Hi Kazzart,
I was looking for some advice,as I see you take alot of dance classes.I would like to take latin dance or something,but was wondering what you find fun or could suggest.Baring in mind I’m quite shy,never been to a dance class before and don’t have anyone I could take along.Do I need to bring a partner?What places in London are good for learning dance?Any advice would be great.

Thanks.

As a woman I will say-women are crazy.Seriously,I don’t understand where the age,makeup and weight issues come from.Oh yeah I do-from other women.Us women perpetuate it amongst each other,that’s partly why I find womens magazines such bullsh*t,if a celeb is caught without makeup or carrying a few pounds,like 90% of the female population they are open to the harshest ridicule.When I have a daughter she will never hear me complain about my weight,looks or age just like my own mother never does.It does incredible things for a girls self esteem.

Well, that's right. Consider the following: "My grandmother used to make sure she always weighed her ‘certain’ special number throughout her entire life. But what she didn’t seem to realize was that without exercising and eating properly, (although she kept maintaining that number), she had 6 inches of hanging flab swinging on the backs of her arms and she always looked 9 months pregnant." It's just immature self-indulgence. I"ll admit that I've watched a number of those makeup vids on youtube. (In fact 4 of the top ten most subscribed gurus are makeup artists) But outside that context, I agree it's not too good. Women shouldn't hide themselves that way. It's fake.

@MrRe Cool. Yeh I mean I’m not against wearing make up.. its a fun thing do have sometimes, but there’s a difference between that and feeling like you have to constantly hide your face behind foundation, concealer, eye shadow, lipstick… etc etc.

@Harold I’ve learnt not to pay attention to weight. It’s an inaccurate measure as muscles weigh more than fat. I’ve always been quite “heavy” in kgs because of this. Doesn’t bother me though as I know I’m not fat.

You don’t need it. What I don’t understand is this whole thing about women and their weight. What’s the big deal? I mean if they actually took care of themselves physically, they wouldn’t care if people knew what they weighed. It’s a bunch of nonsense.

I don’t mind make-up, but I usually like girls without or very little make-up more. So “Yay!” from me.
