Today, I was at dance rehearsal. As a male dancer I like to keep the fact that I dance a secret because of the stupid stereotypes male dancers have. This plan was quickly shot down when I discovered I was performing at my school. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was at a wedding and I reluctantly joined the dance floor. As soon as I started dancing, I felt my trousers rip. Trying to save face, I kept dancing, hoping no one would notice. A few minutes later, I realized my silk boxer shorts were completely visible to the entire party. FML
Today, my boss caught me singing and dancing in the office when I thought no one was around. Trying to save face, I told him I was just practicing for a team-building event. He smiled and said, "Great, you can lead the next one." Now I have to choreograph a team-building dance. FML
Today, I was pretending to be a ballerina. I was dancing around my room, making a complete dick of myself. I eventually caught sight of a pair of guys grinning and filming me with their cellphones through my window. FML
Today, I was at a ballet recital with my friend, sitting between her and the mother of the head male ballerina. When he came on stage in obscenely tight white tights I whispered to my friend, "You can see his whole freaking package!" I'd whispered to the wrong side. FML
Today, while I was on stage dancing for a competition dress rehearsal, my top fell off, exposing my breasts. I was really embarrassed, but fortunately no one said anything about it. That is until a kid in the audience came up to me and said, "That was a disappointment." FML
Today, while dancing at my studio, our instructor was giving us all characters opposite of ourselves to portray in an improv solo. My friends got cool things like "creepy" and "vulnerable". I got "extremely sexy". FML
Today, I joined a dance class to impress my girlfriend. Halfway through, I realized I had two left feet. The instructor asked me to demonstrate a simple move, and instead I tripped on the mat, fell into another dancer, and took her down with me. I’ve been banned from all future classes. FML
Today, in dance class we did a choreography where we wear two shirts and take one off in one quick motion. After I took mine off, the audience goes "aaah". Then I realize that I had taken both my shirts off as stood there with only my bra on. I was being videotaped. FML
Today, I was at a party and I danced. Judging by people's stares, I should never ever attempt it again. FML
Today, I went to a party. I tried dancing in public for the first time ever. Judging by the whispers, stares, and giggles, I'm never doing it again. FML

Dude? Enjoy it. There are a few things that I look back on my life and I say "when I was in school, I wish I'd done"....Which include things like cheerleading, photography, a cool instrument to play and yes, dancing. It's great for you physically, less male competition and you get some amazing stories to tell when you get older... Enjoy it, and grab the babes while you can :)

Screw the stereotypes, and embrace what you enjoy doing. I had to deal with the same crap when I started competitive ballroom dancing almost five years ago. It was my senior year of high school and kids are super ruthless in an environment like that. I still didn't care. Good luck!

OP haters will hate no matter what you do. If you're feeling your numbers aren't ready just rehearse the crap out if it. Remember - unless they are dancers the audience won't know what your mistakes are. If your dance school is like any I've been in the male dancers are pretty much worshipped so just enjoy, work hard & enjoy the fact you get to express yourself & lift & touch beautiful dancers daily. Point out to any haters that while they are naked in a change room with other guys you are surrounded by beautiful, half naked women.

17: you are right - there is nothing awkward about a well trained male dancer. No body fat either!

We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind. Because if your friends don't dance. Well if they don't dance then they're no friends of mine. Coming from a fellow male dancer OP, ignore them and have fun.

Nothing to feel ashamed of. In fact, all roles in ages passed were played by men, including the roles of women, and were held to a high respect. Keep tradition alive and give it your best effort.

Just point out that you hang out with sexy girls all day, while the jocks that make fun of you shower all together after sports.
