No it isn't.  It may be stupid, senseless, idiotic, and futile, but it
isn't hypocritical.  Hypocrisy ( again from my Random House College 
dictionary) is defined as having desirable or publicly approved attitudes, 
beliefs, principles, etc. that one does not actually possess.

So, bemoaning a lack of dating material based on ANY criteria is not
hypocritical, but to go outside of one's own personal standard would be.

Well, that was one of my earlier efforts in tofu-based poetry (100% more
bean curd than regular poems).  I got better; really I did.  I'll prove
it--here's a more recent tofu poe....

 
         The Electricwok
 
 
  'Twas spill-ed, and my slimy toes
    Did slide and slipple in the muck;
  All messy were my eyes and nose,
    And on my carpet the tofu stuck.
 
  "Beware the electricwok, my son!
    The sauce that bites, the mustard with spice!
  Beware the sweet-and-sour pork, and shun
    The tofu cookie batter batch!"
 
  He took his spatula in hand:
    Long time the nonstick type he sought.
  So placed it he, by mushrooms three,
    And went to get the wok.
 
  Before the oven--gas--he stood,
    Castiron wok on burner of flame,
  Poured oil to coat the bottom good,
    As tofu burbled its own name.
 
  One, two!  One, two!  And stir and stir!
    The spatula went slither-splat!
  He fried it black, and on a plate
    He brought it, sizzling, back.
 
  "And didst thou disdain the electricwok?
    Bring to my table, my tofu and more!
  Stirfry today!  Tofu!  Hooray!"
    Then he spilled it on the floor.
 
  'Twas spill-ed, and my slimy toes
    Did slide and slipple in the muck;
  All messy were my eyes and nose,
    And on my carpet the tofu stuck.
 

Trygve   (There!  That should prove it.)

The inspiration for my earlier follow-up was an installment of the "Why
Things Are" column that appeared in _The Washington Post_ back on December 18,
1992, on Page D5.  (The article is accompanied by a line drawing of two baby
boys with the numbers 101 and 102 on their diapers.  Number 101 is saying "I
thought chicks liked guys with big rattles."  Number 102 says, "My fontanel
hurts.")

For a more accessible discussion of sex ratios (I'll get around to throwing
out those old newspapers eventually), see Chapter 9, "Battle of the Sexes,"
in _The Selfish Gene_ by Richard Dawkins.  This was worked out by a geneticist
named R.A. Fisher more than 60 years ago.  However, Dawkins' example is
elephant seals, not humans.  Elephants seals are extremely polygynous while
humans are only mildly polygynous.

This is a distinct possibility.  This is also usually discernable from
across the room.  What gets me is when the woman that I approach seems
to be open to conversation with me (and women have myriad ways of letting
on when they are not), but one of her girlfriends (usually a "motormouth")
keeps "cutting in" before you can complete a sentence.  It is one thing
when the one that you want to meet "shoots you down" (and I believe that
every heterosexual male on the planet has experienced this at one time
or another.... it just goes with the territory), but quite another when
one or more of her girlfriends conspire to "block".  I avoid most of this
by steering clear of women in groups of more than two.

At least with FORTRAN you can write expressions.  And you don't have to

Another vote for the dancing scene.  Things did not turn out so well this
New Year's Eve for me though.  Actually I was pleasantly surprised to see
a very attractive MOTOS turn up.  He hadn't been to the dance in months.
I did a contra with him and found out he'd moved to the Dallas area.  A
disappointment but he really dropped my jaw later when we were waltzing.
My previous contact with him was, in my mind, fun flirty stuff in the line
and not much other conversation.  I asked him what kind of work he did that
it sent him to Texas and he says, "I hadn't ever told you what I do?", and
he's looking a little odd.  I searched the memory banks and told him no, that
I had no idea what he did.  He then managed to stammer out,

"I'm working as a missionary",
"I work at a mission",
"I'm a priest".

Yeah, Catholic.  Bummer.

I don't think that's necessarilly so--if the person in question refused
to recognise his/her role in the lack of acceptable mates, then you might
have a good case, but if someone had requirements essential for him or her
to prefer a relationship to no relationship and admitted that those 
requirements were rather restrictive but still complained about it
occasionally, I wouldn't see that as being hypocritical.

Of course I may be a bit biased in this--I'm quite picky myself, but you
don't generally hear me complain about it since it doesn't particularly
bother or distress me at all not to be in a relationship.

Sabreurs.  Please!  :-)  You're right about the "nice" part.  Fencing being a
very personally competitive sport and supposedly a sport for "the gentry," I've
found from having been a fencer that most of them are arrogant beyond words.

Why should sabreurs be any more scary than either those fencing foil or epee?
Outside of the huge bruises they sport after a bout, that is.  Having fenced
sabre as my primary and only weapon, I remember the pain...

Uh...ballroom dance is only good if you can find someone nice to go with you.
Most of the people interested in ballroom dance are not below 30. Those below
30 seem to consider it too wimpy and would rather dance the modern things like
hip-hop.  And the below 30's consider it too close.  After all, you've got to
be in contact with your partner to be able to transmit your intentions as to the
direction you'll be heading next through body and arm contact.  Some women
can't handle the fact that the man's right leg is between hers and her right
leg is between his (with the obvious results that entails!!!)  :-)
