Why do you think so many guys clothes are dull...

Because if mens clothes came in the same colours as womens, "most" guys would look like an accident in a paintball factory.


I laughed aloud when I read that. You're so right. What's more, most guys don't care about their appearance or presentation. What bothers me is that so many guys on this forum think they have to dress up en femme to look right, or even crossdress completely, just to go out in public when all they want to do is to wear heels. There are lots of ways to blend in the right kinds of shoes with jeans or pants, shirts and sweaters, and still look good with heels. Guys don't have to emulate women. They can be creative about their outfits, still look like guys, and still look good in heels. There are lots of examples on this forum of good looking masculine outfits with long boot cut jeans and pants, for example.

Perhaps guys and gals should be taught the same things and I don't just mean about attiring, I mean the whole enchilada. It would make things better for communication in relationships, because both would have similar understandings.

I say dress the way u feel. We are all unique in our own way and "interesting" or uncordnaited, or different to me, is a good thing. We need to make a statement about who we are and after all, it is just only clothing, right?

Because if mens clothes came in the same colours as womens, "most" guys would look like an accident in a paintball factory.

If your going to wear garments cut for a female shape, then you should ideally have an identical shape to fit, or, if your going to wear ALL our clothes from the womens section, you obviously will be seen as trying to "emulate" a woman
First off all,many women wear clothes and shoes that are very masculine and they can look good without emulating males physically.The same is applied to men in feminine clothing,if you do not expect it to look like on a woman it works very well on a guy.Women's clothes can underline the shape of a male body,because most women clothes are cut to outline the body (whatever it is), and most of them just fit the body - if it have strong curves it shall outline them, if not, it shall outline the less curvy masculine shape.Unless we talk about specific tops with bra-like parts, there is no problem for me,a man to wear whatever he pleases and not emulating women.Women do that from more than 50 years with masculine apparel-wake up!P.S. About colours see nature, most males have the colour and the beauty,only humans seem to have inverted that due to macho bull@hit.

My question is do you want to be just a MAN IN HEELS or Enjoy dressing more like a girl with all the fem? Skirts, hose etc.

Myself, I just want to be a guy in heels with my blue jeans and t-shirt or (guy clothes).

Back to the original question (see above)
I like very much to dress as a man, shirt and dark jeans/slacks and heels.
I have never considered dressing in a blouse and skirt or dress or any other "female type" clothing except for the heels.

I don't like wearing female clothing. The only other thing than i high heels i wear occasionally is pantyhose. They can make wearing heels more confortable. And it makes trying heels on in the store easier since you slide in more easily. I like to wear not too loose jeans with my heels. And the length of the jeans must be so that you can see most of the heels. :)

hi 5.5 thrill,
I do agree with you, it's mens wear and heels. No Femme stuff. I have tried on my partners clothes,dress, skirt etc. All they do is give me an erection which is not good, so I stay out of it. At my age, I don't think that would happen now. Our siuations change over years. We have to adjust. As she does not drive, the only time she goes out now is if I take her! Maybe her daughters come for her, ??? once a year??. Just have to live with it!If you get there, you may share my thoughts.

Even if I'd be wearing a combo of stiletto heels, hose and a skirt in public I'd still consider my look masculine with no desire to imitate a woman, simply because in my mind these items have become unisex attire.

Wearing a dress, bra, blouse, makeup etc is simply not my thing.

Funny to read my original post back from 2007. Since then I have definitely developed an interest in a more feminine look as well, a look that I'm sure people who see me in public think that I'm a full blown TV even though I still don't regard myself as one.

I see no problem why someone can't have multiple styles. I'm sure that I'm not the only one here who likes both a masculine AND a feminine look. Why choose one? These days, I'm comfortable in skirts, heels and makeup but I haven't stopped enjoying wearing just my heels, jeans and a dress shirt without the extra glitter and glam. Not to mention all my completely masculine styles I enjoy wearing that are no less stylish. Sometimes, I take advantage of the little benefit we guys have over women where society expects us NOT to put much effort in our look. It's great to take advantage of on lazy days or when I'm in a rush.

The bottom line is that the choice between masculine/feminine is pretty much only relevant to us. The fact is that society still views a guy in normal masculine clothing + heels as a feminine guy. Deal with it in the best manner which is to dress how you like without thinking about what other people think of you. Build your confidence and be comfortable with yourself (the best answer to why you wear what your wear is "I like the style", that's it). MOST would find it strange, MOST won't care. Those that DO CARE, who cares?
