Are they first couple is SCD history where the female dancer is more masculine than the male?

oooh this thread has the potential to be lots of fun....if somewhat libelous

I don't think any man could rival Natalie (or Erin or Karen Hardy or....well, many women) in the giving of icy stares.

In most cases where women have reached the top of a competitive tree they have had to be fairly strong characters in addition to possessing talent.

I think Martina might have been more macho than Matthew but we will never know now.

Oh hooray, another spiteful and pointless 'Let's bash Ricky and Natalie thread'
:yawn:

I am not bashing Natalie or Ricky. I think they and Alibrian are the best two couples left.

I just noticed yesterday how masculine Natalie looked. Some may say like a man in drag.

I thought she looked fantastic dancing with Ian when Dame Shirley was singing. Highlight of the show for me.

Ditto!

Of all the words I'd use to describe Natalie, masculine is one that would NEVER have entered my mind.

Slim, attractive, classy and elegant definitely, also dedicated and professional - maybe it's those last two some people don't think of as feminine ...

Could not agree with you more.
Love the work Natalie has done with Ricky and her dance with Ian was gorgous.
