Ironically, in our area, the Scottish Country Dance groups are more open socially and more social on the floor - we're always glad to welcome a prospective new partner, and dances always begin and end with bows and courtseys (sp?). At the last contra dances I attended, eye contact was often at a minimum, and the moment the dance ended my partner was gone to look for someone for the next dance. It may have to do with my grey hair, but at least at Scottish there's the illusion, in that final salute, that they wanted to dance with me.
