Abstract Once a year a ritual is held in a Javanese village. After a distribution of food, men dance with professional female dancers. Their allegedly sexual ethos makes these 'tayuban' unacceptable as national culture, but the dancing is a gift to the protective spirit in exchange for well-being, and represents community identity.
