Those are dancing vulvae, not dancing vaginae. See, this is what happens when kids aren't educated about their bodies at a young age: they grow into adults who don't know their own anatomy. Not that it would help much; in my school at least, it was never actually explained what the clitoris was or did. Sure, it was labelled on the anatomical diagrams, but nobody told us what to do with it. It certainly would have saved a lot of disappointment.

Thanks Irish
I needed a good laugh and what the heck was that and that made the list

The clip, viewed almost 3m times on YouTube and Facebook, was produced for Bacillakuten, a programme that aims to educate children aged three to six about the body.

Since its a clip to teach them about the body I see no reason not to support this its entertaining enough and well it's not like there was malicious intent making a video when the concept idea was to educate children about the body lol.

Other comments have been more supportive. “Great song about the most natural thing possible. Superb!” said one mother. “Fun song and fun video. Too bad adults turn something so nice and natural into something shameful.

“I feel sorry for those parents who get upset, this is a harmless music video,” Holmström said. A full-length version of the song will hopefully be released as a single on Spotify, he added.

The clip gained further notoriety when it was briefly classified by YouTube as “adult” content requiring viewers to confirm they are aged over 18, but the programme makers persuaded the company to relent.

Kajsa Peters, the programme’s executive producer, said reaction had been overwhelmingly supportive. “We aim our programmes at children, but most parents watch them with the kids and we hope we make it easier for them to talk about and explain things.”

She added: “When there is so much discussion and debate maybe that means it’s something society needs.”

Indeed it does
(He-he this has meme and branding potential lol)
