“When you’re young in dance, [you’re told] ‘men have to do this’, ‘women have to do that’. In ballet, women wear tutus […] and pointe shoes—only women can wear those.
I heard that a lot, but ever since I was little, [I thought]: ‘Why? I’m sure I can do it even better. Why can’t I? I can be flexible, too. Ballet shoes… I can wear them too. Why do you tell me I can’t?’”
