Embrace?

edit

In pizzica, partners do not embrace themselves. On the contrary: even when the man circles the woman and stretches his arms towards her (which is by no means necessary), he remains at arm's lenght. You can see this clearly in many videos on YouTube. After all, embracing would not have been considered appropriate among the traditional and very conservative-minded peasant families of old Apulia - MicheleM —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.65.202.244 (talk) 15:20, 20 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
