Sometimes these women are divorcees or widows,other times are "society widows"-with husbands too busy or unwilling to attend functions."
Cunard provides DANCING PARTNERS for women who want to dance and have no-one to dance with.
On FIRST DATES, a British TV programme,there was a 94 year old millionaire who was also engaged by Cunard to work as a dancer.On First Dates he was introduced to a lovely 70 something lady whom he considered too slow for him!
The Queen Victoria has an absolutely beautiful dance hall called appropriately The Queens room.On some cruises I used to go and sit on the upper level and listen when jazz was being played. Tonight a big band gave a concert so I went to listen to them.A couple twirling,she in a beautiful long gown, he in a waistcoat.When the music stopped and he escorted the lady to her seat it was obvious he was an employee.Paid to dance. And I think it is a wonderful idea.
And then two men took to the floor.Argentinian tango resounded.The older bold man threw his leg about,then wrapped it around his partners thigh.It was not a pretty sight.
There has been talk lately about the Strictly Dancing bringing in couples of the same sex to dance together. Nooooooooooo!
