But isn't the whole club scene one big show? We dress ways to attract attention or to signal some kind of interest. We approach each other in ways to make an excited spark if we can. In a sea of 100 bodies, if I want to go home with someone don't I need do something to get that first spot of interest to establish that *I* should be the one you talk up later?
It is a little sad, sure, but I also see it as a natural gambit in the larger game. Sacrifice a pawn to set up the queen....
