Gus,

I agree with some of what you're saying, but I think that you missed my point too.

I wouldn't feel particularly uncomfortable dancing with a transvestite (at least, I don't think I would, I've never been in the position to find out). I wouldn't feel comfortable about walking down the street hand in hand with one, and I certainly wouldn't be ever kissing one on the lips (or any other part of the body either for that matter). But when it comes to dancing, I dance with other guys, why not one who just happens to like dressing as a woman? I wouldn't be dancing with him (her?) other than to have fun, and at the end of the dance, I'd walk away.

I think that it's up to the individual as to what they personally find comfortable/uncomfortable. Lots of men would not be comfortable dancing with another guy at all. So they would be taking the same PoV to you dancing with a straight guy, as you are to me dancing with a gay guy. I'm not saying that there's a right or a wrong here either. It is totally up to the individual.

As for exhibiting homosexual tendancies, I have to disagree. As I said before, I don't fancy most of the women I dance with. Why should the fact that I'm dancing with a gay guy mean that I fancy him? For me, it's all just dancing. If there were people watching who had a problem with it, or were concerned about my sexuality, then that's their problem, not mine.
