Well I am the opposite case, I have been dancing for a while now and I've never really attracted women. So, I guess dancing or not does not have anything to do with it.

If you would care to develop...people on this forum could give you more tips on how to improve your dating game but if its just dancing, remember that if you are a guy you need to be the one to approach the girl. not the opposite. If the girl approaches you normally its because she is experienced in dancing (+she is confident) and/or she wants to have a great time and wants you to give her all your attention for a dance or two.

If you dance alone in a corner and you are a guy/girl its rare that people are going to go seek you out, you need to make yourself available. Or set your ground (guy) seek a girl who seems whiling to follow you a shy girl or a girl who is alone (don't think about looks (guys) you go out and take the time to dress up to have fun not to be the bench warmer).

I've danced with fat women and women who where a little over weight and their where just as happy as any other girl I danced with if not more. I don't see why some men limit themselves to dancing with attractive girls only.

There is not all that much to dancing. All it really is is moving with the rhythm and being comfortable in your own skin.

You don't have to do any Michael Jackson or Usher moves on the dance floor. If you start doing that with a woman, she will just leave you.

While breakdancing looks good on stage, it will not work with a woman. Also, quit doing the running man to "Falsetto" by The Dream it is embarrassing.

Just move with the music and have you some good times. Don't worry about other people laughing... except for him over there. Worry about him because he is drunk out of his mind and he is grabbing other guys.

Okay, run.

It's really not hard to dance. All you need is rhythm, a good beat and it's a wrap.

What kind of women are you around?!

(To people who "think" dancing is gay)And as far as dancing being gay, are you that this is not some kind of bitterness or reverse psychology coming from the fact that you yourself can't dance?



Why would anyone who doesn't like to dance or doesn't like dancing in general post on a thread about dancing?

At best he looks childish. This sort of public light hearted frolicking is contradictory to the natural instincts and social expectations of a man to be alert and ready for defense/protection - its why male exhibitionism isnt the recipient of huge fanfare. (Guys Gone Wild? - I think not) So this might help explain the stigma that men like me have toward dancing men.

Of course it is all relative...some men may enjoy being the center of attention as they bask in the rays of a Ricky Martinesque glow...and of course unless you're actually Ricky Martin, it really doesnt matter what other men like me think.

I also hate it when people try to claim that a man can be very "strong and powerful" when dancing...It just seems like a way to avoid acknowledging the fact that for that 20 or 30 minutes of time that he is dancing, that man has either reverted back to childhood or is getting in touch with his feminine side. (nothing wrong with that)


Now I hate dancing, because I hated my childhood and I want nothing to do with it.

CURSE YOU SALSA LESSONS!!!!!!!!

"I mean if you can't even overcome the inner fear to get out on a stupid dance floor, how are you going to pull yourself together to confront an armed intruder into your/her home?"


Good point, next intruder that breaks into my house is going to get served.

Think about it this way, there may come a point in time when the safety of this world and the balance of the universe is going to hinge on if us men dance or not.

Let's get up on the dance floor and save the world!

Yeah, Instead of having wars, I think we could spare many lives and save a helluva lot of money if we just had a good old fashioned dance off with Kim Jung Ill or Ahmadinejad...Clearly if we just challenged Bin Laden to an ass shaking contest, he'd be a lot more cooperative and that would settle the score once and for all.. No doubt about it.

Even with Tango which requires a lot of violent passion you need to respect your partner. Watch take the Lead you will understand. A history about this dance that was developed in Argentina around 1920. Guys had to learn to dance tango or they would not get a Wife. The reason is that the country was in a period of industrial development and the government required more men labor. This created a big difference of 10 men for 1 woman. The girls had the power to decide with who they would dance and later marry. These events gave birth to Tango.


Then they started growing Mango, & came up with the "Mango Tango"...

hahahahaha

Yeah, it would be funny for the intruder to say to me, "Do you wanna dance?" No, buddy, that's the last thing on my mind.
