Fast Food Commercials

A user states: My ten year old sister refused to order a bacon cheeseburger, her favorite sandwich, because "only boys can eat that". Society has come a long way from the stereotypical 1950's gender roles, and while we aren't /quite/ there yet, we're pretty darn close.

I find it really fun and physically challenging and it is not as though I plan on performing these moves for the world. However, some people find the classes demeaning. -ST user
