[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They learn manners. That can't be bad. Isn't a LGBTQ issue[/quote] It is if the idea of girls dancing with other girls is so scary that they'd rather exclude girls who want to participate.[/quote] My DC participated last year. Although they strive for 50/50, it rarely is - especially when kids have practices or games, travel (it's Friday nights) or are sick. Girls frequently dance with girls and boys frequently dance with boys after the available adults are exhausted. None of them care about or seem uncomfortable dancing with their own gender. Trust me - the kids would much rather dance with their own gender than one of the adults. Part of this is learning how to ask another dance (they alternate which gender asks) and making small talk with someone you don't know of the opposite gender. I wish they spent more time on other etiquette (ie, table manners), but hopefully that will come. [/quote]
