For the most part I think its a question of terminology .... somewhere along the line I got (echoing DS);

Dip: Lady is totaly in control of own weight (e.g. Gus Hug, Quaver)

Drop: The lady is in a position where she is taking most of her weight (e.g. 1st move drop)

Seducer: Lady is totaly reliant on the Man (e.g. low level drop, neck seducer)

.....of course as you can see from my description, the name of the move may not describe the difference in reliance. The Ballroom drop is about the most extremem drop as the lady is prcatically horizontal...

So ..... does it matter what the moves are called?? Maybe it helps people understand the degrees of competence, trust and weight absorbtion needed by both parties.
