I have no issue with your comments whatsoever. It was more a comment on the reactions of some forum users to innocuous questions

Ah, I understand now. Thanks for replying and sorry for the "now hang on a cotton pickin' minute"

You're been here for 5 minutes. How many accounts have you had?

True. But i also think where you source the dancers might be important. All the dancers seem to be European or American and that's not including Latin America...

I read an article once which said that, particularly in the US, many black kids never learn to swim.

I keep forgetting the couples there so many and I swear for half a second I saw her and Anthony in the highlights tonight and thought OMG some female pro has overdone it on the fake tan. Don’t stone me, she is gorgeous by the way.

I've only had one account here, and I don't know what the time frame has anything to do with it. My experience with a similar post happened in the past...what more is there to it?

It's linked to poverty. Less well equipped schools and less private pools and less private lessons. That's a social thing like there are less black tennis players as its a class dominated sport. However obviously that has less to do with dancing.

IT wasn't a similar post at all, the problems with your post were explained to you many times,

As a discussion, I think Oti is fabulous as a proportion of black Latin and ballroom dancers has her presence skewed the figures so that she gives a false positive view of the number of black Latin and ballroom professional dancers?

Are we going to talk about Karen here, her ethnicity is interesting, coming from Venuzuela with her colouring do we count her as white?

So with Janette as well have they skewed the figures of Latin American professional ballroom dancers?

Quite frankly I think that ethnicity has very little bearing on the show, in Oti I think they have found a fabulous dancer whether she is black white blue or polka dotted.

I hereby lodge my objection to the under representation of polka dotted pro dancers on Strictly

I look forward to a white person on Nigerian TV.. any program will do. Here`s hoping

And the problems with your responses were explained too, so I guess we both learned something

Even fewer black figure skaters (especially men). No-one is stopping them though.
