A universal truth about dancing.
This is an example of comedy of manners, rather than culture shock, because it’s universal. Well, it is universal as long as we’re talking about heterosexual people, which is close enough.

Women dance because they enjoy it. It is inexplicable, they like moving to the rhythm of music, that’s all. Men dance because it involves being near women. Some people don’t like to dance, and that’s okay. But beware: never, ever trust people who dance for the other gender's reason, the man who dances for fun or the woman who dances for company.
