Why do female ballet dancers have no breasts?

Answer 1

All of the other four answers are wrong. It's not that training in ballet creates small-breasted dancers. It's that only smaller-breasted women can become professional ballet dancers. For one, as all the many large-breasted women who study ballet can tell you, bouncing breasts HURT. Secondly, it is unseemly for the art form to see bouncing breasts on stage performing ballet.

The more classical ballet companies prefer the dancers with the smallest breasts - AA to small B. The more modern dance a company might do, the more variation in chest sizes is allowed - up to a C. But those companies would need to allow for more variation in costuming as well, as the dancers with larger chest sizes would need to wear bras under their costumes, and the straps often show. Of course, the colors and styles are chosen to blend with the costumes, so most audience members don't pay attention to them.

Answer 2

Ballet burns off fat...and that's what the main parts of the breast are...fat. I know quite a few corps de ballet (younger members of companies) who have breats. But the more ballet you do the more fat you burn which could make breats smaller.

Answer 3

They do have breasts! Except they are tiny....they work out allot and breasts are made of body fat....so if you have little body fat...you have little breasts. That also happens to girls that lift weights...run, and are athletic. the skinnyer you are, ( athletic) the smaller breasts. Now that is not necessarily on everyone....everybody has different fat distribution. there's some really skinni girls that have large breasts, but that's because they are not athletic!

Answer 4

they r too slim

Answer 5
