[Tango-L] Shocked

[Jack Dylan]

I think Jay is going to have to explain a lot more about the form of teaching 
in a milonga that he thinks is acceptable. IMO, it's not just about disrupting 
the other dancers; its also about the fact that most ladies truly hate it. I also 
consider it disrespectful to the lady - unless she actually asks for assistance. 
And, even then, IMO, the answer should be - 'another time, lets just dance'.
