Is Pole Dancing the Olympic Sport of the Near Future?

You have to be pretty fit to make in the world of pole dancing... but are pole-dancers world-class athletes?
The International Pole Sports Federation says "YES!" (shortly after stuffing a buck into my g-string), and they want to prove it on the big stage by showing off at the Olympics.
And I don't mean after hours at some unofficial venues a few blocks from the arenas.
According to David Moye of the Huffington Post, there's a push to get strippers... er... dancers on the pole in time for the 2016 Games as an official Olympic sport.

Zulu virgins dance naked for king

Every year in mid September, Zulu virgins from across South Africa take part in the traditional “cane dance”.
Hundreds of African virgins are traveling to the royal residence, palace KwaNyokeni of Nongoma, to meet King Goodwill Zwelithini. Here, Zulu girls are taking part in a very colorful and ancient ritual – The Royal Cane Dance or Umkhosi woMhlanga, as it is known in Zulu language.
