I love ballet. Anyone who dedicates themselves so wholeheartedly and with such discipline has my eternal respect.
If it’s good enough for Audrey Hepburn it has to be good.
Ugggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
double that
Like hurling fingers they are.
like running toes..who needs toenails anyway
Yuck. It’s like self mutilation.
Entirely worth it just for the picture of the dancer’s bum on that Scissor Sisters’ album.

“Why don’t they make shoes for black ballet dancers?”
Just amazing, the dicipline, training and dedication that goes into being a ballerina. Not a living for the faint of heart.
I am sure if these were photos of male rugby players split lips, premiership footballers bruises or Conor Mcgregor’s broken *whatever*, the feeling would be that it was just a natural part of their dicipline. A ballet dancer has some split skin and blisters and all the unthinking knuckle draggers can say is “eughhhh”
Ballerina up you poor precious poppets. You’ll be the better for it.
