Subject: Question re: the "V" opening
When you guys talk about the "V" opening, is that a
capital "V" or a lower-case "v"?
Some of you are using a capital "V" in your posts, but
I tried using it here with a woman visiting from
Argentina the other night, and she said she couldn't
dance with me because all the guys in Buenos Aires use
a lower-case "v".
Many thanks in advance,

And I have danced with many a tanguero in BsAs who
dances the "B" and sometimes a "b" - this confusion
of the B/V sounds is common among hispanohablantes.

And as for the correct labels of tango styles? I have
asked probably 100 men in BsAs what they call their
style and you know what they answer? They say "Es el
mio" - It is mine. Or, they might say, "Es de mi
padre/barrio/liso/simple." but they never say 'Close
embrace milonguero style'.!!!
How about a NEW annoying topic?

Subject: Question : the "V" opening..
Dear friends, I think that is very simple to dance in "V" .
The rules I use are: If the lady is big I dance in V mayor, opus 44, is she
is tiny I go to v minor, opus 11, if she is well endowed then I dance in B,
mayor opus 69,fortissimo sensa sforzo, if she is not endowed then I dance in
b minor flat, opus 1 (careful with her bones).
As I said at the beginning it is very easy to dance in V the trick is to
dance in W. :)) . do not try this one at home by yourself.
I have seen some guys that do milonguero in "T" with the lady across their
heads.
Some lean some much to each other that they dance in A. Some dance without
leaning at all in II.
Some are so amorphous that one could say they dance in O.
Some old miongueros have such a big belly that they dance in D.
Others like Tine follow no rules so they dance in ?. :)) but the biggest
problem is when El Turco dances to the cyrillic alphabet wit Turkish
music.:)).
May all of you fulfill your dream of dancing the letter of your preference.
Sergio.
