So, it was only in DWP that they used to show us dancers internationally who can do Afro dance well. You can do that with feminine energy, you have to be more confident in your kind of dance which is what pushes this style.&#8221; she said.  <\/p>\n<p>When asked why she prefers to dress in men&#8217;s outfits, Lisa Quama established that she does not feel comfortable with clothes that reveal her skin.  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am offended because I am not part of the brotherhood. I can dress like a woman. I don&#8217;t dress like a boy  I only put on unisex clothes. I am not comfortable in dresses that reveal my skin therefore you give me clothes that will cover my body and I would wear that every day of my life. But I dance every day too,&#8221; she added.  <\/p>\n<p><b> Watch the video below:<\/b> <\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"6gp0_ErYiuQ\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DELAY INTERVIEWS LISA QUAMA\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6gp0_ErYiuQ?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><b> Meanwhile, watch as Ibrahim Mahama, Eden Agbana, Randy Abbey spotted at Dumelo\u2019s father\u2019s funeral:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><div class=\"youtube-embed\" data-video_id=\"GZ5POQdno6Y\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ibrahim Mahama, Edem Agbana, Randy Abbey spotted at Dumelo\u2019s father\u2019s funeral\" width=\"696\" height=\"392\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GZ5POQdno6Y?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>JHM\/EB<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lisa Quama, a member of the DWP group, has explained why female dancers have developed a sudden interest in wearing men&#8217;s outfits in the industry.
