Poll: A question for the guys: Do you enjoy dancing?

[Weaver]

As an old raver: YES! Absolutely!

 

[Harleykin]

only headbanging....well i did when i had my long ass hair.
but i really dislike dancing. partly 'coz i'm a fat dude and i feel like i'm starred at anyway but i really don't listen to music fit for dancing anyway.
i had to practice dancing in school though. like half year PE was dancing basics and i hated it!
it's like being forced to eat broccoli as a kid you probally will dislike it later on too.
not saying i'll dislike dancing forever but right now i can't see my opinion changing.

edit: well tbh if i had a few drinks and i'm at home (aka no one see's me) and if put on the right song i kinda dance...KINDA...drunk jumping turning flailing the arms...stuff you wouldn't want to see me doing in public

 

[NCR Ranger]

Not really. I've tried before, but I'm honestly just too damn uncoordinated to be any good at it.

 

[TheRiddler]

Nope. It's too... aimless. In any sport, or really any other activity, there's a pretty clearly defined goal. Dancing doesn't really have that, so it usually just means a night of me awkwardly trying to copy someone who looks like they know what they're doing.

 

[Cerebrawl]

Yes. I can dance foxtrot, box-step(a waltz), tango and bugg(a Swedish swing dance variant). I'd love to learn mambo and salsa.

Main problem is that the girls around here rarely can dance anything but solo stuff.

I go ballroom dancing once a week and its great fun. Not really one for clubbing and the sort of dancing you do there though.

 

[zhoominator]

I've never actually been clubbing and don't drink so have no real experience of the kind of dancing most people do. I do, however, thoroughly enjoy Scottish country dance and ceilidh dancing. Out of all the activities I do, that's the one where I've met the most people from the widest variety of places. I've done a little bit of Highland dancing too but would like to take lessons because while it's great fun, I'm not very good at it (requires a lot more bounce and better coordination than I currently have). I also have a friend who has tempted me into wanting to try blues dancing too, but I'm currently in the finishing degree/moving around to find a career phase so don't really want to take up any new forms of dance until I settle down.

I dance a lot, both at home and in clubs. I dance to industrial dance music generally, but I try not to do the standard industrial dance stuff as I find it a bit stiff and repetitive. I'd say I try to be more on the electrodance/tecktonic end of the spectrum.

I really started a few years ago. Until then I'd always danced a bit at clubs but always felt kind of awkward doing so, which I guess is probably how most people feel, but then I just started practicing at home and watching videos on youtube. Basically, I think people have this idea that dancing is just a natural skill some people have, but it isn't. All the people I've ever met who I think are good at dancing, even just the people who look good messing around on a dancefloor, are good because they practice.

Well.. that and confidence, but even then practice makes confidence easier.

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

I really like to dance but by God do I suck at it. The term "dance like there is no one watching you" was made for me after a few beers.
Thankfully my lack of dancefloor moves doesn't translate to a lack of bedroom move or I would get no play from the ladies.

I learned early in my life that I wasn't meant to dance. All the music I listen to reflects that. I did at one point, but I felt ridiculous and probably looked pretty stupid.

On a side note, I find it pretty funny that people think that just because I listen to electronic music that I want to dance. Isn't that funny??
