Hi evilcyn,
Sometimes I get lucky and a dancer like yourself prefers slow and sensual. :) In fact, one slow sensual dancer after I'd known her a while slowed it down even more, which surprised me that there was an even slower speed and I surprised her in that I thought it was fantastic. She says most customers seem to want speed and more speed. She added speed was better only in that it was a lot less personal.
She was also nice in that should could ignore the music. :) Seems like most dancers have to be in tune with whatever is played.
Hold her head indeed. :) Hunger is a bigger problem for me. A happy customer is NOT a happy meal.
I hadn't thought newness had anything to do with it, but then I learned that yes for some customers and dancers start out seeking speed and then get old. :) I always liked it very slow. One very young dancer explained she was going fast to save me money. She was happy to go slow and did a good job, but she thought it was a waste of my money. She was explaining that she could get me off in one song her way. :) (I think unfortunately she was probably correct.)
