"partner dancers should consider adopting compensatory techniques developed in kink and bondage communities for mitigating harm when playing with such asymmetrical power dynamics."

@ccshan I am belatedly reading the chapter now and it is SO GOOD! Thank you for telling us about it! Now my only problem is that I need to scream about it while also continuing to read it :D

@ccshan I must admit I don't understand what he means by "choreohexis" though.

@yingtai I looked it up and got what I think is as much information as I can get without knowing how to dance.

@ccshan I read a bit more and looked up parts of the word, and I'm getting the impression that this guy invented the term "choreohexis" himself, and that it's kind of like "the way you dance". A combination of personality and experience. I think?

@yingtai Maybe. I see the title of chapter 2 is "Choreohexis: Preparing for Partnership"
