Who invented the first male ballet man?
King Louis XIV, originator of ballet as a dance and art form, was a male. Male dancers were more common than females when ballet first started.
If a female is a ballerina what is a male ballet dancer called?
The term "danseur" is a French term meaning "male ballet dancer." Just as "danseuse" is the female equivalent. And the term "ballerina" actually is an Italian phrase for the PRINCIPAL female ballet dancer. But it has since been used by now to label ANY female taking ballet. Still, just as "ballerina" is a female ballet dancer--"ballerino" is the male equivalent in Italian.
Do male ballet dancers go on point?
I think that male ballet dancers CAN go on point. I know that females can. So why not men?
