    Top Ten Things On The Dance Floor Girls Do And Guys Hate

    Just came across this. Everyone has the right to decide who they date, where, when and if. Dancing doesn't confer the automatic right to hit on someone. It's perfectly okay to want to dance Salsa (or Tango, or learn car maintenance, or play in an orchestra) without wanting to date...

    2014 NYC Salsa Congress - undecided to go

    Best Salsa/Weather Combo in the World?

    They don't come much more feminist than me (and still speak to men, lol ;) ) and I dance Salsa. I've been saying for a long time now that it's sexist and silly to divide beginners into lead/follow according to genitals rather than abilities and preferences. But I think that's a whole other...

    Best Salsa/Weather Combo in the World?

    Thank you so much for your help everyone! :) Some great suggestions and things to think about there. I guess it just goes to show how personal all these things are. If I was doing a summer/winter combo, I'd certainly think seriously about New York...for the Salsa (and the street chess), if...

    Best Salsa/Weather Combo in the World?

    Hi Terence :) I haven't really been back here since the "No means no" debate on rape got locked by the mods in a way that I thought/think tolerates violence against women. This board has always been zero tolerance on racism, which I think is awesome. I can't come back as a regular here until...
