Answer 1

C. Porque era un baile provocador.

Answer 2

Right answer: porque era un baile provocador  

 

Tango as music was played mainly by flute, violin and guitar; then the bandoneon was incorporated and replaced the flute. In addition, it should be noted that at the beginning tango had nolyrics, but when the first lyrics appeared they were obscene.

The tango was born in Argentina and in its beginnings it was danced in brothels or among the popular class of society.  

It was not accepted by society because it was a provocative dance; it was danced between men and women with tightly embraced bodies and that was a cause of scandal for the time.

However, by the 1910s it began to be accepted and is now considered a fundamental part of Argentine culture.
