Re: What feminine items do you wear?

I have found crotchless tights very handy and comfortable. You don't lose the airiness of a skirt, keep your legs covered when it's cool, and it's easier than garters or keep pulling socks up.

Re: Intimate Medical Issues

...women patients have a legal right to be seen only by female medics for intimate issues while no corresponding right exists for males. That's an inequality. I expect men rape women much more often than women rape men. So women fear men more than men fear women--it's reasonable. Fear hinders openn...

I was told to look at one's mom's dad as the best prediction. In my limited observations, that seems pretty accurate.

Re: back pain

I deal with occasional back pain also. Stretches usually help quite a bit. Massage and chiropractic are often good.

Re: The boundary between skirt wearer and TV

Have your ever overheard a woman say that...she doesn't want to wear a dress for the rest of her life? If some people like to wear skirts, other people prefer trousers.
And some people prefer to be clothes-free. I wish I had the same freedom to be nude as I do to wear a dress.

Re: The boundary between skirt wearer and TV

To me, a transvestite refers to someone who gets sexually aroused by wearing clothes of the other gender. I guess I don't care about that so long as the person doesn't make that obvious.

I could give a similar response--but I usually don't have underwear, so the answer is that I might be arrested if I didn't have it on.

Re: Doing away with "Embracing feminity"

According to psychology Well, right there is your problem. I firmly believe psychology - while useful tool for helping individuals - is made up of a lot of BS. I studied psychology at a graduate level. There are numerous theories, all contradicting one another. Each theorist can see data that confi...

Re: Pretty Skirts?

I have a few skirts I consider "pretty". I wear them sometimes on special occasions. I like pretty things as celebratory, but don't like calling a lot of attention to myself, so it's a bit of a conflict.

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

It was a warm afternoon, so I was gardening clothes-free, but then my wife and I needed to go into Walmart for some medicine. I just slipped on this item; I've thought of it as a long shirt, but decided it works as a dress. I asked my wife if I needed something else; she didn't think so. I wonder if...

Re: Streetwear Footwear

This isn't my attitude: We started over 25 years ago helping people who were assigned male at birth find products to express their femininity - first with a catalog and later, a website devoted to those who needed specialized clothing and products to express their true selves. Over time, we emerged ...

Re: Success

Sometimes what the image states is true. Sometimes what people call "success" is due to inheritance, privilege, and exploitation of others.

Although I call it a waist pack or belt pack, I make the same choice. Helps in remembering to take my wallet, pocketknife, keys, and phone when I go out.
