>Hey Steve!!>I agree with you attitude, that erections are normal responses of our antatomy, and we definitely should not be ashamed of them.>But I have to argue with you....dancers and athletes need to wear some support for their genitals. You may not realize this until the day you get "hit," be it an outside force or your own movements.>I have a very tight fifth position. When moving across the floor, be it jete assemble or tour jetes, I know that without support my genitals would get caught in my crotch. I couldn't do any scissor-type movements without support. Therefore I wear a dancebelt to keep them up, out of the crotch.>Please consider this advice! BalletMaster>>>Where I take dance class, the facility where I am at also offers aerobics, Jazzercise, Tae Bo, yoga, acrobatics, etc. I try to attend each of these classes at least once a week except for the acrobatics class. In each of the classes I wear a nylon/lycra full unitard or bicycle shorts or dance tights. I also wear a leotard and tights on occasion. While wearing any one of these clothing items my penis either is facing up (erect) or it sticks out (bulge). In each of the classes there are more wowmen than men and more girls than boys and I have never had anyone say anything or laugh at my outfit's or say anything about what they see. It is normal for a penis to be erect when surrounded by tight fitting clothing or to be bulging. This may be one of the reasons why a dance belt is needed, but I don't wear one because I am not ashamed if I see another lady staring. Also there have been times when the instructor will call on me for a demonstration for a routine in anyone of the classes and I will have to stand in front of 10-30 wowmen. I damn well know that they can see that I have an erection or they can see my bulge. Even when I need to have a partner for the routine, she can deffinitely see something. Whatever can be noticed, I don't care it is just part of the male being. If a bulge is noticeable or an erection is too, I don't do anything about it.[/i]
