[edit]

This article is so comically incorrect I don't want to change it. The line about it being popular within "12 to 22 years old, mainly because this music radiates an allurement to something forbidden and wicked." ignores the fact that most 16 year old Cubans have more sexual experience than your average 50 year old in the U.S.

The extensive errors arise from trying to apply a foreign values system to a place where people are culturally different. dmcmanam —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.44.3.164 (talk) 03:11, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do we really need this line...

[edit]

...sourced though it may be. This formerly was the ending of the article; I'm about to comment it out, but I've reproduced it here.

Not only does this new dance give the women the power dancing wise, but also gives them control on how they can please their man. The power this dance has over a man can can truly be shown when the male dancer was asked how this felt and he replied that, "Slowly, often you get to you are about to ‘come’ when it is happening, it is amazing". Unlike many other popular Hispanic dances, the women this time are the lead and lead with their hips and the male follows along to the beat of the music and also the beat of their partner.

I don't think I'm a prude, but this one step removed from OR, annecdotal at best, and rather unencyclopedic. Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 11:52, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We have:

- was this ever published ? If not, does it count as a good reference ? -- Beardo (talk) 22:18, 6 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The dance name is Perreo

[edit]

The dance name is Perreo not sandungueo. The referenced articles even call the dance by its correct name (Perreo), so why is the wiki article called sandugueo? This needs to be corrected.

Also the creator credited with DJ blass has no reference in the linked article. He is mentioned as a producer of a sub-genre of reggaton called sandungueo, NOT the creator of reggeaton or the dance perreo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.229.215.35 (talk) 14:08, 23 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
