Taking things too seriously
Tangocynic has been producing some hilarious stuff so far but I think this tops everything that came earlier because, while stereotypical this may be, I am quite certain there are people who behave as portrayed in the tango scenes around the world…

Love this youtube clip. Thanks for sharing!
This is a great clip, so insightful as they always are. Interesting how most in this series highlight how our egos can be a barrier in tango. I am yet to understand excactly why this is in tango, Why does it bring out so much ego defensiveness? Is it the same in other dances?
Libertango, thanks for the comment.
Regarding your last question, since I don’t do other dances anymore I can’t fairly comment about them. As for tango, my guess is that perhaps because tango is a dance that encourages strong emotional connections between partners. I think anything (e.g. art, fashion, tv, movies, etc.) that provokes a strong reaction is more likely to draw out the extremes in people!?
