>>I have just started dance lessons in a mostly female class, for the first week I went along in a T shirt and jogging pants but the lady in charge of the class told me that I would be better to wear a Leotard and dance Tights the same as the girls which I thought was a bit strange!.>>She said it was to help her to see my muscles working, and to support my male parts properly and help prevent injury to them!.>>I was kindly loaned a lycra Leotard and tights from one of the girls in class for the next weeks lesson and I must admit that I felt a lot more comfortable during the lesson but, this is obviously a girls leotard and tights and I feel quite embarrassed by my obvious bulge, and also if I stretch my arms up too high it hurts my testicles because, I presume, its a ladies garment.>>Are they available in a mens cut and size or do I just need a larger ladies size?.>>Its all very confusing.>>  >It's ok to wear a leotard, just wear it under not over your tights.  Most schools allow/ require black tights/white shirt or leotard.  Make sure if you wear a t-shirt to buy it small enough to show the line of you arms but large enough to tuck in your tights.  You also might consider the tank top (wife beater) style tees.  Now the most important point, buy a dance belt.  This will help conceal your bulging genitals or at least hold them steady.  This is perhaps the most import article of clothing for the male dancer.  I hope this all helps.

My advice is to scrap the leo entirely and just wear what 98% of all men at all times in every part of the planet wear to ballet class - black tights and a white t-shirt, with a dancebelt under your tights.  If you feel compelled for whatever reason to wear a leo, then please do not omit the dancebelt.

The dancebelt will give you the support you need to keep you from injuring yourself, but as to the bulge, get used to it.  There's no way you can help having one if you are a man who wears a leotard or tights, or both.  Your instructor has seen worse (or better, if you take my meaning) but she is not interested in seeing that portion of your anatomy, and it will probably come as no surprise to her or the other women in your class that you are male.
