Maybe they assume it should all "come naturally."

Short story:
Years ago when before I retired, I would hear from younger men at work that they didn't know where to meet women and I would tell them the best place I knew... Swing Dancing!

I was a dancer and I'd tell them about all the young women who go out dancing and would be happy to dance with nice young men, even if they were inexperienced. Most people remember when they first learned to dance and as an experienced dancer myself, I had no problem dancing with and helping a beginner. It was still fun for me. Btw, lots of dances offer short free beginner lessons, too.

It was a cheap night out, too. Maybe $5 to $15 at the time. Most dances I know of today are about $10 to $30, depending on whether there's a band or not and how popular it is. Also, if you don't like swing music, try salsa, or ballroom, or polka, or funk, or soul or country. Unless you live in the boonies, it's probably out there.

Guys - if your partner asks you to dance.... go for it! You'll probably have at least a little bit of fun and it's the best way I know of to get the juices flowing, if you know what I mean!

Enjoy!
