That's a very interesting link, but I'm left with at least one question-- why did a lot of modern cultures mostly stop teaching young men how to dance? I'm not talking about formal instruction-- most people through history wouldn't afford that.
Did they stop? I learned to dance, and I've seen a bunch of impromptu dance lessons at weddings.
There seem to be a lot of men who don't dance, and this seems to be a relatively recent phenomenon.
I'm going to modify my comment above to make it less extreme.
Second thought-- is neglecting to teach a lot of young men how to dance an unconscious way of lowering their chances of courting/seducing women? If so why would that have happened?
