Men dancing with men and women dancing with women happened throughout of
history of the dance. In the past there was no problem about it whatsoever
and it happened everywhere, in all circumstances, and in any historical
period.

Only they did it if there was a luck of other sex.

In tango, switching roles between a man and a woman does not make sense,
since in the regular embrace they can dance exchanging lead and follow which
is the whole new world in the man-woman relationship on the dancing floor.

In fact, women affecting men and men listening to women is a sign of the
upmost level of tango dancing.

Interested?
