But now my nephew feels he's a freak. so here's my story>My nephew(10) started taking ballet with 8. About two years ago, I saw him, sneaking at my laundry, i thought he was curious so I did not mention anything, but I would periodically check, and quickly discovered that my tights were misplaced and stuff like that. Things went along unchanged for a few months, and then I noticed one of my leotards was missing, i could find it nowhere. That night I could see the outline traced by the bottom of the leotard under his pants. So i decided put an icebraker, i mean, i've been into ballet my whole life, guys wearing tights is no big deal for me, is just clothes. If he enjoys wearing them it's O.K. i just wanted to being supportive. i told he if he wanted he could take some ballet lessons. I seemed to open a gate. At first he was upset, but he finally told me that he could try. So we went to the store and bought tights for him. He tried to act as if he was confused about how to put the tights on, but he managed. His teacher said that a T-shirt and a jogging short would do, at his ballet lessons the uniform for boys are black tights and a white T-shirt.>My first reaction was, that my nephew wants to stop taking ballet. But after his first ballet training he become more enthusiastic about wearing tights. And since this experience he is wearing tights at the whole day. If he stands up in the morning he is pulling up his tights and in evening he tskes them off. If I asked him why he is doing this, he said that he feels good if he is wearing tights. Hewears any kind of tights and if the temperature is not so low he wears also nylon pantyhose at home. >Now, we practice together, he owns severals pairs of tights, leos and unitards, also he asked if he can get some of my undies, and some tutus,and practice skirts, he maybe some day will dance in pointe. But he feels he's the only one feeling this way, could you tell me how did you start wearing ballet dancewear? so i can show him some of your experiences. Thanks> Kisses/LailaPlease !
