For those who are curious about my handle (titter ye not) my name is Richard and I play the melodeon QED.

I would like to point out that although I miss my furry capers (too much donkey shaving?), upright capers are no problem even at my advanced age.....

Could that explain why Pele could never get an election. Its a bit rough for a brazilian me thinks.
Just had a re listen to Al's Hairy Mary again and the lyrics make a lot more sense. You are truly a man of the world Al.

Villain, not wanting to split hairs, I think this may be the answer to your question...................

From Wikipedia:
Brazilian waxing refers to a removal of almost everything, front to back except for a thin strip of hair on the pubis.[1][4][5][6][8] An extreme form of bikini waxing, it involves a complete removal of hair from the buttocks and adjacent to the anus, perineum and vulva (labia majora and mons pubis).[9][10] Waxes that completely remove the pubic hair are known as a full Brazilian wax, full Bikini wax, Hollywood wax or the Sphinx.[1][5][6] While mainly associated with females, genital waxing also has a male clientèle.[11]

The so called 'Full Brazilian waxing' is not particularly popular in Brazil, where it is sometimes considered extreme. For obvious reasons, there is no name or nickname for 'Brazilian waxing' in Brazil, since the English neologism was coined as a reference to the style or waxing technic used in the country. In Brazil 'waxing' is simply referred to as "depilacao", and has different names to distinguish both the area of the body where the waxing is performed as well as the amount of hair to be removed. The full Brazilian Wax is sometimes just refered as "complete groin".[9][12] The waxing style which leaves a small strip of hair is known in Brazil as cavado, a word that means "to miss peripheral material" and is also applied to small bikinis. In Portuguese, "to wax" is depilar, which means "to remove hair" regardless of the method.[13]

OOooowwww!

Now most of the Morris dancers I watched last night were bald......but that is probably a different issue!!!!
LOL

Brings a whole new meaning to waxing lyrical though!

The question states.......
is Morris dancing better than having sex?.....I have never seen Morris dance so couldn't possibly comment.

However, I saw Roger, Vic and several others (Trigg Morris and Tarka Morris) dance at Boscastle last night, If we are comparing the 2 passtimes, is watching dance on a par with voyeurism?

oops forgoat to paste the rest of it :-)

sticks together with other similar men; while this image may appear to be true in many cases, there is an awful lot of skill that goes into Morris Dancing routines, often accompanied by musical instruments that are difficult to play, such as the accordion, pipe and tabor.

Definition of Morris Dancing

The most common image of a Morris Dancer is that of a bearded, middle-aged man who likes the odd pint of ale or three before skipping around in white clothes and banging

In the words of the esteemed philosopher:

"It depends on how you define sex."

or something like that - I'd think.

(While it might be argued that it also depends on how you define Morris dancing, PLEASE don't anyone try to define Morris dancing for me. I don't believe I'd like being exposed to the details of deviant behavio(u)r of that extreme a sort.)

I think the quote was from the orchestral conductor Sir Thomas Beecham who said you should experience everything except incest and Morris dancing.
