I knew a male principle dancer with one of the two major companies in NYC. He told me as much. He said it was the best profession to be in for meeting beautiful women.

Male ballet dancers have to be able to pick up a female dancer and toss her in the air. That requires tremendous upper-body strength, with huge muscles.

And a surprising number of male ballet dancers are heterosexual.

Unlike some I think that The Who's early stuff was their best.

Agree totally!

First of all, a three year old boy doesn’t know what girlish things are. And putting him in ballet to teach him anything will teach him.......ballet, not girls things. Try to tell the men of the Bolshoi Ballet in Russia they are too masculine and not capable of determining what is masculine or feminine?. Men like Mikhail Baryshnikov or Rudolf Nureyev when they were alive.

And just wait until his friends hear about the dandelion crown. He better be tough, cause he is going to get insulted continuously until he has to fight back to prove what little manhood a three year old has.

He hasn’t got a chance.

At age 3.

If I had any hope for the future of this country I would be eagerly waiting for this woman to be arrested for child abuse and thrown in jail.

With this mom, the best the boy can hope for is to grow up to be a lesbian.

Or to grow up to hate his mother.

Thanks to both of you for speaking sense about boys an ballet. It drive me nuts when the pro-gays try to co-opt ballet for gays. Ballet is not a homosexual art or sport. We should not surrender it.

Gee, she couldn’t just SAY, “James, don’t be rude. There’s nothing wrong with boys thinking flowers are pretty. Flowers are for everyone to enjoy.”

What a dolt.

My wife wanted to send my son to Irish Dance school.
Not just no...Hell no !

My son loved baseball and I suggested that if he wants to play every day...be a catcher.
So instead of Irish tap shoes, he wore catcher’s gear.
Ultimately became a darn good pitcher, tore a labrum and that was that.

In light of what Michael Flatley has done with Irish dance, I probably should have let my wife have her way :)

She should be jailed for child abuse which is exactly what this is.

Exactly my thought.

I had 4 boys, and I know exactly what you are talking about. They are just drawn to machines — the louder the better.

Never had one kiss a truck bumper, though, too cute. Although, I would not be surprised to learn that my eldest kissed his jeep on more than one occasion as an adult.

I just got a chuckle yesterday remembering this one again. All of my boys were born in the 1970s. Among their toys was a Fisher Price bus — a family van, I suppose — with a family consisting of the father, the mother, a son, and a daughter. At that time, the Fisher Price people were all just wooden cylinders with some painted on features, and the females had plastic long hair. Can’t remember the mother’s hairstyle, but I remember that the girl had yellow pigtailed hair. The figures could be placed in holes in the van.

One day, I overheard Son #1 and Son #2 at play when they were about 4 1/2 and 2 1/2, respectively. The younger one was objecting to having to play with the female figures. I don’t recall what was said between them, but, not too long after that, I came across the Fisher Price family. Apparently, the females had undergone an early version of “gender reassignment”, as their plastic hair had been partially bitten off, and they were now, I assumed, acceptable as male figures.

This is child abuse. Report her to social services.
