Everything old is new again..
Adults freak over teens' dancing
Schools crack down on resurgent trend

Teen-agers bump and grind on the dance floor, rubbing their bodies together in undulating rhythm.
(Atlanta Journal Constitution)
Front-to-front. Front-to-back. Girls bend over while boys thrust their hips into the girls' backsides or faces. They straddle each other on the floor.
It's freak dancing the latest version of dirty dancing and it's wildly popular with teens.
Adults, however, aren't so enamored. Many describe it as simulated sex with clothes on. And more schools are cracking down.
It's girls and boys rubbing their parts all over each other. It's offensive to me, said Michael Hall, principal at Anderson High School. It's a huge problem at every school. Schools nationwide have dealt out detentions and suspensions or canceled dances for infractions.
The dance craze, which first appeared in the mid-1990s, has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity, thanks to MTV and music videos.
At Walnut Hills High School, freak dancing was so prevalent that during the 1998-99 school year, students and staff developed a guide for student behavior and dress at dances.
Now, if students attend a dance, they and their parents must sign a form stating the students will not engage in sexual misconduct on the dance floor. A student caught flouting the rules will be tossed out of the dance and assigned three hours a week of after-school detention for the rest of the year.

Excuse Me! Fuck the mid 90s... The Freak, immortalized in the song "Le Freak" by Chic was hot in the later half of the 70s. People were getting shot in clubs freaking another man's woman. Leave anything alone long enough, kids pick it back up and try to act like they found something new! Aye Carrumba!
