written by Bob at on 07.11. at 02:48:05 - as answer to: Does Ballet Training Make Boys Feminine? by Snow King at Gender is a social construct. Whether or not you've become more "feminine" with ballet all depends on how you choose to define "feminine." You will get whatever answer you wish from the question. More importantly is to think about what it means to be masculine. I would caution you against definining masculinity in terms of "not feminine", because then you will find yourself holding back from all sorts of things in ballet class that you think are "too feminine", which will ultimately undermine your training. Just enjoy it and be yourself. Answers to this message:
