"Young Man, there's no need to feel down." Is the first line of a song called "YMCA". It even has a dance tied to the song.

There is a song called "YMCA" by The Village People... the joke includes lyrics from the song and the humor rests upon this reference.

I often wonder how the Village People met and formed a band. They come from such diverse and varied backgrounds.

It was a play on words
Down = duck feathers
Petting the duck = Syndrom.
It was my attempt to be clever. Not to put down anyone.

iirc it was a casting call.
Someone already had the idea and songs in-hand, just needed a group of men who fit the bill and could dance passably.

Edit: feeling “down”. Thank you Kcnflman.
