Really? And which milongas in BsAs accept switching roles?
I can only recall La Marshall - and that's because it's a gay milonga.
Try the tourist milongas.
I've seen a gay gouple dancing at the Ideal. The follower in
Sometimes near the end of the milonga (Buenos Aires), Ruben and I exchange
roles without stopping while dancing, and then switch back. We only go to
conservative milongas and everyone knows us, but still, sometimes people look
at us

I've seen Tete often switching leads with his followers (as below) at
some of the major milongas .
I've occassionally seen women leading women, even tho it is frowned
upon, at the end of milongas ... (seems to me the reaction also
depended on how good the woman leader was !!!)

Although the milongas in BsAs are called gay milongas, the majority of
people who go there are not gay. They are mostly young, they are all kinds
of people, foreigners and porteno's, and women are just as likely to lead
men as men lead men or women lead women.
I saw a lovely performance once
Have you noticed that many people who switch roles, especially Argentinos,

followers steps and leading the leader's steps.
It's the same thing that makes many men difficult to lead. They seem to

I didn't read anything amusing in it at all. Perhaps you didn't actually read
the entire piece? It involved quite a bit more than a teacher
Ecsedy,
You need to reread the story very carefully.
It describes multiple acts that a reasonable person would
describe as abuse, and tells of many things that can't be
construed as legitimate teaching techniques by any stretch
of the imagination.
Why didn't they just slap the guy and ask
Hi Sorin,
I found your subject line a bit misleading. I expected to see the
review but instead your posting is really just an announcement (that
such a review is available elsewhere). Perhaps the subject could have
reflected this (e.g. New milonga review posted on my site or
something similar).
Why didn't they just slap the guy and ask for their $$$
back? You'd be surprised how much women grit their teeth
and put up with on a daily basis, when survival or just
something they want badly is at stake.
I find absurd that a woman will grit her teeth, continue taking lessons from
somebody
