oh yes, they were really the days, when you espied the lady of your dreams, plucked up the courage to go across and said "May I have this dance" if she said yes, you held her hand and escorted her to the floor where you put your hand on her waist, pulled her close to you and for the next five minutes you were in heaven . That all finished with the advent of R&R where you just simply threw her about and jigged up and down like a crazed zombie for a few minutes, then spent the next ten minutes in the gents making sure your quiff was just right before going out and doing it all again . Yes no doubt in my book R&R killed romance, why I even heard one fella simply walk up to a girl and asked "Do you f..k" she replied "for you you sweet talker , I might "that was it they didn't bother to jive just simply got their coats .As I've said before"Fings ain't wat they used to be" I know which I prefer.

Actually, that dance started in the 1930s. Here is an example from 194i before R and R existed.

In latin dancing, the jive is a dance style that originated in the United States from African-Americans in the early 1930s. It was popularized in 1934 by Cab Calloway. It is a lively and uninhibited variation of the Jitterbug, a form of Swing dance. Glenn Miller introduced his own jive dance in 1938 with the song "Doin' the Jive" which never caught on.

. We used to have dancing lessons at school where we learnt not only to dance properly but respect for the female with whom we wished to dance. /quote]

At school, we learnt the waltz and square dancing. It was fun although most of us were painfully shy. Also, the girls and boys had to dress and act politely,
