Oscar Runway
Re: Oscar Runway
Funnily enough this was on the news at some point and MOH drew my intention to it at the time. I remarked that the look was a bit OTT but why couldn't a man wear a more conventional dress/gown? She didn't ridicule the look or mock the person which I was pleased about. I think that she was just surprised. I could have said more but didn't want to labour the point to someone mildly antagonistic to the look.
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.

Re: Oscar Runway
I agree it's OTT for most settings, but compared to some of the ladies' outfits, it was in keeping with the event. I was interested that as a homosexual man he was keen to stress he was not undermining his masculinity. To me, this is reassuring because someone from the LGBTQ+ community is challenging stereotypes of gay men being effeminate - he later chose to wear a trouser suit for practicality. This is an approach that many of us here take to skirt wearing.
Let's see more of this.

True, but I also suspect that snooty look had something to do with column inches or her lack thereof.Sinned wrote:She was just jealous as his look was WWWWAAAAYYYY better than hers.
Has Ms Close hit the headlines anytime lately?

Re: Oscar Runway
Ah yes... that will happen from time to time. Certain women that are accustomed turning heads when they walk in the room tend to seem a bit miffed when some guy in a skirt outshines them for a moment.STEVIE wrote:True, but I also suspect that snooty look had something to do with column inches or her lack thereof.Sinned wrote:She was just jealous as his look was WWWWAAAAYYYY better than hers.

I guess that's one of the disadvantages of womanhood. There really isn't much they can do anymore that's remotely unique and thus make jaws drop....
All a man has to do is wear a dress.... and its front page news!
Oh well!
