Could very well be if there is a deliberate efforts to send signals to spouse-abusers.<br /><br />BTW, was not finding anything humourous in this, to be sure.

The idiots at that cha-cha-cha school are giving their style of dancing a bad name. Someone annoyed enough and with a skill of the martial arts could make the owners of these institutions potential candidates for their own advertisements.<br /><br /> This is no advertisement. What's the opposite of advertisement? where you tell your customers to stay away from your business.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17466080577775638826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16761020.post-22699311155834204412010-04-14T18:33:42.441+05:302010-04-14T18:33:42.441+05:30Al:

Nowhere does the copy suggest it. <br /><br />I just uploaded another picture. <br /><br />The mosh pit etc is where you may hurt yourself, or as you say learning to dance and faltering. <br /><br />I stick to my version as I see it. WTF.<br /><br />KB:<br /><br />Good for you. When I mentioned subconscious, it was the message that stays without us even realising it. Of course you can see those real damn bruises.FVnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16761020.post-87654708108605881552010-04-14T07:26:44.904+05:302010-04-14T07:26:44.904+05:30Very observent!!After looking at this I would neve...Very observent!!After looking at this I would never join,it puts off just with pic,no subconcious but actually badkbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05021402956630150045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16761020.post-33920481163100525892010-04-13T18:02:13.203+05:302010-04-13T18:02:13.203+05:30FV, I suspect someone was trying to be humourous w...FV, I suspect someone was trying to be humourous with that cha-cha-cha ad, and failed miserably. A cartoon of two wannabe cha-cha-cha dancers smashing their heads together while dancing (as a motivation to learn cha-cha-cha formally) was the intent, I think, but it comes across as making fun of violence on women. The photo of an injured woman is out of place given the intent of the ad is about selling the idea of dancing as a couple.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17466080577775638826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16761020.post-19840317447974831412010-04-13T17:49:08.146+05:302010-04-13T17:49:08.146+05:30FV: "Since when has dance become associated w...FV: "Since when has dance become associated with violence? There are passionate forms with some level of aggressiveness, but they are not meant to physically hurt. "<br /><br />The only instance where "dancing"/moshing (just violently bobbing about smashing into things unknown, really) can be injurious to health is a "mosh pit", usually found close to the performer's stage in hard-core grunge/heavy metal concerts. Easy to break one's bones if one is unaware of the fundamentals of moshing without getting hurt.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17466080577775638826noreply@blogger.com
