Snooker

I'm watching the world snooker championships at the moment, I watch it every year, I consider it one of the signs of spring. Human beings buck the trend in terms of sexual differentiation. With most mammals, fish and birds, the male is the flashy one and the female is most of the time, drab. With western society for many years this situation has become reversed, the female is the showy one. The male flogs his himself via his skill set, hence the sober grey suit.

I think a crucial difference between snooker and tennis, is how few women play televised snooker.

For all those who do not live in England and cannot watch UK TV, here is a link, to this exposition of male beauty the BBC is also streaming matches live.

Regards

Peter
