the male dancer
written by Chris at on 04.06. at 04:33:00 - as answer to: Re: Does Ballet Training Make Boys Feminine? by wlliam Just from personal experience, boys are gay or have feminine tendencies to look to dance, especially ballet. When I was very young, I knew I was different from other boys, I like to skip and dance to music and hated PE. When I saw Notcracker the first time, I knew I have to study ballet, being raised in Asia, and the stigma attached to any boy that is interested in dance, especially ballet, automatically means I am a sissy, or gay. I admit I am both, and I treasured the years that I was the only boy in classes full of girls.However, since I came to US when I was 16, I learned not all boys were gay, at least in my classes in N.C. My experience was that out of the nearly 10 boys in my grade (RAD Advance), 2, including myself, was (and still are) extremely effeminate, openly gay and strictly bottoms; We wear pink slippers with ribbons, leotards over tights, thong ones too! We take intensive pointe lessons (I started pointe at 12 in Asia); and 3 or 4 are bisexual and definitely 3 are straight, they chase ballerinas like bi-boys chasing our bottoms. So there you go, my point is most boys do not become gay after they start ballet, but there is a very high probability that gay boys will be attracted to this dance disclipine, at least in U.S. Answers to this message: |
