Seeing this article on Twitter, my first reaction was "yeah, it's an art form I just can't imagine being interested in. I can understand girls being attracted to the prettiness, or I guess girliness, of the classic ballerina get-up; but how does any man or boy, straight or gay, get attracted to it?"
And then I realised, I don't have any idea about the history of this artform and how the look of "classic" ballet became solidified into its current state. I mean, it couldn't have sprung fully formed into that look and style.
One day, when I've done that long promised household sock audit, I might look into it.
