Son, you just have to go out there with that freakishly huge bulge& not worry about it. It's just one of the many funny weirdnessesabout ballet. When I saw my first ballet as a teenager, I was horrified at theway those parts that I thought should be discreetly tucked awaywere allowed to protrude in such an embarrassing manner. But I wasyoung, prudish, & homophobic in those days. I got over it; you'llget over it, too, in time. (And I should mention that some dancershave not been above padding their dance belts in order to make itlook as if they had, well, more than they had.) There was a riotously funny thread titled "Bulge" on the alt.arts.ballet newsgroup a few years ago. The opening post read, : How come all the male ballet dancers seem to have huge bulges : in their crotches? I mean, do they stuff socks down there or : what? I've always wondered. ...& the merriment went on for about 66k of posts. If you canretrieve it via Deja, you'll get a few laughs. Tom Parsons
