From my (rather biased, admittedly) point of view, if a man is an experienced dancer, then there is absolutely no need whatsoever for him to do any seducers/drops. He can sweep me off my feet (metaphorically speaking, that is) just by his stylish dancing, excellent leading and amazing moves. What more can a woman ask for?

A man who feels the need to do more than a single seducer/drop in one dance, particularly where the music does not call for it, is in my opinion sadly lacking in ideas or confidence (if he believes he is doing it merely to please the lady). Don't get me wrong - I do not object to doing seducers/drops with experienced men who know what they are doing. However I would much much rather be dancing during the 4-8 bars of music taken up every time a man leads me into a drop or seducer. Far from impressing me, a man who does too many drops/seducers (2 in one dance is too many) strikes me as someone who is lost for ideas and/or dance moves.

I hope that helps, Stuart. (Probably not, me thinks!)
