Re: Son gives up skirts, daughter in combats and dress that became a pencil skirt

Well I raised my son to wear skirts if he wants to. He wanted to and he did for a while but senior school came along and my daughter told him if he wore a skirt to school then he would attract attention. He asked if any boys wore skirts and she said yes but they are trans. He said then he would jus...

Re: Dutch Seamstress Makes Dresses fo Boys

There ARE parents that reject the current social situation. These are the folks who might even more work on finding ways of visibly rejecting oppressive structures. I don't doubt it for a moment, but I'll assert that there will be spots where they don't dare to express that opposition publicly or e...

Re: Slip sliding away

A whole new batch of "rules"? No, wisdom passed down over the years from one's ancestors (in the case of female-to-male, mostly accidental). If you like "underwear as outerwear" as a fashion statement (It's been done before in the 1980s), go for it. I happen to think it looks ta...

Re: Slip sliding away

When my daughter was in marching band, the girls had to wear beige underneath the white uniform pants. Supposedly white-under-white shows through but beige-under-white does not? My slips are all beige (ivory) or black. As for length, I like it to end a few inches above the hem so it doesn't show. Y...

Re: Dutch Seamstress Makes Dresses fo Boys

Children's clothes would be basically the same ie boys can very well wear the same as girls, so it's mainly symbolic. Correct. The pre-pubescent male and female forms are large indistinguishable and hence be discounted in fit terms. Where it matters is with the parents and how closed-minded they ar...

Re: Dreamcatcher

This sort of idiocy is one of the reasons that our society is headed straight down the loo at this point in time. So it's got pink in it. So bloody what? Are dreams "masculine" or "feminine"? How do we police those? [0] Does it matter that pink was at one point a boy's colour bei...

Re: Slip sliding away

Slips are just about surviving, as many High Street shops didn’t seem to know whether to stock them or not in recent years and where they did stock them , they reduced the amount of lace in the hem. M and S in particular. Slips will, in all likelihood, soldier on until the skirt is entirely obsolet...

Re: Slip sliding away

Slips are one of the truly functional parts of a woman's wardrobe -- and very simple, too. It's just a swath of fabric designed to be "slippery" and to control friction between other layers. Heavier ones can be deployed for a little bit of extra warmth, but the lighter-weight ones are simp...

Re: What women really think

Well, let's not start a fight over this one. 50 or 42 doesn't make a whit of difference, something smacks me as "out of place" in that scenario, and I'd bring in the the mental heath folks to run an analysis on the guy in question. The operative thought should be here, "Would I behave...

Re: What women really think

Stevie, Thanks for the rebuttal to Damon. It needed saying, and I've been in a bit over my head with idiocy at work. Extraordinary claims it is said always require corresponding proof, although this is altogether too frequently lost in the moment. I was just happy to have gotten through the day and ...

Re: Experience in the Loo

As I said, aged 3 or 4 is one thing, but 9 or 10? We have to draw the line somewhere. Indeed, and that's where the focus should be -- on what's reasonable and likely to be accepted by all (preferably) or at least most . As far as the hypothetical "situation" above; that was pure hyperbole...

Re: UFOs

On, "How far will we have gone?", the answer is easy. The extent of the human presence in the universe extends roughly radially from Earth to the locations of the two Voyager spacecraft. This is not going to change, likely in the next several thousand years. Thanks to "human nature&qu...
