     In fairness to women, I've seen men behave just as poorly here in
Phoenix when the ratio is such that there are way more men than women
(which happens from time to time here).  The same nonsense, guys who
are already dancing picking off women before they even leave the
floor, instead of letting somebody else have a turn.  You pretty much
have to be a totally aggresive jerk to get a dance, hovering around
the women like a seedy horndog waiting to pounce, something which I
for one refuse to do.
