The Odd Case

My fellow Adventurers!

What crazy adventurers have I been on!  In addition to exploring the New Zealand region, I have been spending a good deal of time exploring and investigating the people who reside in the city.  My findings thus far are that a greater part of the population consist of young adults who apparently spend most of their time in big fancy buildings either listening to their elders tell them about specific topics (more than once a week!), while also spending a good deal of time in a building they call the library, researching, writing and reading.  It is wonder they don't get sick of it!

Oh wait, yes, yes they do!  In fact to get away from all of it, and I guess as some sort of reward, they appear to really enjoy the night life and going to the "watering hole" to enjoy friends company.  I believe they also hope to find a mate there, but that will require further investigation.  However I have found their method of sizing up a person as a potential partner rather intriguing.  You see, the people will walk around town in their little groups (usually gender specified).  The males will go "hang" by the bar, while the ladies enjoy moving their bodies to the rhythm of music.  This is called dancing, or more modernly "booty shaking."  If the way they move intrigues a male, then he will approach her from behind and dance along with her.

This is rather different to what many people of a certain age are used to.  Back in the day, it was more common for the male to either approach from the front, or to simply ask a female to dance in the first place, with his attraction being her personality and of course her looks.  Today, this is not the case.  The male will just strut up from behind and, whether or not the female approves or likes the male, he will get right up close and dance along with her.

If the female was not intending to attract anyone, which is highly unlikely, or is not mutually attracted to the male, she will either trick him into thinking she is pulling a new move and spin away and get in the middle of her pack, where the rest of the females will keep her from the male.  Or depending on the personality, she will be abrupt, stop dancing, and walk away.  Either method ends up being awkward and unpleasant.

As I said before, this territory is new for me and I have yet to get more solid evidence and proof.  I hope to investigate this further within the next week or so, but for now my investigation of the day life of a kiwi is yet to be completed.

Until then, this is W.W.A. Rhondiggity, signing out.
