Grass dancing is especially popular as a first style choice for children, and as such, is quite common as a male dancer first style. Like the fancy feather dance, there were many women who danced this style and its regalia in the 70s especially if they also hoop danced. There are also photos from the 1800s showing women in grass dance dresses, but little else is known about the style or its function. Today, the grass dance is referred to as a man’s style and is typically reserved for men. A notable exception to this is the switch dance, where men dance women's styles and women dance men styles.
