Whats the deal with girls and boys getting so competitive at a feis?

what is the deal with girls pushin and shuvin you to win @ a feis? everyone should dance for the fun not for the trophys! isnt that why we all started dancing, to have fun? dancers should be one great big family not enemys! It is just pathetic!

When we're waighting in line i always try to ask the person with who i have to dance which way theyr dance goes to see that we dont bump into eachother.; ▶ Reply to This

But omg, some girls definitely do exagerate! The whole pushing, standing right in front of the other person, getting way to close, ... I can barely watch others doing that. I'd probably freak out if I were on stage with such a person. It surely spoils all the fun and should be punished or so. Luckily I haven't come across too many of those girls either.; ▶ Reply to This

But I think the judges notice such behaviours :) I got first at the two dances, muahaha :P; ▶ Reply to This
