I was searching for a comment about thissss, omggg 😂✨✨

Omg yas XD

Exactly 👌🏻

Karolina Nowakowska IT WAS AT 1.3k LIKES AND CLICKED THE LIKE AND IT WENT TO 1.4k pretty coooooollll

Guess the dance-bell is a sports-bra for the male parts.

900th like ^^

He's a real stereotype breaker

Is he gay? Does he say it in the video? Cuz that breaks the point he's trying to make a little bit lmao

@@soullessangel207 He said that more gay/bisexual male ballet dancers would increase his dating pool

angel bangtan He has said it in a previous video

A big upside 😂

That's my point! You want a straight son put them around pretty girls.

@@slothmaster101 aww I just want my son to be happy and acceptance of fimself, he could be anybody, gay or straight. And that is not true that being around pretty girls make boy straight. Some man just love other male and that is just ok :')

@@kamilkonak6652 Well, if your son turns out gay, you can just put him in football instead so he can be happy.

Ah, a good Karen✨ (jkjk many people called Karen are great)

Hi fellow directioner!! 👋👋

Lucia Machado omg heeey💗

Only around 11 or 12% of bi men are fully out, from the general USA/UK population - say multiple surveys. Fix biphobia and you fix that problem. Gay people need to stop with their biphobia and perpetuating the myths they think about bi people. Straight people too of course, but it hurts worse from gay community (and there's just as many bi men as there are gay men).

I SEE LOUIS TOMLINSON I PRAISE U 🙇‍♀️😭🥰😼👼😍🧚🏼‍♀️✨

I love your profile picture

The fems are so loud that's why. They're the ones being represented on TV shows and stuff. And the hate masc gays. They call you "straight act" and kinda sideline you like "yOu'Re NoT gAy EnOuGh" or you're pretending to be someone you're not just let loose.

@@natep6729 yea the media loves to emphasise the "gay man who doesnt act according to the gender norms of a masculine person bc thats funky and quirky" cliché

Meanwhile there are so many gay people you wouldn't really tell. Sexuality isn't something you "see" that's the point

@@natep6729 Not true lmao. Its because society magnifies anyone or anything "out of the norm" if you dont "look straight" you stand out. Archaic social stigmas and dichotomies.

@@natep6729 literally WHERE?! Every movie or series I've watched the gays who are in a relationship are always masculine.

M. Ch. very true for me at least, looking blasé while wanting to lay on the floor and scream is truly a ballet skill 🥴

yep. pretty much

Definitely! My non-ballet friends think I need to go to the doctor and stop dancing for a few weeks when they look at my feet the day after an intense pointe class...😂

Tony De Rexxo For bdsm especially 😉 (sadomasochism specifically)

Yup

I am the same way as your brother and I think it’s too late now that I’m 14. I started musical theatre at nine and tapping every once in a while isn’t really helpful. I’m dancing somewhat for the first time in the nutcracker Arabian scene but I’m really bad at it

Please be encouraged to dance! My son who's 7 does ballet and he loves it so much. Dont let fear stop you boys!

Bravo 👏! Correct answer!

But then again, ballet would make you strong enough to drop kick the haters :)

Do ballet, do self defense ie judo only girls will bother you in the right way ! Do it! it's a great experience and surprisingly the discipline carries over in life. Good luck!

Same reason what's more gay than a rugby scrum!

like it’s not our birthday but thanks anyways🤭😝

Y e s

Thank you, I thought I was the only one checking him out.

fr I just 😳😳

nah thats the whole bakery

Amen. Is he the coolest or what?

it happens

ballet slang right there :D

I love it! :D

Why biscuit?

I don't know. "Firm, juicy, cooters" is up there. 🤣

No way I see tristan foot as a bisuit, he has beautiful arches 🥺

Yeah exactly i used to do ballet and i remember starting to get into it seriously around 11 (7h a week kinda thing) and i felt so inferior to all the other kids who were almost born into it

I started at 5 and still felt like I started “late.”

Lilah Helmer oh cool! I took summers off and usually did gymnastics during summers!

Yeah same here!! I'm not a dancer, but I'm a violinist, and I started when I was 8, almost 9 years old, where most other people started when they were 2 or 3!!!! It feels really nice seeing other people live out their passion and starting out not as young as most seem to be

i’m 16 and i just started 6 months ago, i feel this

FEMale - FEMenine. MAle. MAsculine. Etymology.

Oh hun just try wearing a binder😭😭😭 100x more Uncomfy than any kind of bra I promise u Still I get what u mean bras suck💀

I don't actually mind wearing a bra. All of mine are pretty comfortable and I honestly would rather wear one than not.

Stephi honestly it’s probably just because I’m a trans guy and that sort of things makes me dysphoric- like that’s definitely why I hate those sort of things-

​@@aslanfuller655 Yeah that makes sense, since it's traditionally very feminine. A binder definitely sounds very uncomfortable to me, and I've never tried one. I can't imagine how uncomfortable it would be to wear one every day.

@@ava_lavender I hate wearing bras, some really hurt after a while because... ummm... I kinda have big boobs 😅 and it's really hard to find good bras that fit and everything. During the day it's easy to ignore, but in the evening... oof it just hurts so much. I'm just really glad that I don't have to wear a binder. I would never fit in one, and if it would be one, that's big enough, it wouldn't even be able to make me look more flat anyways 😬. Edit: I'm just reading this comment I wrote over one year ago and it's so ironic because I've been wanting to get a binder all that time xD why was I lying to myself here ㅠㅠ but yeah it would probably be too uncomfortable (and expensive too lol) for my big size anyways :')

Cochanna Coleman lol, probably similar

@@TristanSimpson 😂😂😂

But we don’t have to take our shirts off to remove our hindrances! 😂🤣

I so relate to that

Exactly what I was thinking too lol

Cool to see another male ballet dancer out there!me too:)

its also not what a gymnasts foot or leg looks like lol

lol so all that anxiety for nothing. yay.

not only in ballet tho...

Female standards in general, not only in ballet

true

Personally I hate not shaving. The feeling of hair bothers me so much

@@hayleymarse2853 I hate shaving but I hate the feeling of hair more so I still shave lmao

Not just ballet but also theater and choir used to be only male so there were guys that played as female characters in theater and guys being sopranos (though the sopranos where young boys)

in the past lots of people were gay and it was considered normal. its only "strange" now.

you can’t bring up the past/original state of something and use it as an indication for its modern equivalent. Like, I’d assume that many other aspects of ballet have changed since its origin. People do this so much for some reason, and even more so in etymology/language, like for example “The N word was used as a slur/derogatory term for black people in the past, therefore you shouldn’t use it” even though modern usage of the word is done in an effort to reclaim it and render it in a positive light . Same with the word “gay”, which originally means “joyful” or “happy”, but the usage of “gay” in that context/with that definition is technically considered archaic now. Things change, and IMO the contemporary usage/state of said “thing” is the one that should be held with the most consideration,. That being said, I think the stereotype of all male ballet dancers being gay is dumb and problematic, because it’s used in a negative sense, portraying being gay/“feminine” as undesirable.

@@alanp741 choir in the past was so male-centered that little boys would even have their testicles castrated/cut so that the testosterone wouldn't change their voice and they could be able to sing the high notes in the future. Women with natural higher registers were like, Hi, We exist, We can sing too

@@DavidLopez-dh4vu oh yes

He's referring to Don Basilio...not the old knight Don Quijote.

Shame ballet is boring and not productive for the expansion and betterment of our species

@@kathrynjaneway5346 we audience members in our species use it to relax and destress from our hard lives and as an escape from pain and a way to celebrate Christmas ( The Nutcracker Ballet) which makes the audience members more productive and better at saving each other/the planet/the children/our species/other species after having relaxed and celebrated...and the dancers get very toned muscles and create valuable art.

HAHAHA

Oh yes! I noticed them immediately. Excellent choice! ❤

It's an artwork

Honestly

I think what people don't realise is that it's not *just* the guy lifting the girl. Part of it is the girl springing well and holding good body tone for the guy to hold onto, or holding posture in a certain way that helps the guy to turn while in a hold.

@@sweeperboy YES! Love that!! I wish more people realized that!!!!!

The girls have to help too. It's a partnership. It isn't just "Lift me, carry me, make me look like a ballerina"😂 Having said that a great partner can really help a ballerina who is having a bad day.😙

Valerie Pagendarm oh for SURE!! We gotta be SOLID for those strong guys! It’s one of the most beautiful partnerships between two people, I think. 😍😍

Alyssa McLeod why does this remind me of the difference between me holding an awake, alert child and one who mysteriously gains 50 pounds once they fall asleep? 😂🤣 But seriously, I have always admired how much professionals make ballet look so light, airy, and effortless. 🥰

wow, props to you for being a great mom. my parents are homophobic and i’m lesbian which sucks, just know that your son appreciates you SO much.

Thank you for being a good mom

You’re a great mum, all other parents I’ve met are homophobic as hell

Ur a great mum, unlike mine who I won't come out to

@@londonaaliyah4930 Same... :(

and talking of "Goodies" ... I quite agree they are goodies to some of us

It also may be because there are fewer Male dancers, less offer means they are in higher demand

Yea I think it was more supply-demand thing and not sexism

That's common in every type of career. Even those were the mayority is female, like modeling.

@@stephanieindahmulya4710 then why female protagonist aré paíd less than a male co-protagonist? And by that lógic female directors and actresses should be paíd more than male directors , but that's not the case. Is not as simple a supply-demand thing, specialy in theater and cinema.

@@kiriki4558 that really depends on the job. A female director is not mandatory, a male or female can both do that and it will end up in the same results. And about actors, there is no lack of female actors at this day (they're less represented which should change), while with male Ballet dancers there defenitely is.

Yay, ik heb een mede-Nederlander gevonden.

Lenthe Kuijt LMAOOOO unite😼✊

Don't you know how LUCKY you are

Simone Romualdi yeah i’m bi too but like no boy wants to date because they’re all just like my best friends lol

I don’t see what’s special about the Netherlands maybe it’s because I was born there and grew up there

Lmao yes, they're literally execution penalties... And the gymnasts with the best execution point their toes correctly..... i dunno, it was an ignorant comment he made

True as a former gymnast I can confirm

hi! do you care to explain more about this? why do they get penalised for it? was it a rule set for a certain reason or..?

Rachel x I’m pretty sure it’s because having pointed toes and straight legs just makes the whole routine look better, like the finishing touches on the routine basically. I’m not sure exactly, but it seems like it would be the same reason as to why ballet dancers do the same thing.

@@gabriellegutierrez6843 OH WAIT LMAO IM DUMB I thought Jack meant if gymnasts pointed their toes properly and straightened their legs they would be crucified... thanks for replying tho ☺

😍😍😍

My glasses steamed up! Lol he is a teaser.

My heart stopped.

OMG!

Now I feel bad for commenting this. It's about his amazing ass, instead of being relevant to the video. I really don't want Tristan to think he is only valued for being cute, and that people don't actually care about his ballet

right on every point :)

got to use your core strength to go with the movements of your partner and not be loosey goosey or at least that's what I learned from Swing Dancing which is also partnered, gymnastic and involves some throws. :) Wheee :)

Leah Rounsville vlog coming in 2 weeks ❤️❤️

Do you speak German much?

Five Dances movie

Yes.

What does being from the Philippines have to do with not being into ballet when the country has its own troupe? Western companies aren’t the only ones that perform well. Colonial mentality at its best 😏

@@adiksadiatabs please read the entire post and try to understand. Did I not say that I'm proud of our Prima Ballerinas??! Is there any mention of not liking Philippine Ballet and being in love with other country's ballet company??! Or has it escaped your thick skull that BOTH Maniya Barredo and Lisa Macuja-Elizalde ARE FROM THE PHILIPPINES?! I just mentioned the New York Ballet and Kirov Ballet as that is where they trained respectively! I highly suggest you keep your ugly comments and IGNORANCE to yourself!!!

I think adiksadiatabs problem is in the nuance of your first half of the sentence "Being from the Philippine, I'm not into ballet so much," as if it's two correlated things when it doesn't necessarily reflect any connection whatsoever You can just simply said, "I'm not into ballet but I'm proud with our Prima Ballerina that has successful career abroad (mention the name and the company)" Or maybe something that goes along like, "Ballet is not really that famous in Philippine but I'm happy that we have Prima Ballerina such as (mention names) in a well-known dance troupe that brings them international recognition,"

@@SANDUSK471 it's because ballet is not that recognized in the Philippines. Very few people attend ballet shows because it's thought of as "expensive" and too high-strung. But kudos to Lisa Macuja-Elizalde who works tirelessly to bring ballet closer to the masses, and truth be told, it's only now that many Filipinos have been introduced to ballet, myself included. But thank you for your observation. Much appreciated. 👍👍👍

Jean-Christophe Matter I agree! Always pleasant and engaging.

All the best with ballet there

Thalia B ☺️😍
