Imagine that. I ask people to Name that Feeling and people very kindly left their comments. And then I got busy and forgot to post the answer! I’m sorry about that. It’s a brazen hussy move.
So here’s a picture of another brazen hussy as my official apology!
The title of the picture from the last post is Indecision. I felt like the guesses in the comments were way closer to how I would interpret her expression, but I suppose it’s all in the eye of the beholder!

Wow! The word “brazen” and “hussy” wake up echoes of a more genteel time. Those words are not used in American lexicon today; replaced by crude slang that is more insulting.
Regarding the second photo of the “smoking belly dancer,” it seems to challenge a societal norm of the time. In the early 1900s, a woman smoking in public was socially unacceptable. Some large cities (New York City being one) even passed an ordinance that prohibited women from smoking in public.

I didn’t know that! I guess women smoking was taboo. It’s neither here nor there but I love when I pass someone outside who is smoking a cigarette. It’s a pleasant scent!

As a former pipe smoker, I can relate.
