Would you dance with your bf at a str8 wedding?

[Davelandia]

Anyone I know that would invite me to a wedding would know the husband is coming too - so if they weren't already expecting it - they deserve the rude awakening. I wouldn't dance solely with him - hell I'll dance with anyone - but there would certainly be no hesitation on my part to dance with the BF.

Dave and I are both a little self-conscious...We both tend, by our nature, to be very low key in public. So probably not. However, we both love to slow dance in the privacy of our own home. (As if I even need an excuse to lose myself in his strong arms.....)

My boyfriend and I have been together for 10 years and we got a joint invitation to my nephews wedding. We decided not to dance even before we got to the wedding.
At the wedding my nephew and his bride came up to us and asked us why we weren't dancing. We told them we didn't want anyone to feel uncomfortable. They said fuck that. This is our wedding. We want everyone to have a good time. If someone doesn't like it, they can leave. At some point during the night they each had a dance with both of us. My nephew is a United States Marine.

Cool nephew and bride. Congrats on the good bloodline.

IF I had a (straight) wedding to go to...

IF I was out to my entire immediate family (if they were there)....

IF I had a boyfriend...

IF I went with my boyfriend...

IF there was no psycho homophobe around (ie. I don't want to get killed over a dance...though after a little drink I could probably ignore a snide remark or two).

IF my boyfriend was a dancing type...

IF they weren't playing polkas non-stop like all the weddings I've been to lately (because the "old folks" were in charge of their kids' weddings)....

I would.

I don't see why someone should feel uncomfortable...and why it should be wrong. It's a dance...not sex. Women seem to dance with each other all the time (actually in pairs that is) and there's nothing sexual about it.

If I had one, yes, no questions asked. I'd probably broaden my horizons and ask a female to dance too because I just don't care.

My partner was best man at one last summer and yes we danced and yes we had fun and no one seemed bothered by it at all.

Unlikely. I am very self-conscious about dancing and being watched, even with a dear old aunt or cousin. I would be uncomfortable dancing with my partner, even if no one else was.

The last straight-friend wedding I went to, my partner was invited but there was no dancing of any kind anyway.

The last family wedding, the groom left a telephone message prohibiting me from bring my partner, on his father-in-law's orders. This is totally inexcusable and unforgivable. Needless to say, I did not attend and have not seen or spoken to them since.

If I had a boyfriend and there was dancing of course! The only reason not to is if I was specifically asked not to - and like wundersteve said, if that was the case then I wouldn't even be there.

Wow, that's really gross. Is the in-law's family bible thumpers?

 

[teadrinker]

I've danced with both men and women at weddings - it's all good fun. Mind you, I have two left feet, no sense of rhythm, and I'm also appallingl clumsy, so any dance partner of mine has to have a strong constitution.

-T.

 

[wundersteve]

The bride's father is a southern Italian immigrant and Roman Catholic - and a hypocritical one since he knocked up my aunt before they were married, and his kids all shacked up with their spouses prior to being married. But, the gay nephew is the only in violation of Catholic dogma apparently - not that I am even Catholic anyway.

Not that all Italians are like that...this uncle is extremely arrogant and domineering. What gets me is that my aunt spinelessly give in to him. She wasn't raised that way.

 

[kurtwild]

yea,i would.
i would kiss him too.but this is never gonna happen cos i hate weddings and would never go to one!

 

[yvrpalms]

we were invited to a co-worker of my fiance wedding. We danced. We were also at a friend of his family's wedding for their daughter. we danced then too. No-one batted an eyelash. and this was before gay marriage was legal in Canada

 

[ALLANKREPINA39]

Can't dance. HATE it when some misguided jerk drags me onto the dance floor despite all my protests. [At that point I usually find my way to the nearest exit and drive home.]
If I had a bf, he'd be considerate enough [hopefully] not to ask me to dance in the 1st place.
Hate to sound like a sour old jerk, but that's me right now.

 

[smile86]

we are kinda shy in public, but at a wedding there shouldn't be a bad atmosphere, if the bride and groom know me well enough to invite me, they know i have a boyfriend and so yes, if we'd had a few drinks and felt like it i would dance with him.

although i don't think i'm going to be invited to a wedding any time soon, and taking my boyfriend to a wedding might give him ideas...

 

[jockboy01]

soon Jockboy is going to come in here and call me a liar

As predicted... liar, liar, liar. And that little twink would agree with me if he were here too... he really liked you, even with the "I'm going to kill you" face.

I have and I would again. If I had a boyfriend, I wouldn't go to any wedding that wasn't welcoming. I would expect any friend of mine to be okay with that.
