A dress for all men

Discussion of fashion elements and looks that are traditionally considered somewhat "femme" but are presented in a masculine context. This is NOT about transvestism or crossdressing.

Give it time and my wife will find a "snap chat" filter for just such an experiment. If she does I'll be sure to post it. :mrgreen:

I like that picture too. To me it says that a guy can be feminine and still be a man. The gender binary is a construct of society.

And BTW Moonshadow, makeup can be as simple as you want. I've been dappling with mascara and eye shadow, along with some concealer for age spots on my face. Don't let it scare you if you want to try it. I've been to two stores that sell makeup and both were more than happy to help me out.

Namaste,

So I used a Snapchat filter on Moon. This is what he'd look like with makeup.

There has been a lot of stress on the cafe over the tone and content of some of the post on other blogs. I am sure that I have contributed to the problem..
This is my peace offering we can all use a little laugh.
And for RM Anderson I know the guy in the other picture has my ammo

Fred, oooh you are awful, but I like you.

Points if you can name the comedian whose tag line this was.
I believe in offering every assistance short of actual help but then mainly just want to be left to be myself in all my difference and uniqueness.

ROFL!

I don't guess you'll get many detractors in that outfit, eh?
Courage, conviction, nerve, verve, dash, panache, guts, nuts, balls, gall, élan, stones, whatever. Get some and get skirted.

Me thinks the shoulder pads on that skirt/dress are not going help one darn bit reducing the recoil from that howitzer ! LOL !

NICE skirt/dress with an all around "A" frame hem line but I don't know how well you are going to fare with those heels when
the trigger is pulled - Houston we have lift off and oldsalt1 is in initial orbit - that "A" frame hem line will act just fine as a drogue shoot for reentry !

WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !

So JennC03 who is the flower child at your place now ?

Guess who is going to grace the cover of the next issue of the SkirtCafe magazine ?

That is one heck of a remarkable piece of work and those eyes look they came right out of a National Geographic Issue !
WOWzer !!!
