Shaving is a big 10/4!

Have you ever considered waxing? Once you wax you never go bax.

OK-It was a lame pun!

Don't hate me!


Ciao!

I don't think Xa was trying to stifle new discusion on the subject, merely suggesting that you use the existing thread.

It's a sentiment I agree with because otherwise the board gets into a mess.

I'm actually guilty too because I forgot about the other one.

Shaving my head and the non-goatee part of my beard is enough for me. I certainly couldn't be bothered doing my legs and feet as well.

Wow, Gene - you've got the dream life as far as I'm concerned! Your wife making you go out as a woman... that's amazing. That's one of my ultimate fantasies! How can I find a woman who will do that with me? :)

As a swimmer in high school (400m relay), I never shaved my legs. But as an amateur bicyclist in college, I did. After the third time, my girlfriend introduced me to Nair.

Since then, I rarely go hairless. About the only time I borrow the wife's bottle is when she makes me, as in the four times in the last two years she got the hankering to force me to wear what I wear around the house out in public.

Generally speaking, it's little more than a comfortable skirt and a pair of sandals, and almost invariably in the summertime.

She'll start by putting the bottle of Nair next to my shampoo in the shower - often right in front of it. Although I "wonder what's next," I know what's coming. She'll lay out a pair of medium (2-1/2 to 3-1/2 inch) heeled sandals of modest taste, along with one of my more favorite, full-length skirts.

It's up to me to complete the picture.

After nixing the hair, I usually use her Neroli detangler on my hair, followed by a brief stint with her makeup case applying a touch of shadow, liner, etc. Not enough to show - just enough to make a slight difference, one that says "hmmm....???" instead of "it's a guy."

I follow that with one of my favorite shirts from either International Male or Nordstroms (usually a front lace-up), then often a very subdued polish, such as Revlon's 450 (glow light) and topcoat.

After that, she comes in and gives my hair a few twirls, and we're off. The only reason I can pull this off is because of a problem of unknown origen whereby I, for the most part, skipped puberty. About the only looks I get when I go out like this are from the few guys who're more interested in trying to find upper-level curves than brains.

Strangely enough, although I feel perfectly comfortable wearing a skirt and heels at home around family, I'm still very uncomfortable wearing them in public. Doing a touch of cross-dress alleviates my discomfort considerably, even though personally, I more or less disdain the idea of trying to "pass."

I'm male, and like it, and would much rather society change to allow people to dress in whatever clothes and shoes they so desire.

But hey - that's just me...

Sorry if you got the wrong idea.

All I hoped to do was to point you in the direction of information already residing on the board.

Cynical invective I reserve for the political discussions.

shaving your legs is far to fussy for me. Since I never wear stocking with shorts (always trousers with stockings), hair free legs aren't a problem. And, with T-shirts and shorts, always bare feet and sandals. No problem with moderately hairy legs.

I mentioned shaving, but the new girlfriend said she was against it for me. Maybe she'll change when the weather gets warm and it's shorts and heels time.

It's not quite like that... The vast majority of the time (99 times out of 100), I go out as a guy - as I prefer! Once or twice a year, though, she gets this wild hair about seeing how others will react if the guy she's with (me) is, well, fairly non-descript with respect to sexual identity. Most of the time it's jeans or slacks, not a skirt (only been two or three times in a skirt).

She has fun with it - I go along.

But again, it's rare, as we both prefer. I really don't like attracting attention or trying to "make a statement."

I do wish, however, that the general public would adopt an "ok" attitude towards men's styles. Right now, a man in a skirt attracts far too much attention for my tastes, yet I prefer wearing them (and do most of the time at home) because they're so comfortable.

I have to give a positive vote to leg shaving too. The feeling of smooth, hairless legs is incredible, especially when in bed next to the wife!! To take it a step further, shaving the genital area is another plus!!!! Get out the razors guys!

One tip though, don't use the same razor on your face that you used on the legs.

Plats :)
