Dancing Bears, Prancing Boys

There is an ongoing superiority-over/revulsion-to/dismissal-of so-called twinks and “boys” on the 'dancingbearssf' yahoo group. They don't like boys, they like M-E-N. They don't like muscle, unless it's properly trussed up in a certain amount of gristle.

I can understand this, I suppose. I mean, what's not to make fun of?

A self-selecting sub-group of a sub-group of the general population, who dictate terms to one another on such topics as where and when it's ok and not ok to cut or trim the hair anywhere on one's body; who prefer to stick to their “own kind”; who exhibit a set of easily observable common, individual behaviors within the group; and who look down their noses and point at other groups who blatantly contradict the prevailing conduct they themselves have espoused?

Disapprobation tickles.
