Carl was good enough to give a very complete answer to my inquiry. Except he forgot to tell me suggestions belong in this area. So, in the spirit of my suggestion and in the interest of letting the Tennessee thread die its overdue natural death I’m crossing the T of my suggestion. Carl also said tha...

As do we all, however, my concern is that a person may be interested in what more someone had to say about the concerns of the prom couple, in this example, and no interest whatsoever in a debate on abortion. If whoever took it in that direction had moved the abortion debate to Off Topic, no one wou...

Fred, as you well know, we often have topic creep, but I have to agree this digression is worthy of the Guinness Book! Unless someone has further thoughts about the couple in the Volunteer State, I’d call this a wrap as well. Going forward, I feel those of us who are politically-minded should pay mo...

I sometimes wear leggings out and about, but unless I'm going for a walk or a bike ride, I always wear some kind of tunic length top that extends to at least my crotch. After getting slut-shamed by a very good friend for letting my nipples show through a thin dress, I make sure I don't provide any m...

Dust wrote, Unfortunately, most of us guys will have trouble getting women's tops to fit, especially when they are more fitted like so may suit jackets. They end up being too tight in the shoulders, arms, and waist while the man trying to wear it can't fill the chest properly. The place where a top ...

Greetings, In the interests of bringing down the temperature here in the Cafe, I went back through my recent posts and in as many of them as are still open for editing, went through them and scrubbed them of as much intemperate or inflammatory language as I could find. I also made other edits to sim...

All you have to do is read the choice of words in the first paragraph to tell its slanted; “Abortion activists,” “abortion industry” really? As far as I know, no one is out on picket lines advocating for abortions; they’re there advocating for a woman’s right to choose and to obtain those services w...

in the interests of getting things back on the track of sharing what happens when we venture out the door in our finery I'm adding an addendum to my post about Faldaguy and I getting together. After we went our separate ways, I drove to downtown Portland (we met up in the 'burbs) to pick up a faux p...

Apparently, you missed the 2 winking emojis.

Of course, I was joking!

Tho, sometimes I wonder ... and I'm sure Carl reciprocates the sentiment.

No, I wasn't directly answering your hypothetical question on raping little kids and killing unborn babies. Not really what I wanted to talk about. It also felt like you were trying to trap me (as the Pharasees tried to do to Christ) with a fringe case. I hope that wasn't your intent. I brought up ...

Orrrr, you could look at your local department store's ads and learn that most women's suits are assembled from suiting separates from a designer's collection. So, because -- as you've been noticing since puberty -- women are shaped differently than men, you go to the bricks and mortar store and fin...

Good Lord you guys, if you keep this kind of chatter up the next you know we'll see men walking around in skirts and dresses ... Great Caesar's Ghost! It's too late! That's what comes from breaking down the gender labels!!!

Hello Maninafrock, Welcome to the Skirt Cafe! If and when you run into my posts you'll learn that nearly everything I wear originated in the Women's Department and that my go-to category is dresses. I own more of those than probably any 2 or 3 women that you know. But then as a female friend of mine...

Come to think of it Dust, you didn't directly answer my hypothetical, 'If your 12-year old daughter had been raped and impregnated by a relative, would you really require her to carry her pregnancy to term?' However, I'll go out on that limb and take your response as an affirmative answer. You're en...
