Hi Cherie, I am reporting what a tourist has observed.
I warned a friend before she went to BsAs that the codigos are to be expected and to work with them. After going out to many places, including the famous and traditional milongas, her overall impression was that they approached her like they would in Australia: because she is a tourist she was treated differently to the regular locals.

If the "porteno" is under 30, he probably goes to practicas where anything goes. As a dancer who has lived and taught tango with my milonguero parter in BsAs for many years, let me assure you that the codigos are still respected and observed in all of the traditional milongas. _______________________________________________ Tango-L mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/tango-l
