Would you sleep with a male partner in women's underwear

Curious because of previous experience! What would you do if your partner said he liked wearing women's underwear (pants/stockings) and wanted to wear during sex? I said no thanks!
IABU - don't care if he wants to wear it/find it sexy

IANBU - keep it for solo wanking/eeeeewwww

I wouldn't have a problem with this. I don't know her prob look quite hot in stockings. Probably find a bra a bit weird but if it turned him on and he was clearly enjoying it and it wasn't every time we had sex I would be fine with it.

JMSA · 05/01/2024 00:57

Nope.

EdinGirl · 05/01/2024 01:09

No. Instant turn off.

But I know some women who genuinely don't mind and/or think it's hot.

I also know one or two that have agreed due to pressure of "shaming gender expression" 🙄

Fairylightfurore · 06/01/2024 01:35

No because it would be a massive turn off for me.

aurynne · 06/01/2024 03:15

A man in women's clothing, including underwear, would be a massive turnoff for me, so I simply wouldn't sleep with them because they would not be my partner in any case.

Beargrumps22 · 06/01/2024 17:03

each to their own etc etc but no from me. i have known someone into this but it made me feel a bit ick

PonyPatter44 · 06/01/2024 17:09

Interesting choice of zombie thread. I wouldn't be interested in a man who wanted to wear women's underwear. Not my thing and that sort of man wouldn't appeal to me. A man who wore (mens) silk boxers, however...a somewhat different story.

When I was younger I briefly worked in a costume shop- packaged halloween outfits, cheap wigs, Leg Avenue sets etc. One afternoon an older man came up to the counter to ask me to help him. He picked out a wig and stockings and other lingerie bits. He was visibly, agitatedly excited about it -litterly drooling out the corners of his mouth. I, trying to make small talk, asked if he had a lot of wigs. He told me that no he didn't since his wife wasn't into 'all that stuff' but she had died yesterday so now he could. I still think about that poor women and the fact that her husband was happily rubbing one out in tacky stockings and a cheap wig before she was even in the ground.

That is so disturbing....

A female that wears her partners collard shirt and boxer shorts is considered 'sexy'... but a male wearing panties is considered 'Ick'... ???

Good grief, can we end all this nonsense about "if men want to wear women's underwear they must be trans and perverts"?

I thought we were pushing back on the idea that the clothes you wear define your gender identity. A man wearing a skirt or a bra is still a man. Let clothes be clothes.

No 'we' are not pushing back on that idea.
Some people in society are trying to push back against it and force it onto the rest of us.
You seem to be ignoring the elephant in the room that a man wearing a skirt or bra is likely to be trying to pretending to be a woman on some level.

Tarquina · 16/03/2024 04:49

No. Massive turn off.

SallyWD · 16/03/2024 08:52

Erm... I wouldn't particularly like it but I wouldn't be repulsed either. If it was only occasionally wearing a pair of knickers then I don't think I'd end a relationship over it.

jeaux90 · 17/03/2024 10:10

No. It's a gross fetish.

Brexile · 17/03/2024 10:17

No. Completely ick-inducing. Male cross dressing is usually incompatible with a relationship IME, unless some kind of marriage of convenience. One good thing about the trans madness is that it's flushed out those kind of weirdos, who are more likely to say what they want up front so you can bin them off without having invested too much time. In the past, they might have waited until they had trapped you with marriage and kids, so you'd be more likely to have to comply with their gross fetishes.

Because male cross dressers are creepy fetishists. Female "cross dressers" (which is less of a thing given that androgynous womenswear is more common than not) just want comfy underwear. If a woman in boxers is sexy, it's probably not on purpose!

Wednesdaysotherchild · 17/03/2024 10:29

No, gives me the ick. Hated rocky Horror show fwiw 😂

Female crossdressing is 'Less' of a thing... C'mon... we wear anything that we want... dresses, skirts, leggings, pants/jeans, shorts, baggy track pants, baggy hoodie sweaters... what ever we feel comfortable in. IMHO 97% of Women crossdress daily... and nobody bats an eye. However, if a man is to wear a skirt... for comfort... it's gross... ???

Brexile · 17/03/2024 10:53

@GenevièveSapha That's precisely my point. Women "cross dress" in trousers daily and nobody bats an eyelid, which means that effectively it's no longer cross dressing because the norms of women's clothing have changed massively in the last few decades. We're not yet at the point where skirts are acceptable everyday wear for men, so a man in a skirt is making a provocative sartorial statement that challenges gender norms, i.e. "cross dressing". In same way, I don't suppose Roman men were subjected to transphobic insults because they wore togas and not trousers: trousers didn't mean you were a bloke, they meant that you were a German barbarian 😂And old Jean-Claude down the road probably isn't carrying his little man-bag (mallette) around because he secretly wears his wife's dresses, but because man bags are a thing where we live. It's all very culturally dependent. :)

MrsSkylerWhite · 17/03/2024 10:57

No thanks.

WaltzingWaters · 17/03/2024 12:43

thats a definite no from me.

Themermaidspool · 18/04/2023 14:12

Depends if it was Tim Curry a la rocky horror show or not

You beat me to it 😆

I would be surprised if a woman wearing comfy loose and clean shirts or shorts gets the same kick as a man wearing lace knickers that are so small and tight they are up his arse.

tensmum1964 · 16/08/2024 19:13

A huge no from me. I think my partner expressing an interest in it, let alone doing it, would put me off of sex with him forever.
