This is very interesting, because I often hear women complain of new
male dancers leading never ending back ochos.

I never had a problem with a dancer at any level going on automatic back
ochos, and as I think about this, I remember another post from a few
weeks ago:

Should the frame be weak or firm?
I think here rests the answer, if your frame is not firm and commanding,
then the follower has no direction as to what to do.  This is not the
follower's fault, but the leader's.  This is true in close or open
embrace.
