‘Queer’ is a term that is now used to expand on the meaning of the gay liberation movement. Most crucially, it shifts the focus from sexuality to gender, questioning the gender binary which constrains the expressiveness of many people — gay and straight. A queer perspective is one which allows and encourages fluid and changing gender roles, images, and identities. Queer Tango is a home for gay and lesbian dancers, for women leaders who are breaking the rigid gender roles of the tango world – likewise men who like to follow, and for new ways of experiencing the roles of the dance, like swapping the lead.  Queer Tango is inclusive, which means that people are welcome to dance tango in any roles they want, including the traditional ones.
