Lol. He's quite big and hairy, yes.
I wondered if you would comment on the 'looking idiotic' bit Cali. I thought you might. I deleted it twice, then left it in because it's true. It's my gut reaction.
If my DH wanted to wear, say, a sarong on the beach, or perhaps wanted to lounge around in a skirtish sort of garment i'd be ok.
(i'd be surprised, as he's the kind of bloke that would say 'i'm not wearing that - it looks like a bloody skirt!', but we're not discussing his attitude, we're discussing mine, so ...)
If, however he wore a skirt which was more obviously a feminine design (pencil skirt? ra ra skirt? flouncy summer skirt) and/or wore the heels to go with, then i would see him parodying a women. I honestly think he would look ridiculous. In my eyes, unless he was larking around, i would think he looked idiotic.
See, on the premise that a man has covered his privates in public i believe:
- He (and ever other man on the planet) has every right to wear what he wants to wear. Absolutely.
- He should be able to wear what he wants without fear of physical or verbal attack.
- This goes for all people, male or female.
but
- I have every right to think someone looks a prat in what they're wearing.
- I have a right to be turned off by something my husband has decided to do.
Neither of the last 2 points impinge on your right to dress as a woman. Or wear woman's clothes. Or how ever you want to describe it. If my husband announced that he has secret desires to start wearing over sized baby clothes around the house i'd be turned off by that too. It might well ruin our relationship.
This too is nothing to do with your desire to wear a skirt. I'm not married to you, I'm married to him. And i'm married to the him he presents and presented himself as when we got together. I have a perfect right not to want to be married to a cross dresser. That doesn't make me a bigot, or in need of educating.
