*768 - gender

Explorations (name of one of my dance improvisation classes) was bizarre today. I walked out of class feeling terribly disconcerted. There were (oddly enough) an equal number of men and ladies in class today, so we broke up into two groups by gender and did a loosely instructed improvisation without giving the men/women concept a thought. But the result was so starkly stereotypically masculine vs feminine that it kind of shocked me. And trying to reverse that result or watching people trying to reverse it was so awkward that it shocked me even more. I don't know. I guess I didn't expect gender stereotypes to be THAT obvious.
