Great video Piers, that guy could move!!!
Why is it that so many couples cancel each other out? Often you get married people away from each other and they are personality plus, but put them together they become neutral and boring. One controls the other, no fun, no trust. Its sad to see.
I go on week long horse treks most years, into the high country of New Zealand. Its a week of fabulous scenery, through tussock and bog, up mountains and into valleys. Nights of song and dance and drinks. Quite hard yakka, but great fun. I love to observe people on these treks. They really come out of themselves. Women on the treks love what I call the cowboy ethic. The men really look after the ladies, and the ladies feel appreciated in a way they may not be in their ordinary life. People become very real when the going gets tough. Of course, attractions happen, partnerships crack, and others are formed, but not as often as you might think.
One interesting observation (and this is from the men!) is that women are tougher, have more endurance. We are more likely to dance all night, drink the men under the table, and be up riding all the next day!!!
I am noticing more and more that young people are more androgymous. Woman are accessing more of their capable maleness, and men allow themselves to be softer. Men and woman are more likely to be great friends and mates, than they used to be when I was a kid. I love my men friends, but I certainly don't sleep with them, would bugger up a good friendship!
