Poster’s comments:

1)       Many young males would rather break a bone than go to cotillion training.

2)      Cotillion training provides advantages in later life to those who go through the training.

3)      The training is not all “dancing”, though that does occur, too.  It is also training in the other social graces like how to fold a napkin when serving a drink to a lady.
