A former professional ballet dancer I dated for a while told me "If they dance well they can't f**k well and vice versa." I told her I did not believe that but she swore it was true. She was certainly in a position to know!
That's maybe true with real prima donnas. But not that many of us here are into ballet and extreme dancing. BTW, how was she?
In my experience, if a woman is deft and agile on the regular dance floor, there is a good chance, that she will be dexterous also in other situations.

Seriously folks, unless it's happened to you, it might be hard to believe how simple it is not to extricate yourself from one of these kooks, especially if they've also been studying martial arts... the worst one I had, actually did have silver hair, which fooled me into thinking he'd be harmless. But woah no. Every time I'd make a run for it, he'd be there anticipating, catch and reel me back in, grab both forearms and force me under into a twist again until I was out of breath; it looked like planned slapstick, people were laughing and clapping, unknowing, unheeding of my chagrin, terror, and exhaustion, unable to read my mouthed mute cry of "help me."
It oughta be a felony | |

Posted: 6/21/2009 7:45:29 PM | Another biatch about men??? I think your running low on disdainful topics about men.
Personally, I would love to find a man who loved dancing as much as I do. They are rare. Waiting for your next cruel stab....
And here's a stuffy thought -
If a man dances with you in such a manner (a whole effing 2 minutes out of your life) that you dislike, don't accept a dance from him again and your ruminations are solved! | |

Posted: 6/22/2009 3:45:14 AM | As Lil said, it is a few minutes out of your life not a life time commitment. Even if a man can't dance when I meet him, if he is willing to learn because he knows it is imporant to me....that scores points. I have met men who refused to learn to dance, that is an issue, not because he refused to dance but because he would not learn something I like and he would not want me to go dancing without him of course--but he would want me to learn about and participate in his interests.
When I was married, I would on occasion sit and watch racing with him--would rather have had my teeth pulled with pliers--but it was important to him and he enjoyed the company...but he would never participate in things I liked. I even asked him why he would not longer participate in yada, yada as he had prior to marriage and his response to me--I don't have to do those things because we are married. I just did them because you liked them--to me that was lie and mispresentation of who he was. If you meet up with someone for whom dancing is a passion and you refuse to participate--tell the dancer on the front end--it would save you both a lot of headaches and the dancer can move on to find someone who shares the joy it brings to them. There is even a dating site for dancers but noone in my area is on it. Move to the music! | |

Posted: 6/22/2009 6:01:32 AM | It seems many here treat a dance as if it were a souffle or somthing-if it falls or burns or has the wrong ingredients, it's just not a good souffle.
"Serious" dancing seems an oxymoron to me. The only thing going for me as a dancer is a good sense of rhythm and poor sense of embarrassment.
I don't care if a woman turns out when I'm thinking in. Or if she never wants to step on the backbeat. As long as we don't fall down or cause too much mayhem amongst the others, it's an excellent dance. | |

Posted: 6/22/2009 6:35:07 AM | | msg 103 tryagain, The former professional ballet dancer was referring to men who dance well, not women. At the age of 41 she had led quite a lengthy single life. She was quite flexible and I can truthfully say was by far and for numerous reasons the very best sexual partner I have ever experienced. | |

Posted: 6/22/2009 1:41:56 PM | Glad you shared that with everyone here. We are all so interested in all the senior boy`z conquests and such. Have you ever considered starting a thread exclusively for over 60 guys to talk with eachother? You could name it "boasts, notches, lies, and other such ramblings for the senior male." I think it would be a very popular subject for some of you , and you could all go there and exchange tales of your big adventures, instead of having to always try and fit them into the context of other threads. Much simpler. | |

That’s not a bad idea at all, even better to create a new forum category.
But, based on this forum history, I would bet my POF life, that the very posters advocating such a radical thread couldn’t keep away from it, and would find a way to invade it in no time. | |

Posted: 6/23/2009 3:48:30 AM | To save all the ladies who have been embarassed by the silver haired dancing machine...........................................................
SEND HIM MY WAY....................
You don't want to dance with him, politely decline but don't accept another man's request to dance during the same song. Very bad dance manners. | |

Posted: 6/23/2009 4:05:42 AM | I have been trilled, dipped and two stepped on.......ouch
I haven't danced in years that way and it almost made my heart stop.
I like the self expression of dancing or a partner that I Like...notice I like and that likes me to hold me close and breathes heavy on my neck....not some stinky stranger groping a feel while they hold me close....so I never slow dance with strangers anymore.
I love line dancing....so I am going to take classes for that....I can watch the cutie in front of me..or his booty. I also want to take salsa lessons....so I can be that sliver fox groping someone along the way.......but the thrillers and two steppers.......don't do it for me ....... they kind of scare me.....a normal looking man that ask me to dance can become a nightmare after he grabs my hands and dips and twists me in ways my body can no longer do and then I limp away with that What Happened look.......ouch and some how I am the one looking like a idiot on the dance floor....
But I will have to say in my area the women now dance together....the men watch. Especially the younger women that are almost sexual in dancing with each other. I am afraid I can't do the sexual dancing with another woman or women and slither up and down on them........some how while I was raising kids and being married I became old. How did I miss all this fun? Cheers........ | |

Posted: 6/23/2009 4:37:28 AM | | I don't dance, much ,but want to.....I have learned the salsa, love the cuban suffle, tried hiphop (don't laugh, nearly killed myself on that one but did it)...and want to learn so much more...I have had men show me how to do some country steps . (they counted for my sake)...If you have someone overly assertive just simply complain of a knee injury and walk gracefully back to your seat. (this would be legit for me, have to be careful)...I would love to learn ballroom dancing. If they are good, I really like to watch the silver haired dancing machines. Nothing more attractive than a man with the right moves. | |

Posted: 6/23/2009 5:59:38 AM | OP,
crabbing about how some people dance 
Lord have mercy.
I'd be thrilled to be able to get up and dance again.
With anyone. Anyhow. Anywhere.
 But I DO have FUN with a smooth floor and music!
I love catching the beat and wheelchair dancing.. gosh yes! | |

Posted: 6/23/2009 6:22:53 PM | | To the person talking about Dumbing down:If the girl is supposed to follow the guy's lead,I would say she's a good follower,not dumbing down.Anything more than that,Iwould call it back leading or in west coast swing,hijacking(it's allowed).Nothing ruins the continuity of a dance faster than the girl doing her own moves! | |

Posted: 6/24/2009 3:52:58 AM | ^^I agree and I am the one who used the term 'dumbing down'. I always seek out men who are great dancers to improve my dance. Am learning bolero,tango and west coast right now. I teach east coast, line dancing, schotiche, two step, country and ballroom cha-cha, can do fox-trot, samba, rumba, salsa, waltz-country and ballroom. Have done Lindy-not my fav but can do it. It all goes back to trust. If he leads well and I trust him--we can dance whatever we want. I have found the majority of the time if there is an issue--he does not lead well and the lady assumes she cannot dance because she is unfamiliar with the dance. The first time I did the tango, merenge and the polka was on the dance floor--the guy thought I was sandbagging when I said I did not know how--he was a great leader and fortunately I follow well when given good direction.
I have lost many an interested fellow because he did not want to dance. Would rather dance than go to they gym. | |

Posted: 6/24/2009 8:05:06 AM | | As long as you can still rock the beat why not - get out there and shake-a-leg. Oh, but guys, do try to learn how to dance before you hit the floor. Anything is better than the old white-boy-shuffle! | |

Posted: 7/17/2009 3:41:30 AM | ^^^ Dave then she better not dance to blues music!
I take EC swing, its really fun. Need to polish this up a bit more before I try West Coast; which is more difficult. Did take salsa lesssons also; was ok, but I prefer swing.
would love to find someone who enjoys dancing.. but that doesnt seem to be happening. Even at the singles dance which has a variety of music; most guys stand by the bar.. & you have to ask THEM... sigh.. I'm there to dance, not run away with someone & get married! Whats that country song now? the one where she cant remember her last name??? ha ha | |

I've done the reverse, just starting East Coast/Lindy after many months with West Coast. I'm not sure if WCS is more difficult, they are actually very similiar in many ways. I think I prefer East Coast because it's easy to find many places in my area (MA) where live bands perform. WCS is danced mainly to DJ's. Still fun, but live is better.
And as I've become more immersed in the local swing community I'm amused to find there are some in both camps who hate the other. Always reminds me of that Monty Python skit about the tendency to fragment into increasingly smaller sub-groups (The People's Judea Liberation Front vs the Judea People's Front, etc) . Contra and Square dancers have the same type of feud going on. It's ALL fun as far as I'm concerned. | |

Posted: 7/17/2009 11:16:20 AM | | I'd love to learn how to ballroom dance. I watch the shows and try to figure out how to do the steps and the moves. I've been searching all my life for a man who knows how to ballroom dance well. I'm a fast learner too and know how to relax and follow. | |

Posted: 7/17/2009 12:04:07 PM | I have In my early days as a ballroom dancer. Now days I am a gold level ballroom and Latin American dancer so if the silver haired dancers try it with me I am apt to tall them they need more lessons because I can swing dip and twirl with the best of them. However there is a rule in ballroom that has you go in a certain direction called the line of dance. If he is rude enough to be unaware of the others on the dance floor and bumps into them I will instruct him on appropriate dance behavior.  | |
