You might add a qualification to this -- for I would change my opinion of every dance were to go to the same person.  In previous generations, dancing as a social event meant changing partners and not spending too much time with any one partner, thus not encouraging the same level of immediate emotional entrapment.

When I was a young lady I square danced a lot. I think it is very acceptable fun. Our children have participated in square dancing at a local festival the last couple years. They have enjoyed it greatly. For the most part, only parts that touch are hands. What is more important than the activity is the clothing worn during these events. There is a misnomer in our society that says "if all parts are covered it is modest." This is false. We have been in a church where the pastor's wife was the biggest culprit. If the clothes are so tight that nothing is left to the imagination, they are not modest.
