Reading the different posts on this subject...
 
It seems that is clear that traditional tango dancers are happy with their milongas, if they ever go to another milonga they adjust to the rules and characteristics of that place and do not disturb anyone.
 
Many Nuevo dancers have their own practicas and milongas in many places and do not disturb anyone either.
 
Traditional tango dancers do not mind to have separated milongas, as most of them consider that Nuevo dancers disrupt their dancing.
 
Nuevo dancers on the other hand for reasons that are not clear, do not want to have separated milongas and insist with going to the traditional milongas to upset the local dancers.
 
Chris UK stated "Almost all nuevo dancers found in trad European milongas are teachers. For them, a nuevo-only milonga would be about as much use as an advert-only radio station."
 
Uhmm! it seems that the reason the Nuevo dancers come to the traditional milonga is to show off and steal tango students for their own groups... then.
 
To show off and to disrupt the dance are reasons to be thrown out of a milonga, it has always being that way, but now you have the added element of student stealing...this is even worse.
 
Please,let me know if you think that my interpretation is wrong.
 
Best regards,
 
Sergio
