Yuh is ah Trini series: #23
Yuh is ah Trini|"If yuh know to throw waist"
"Music sweet eh, come and throw waist nah". Now I hope after talking so much about how good you are that when she calls you to 'throw waist' that you are able to keep up. If you can't then it is a case of dongosorrow and please run and hide. In this case your reputation will take a severe hit that would lead to 'fatigue galore' from your male counterparts or the look of death from the women who know better - lordy poor soul. He will be scorned by the women who would say dat man is of no use - he is ah soft man.
To quote a lady friend of mine, "Oh gawd like he dead or what... Better yuh mudda did plant ah fig tree instead". Yuh see what I meant about the scorn. This is contempt and a situation that a man needs to avoid like the plague. So what happens if you, as a man, throw more waist than the woman, what then? Nothing all they would say is that, "yuh is man" because in the flip side we always have something to lose.
So what does it really mean to "throw waist"? Well it is to dance with gay abandon but specifically to "wine" as only Trini women can. If you and a novice then it is in your best interest to stand on the side line and watch to avoid being embarrassed. These winers are naturally endowed with this talent to throw waist and in many cases it can look like a bull rider who eventually gets thrown while attempting to tame the gyrations of this wild creature. If you think I am joking then go and try your luck.
If this question is asked of any Trini woman the plain and simple truth is that to throw waist is to wine wine on the man or simply to wine and create honey for all 'long eye Trini men'. When I think about it Iwer sang about this wine wine wine wine and we are not talking about red wine for drinking but wine as in throw waist! Take a moment to listen to the track now.
