This reminds me of when I learned to dance Salsa, and more recently, Tango.
It's a far more public failure than writing a blog post. Your body – the very thing that experiences the embarrassment of failure – is your instrument when dancing. To add insult to injury, you're failing in front of a never-ending stream of women.
But, thankfully, sucking is temporary and life is long.
EDIT: I'd like to add that life is much, much, better when you know how to dance.
Yes. I had a similar experience when I tried to learn to dance, some time ago. The "right, now go and dance freestyle with Random Attractive Woman #1" moment was particularly terrifying.
