Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am a 50 year old straight guy that that dances nearly nude in a really hot gay club with people half my age. I have been a nightclub dancer for over 25 years and have developed a style called Emergent Dance.Being 50, I'm always telling myself that I have to quit clubbing. However, I made a deal with myself that I could continue my club dancing for one more year if I wrote a book that tells what I've learned over the past quarter century.This book reads like Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values. It is a memoir of spending the 50th year of my life on the nightclub dance floor, intermixed with the findings of my quixotic quest to discover why we must dance.As the memoir picks up with my 50th birthday, I begin detailing what emergent nightclub dancing is and how the experience can be conjured. I continue with all sorts of practical tips that will help you unleash the hidden primal dancer within you.Much like Pirsig, I become maniacally possessed with my quest to find the essential reason for dancing. This quest lead me to many astounding discoveries. The book ventures into the world of archetypes, evolutionary biology, theory of mind, psychopharmacology, and many other interesting topics.The bottom line is that there is an amazing dancer locked within you. You need only to unleash it. This book can help.If nothing else, you should get a kick out of reading my hilarious, salacious, and often heart rending tales as the last baby-boomer left standing on the dance floor.Trouble on the Dance Floor is an unusual literary work. It combines raucous tales from the nightclub with hard science and deep philosophy. It is fun and intellectual. You won't regret reading it.

Download or read book Boots of Leather Slippers of Gold written by Elizabeth Lapovsky Kennedy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When most lesbians had to hide, how did they find one another? Were the bars of the 1940s and 1950s more fun than the bars today? Did Black and white lesbians socialize together? Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold is a ground-breaking account of the growth of the lesbian community in Buffalo, New York from the mid-1930s to the early 1960s Drawing on oral histories collected from 45 women, it is the first comprehensive history of a working-class lesbian community. These poignant and complex stories provide a new look at Black and white working-class lesbians as powerful agents of historical change. Their creativity and resilience under oppressive circumstances constructed a better life for all lesbians and expanded possibilities for all women. Based on 13 years of research, Boots of Leather, Slippers of Gold ranges over topics including sex, relationships, coming out, butch-fem roles, motherhood, aging, racism, work, oppression, and pride. Kennedy and Davis provide a unique insider's perspective on butch-fem culture and trace the roots of gay and lesbian liberation to the determined resistance of working-class lesbians. The book begins by focusing on the growth and development of community, culture, and consciousness in the bars and open house parties of the 1930s, '40s, and '50s. It goes on to explore the code of personal behavior and social imperative in butch-fem culture, centering on dress, mannerisms, and gendered sexuality. Finally the book examines serial monogamy, the social forces which shaped love and break-ups, and the changing nature and content of lesbian identity. Capturing the full complexity of lesbian culture, this outstanding book includes extensive quotes from narrators that make every topic a living document, a composite picture of the lives of real people fighting for respect and for a place that would be safe for their love.

Download or read book Satan in the Dance Hall written by Ralph G. Giordano and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2008-10-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satan in the Dance Hall explores the overwhelming popularity of social dancing and its close relationship to America's rapidly changing society in the 1920s. The book focuses on the fiercely contested debate over the morality of social dancing in New York City, led by moral reformers and religious leaders like Rev. John Roach Straton. Fed by the firm belief that dancing was the leading cause of immorality in New York, Straton and his followers succeeded in enacting municipal regulations on social dancing and moral conduct within the more than 750 public dance halls in New York City. Ralph G. Giordano conveys an easy to read and full picture of life in the Jazz Age, incorporating important events and personalities such as the Flu Epidemic, the Scopes Monkey Trial, Prohibition, Flappers, Gangsters, Texas Guinan, and Charles Lindbergh, while simultaneously describing how social dancing was a hugely prominent cultural phenomenon, one closely intertwined with nearly every aspect of American society fromthe Great War to the Great Depression. With a bibliography, an index, and over 35 photos, Satan in the Dance Hall presents an interdisciplinary study of social dancing in New York City throughout the decade.
