Question:

Why do people think that men should not dance, and if they do, they are gays?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: These are "stereotypes." Every society has its own expectation of what is supposed to be masculine or feminine. If you go against a prescribed norm, you are labeled. People who judged dancing men as gays are coming from a society that consider dancing as exclusively feminine. Look at it from the point of view of Latin Americans. Dancing is macho in these culture. Likewise, it is also very feminine for women.
