[i]I have to tell you, it's really difficult to meet and build friendships with other male dancers, no matter what the area.I'm in Chicago. I've passed the plateau of my ballet, and age takes it's toll. I have a few young male friends in ballet, but, on the whole, guys in ballet may be too competitive to become friends. Even though I'm not physically able to do many different solos and pas-de-duex's anymore, when I tell the younger guys what to do and how they should do it (what I call it "coaching") the competitive nature raises conflicts.There are also conflicts with basic interests...guys really into ballet for a professional career often don't want to talk about ballet when outside of class and studio. There's also the conception of competition....most guys into ballet don't want to have to "compete" with other guys interested in ballet.I hate to sound so negative. If you're looking for male friends into ballet, look for guys who see ballet as an interest, not a profession.I think you'll find some of us here (on the web) with interests in ballet, but not so deeply into ballet that we can still be friends. As I said above, I'm in Chicago, a bigger city than Minneapolis. But I have to tell you the truth...I have not been able, despite going to all the studios in Chicago and really searching for a friend, to find a guy who's intersted in ballet and friendship.I have had a few really hot ballet guys who are looking for a sugar-daddy, but that's not friendship.If you'd like to correspond, please email me.balletboy [/i]
