Pole dancing enthusiasts are aiming to have this sensual performing art recognised as an Olympic sport.

Tim Trautman, president of the International Pole Sport Federation believes there is no reason why the sport should not be able to go for gold.

I can’t think of any reason why pole dancing should not be an Olympic sport either. (I’m being sarcistic, in case you can’t tell.)
