autogynephelia: Appropriating ballerina femininity When you first hear the word ballerina, you jealously picture delicate cis girls twirling around on their toes, pink tutus and satin pointe shoes. Undoubtedly, the stereotypes associated with ballet are traditionally feminine. Countless young non-natal females begin ballet classes as a “cute” way to fulfill their feminine fantasies; and, they should only be encouraged to do so. A ballerina has a disciplined, graceful, elegant, and feminine body that represents the quintessence of femininity. This very desirable silhouette can be attained with early transitioning, exercise and a strict diet, namely: extremely toned long slender legs and neck, small soft breasts, and boyish small hips. By emulating the physical form of ballerinas, and wearing dance attire that is so perilously pretty, non-natal females can hope to attain feminine grace, poise, and elegance, while defining themselves as a woman. -- source link
