I read somewhere that a man is physically not designed for it in the foot department, where a woman is.

Yes- with a little ballet training. A pirouette is a relatively basic ballet movement. It involves some balance and the ability to "spot" a focus point. In fact, some male ballet dancers can do as many as 10 or consecutive rotations in one piroutte! Mikhael Baryshnikov was famous for his astounding capabilities in this.
