What is a good dancer? For one who has taken ballet, modern dance, african dance, and jazz I would have to admit that I have very flexible body movements, but I also was a gymnast, a drill team marcher, and a track runner. Based on all this experience as a child and a young adult I guess I could admit that it assisted me in the chosen subject matter. Never had a complaint yet, and my specialty is the alphabet dance .

The distinction I was trying to make is that DWTS has a variety of energetic dances: swing dances, the rumba, the tango, the cha-cha, just to name a few.

Whereas I believe many people think of very sedate dances like the waltz when they hear the words "ballroom dancing." I think of another century when I hear those words.

I agree. Exceptional sex is generated by what is present in 95% of one's brain. But how many people actually use 95% of their brain for sex. It is nothing like having a mental and emotional attraction to someone, because when those are present the body will react. This means that performance will not be the main criteria, because the emotional and mental stimulation will be the dominant attributes present when the body is in motion. So this discredits the theory that one who does not know how to dance will not be an exceptional or good lover.

I am not a really good dancer so therefore I am special and fantastic.

I once knew a guy who told me about his interesting high school philosophy. There are only two sure things you can do to get the girl. Become the best football player, or the best dancer. He said the choice was easy.

Yes! There is a rhythm that comes with dancing that can be practiced elsewhere. Also, there are movements and forms that your body can take when you are a dancer that not all people can do.

I've been with a couple professional dancers. One was good in bed, the other was lousy. I think it would be a pretty bad way to pick a sex partner. I'd rather ask how many languages you speak. The best lovers I've known have also been the smartest. Granted, it's a rather small sampling.
