How come many guys don't like to watch things like figure skating, or "Dancing With the Stars", or "So You Think You Can Dance", etc.?
I don't think these things are inherently girly, and my dad has always enjoyed watching those shows. (Granted, he was the only male in the house, with all daughters.)
So I'm just curious.
Oh, and for "American Idol" -- does that audience tend to be more gender-balanced? or is it still more of a girl-thing to watch it?

Guys who like to dance (like me: I love to dance even though I suck at it!) like those dancing shows.
When I was a little boy I liked to watch figure skating for some reason -- but among many, many other things.
Never liked the style of most opera music, but the necessary skill can't be denied, either.
Opera could actually be a very manly thing, couldn't it? I mean, like a Baritone and Bass opera!

i understand what you're speaking approximately. in simple terms tell him which you're taking no area in rap way of existence and if he has a subject with that than that's obtrusive which you 2 are not properly matched. It sucks that human beings of alternative races assume that in simple terms because of the fact you're black which you're immediately assume to love rap or yet another black artist good away. and please do all black women a want and not in any respect willingly pay attention to little wayne from now on, he sucks besides.

Dancing and opera are not bad in and of themselves. The shows you mentioned are glorified knockoff versions - just fronts for making money with no real respect or appreciation for the arts.
Its possible that most guys see through the BS and refuse to stand for it.
Give me the Nutcracker Ballet anyday over that crap.

Because it's so incredibly boring. Men don't watch that. We watch Spike or the History Channel.

They are more girl things but, good opera or dance to one interested in the performers or performance does not have to be just a "girl thing".

It is painfully boring... the only reason to watch a dance show is to check out the women's bodies... and you can do that at the nudie bar and get drunk at the same time...

I don't know on that. Me I just cant get into that sort of thing.
But the same can be said about girls. How come most girls don't like to watch sports, or let there man watch it?

I can't watch it, it's like having a nail driven in my head. But I think it's cute that all women get so excited about it. I think they get to live a little fantasy through it.
