"And they cringe when they see the guys on 'Dancing With The Stars' wearing 
spandex and gliding around...no matter how masterful and powerful the 
dancing might be."
   
  And rightly so. But maybe not for the same reasons as I do, which is an almost
  complete lack of musicality, and absolutely atrocious music. "So You Think You
  Can Dance" is a better show if you understand musicality in the least, and 
there
  is much, much less posturing.
   
  The song used in the Gap commercial was swing, not blues. 
  Music for The Gap Khaki Swing comes from Louis Prima’s swing number,
  “Jump, Jive an’ Wail”, performed by Brian Setzer and Orchestra.

  They also did a commecial with line dancers using Dwight Yoakum's verison of 
  "Crazy Little Thing".

  I have a few other minor quibbles with your post, (If women want men to dance,
  they should not laugh at them or get frustrated with them when they don't get
  it. One young woman was telling me recently that she though it was OK to 
  laugh at her boyfriend's mistakes. I advised he to think otherwise. He shook
  his head in agreement.), but I agree with most of what you have written.
