fiddler Morris: Male or Female? (48) RE: Morris: Male or Female? 15 Sep 06


Yawn!

We had this back in the 70'2 and 80's. I was banned from admitting I was a founder member of a womens side at one ring based Ale in Kent! But that was a weekend that was!!!!

There are documents in C# whcih show women have always taken part to different degrees in Morris - cotswold included - for many different reasons if you follow the leads through.

Some traditions have not and some traditions uphold their tradition locally fine.

But as stated above we are 'a reincarnation of a past culture ' and if we get really fussy, the dance we do is just how it was on the day it was collected. It may have been different under a different squire the year before and then again the year after.

Lets rejoice and be merry!

Andy
