Default How to dance like a Whitey

Okay so it's a pure fact that Dominican's can seriously dance. But to learn the secret why so many white people dance so bad take a look at this:

FYI the file is 6MB so your going to want to have some kind of broadband to see the video clip.

You should really think before you post such hateful things. I am a whitey dancer and so are many on this board. Many of us have honkey dancers in our families too. You should try to be a little bit more sensitive and inclusive. DR1 is all about diversity. This type of hate-speech just tears people apart.

Scandall,

It was not meant in any way to be racist, demeaning, etc... I just thought it was really funny.

Hey until about 3 years ago that was me big time - until I started taking salsa classes to learn properly. Now I part team teach those classes. SO everyone has the ability to learn - it's just if and how bad.

-x

Default Just guessing, but

I believe there may have been a bit of "tongue in cheek" in Scandall's post.

Now, as a 15yo chica, I already know all that Latin stuff. What I want to know is, can you teach me to dance like they do in the video? That looks WAY cool!!!

I'm still working on the clap and point, but I've got the slow dancing down to an art.

Dude...I thought it was hilarious...was just poking fun at the over-sensitivity of many people today. Keep'm coming.

Scandall!
I agree with Aerobaticman!! You should not take it too personal, I find it very funny myself, and Im white. I do have a lot of whitey dancers in my family too, but it's just fun to look at!!!!!

Now smile!

I think Scandall's post comes with a healthy dose of sarcasm.
