Morning darling
Ballet springs to mind. I would love to be able to do it well, but it's REALLY fucking difficult. And I was always the only bloke in the class, and everyone else was significantly younger and better than me.

What we need is a B3ta Ballet class! I wouldn't feel so inferior then. Kitty, Applebite and anyone with any previous dance or gymnastics experience isn't allowed to come.

too gay for words

Men and ballet don't mix.
Sorry if that sounds bigoted caveman, but I happen to agree.

I disagree
They look very sexy on their tights. Grrrr

You have no idea how good shape a man has to be in to be able to do Ballet well

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:41, Reply)

I do actually
it's hardcore.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:44, Reply)

Really is
Male Ballet dancers are just solid muscle from head to toe. And they can actually touch their toes, which remains an impossible dream for the likes of me
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:45, Reply)

really?
even I can touch my toes. and put my legs behind my head.

That's pretty impressive

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:46, Reply)

I could do it even when I was like 16 stone
nothing surprises a room full of people more than a fat bloke putting his legs behind his head
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:47, Reply)

I'm trying to think of something that would surprise a room full of people more than that
and am actually struggling to think of something within the reasonable boundaries of likelihood. It'd be more surprising if a Lion then bounded into the room and ate your head but I doubt there are a lot of them roaming the wilds of Exeter

Like the Gladiator?
There's more than one of him now? Or do you mean the Black Panthers? I had no idea the South-West was such a hotbed of militant political activism.

the south west is a hotbed of many things

I've only met one B3tan and he's met Ms Foxtrot
Excellent example, genius

I'm like that too
I can only get my legs as far as my ears, but being a lard arse it does really surprise people

That's why they're so sexy
The problem is that prob all of them are gay too. That's why I didn't even try with any. Waste of time.

Ahem

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:48, Reply)

I wouldn't be suprised if some of them get into it for the women.

(PsychoChomp, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:57, Reply)

This is very true
Men who take up Ballroom generally do so for one of three reasons; their girlfriend made them; they're gay; or to meet women.

Some of them actually want to, but they're a very rare breed

I'd like to know percentages
please.
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Wed 27 Apr 2011, 10:08, Reply)

How quickly do you want them?
Cos I'll probably have to make them up
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 10:17, Reply)

ASAP

(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Wed 27 Apr 2011, 10:37, Reply)

Um...
40% gay, 25% their girlfriends made them, 30% to meet girls, 5% just wanted to learn.

How's that?
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 10:50, Reply)

I agree with the fitness.
I also agree with the gayness.

it's bloody hard-core exercise is ballet
you've got to be seriously fit.

this is why i haven't done it since i was about 7.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:56, Reply)

Oh, dear
You should have said football or something like that.

I did ballet at school. I wasn't bad, I was awful, as at any other sport. No B3ta ballet class for me, thanks.
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:44, Reply)

me too. I remember at my recital when I was 7, I was at the BACK.
I was crushed.
(Poppet some assembly required., Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:45, Reply)

I used to be at the back too
And the teacher would tell me "it's better not to move, darling, than moving like that" with a big smile, before the function.
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:46, Reply)

I was in my junior school choir.
I was told to stand at the back, and mime. Bastards.
(Bear Pookie The Frankly Challenged. Halloween is coming to town., Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:50, Reply)

when I was doing GCSE music
our teacher told us that we had to join the choir. Went to one practice and the teacher was all "yeah, you don't need to be in the choir"
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:51, Reply)

A friend of mine
who couldn't sing, was told she was the most important person in the choir, as she had to sing with her heart.
(Aberracion Life's getting very complicated, but a lot of fun., Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:56, Reply)

Controversial.
How DOES one mime 'bastards', by the way?

With the exception of eyes that work,
I've never wanted anything so much as I did to be good at football as a kid. Unfortunately I was stunningly inept
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:46, Reply)

I bet I'm worse

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:46, Reply)

So why then
have you said you wanted to do ballet? Sometimes I think you're looking for abuse.

( Light In Chains maker of the ikea sofa, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:47, Reply)

Cos I gave up on football a long time ago
And it would have no useful purpose for me any more. As a kid I dreamt of being a professional footballer, but I think my moment to do so may have passed now. Whereas if I was good at Ballet it would be enormously useful for my Ballroom, in respect of balance, posture and flexibility.
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 27 Apr 2011, 9:50, Reply)

You'd probably be gay too
and you'd bee to worried about your body to enjoy a burguer. No, I like you as you are.
