Is it seen as socially exceptable to dance with random people in night clubs in Sweden?

No, and the clubs here are crap. Nothing like the clubs I used to go to in Hollywood. There aren't any decent dance clubs here ... that I'm aware of.

dan

I think its Ok in the whore houses and gay bars. As the Swedish men are not known for their dancing expertize, well its OK if the ladies like their mates jumping up and down like monkeys.
So you would be the only one hitting the dance floor, then your faced with two options. getting your head kicked in by ther miffed Swede's and the ladies thinking your a frotting weirdo, so, good luck, your'll need it.

Poor Dan, are you the one asking if you should move to Sweden? After all these answers you will definitely not want to come here! laugh.gif

Well, I don't know if you're a good dancer but you might be dissapointed to know that most Swedish are born with gene that makes their hips half-paralized, making it impossible to dance salsa or for women to move their hips when they walk. Fortunately, in my case, my son doesn't carry the gene so he can dance. laugh.gif

I can dance! And so can my Swedish girlfriends...but then we went to lessons from very young.

I actually agree with Nigel...most Swedish men can't dance properly...

When you can dance the lambada (I learnt when I worked in Brazil) as well as I can..... then you can dance.

Yeah...the other night I thought this one guy was going into a seizure...scary!

You ever seen a swedish guy try to clap to the music? LOL!!! No wonder the birth rate among native Swedes is so low here! :twisted:

What? LOL

Some Swedish men are good at dancing...but those guys like dansband and I hate that!

One of the things I liked about London was the guys usually knew how to dance and weren't shy about it.

Oh no! A man should really know how to swing his hips (for women it's a given). I've seen four-year-old Mexican boys leading four-year-old Mexican girls in salsa. Salsa is the best.
