Ex 1 is fun when you're RP'ing that you're drunk. In those cases I wish we could purposely fall.

One other note... If they worked correctly... I'd dance Lyrical2 almost exclusively. I love the way that dance looks.

Amen! Same here. I absolutely LOVE the Lyrical dance, it's my favorite, but it's hard to time the flourishes right so that I'm continually doing a flourish and not the base dance... because we all know how that looks. >.<
As for the ex3/ex4 debate, I love them both really. I LOVE the first flourish on exotic 3 (the one that looks very seductive and has that neat little spin), but my hubby adores the second flourish in ex4... the one that has me down on the floor arching my back. Men.

I'm in the same boat as a lot of you. I like the way Ex3 looks, and Ex4 has its moments. I think Ex2 is good for just kinda "chillin" while I'm dancin and the music is slow like ceremonial or ballad.
My favorites are poplock2, popular2, and lyrical2 though. I admit I am a big fan of formal2 as well, hehe. Now if only those base dances would be fixed.
Oh, and I hate the jiggle, makes me look like a belly dancer.

*meekly raises his hand*
I like to jiggle occasionally, I think it's fitting in certain instances. (I also like to torture other people by making them bandflo jiggle, but that's another kind of enjoyment
). I never claimed to be in my right mind, on the other hand.If I had to pick between ex3 and ex4, I'd go with ex4 because the turns in ex3 base seem to be a bit too quick, not exotic enough. But I'm quite a fan of the mix that Esharra performs with me

The jiggle is a Rhythmic move. If you don't believe me (Some don't) I'd be more than happy to demonstrate. The timing is a little tricky because the start and end is slightly the same, but the actual jiggle part is identical.

I like exotic 3 a lot. Naturally I don't like being limited in flo's....but I really like the "balancing" flo where I stand on one foot, and cross the other in front....for me it looks like an skill of strength and grace, moving into it slowly and holding it.

Like a lot of people, I have a macro that uses a combination of exotics 2, 3, and 4, so that it looks like I have a varying dance. I am still working on the exotic 3 whip around problem in timing though. 
But, if I had to choose just one. It's a tough decision. I think I like exotic 4 better because it does just look a little bit more masculine. And, I really like the arched back move. As I was levelling up dancer I kept wanting to do the arched back ever since I saw it. When I got exotics 1 and 2, I was disappointed I didn't have that flo yet. So, just for that, I have to go with exotic 4.

Flo 2, isn't it?
Flo 3 in Rhythmic is Jiggly. 2 is the one that starts to turn, then returns you to forward-facing back in the opposite direction.
