You should have seen these dancing boys. They definitely were NOT feminine at all. On the contrary they were very maculin, wild, energetic and strong. Body love to dance as long as you don't put them into classes with pink tutu girls.

>>>Boys who do ballet are gay. No if's, and's, or but's about it.>>Not sure I can agree totally.But having taken ballet classes as a boy I definately did become more feminine in my behaviour and attitudes.I was the only boy in a ballet class of over 25 girls dressed in pink tights and leotards.I wore black tights(my older sister's!) and a leotard.I had long hair.>Yeah, if you want to be a feminine male then sure Ballet helps.  If you have a Dad that is afraid of you being too feminine, that is up to him and he has a right to his oppinion.  Ultimately all of us are to blame for the current status of the male ballet dancer's image.  The way ballet is taught from an early age has a lot to do with it, and lets face it, how many boys had the luxury of having a male dance teacher when they started?  If there were more boys in a ballet class perhaps there would be a reason for having more male ballet teachers and ballet for the male might evolve into something a little more masculine.  I suppose that would make your dad a little happier.  But forget about that, just do the dance that makes you happy, the rest will take care of itself.
