It's odd, but we have a thread complaining about the "haters".

Yet here we have a thread asking for our opinion about the best male dancer that only allows the choice between two out of four - deliberately ignoring the other two as "not good enough".

And elsewhere we have a thread asking "who is the best dancer after Natalie", which presupposes that all forum members consider Natalie to be the best dancer.

The reverse of "haters"?
I've given Ben and Mark an option called "Other", and at the moment it is clear that combined people still think they aren't as good a A and P! So how does that make me a "hater"

Are you trying to honestly suggest that Ben and Mark are better dancers than Patrick and Ashley...
Its a confusing topic

Of course you aren't a hater, Stephen.

You just didn't think that Ben and Mark should be listed in a "who is the best male dancer" poll.

Furthermore, although it seems unlikely that Mark could win, Ben certainly has a fair chance of doing so.

Patrick and Ashley are surprisingly similar, imo, both very good, both nice blokes, both with annoying posture problems that spoil some of their dances, and with both it's a shame they have so little time to train. I feel vaguely sorry for both of them, though I'm not quite sure why. Either of them have the potential this year to make the final but I'm not convinced it will happen.

I think Ben will stay in longer or as long as either of them and I would bet that Ben is currently getting more votes than either. While I'm not a fan myself, it's unfair to write him off like some are here given he's never been in the b2, gets fantastic audience support and lots of people love his dancing.

Mark is likely to go next and I accept that that's fair. But just speaking for myself, Mark is the only one of the four where I've gone and rewatched his dances again and again for the pleasure I get from them, especially the tango, M C Hammer and waltz. So for me he's the best.

You're not just speaking for yourself there I'm the same and I'd add the Salsa to that list (so sue me, it makes me smile ).

Well to be completely honest. I really think you should have put all 4 names.

'Best' is a subjective word based on lots of different things. For me Dance is not all about technique & I am not being difficult to stupid, just completely honest when I say that the ONLY man from the four left that I look forward to seeing & the only one I have or will vote for is Mark Benton.

No he isn't technically better than Ashley or Patrick but his sheer joy is infectious, so for me he is the 'best'.
I agree Jan. I voted for Patrick of the two names listed because "others" doesn't really seem to be a proper choice but I would say I've loved watching Mark dance just as much.

I voted other because both Patrick and Ashley :yawn::yawn:

I look forward to Mark, he might not be the best technically but he's the best showman by far

Ben has muscles and a pretty face
