Re: Dua Lipa’s SNL performance featuring skirted male dancers

It occurred to me that I may have excessively pessimistic in some of my posts. Regarding the time scale for MIS catching on. No, I think you were quite on target. But not, perhaps, for the reasons you may have thought. Maybe younger people are a bit more open minded than I anticipated. I am cautiou...

Re: First time of the year...

It was, but it's a bittersweet memory now as temperatures will be back in the 50s for the rest of the week. Oh, well.

First time of the year...

And so it came to pass that things warmed up enough in the wilds of Central Massachusetts (USA) that was was warm enough to go outside and hot have to dress like a pillow to stay warm. I gathered up my courage and put on my canary-yellow miniskirt, a pink dress shirt, and a black waistcoat. Below we...

Re: Dua Lipa’s SNL performance featuring skirted male dancers

The nomenclature of "A Typical 3 Chord Song" is a generic title attributed to most, if not all, "modern" music writings. IMHO, "modern" music has lost its pizazz, relying solely on rhythm(beat out quite loudly) to carry the effects to the listener. The "melody and...

Re: Hypothethical Question

Sorry Al, but I guess this excludes questions which may have to remain unasked. It all depends on the quality of the question and how the thing works its way through the discussion process. It will also depend on the quality of discourse during any discussion. The primary thing of note is that in t...

Re: International Men Can Wear Dresses Day

I think it is quite valid to have opinions on whether you like tattoos on people you date, but out of line to link tattoos to male or female traits in this age of equality. Bit like linking skirts to females. IMHO I make no bones about the fact this is my foible (one of many; I am human after all),...

Re: International Men Can Wear Dresses Day

How is someone's tattoo count linked to their sexual preferences?????????????? Traditionally, in the west, tattooing has been a man's activity, primary males who had extensive travel to odd corners of the world (e.g. sailors). It was not the general tendency for women. This reversed fairly recently...

That's what I've been saying all along. I've also given up because I'm tired of wasting breath and keystrokes.

Argue your limitations, and lo they are yours.

Re: International Men Can Wear Dresses Day

CR you are finding the wrong type of women. Goth, artsy, geeky, tatted, and extremely intelligent women are accepting especially if they have their own off-beat style. I'm in my 60s. A long-range strike would be a 50-year-old goth woman, because teenagers don't interest me. Geeky I can deal with. &...

Re: Hypothethical Question

In inventing the "GNC Box" you're merely isolating yourself even farther from the mainstream. Now, that's your choice, and I'm fine with that. Just don't force it on the rest of us who are trying to "de-gender" the skirt and bring it into our realm -- and many of us are quite com...

Re: Hypothethical Question

It's a slightly odd scenario you depict. One where female attire on men is allowed and encouraged but strictly controlled. Actually, the scenario reminds me of the discussion about the next skirt to gain traction (in Mainstream society). There was at least one thread about that. The speculation ten...

Re: International Men Can Wear Dresses Day

Are you saying that you think that people involved in suicide prevention would be interested in helping the cause of men wearing skirts to be accepted? I'm not sure what the OP was driving at either, but, if the notion actually showed some efficacy in improving the situation, I can't see why the re...

Re: Hypothethical Question

My take on "GNC" is that it's yet one more attempt to create a "classification" (box) without need. The crux of the matter is not to put anyone in a box. If someone wants to put themselves in a box then they are at liberty to do that, although near impossible if they are dead. I...
