I must admit I am with you there...I hate to see them go but love to watch them walk away....which reminds me of another reason to practice in a Sangha: If you are on your game it should not take you long to find the cushion in the Zendo that will put you behind a woman who has (as they say now a days) "back". Then you can spend 10 mins each kinhin period contemplating impermance with your eyes properly averted while the woman in front of you walks away..very very very slowly. After a few periods of Zazen the whole world seems bright and clear...if you were out in a field you would note the absolute beauty of the wildflowers, in the Zendo you will fully appreciate each flex and jiggle, a phenonmenon that is only multiplied with the length of time you spend in your celebate practice. This gives you the opportunity to practice the old meditation on how the flesh will rot and fall from the bones so what you are really seeing in front of you is just rotten flesh turning to bone turning to dust on the way into being....which, if properly attended to, will make the fading beauty in front of you as intoxicating as any cherry blossom. Now that you are in the proper frame of mind to appreciate this delicate beauty, you can extend this practice into your daily life, and make your practice of driving the women away into a more enriching way of life.
