Boys Who Prance

Let me get straight to the point on this one. I have a student. Who is a 9 year old boy.

And he prances when he walks.

Actually, maybe it's not so much a prance. Because a prance is more a walk where you pick your feet up in a feminine, dancer sort of way.

It's not a skip, either. It's a hybrid, really.

He walks like a rooster with his chest puffed out, his arms behind him like he's about to take off in flight, and legs moving as if he is about to chasse across the room.

It is hard not to stare sometimes.

Ironically, he is one of the boys with a girlfriend.

I love it.
