In the bohemian district of Almagro in Buenos Aires, the wistful notes of the tango classic “Vida Mía” drift out a window of a small cultural center. Inside, on a makeshift dance floor, couples move carefully, studying their steps as they dance in the arms of another. All the pairs are same-sex or nongender-identifying: from slickly dressed silver-haired pensioners to artistic university students clothed entirely in black. Some dance with friends, others with lovers. Each individual in a couple takes turns leading the dance as music floats over the scene, its lyrics telling a story about love and loneliness, breathing and embracing. This is Milonga Tango Queer La Marsháll, a biweekly tango event where an hour-long class open to dancers of all levels is followed by a milonga, an informal tango gathering. It is one of the dozens of queer tango gatherings that take place across the Argentine capital, which proudly boasts at least one queer tango event per day. Milonga Queer La Marsháll is a mixture of two long-standing queer tango events: La Marsháll is one of the oldest, which began in 2001 as a milonga specifically for gay men, led by Augusto Balizano; La Milonga Queer, meanwhile, was founded by Mariana Docampo, who began tango classes for lesbians around the same time before establishing her ongoing event in 2005.
