People dance tango for many different reasons. Sergio, maybe not all men from your parts approach tango in a scholarly and with a pureness of the heart way adhering to some mythical codigo. Some approach it as a pick-up joint, hitting upon visitors in within a very short time. I have read literature about this "shark" behaviour happening, warning women before they go. It is not a behaviours unique to portenoes, I think. I have seen it happen in Australia on visitors. Boys will be boys, no matter where you live. Vince In Melbourne
