I invite us women to reconsider the cultural trends we blindly follow and make well informed decisions. I personally love dancing with flats, especially with thin soled flexible modern dance shoes. As there are so many sensory receptors on the foot, wearing a flexible thin sole allows enhanced feedback from the floor by the foot's sensory receptors and thereby use the full range of motion from the foot.

Now that I have experienced a more 'barefoot' feel, my feet dread the idea of wearing a shoe that removes it so far away from the floor. Another reason I prefer dancing with flats is that i feel less vulnerable. I like the concept of two people dancing WITH each other, rather than a forceful controlling approach to social dance.

As our culture evolved over the last century and thereby allowed women equal opportunity, I feel more empowered as an individual allowing me to feel the floor fully and more stable. That mental attitude of feeling more grounded makes it easier for me to have a feeling of dancing WITH the other rather than passive following.

Don't I? This article is also for those men to allow women the freedom to chose.
