Are men bad dancers?

    I can't dance worth a ****e,...I just jog on the spot like a constipated hippo while I try to mimic the equally inept movements of my nearest brethren.

    My girlfriend has frequently mocked my efforts...I laugh it off, but it hurts.

    I curse that Dirty Dancing Film.

    What's the reason for being reasonable?

    Is that an unreasonable question?

    90% of men cant dance. The other 10% are just fooling themselves.

    You're not alone OP

    I cant dance worth a **** ...but then again I've never taken lessons etc

    I expect I'd be an excellent dancer with the right teacher

    (mid twenties fun loving brunette etc)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,089 ✭✭✭ascanbe


    Fred Astaire and Michael Jackson were quite good, i've heard.
    James Brown could 'cut-a-rug', also.

    I saw a film a few years ago where Kelly Brook played a Spanish dance teacher.

    It was supposed to be a chick flick. ;)

    She moderates the dancefloor not the internet forum

    I've met her type before

    dancefloor moderators are fascists - wont allow anything experimental - all plain vanilla....men shouldn't attempt crazy dance moves like that......you hit my friend in the jaw.........it looked like you were having an epileptic fit out there etc

    Is there some rhythm gene were missing....Very few of my mates are good dancers...and the ones that are are girls.

    Supposedly a man who's good at dancing is also good in the sack....


    The existence of Michael Flatley however, makes this theory rather sickening.

    i gaze at my shoes n do epileptic twitches, is this the done thing

    Most men can't dance without looking like spanners and most women can't run without looking retarded.

    Tis' a cruel world we have been cast into.

    I just close my eyes and rock out to the following tune on my ipod when I'm on the dance floor.

    I love a good bop, fuck it even straight blokes can be fabulous of an occasion.

    Oooooooh you have started it now Pete.

    Not all men look like spanners.:mad:



    Some look like robots..:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,004 ✭✭✭jimthemental


    I know I'm a **** dancer but I like talking to girls anyway so it doesn't really matter. I can have a conversation and go up in a girl's estimation or I can go wrong on the dancefloor and not care either way.

    I used to dance like im doing a slow motion run on the spot. Ive since retired and taken up the role as the perve watching all the ladies gyrating


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 547 ✭✭✭KylieWyley


    Don't blame the average man's dancing abilities...

    Blame the crap rhythms of modern RnB that gets played in every club around the country.

    Brought up on the northern soul scene so used to be pretty OK dancer but in recent years decided that it impacted negatively on drinking time.

    Are you Bez out da Happy Mondays?

    This guy can dance:



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,184 ✭✭✭3ndahalfof6


    the girls used to ask me out to dance and I was so fly some of them got embarrassed because they could not dance,

    I would say 90% of the girls are shiite dancers its just they can move a bit better than the men,

    don't kid your sens ladies.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,056 ✭✭✭tan11ie


    Lots of men have good rhythm, none can beat me in a dance off though :D
