Martha, I dont recall this dance of which you speak. Could you share the
true title and calls? Thanks! I also cringe over ladies (I don't fit that
tradition) yet it is a good "place holder, ROLE identifer" for my
communities.

I must have fallen asleep during a discussion of
"ladies". What's the

I’ve got a gypsy star dance (I actually call it “Star Wrong” and not
just because
of the g-word, but because if you say “gypsy star” everybody
starts to gypsy and NOT star, so I gave up on that confusing terminology).
Haven’t seen another dance like it. The move from mad robin into the star
wrong actually flows quite well. I use men and women for roles, not
genders. When I first started calling, we considered “lady” to be a four
letter word - women’s movement and bra burning and all that. I still find
it hard to use the word “lady” and not bristle. Times have changed, now
people bristle at men and women. Go figure. I didn’t correct the “g-word”
use on this version
