Rearward, ho!
I wrote this a few days ago when it first came to mind. Today I saw the issue come up in a comic I regularly read, so I decided now was a relevant time to post it.
Occasionally, I actually get to go out to a club and enjoy myself. Unfortunately, there are a couple of things that will invariably happen. One of the nights, I will walk in on 18 and over night, which is when mostly non-drinkers are there. I feel bad even talking to people 8 years younger than me, and they have no idea what to do with me, since they are used to dealing with guys their age (read: idiots). Next is that i will be regularly groped by women who are passing by. I’m not really complaining, but i find it upsetting that a guy could never get away with this. Yes, I realized that when you tapped me that you needed to pass. Running your hand slowly across the small of my back, or performing the body brush is too obvious.
However, what annoys me the most is the dancing. I actually do go to the club to do a bit of dancing, and have fun. However, I have noticed a disturbing trend, which is not that disturbing when I think about it, but still says a bit about what’s happening in the world. Essentially, all dance has degraded to grinding:
What is worse is the one other thing that won’t stop happening. Now, many times, you’ve seen a girl dancing, and then all of a sudden, some sleazy-esque kind of sneaks up and starts dancing behind her, and slowly moves in. Normally this is met with rejection, and in some cases a mild level of disgust. However, I have recently noticed that a group of girls may be dancing, when one decided that dancing with me would be fun. However, rather than turn and face me, they kind of back towards me as though trying to hint that I should com u behind them.
I AM NOT A HORSE!!!
Damn it, turn and face me. There are other dances than grinding. Anyway, my legs eventually get tired from the repetitive movement.

HAHAHAHAH NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Agreed, I reckon. These ones (l, the real ones, not ze models) move very very well though. No space though!
Hi, Well, from an “oldie” I so totally agree. Laugh, at one time I won dance contests. Basically in the disco era and later.
Oh loved the bump actually the double bump. Ha HA. I actually would create my own routines including the swing and such. But I love just dancing slow with some nice mellow jazz tones. Maybe come back in style one day? I love the comic strip! Well, finally got connected at new home. My PC is still in storage and not sure if it will be working well. My daughter Mary is in Wales right now. Yea, she is to be returning Saturday. Well I am going to two step myself to bed. Still fighting this *** cold/cough/sneeze/cough/blow crap. But I do make my daily walk to and on the beach
. I hope you had a great Easter. Take Care, Sharon now on the IOP (Isle of Palms)
