    A ridiculously biased, toxic man. Me!

    What I consider normal is not necessarily normal for you and vice versa. Normal is just a construct of our minds. Actually there is not just one “normal”, there are many “normals”. Yours, mine, the guy who just found the post by accident, the lady’s…

  • Roles, identities and… the catch

    Roles, identities and… the catch

    In most of the comments and arguments about roles, the common denominator is that when we involve the genders people tend to forget that we are talking about roles and not about identities. Take for example any actor in any movie. Let’s say Tom Hanks in the movie California. He…

    Oscar awards and role names

    After my last post, I had a fascinating discussion with the blog’s community members that was really enlightening. The question was simple. Do you prefer the names leader and follower or man and woman when it comes to roles in Tango? To be honest, most of the following text was…

    We need you

    I haven’t seen her for some time but I assumed she was on vacation. It was summertime and I assumed our timings were a bit off so we hadn’t seen each other for a couple of months or so. When I saw her, I asked how she was. What she…

    Power games and a debunked theory

    It all started with an excellent post by Oa Metzner in her Facebook profile. She described her experience so far in the role of leader and urged men to be careful with the power they have and how they use it. I reposted her text and I also followed the…

    Are you an artist?

    A few days ago I asked the people in the blog’s community (if you haven’t joined yet… what are you waiting for?) to answer the following question. “Do you consider yourself an artist when you dance socially?” What followed were some really interesting discussions and in this post, I will…

    Stagnation

    “When you started the blog… Did you know that you will have so many things to write about?” she asked me between songs. “No!” I answered and actually, I told her that there was once a period (when I was still posting these texts only to Facebook) when I decided…

  • Tango addicts and dealers

    Tango addicts and dealers

    If we, as dancers, are addicts, this makes the event organizers our “drug” dealers… our Tango-drug dealers. Especially the ones in our local community. They organize events where we can get our dose of Tandas. When there is a market opportunity, for example, an area or a time slot where there is no event some…

  • Men, sex and Tango

    Men, sex and Tango

    A common misconception as already mentioned is that people who dance Tango, do so because they are trying to find a love partner. Even worse some men might think it’s a nice opportunity to hook up with lots of women and spice up their sex life. I already wrote that these misconceptions often lead to…

  • Dialog vs fight

    Dialog vs fight

    Tango is also a social dance and being social means that it needs to integrate differences. It includes people from different cultures, backgrounds, nationalities, styles, etc., and brings them all together in its embrace. Its history is full of differences and disagreements between styles, orchestras, generations, etc. Being social means that inevitably there will be…
