>My girlfriend is a dancer. She has tried to get me to take classes with her, and wear the tights.She showed me this forum to convince me that many men take ballet.I believe that everybody has a right to do what they want.But I feel as if I am entering a female domain, with most classes I have observed being mostly women.While many of the moves are very athletic, many of the hand movements and other movements are very feminine in nature.I would rather take an aerobic type class with men in the class with a more athletic makeup.I also feel that tights are for women.I kind of think that women should do female things and men do male things. I do not have anthing against those men , who do ballet, but I would rather do other things than prancing along the floor.[/i]
