a request for a dance, is the eye contact and a head nod. 

It speaks highly of politeness, courtesy and above all 

about avoiding uncomfortable and at times embarrassing experiences.

It is unsettling being stalked by overzealous individuals or being put into 

the difficult situation of accepting reluctantly or declining uncomfortably. 

In spite of its popularity nobody appreciates being "used."”

 

- Extract from "El Firulete"
