I'm hoping you are wrong about acceptance from women. If you are right I'm deluding myself that everything is OK at home. Marriage is not easy so it's hard to tell.
One word of hope and it is that "opinion" word again.
My wife's opposition is based on a very deep seated attitude, you could say her knowledge as she would see it.
This will never change, I see that now.
However, matters of opinion are different, more fluid and open to change. Therein, we have cause for hope.
Communication, honesty and mutual compromise are the key ingredients. In my case we only have one out of those three left.
You two, on the other hand, do appear to be faring rather better.
As to whether I am right or wrong in any of the points made, it doesn't really matter.
I am not complaining or whining about the state of play for men in skirts. I merely stated, how I perceive the world that I exist in.
Right or wrong, labels, names, opinions and attitudes, no one gets to dictate how I dress.
More importantly, I decide on what, or who I care most about.
That is "attitude" and it is all mine!
Steve.
