[Tango-L] 30 seconds of chit chat, was labor day complaint

[MACFroggy@aol.com]

Here in Buenos Aires it's part of the codigos that because the tango is so 
intimate, between the music during the chit-chat time, there is no touching of 
the other person. Kind of a time to return to normal, before taking up the 
intimate embrace again. It's actually considered bad manners for a man to hang-on 
to his partner during the interval, such as keeping his arm around her or 
holding her hand.
This is the cool-down period, and it underlines that the close embrace is the 
tango dance position, not "something else."
