      • Shabby treatment of women by men in the 60s
    • Overview
      • Confrontational to other men
      • Unpredictable behaviour
      • Owning territory
      • Girls dance provocatively for attention
      • Men more concerned about competing with each other in the looks department rather than to catch a girl
    • Structure
      • Dance opens with the rooster strut
      • Dancer sleeks down hair and adjusts tie
      • Lyrics correlate with movement - on 'dogs begin to bark' he acts like a dog, putting his hands up as though they were paws, and then he rolls on his back with his limbs in the air
      • Woman enters upstage and the men at the back, one by one, reject her
      • Full company walk on with different paths, being at a right angle or parallel to the front of the stage so that at the end, most are lined up at the back but there is one couple at the front
