My response to cross dressing

I have seen on here some resentful remarks about crossdressing, not just from males as I would expect, but from females as well. To be fair men have had to accept women cross dressing for decades now and that is supposed to be totally OK seeing women living in jeans, leggings, shorts, sports trousers, joggers etc. Personally I grew up seeing women wearing skirts and dresses when they went out shopping, to a pub restaurant or cafe and just in ordinary everyday life. They looked great then and I always loved those clothes which is why I now prefer to dress in skirts and dresses myself. I love feeling the flowing materials (nothing sexual) and wearing the very kind of clothes that I wish today`s women would wear themselves. Give me a chiffon skirt or dress and a lovely lacey petticoat (waist slip or full slip) and I feel totally happy and more natural than ever.

Just bored of the hairy handed bullshit.

You know what I wish you could get? Like the verbal equivalent of fucking Bromide.

Oooo AS never seen you so cross, 😀

I bloody loved the mushroom double Swiss. I've not been in a Burger King for decades though. I don't think they do them anymore.

I don't think they do. They remain my all time favourite burger.

What are sports trousers?

Trousers to play golf in? Or shoot in?

Trackie bottoms, I thought. Some kind of cheap and horrible nylon. The kind you get static off of if you scrub your feet on carpet tiles.

We had roast dinner yesterday and we’re having the leftovers today. On a Sunday.

Why the fuck has nobody thought of this before?

JulesJules · 07/06/2026 20:05

Just stir fry here, but I did make a lemon drizzle cake yesterday whilst wearing jeans (sadly I don't have a gingham pinny)

I had spaghetti bolognaise (veggie) too.

I thinned out my carrots (first thining) so i thought these skinny long carrots could be put with spaghetti it worked well.

After that my husband was so impressed with my culinary offering, that he ripped off my gingham pinny, and shagged me blind. I didn’t even have time to take my knee high socks off, and my bunches are all askew.

I wonder if knowing at least some mumsnet posters don’t find it remotely controversial or interesting is disappointing?

Turkey and beef bacon? This is a thing?

Turkey bacon is big in the US. Usually served in diners offering a pretence of a Full English

I tried recreating Burger King's mushroom double Swiss for tea by adding mushrooms to my Rustler cheeseburger. It was nice, but not a patch on the real thing. But then cheap imitations rarely do match up to the real thing.

Beef bacon is worse than turkey bacon

Gross. You can call it bacon, but it will never taste right.

MelOfTheRoses · 07/06/2026 19:41

Ah - women don't women properly so man has to do it better.

It tasted like thin cured slices of cow pat

Ewww

Oh the OP is most definitely a ‘cross dresser’ in the traditional meaning of the term. 😂😂😂

Like turkey bacon. What the hell is that all about? Just admit that you're turkey rather than pretending to be an inferior version of pork.

That's nice for you.
Starting from being terrified of pantomime dames as a kid I've always given men in frocks a wide berth.

What utter tosh.

Why does any one have to support a male person's clothing choices? Why is this a thread on a feminist board except to attempt to get women's attention and approval?
