I agree.. I hate wearing dresses and I'm 100% straight.

Depends entirely on the dress. Evening gowns, sure, but if we're talking a basic light sundress or something, few things are comfier. Same goes for really long skirts.

If you're thin, I think you'd look great in a dress. Though I'd probably also love to see you in a cami and skinny jeans.

& 58 There are two holes in your reasoning. First of all the OP is from United States and if a dude wears a skirt in the US he either has serious mental problems or is gay. Secondly it wasn't a skirt it was a dress plus he had make-up on, something i'm sure no Scotsmen does, and if you find one send me a picture to post on failblog. Final Verdict... GAY

60- There are problems with your reasoning too, particularly in that it's based on what people like to call "bigotry." Two facts: 1. Mental illness is no longer defined by deviance alone, and hasn't been for some time. There's two more D's in there, if I remember my basic psychology correctly... 2. Homosexuality is no longer considered a mental disorder. And that's when we leave aside the fact that you've assumed that a man in a dress MUST be gay. If you're looking for mental disorders, there are two other, far more likely explanations. 1. He is a transvestite 2. He is transexual But we can rule out 1 because he wasn't sexually aroused by wearing the dress. And we can rule out 2 because he hasn't expressed any conviction that he is actually a woman. So really, he's just a dude who thinks a dress is comfy. Who gives a flying ****.

"First of all the OP is from United States and if a dude wears a skirt in the US he either has serious mental problems or is gay." No. Not true. People will judge him and think that he may be gay. Goodness so many people in the US are so close minded (don't get me wrong, I'm from the US too..). You really can't blame him for thinking it's comfortable, alot of dresses are! And I'm sure for guys it's nice and...breezy.... ...yeah...

# 66 i should have been more specific. i never meant that he was actually gay. But if any of my friends had put on a dress and make-up the first thing that would come into my head would be the word gay, whether they actually were or not wouldn't matter. Call it bigotry if you want but I don't think a man should be wearing a dress and make-up and be enjoying himself. The situation was gay.

Why shouldn't a man be wearing a dress and make-up and enjoy himself doing it? I don't even know where to begin with that one. For one, historically, make-up has been used for both men and women and only relatively recently in society has it been decided that men shouldn't wear make-up. Similarly, while western society has generally labeled dresses as feminine, across the world dresses and dress-like garments have also been worn by men. There is no reason to restrict these things to women except that "everyone else says so" and, quite frankly, that is just stupid. Please, in words that don't reduce to "it's what I'm used to", explain to me what is so inherently feminine about dresses or make-up. Further, even if you do manage to explain what is inherently feminine about them (which, of course, you can't), what's wrong with a guy doing something inherently feminine? Again, this is something that will be reduced to "it's what I'm used to", and that is just bullshit. And, yes, it is bigotry if you say a man shouldn't wear female-designated clothing. There is nothing wrong with transvestism, and it's not as if such people are affecting you in any way. Even further, gay is not the same as transvestite, and transvestite is not the same as gay. There are many people who are the former but not the latter or who are the latter but not the former and one does *not* imply the other. And, finally, *nothing* about this situation is gay unless after putting on the dress he proceeded to have sex with the other guys or something.

There's 2 holes in many things. One of them being your wife.

Amen. Society tells us what is and is not "acceptable" because something becomes the norm and as we all know, people who go outside that norm in any way must be shunned, corrected or destroyed. We like neat little categories for things so we don't have to think too far outside the box, and having a bifurcated gender system in social roles, appearance, actions and clothing is much easier for the people incapable of higher thought.

While I agree with most of what you said, you don't have to be sexually aroused to consider yourself a transvestite.

#118 - I think you're just gay and scared to come out of the closet. I'm 100% sure that dressing and feeling like a woman is shunned because of the direct relation it has with homosexual behavior. You're more in touch with your feminine side, yes, but that's only because you like dick.

Yes folks, you heard it here first! Clothing officially deemed to be feminine nature causes an instant, powerful and complex neurological change, in which straight men become gay, never to return to heterosexual preference again. No, it doesn’t work the same way for women or to turn from gay to straight. I mean, THAT would be nuts! So don’t try on mommy’s panties, not even once- it only takes a second!
