The Captain is obviously a very busy man. He must have missed my posts. I'll try again.

If the side happens to be the only side in an area,and there is no female or mixed side, a dancer is being refused the right to dance.

To your knowledge, has this ever happened?

Some male morris dancers prefer to dance in men only sides. Some female morris dancers prefer to dance in women only sides. Some men and women prefer to dance in mixed sides. All categories are catered for. What is the problem?

I dont have a problem with anything apart from women being excluded by certain morris dance sides from dancing With them because of their gender.

Do you have a problem with men being excluded by certain morris dance sides from dancing With them because of their gender?
