Just a quick question I have noticed that a lot of the converstations on some of the Transgendered and T-Girls web sites. That there is a lot of partners of T-Girls & Transgendered do not like them dressing em-femm. But it seems strange that most women can crossdress and there partners don't say nothing. I know that its a lot to do with the fashion industry with them its trendy so they can get away with it. What do you think?

But Chrissy it was the men that wore the wigs and makeup and perfume and the silk shirts and loads of ruffles... yes the men were the peacocks..

It was also the men that decided not to be the peacocks not the women...

Even when they tried to bring in skirts for men, what happened.. yes men decided .... NO WAY

A lot of women today tends to wear what is practical.... slacks, jeans and jumpers and flat shoes and trainers..
One would not go rambling across the hillside or painting in high heels and a designer dress..

Personally it is the guys who dug their own hole

This is not about the clothe its about attitude, some women feel thretened and they feel thar if there freinds find out about what they concider a fetish then they will become laughing stocks, I know this to be true ive been there

My girl friend does not mind me dressing , even goes out with me being dressed up to the nines sometimes.

The only condition she lays down is that I do not outshine her.

What is a poor T- Girl to do ?

Hugs and Kisses

Well of course I use to be married to self confessing cross-dresser. She use to pinch my clothes, and yet she did not like cross dressing. Mind you women cross Dressing was not always so acceptable. Joan of Arc was burnt at the stake for cross dressing, and women were spat on in streets in 1920's for wearing male garb. In a book called rogues and villains, 3/4of cross dressers isted from history are always women. I work with cross dresser, she wear suits and will not (as she tells me) ever consider wearing female garb such as skirts, dresses, slacks etc. No one barters eyelid, but if I came in a dress it is a different matter. But things are changing. On LCC course on Equality and Diversity, a question was given to us "What do you say if a co worker comes to work dressed as woman" - And answer Council wanted was "hello". That though is civil service. Women have fought the battle and won, it is up to men to do same - and in that I agree with Lynda.

I wonder how a man would feel if his wife or girlfriend said

"Darling!.... I must confess I like wearing suits!... I want to wear a mans suit just to see what it feels like!.... I want my body hair to grow........ I want to achieve the Rab C Nesbit, Brian Blessed Look!........I want to go out like this!........ Please be assured I still want to be a woman and I'm not a Lesbian!......... But it would be great If we both could go out together!.........Whaddya say.......;)

I wonder eh!

Well said Linz. I have often thought on similar lines of what if my wife said that sort of thing to me. "Can I borrow a few of your clothes, you know, a pair of 'Y' fronts, shirt, trousers and your lace-up brown shoes" But that is not realy fair to think that, as I never wear HER clothes, I have brought my own! Plus my wife NEVER wears make-up, is repulsed by the idea of me painting her nails and wears trousers 99% of the time (her own)

And as I sit here writing this i am wearing ------;)

Linzi you are a cracker
You are perfectly correct

But I have worked with a woman who did dress as a man

Ok she was a doctor her clothing was as follows Donky Jacket t shirt and jeans mens boots No hair all shaved off

The truth is it was the war effort that started ladies wareing truosers
befor this a woman would not dare ware anythig other than a skirt or dress

I did try doing my joinery work in a skirt once, 10 min later it was gone I was back to jeans, a lot more practical.

Women have an image of what a man should dress like. It goes back many generations Ruby was told off by a ladie freind of hers for dressing our 3 day old son in pink

Ruby said why who cares its clean and grandmar knitted it with love

Don't care she said its girly though it away. No said Ruby

Boys are boys and girls are girls from Birth

Sad but true

Its all this image of what we should be. Deviate and you will get stick,
bullied and laughed at

She......the wife/girl friend lives in this world she is afraid of this being the laughing stock

Sorry but its true
