Re: Revelations
I bought a pair of skin tight, stretchy red tights maybe 30 years ago, and wore them jogging and walking in the park.
I was in DRAB. Don't know how well it was accepted back then, but it felt pretty nice.

Re: Revelations
Interesting article Donna, thanks for sharing.
One more thing that many men would do in a heartbeat if they didn't fear being labeled "odd"... get rid of their facial hair. Funny enough, I got laser facial hair treatments years ago. Do you now how many people have ever made any comment (to me) about my lack of facial hair. Zero, zip, none. So, I'll keep on calling kittens and babies "cute" and stuff like that.

Re: Revelations
Hmm- good idea, why does anyone need facial hair, or hair anywhere on their body.
Little by little I have developed a fetish to shave my whole body.
It started in the hospital when I had hernia surgery, two nice young nurses had to shave me.
Any other time that would have been a treat. That started my trimming. Never went back to bushy.

Re: Revelations
I find it interesting that there is a possibility that there would be a ton more of us, if this was socially acceptable.
I noticed another double standard when it comes to hobbies, the quilt guy, it's perfectly ok for a woman to want to do "manly" things but if a guy wants to do something that is seen as girly people will give him grief over it.

Well, we all have a face
That we hide away forever
And we take them out
And show ourselves when everyone has gone

Honestly even if I wasn't CD I would probably want the facial hair gone, because I'm lazy.Gaby Romani wrote:Interesting article Donna, thanks for sharing.

Some guys can't grow thick facial hair, so it's not noticeable if a guy doesn't have any.

My wife is a quilter and there are a number of men who quilt, some are renowned artists with it.Stephanie M wrote:I noticed another double standard when it comes to hobbies, the quilt guy, it's perfectly ok for a woman to want to do "manly" things but if a guy wants to do something that is seen as girly people will give him grief over it.
People just need to quit being afraid.

Re: Revelations
My grandfather who was 100% man did needlepoint towards the end of his life. It helped him stimulate the brain and kept his hand eye coordination in shape. So it's not uncommon for guys to do stuff like that. I was just mentioning there seems to be a double standard for stuff like that. It's though of as cool if a girl likes 4 wheeling, fishing, hunting and so forth.

Rosie Greer is a knitter, and an excellent one at that.Stephanie M wrote:I noticed another double standard when it comes to hobbies, the quilt guy, it's perfectly ok for a woman to want to do "manly" things but if a guy wants to do something that is seen as girly people will give him grief over it.
Shooting used to be a "man's sport / hobby" but not any more. I can easily out-shoot experienced 'guys' with handguns, and had to prove myself to earn all of my instructor ratings. However, it is harder (but not impossible) for me to out-shoot some of them when it comes to rifles unless I'm in the benchrest or prone positions . . . and that is strictly due to differences in upper-body strength.
