[i]>I wasn't trying to be flip. >>I wear tights and a danebelt and find the support it gives to be more than sufficient. I also feel the wearing of cups might become an obstruction when performing certain moves. I for one, prefer the more natural look. >The natural look is great. But when I said I advocate a "foam cup" I was talking about a thin "foam," not any type of plastic. I've said before on this site that dancers should not wear any type of plastic cup, not even the soft plastic cup sold by BIKE. Plastic cups can be very dangerous. > >>I for one couldn't care less if a guy turned up to class with a box of tissues down his tights, but I doubt very stronly that the "professional" dancers resort to anything more than wearing a padded dancebelt should the need arise. >Don't use tissues! If you sweat, they get soggy! (Sorry, that might sound flip, but it's true!) > >>>I've also been in professional dressing rooms where guys have been forthright about "adjusting" their appearance, particularly for performances. I don't think its that strange! >>I didn't say it was strange. I just said it was unlikely. >I was using the word "strange" in the statistical sense, which means "not that common, but not uncommon." But I used it in a sentence with a negative. In short, I think it is "common." > >>Just like some ballerinas may decided to pad their bras for a fuller appearance, I don't find it offensive whatsoever, I just think it's not that common and often unnecessary, unless it was done to fit the role or character she plays. >The honest truth, in more than twenty-years of dancing, I've never knnown a ballerina to pad her bra. The look in ballet, thanks to Balanchine, has been a "flatter," thin look for the ballerina. I may not agree with this look. > >>What role or character in dance do you know that requires the male to augment the size of his crotch? >I have not found a role in ballet, or a specific character, where the supporting text of a dance says: "augment the size of crotch." HOWEVER, I have known costume designers who, possibly on the orders of the choreographer or other production staff, have made costumes specifically for that purpose. I supered in one such ballet. May-be I'll tell that story some other time.?????What are you two guys babbling about? "Natural look!" "Foam cups!" Stage directions about augmenting the size of the crotch!Just look at the photos of dancers. I think its clear that some dance with a little more in their dancebelts than just themselves. And SO WHAT! If the dancer thinks he looks better, and is more comfortable with the appearance, what's wrong with that? [/i]
