My Mood: Rep Power: 30  | Re: October in NE OHIO I suppose it could continue into Sunday for breakfast some where for those who want to get a room. My wife and I will be more than happy to meet for Sun. breakfast and what ever happens after that. Maybe we could take in a movie or something. I'm not to good at organizing so we'll have to play it by ear.

Rep Power: 3  | Re: October in NE OHIO If it's anywhere between Sandusky and Canton, I will be there. I want to wear something extra special. I've just discovered guys' hose (why has the soothing comfort of this stuff not become more widely known?) I like hh clogs (although my daily fare is conventional open back Bastad clogs...I am wearing them with the aforementioned guys' pantyhose, and have not felt this comfortable in quite a while). If I don't wear the hh clogs, I'll wear my EXTREMELY low-cut pumps (go to "Lovely Pumps" to see something similar), or if I chicken-out, my spike heel boots. Screw conventionality. "I'm o.k., you're o.k." Again, this is just part of life. Not obligatory, but if u care to participate, o.k. Some *%&#*&&@ just dropped a virus on my trusty Sony Vaio computer, so I am forced to write this on another of the ten computers that I own. A pox upon you, virus-dropper. May you some day have to send out an e-mail asking for rescue, only to discover that YOU have such a virus! Long live hhplace!  |

My Mood: Rep Power: 4  | Re: October in NE OHIO Let's let it flow. I just want to wear my heels where I want and be with other people that feel the same way. I have many pairs to choose from.Jeans and 5 inch wedge peep toe pumps sound good to me. I will make sure that my toes are painted real pretty.

Rep Power: 3  | Re: October in NE OHIO Let me re-interate; I "wanna" do this. I don't want to make a big deal out of this, but I have found wearing nifty footwear and not being questioned has been kind of nice. The only exception was the clerk at Best Buy, who seemed a bit agast by my cross-strapped hh sandals. The next time I was at same store, I was in a pair of 3" pumps, backed by p.h. (pantyhose.) I guess that I am a bit tv, but my libido is toward the opposite sex. Nonetheless, I'm gonna attend our meet in a jeans skirt, p.h., and pumps similar to "Lovely Pumps"., which, believe it or not, came from Wally Walmart, in ladies' size 12. Learning to know myself for who I am.... |

Not to burst anyone's bubble but I need to to be honest with everyone.
The point that I, and I believe a lot of us are trying to get across to the general public here is that there are a lot of men out there that like to wear heels on a daily basis.
I am NOT against tv's cd's gays or what and who ever you are and neither is my wife but the fact is here is that we don't want to put the wrong ideas in other peoples minds and I think if they see us walking around in skirts, heels and hose, it will give the wrong idea that I, we, are trying to get across, just men in heels.
Saying that, I think we should keep it kind of low profile for the first meet and come wearing just pants and heels of your choice, boots, in our out of pants, your highest heels, or what ever. We'll see how it goes and take it from there.
Please do not be offended, this is a trial run and I just don't want anyone to get the wrong idea. The public can be very harsh as we know. We need to feel them out on this first heel meet and go from there.
Opinions please!

Rep Power: 6  | Re: October in NE OHIO I echo Johnie's post. I, too, have nothing against skirts but I think this outing isn't to promote all fashion freedom; I think its focus is or should be limited to heels. Well, if you want to wear tights or pantyhose, that's fine, too. It's mostly hidden anyway, and I wear them all the time myself. But I would discourage skirts, dresses, skorts, women's blouses, wigs, make-up and attempts at crossdressing in general. In my opinion we should present ourselves dressed as men (meaning jeans or long pants), but in shoes with heels. If we were in a private meeting, I'm good with anything you want to wear, but since we plan to be in a public venue, I think we need to put some boundaries on the event. As it is, we're pushing the envelope way beyond what a lot of people can tolerate without laughing their heads off anyway. So I vote to limit fashion freedom this first time to just shoes and hose, and see how it goes. Let's keep it conservative for those who may be feel awkward with wearing heels in public. It may even be the first time for some! Once we're comfortable with each other, then we can discuss expanding the boundaries. Just my opinion.

If u get my drift.:)
