You are smart and witty--and your photos are too. I sit like a slob, but you have inspired me to embark on a quest to find my inner Sophia Loren! I enjoyed your post so much that I wrote about it for two days on my blog.... Now there is a caption-writing contest for a pair of photos that might be titled How NOT to Sit at a Milonga... I would like to invite you to write a guest post to the blog, or join the caption writing contest. I know your words will add a sparkly touch! Feel free to email me if you want to write a guest post. Also feel free to edit this comment before you post it, if you like. Finding your blog is the highlight of my week! This is a wonderful post! You are smart and witty–and your photos are too.

Your post definitely got me to thinking about the things we do to get asked to dance... will be posting about it shortly and linking to your post.

Yeah in tango we sit and relax when we're not dancing, and the leaders approach us. I wrote this article more from a humerous and fun standpoint as far as how to place the legs, but it is true that when possible I try to sit as elegantly as possible. Makes me feel good anyway. ha ha Hi Maria!

Must be a tango thing...I learn something new every day. I do like your explanatory pictures. When I want to dance I stand at the edge of the dancefloor and enjoy the music, and I get asked in no time, or I just ask someone. Sitting won't get you many dances with the salseros!

I'm going to link my blog, tangocherie, to it. Once i was sitting across from a tourist woman at Nino Bien during the hot summer, and she was wearing very wide leg short shorts. (She also was very heavy set.) She crossed her legs in such a way that everyone across the room could see right up to her... There are better ways to get dances in Buenos Aires. Un beso, Cherrie Thanks SO much for being very clear, with the photos, of the dos and don’ts.
