        Eh, to each their own I guess. I don’t like how snug the bodice looks, nor am I a fan of constantly managing my leg positioning and monitoring the breeze lest I expose myself - and that is without even mentioning sun protection. But you do you.

        As a cis-het male, I am absolutely clueless about how comfortable or uncomfortable skirts are, let alone a cute dress like that.

        Maybe we’re missing out, guys.

          You can be cis-het and wear a sundress if you want to. Once you buy one, it stops being “women’s clothes” and becomes your clothes.

            Yeah, no. First of all, good luck finding one that fits my physique well. And then, I don’t think that’s how living in a society works, unfortunately.

            I won’t judge people who do, but I lack both the self-esteem and the dysphoria-driven desperation to pull it off myself, nonetheless.

          Guys are absolutely missing out because skirts and dresses are awesome. Sometimes on hot days, I’ll move my skirt more because it’s hot and my partner says I’m “cooling down the vag”. He’s absolutely correct, it feels great on hot days and I bet guys would love it if y’all would try it out. Get yourself a kilt and go for it man.

            Sometimes when it’s super hot and I have a large skirt on, I stand next to the AC unit and put my skirt over it. Absolute heaven

                Half baked sort-of meme:

                What guys think feminine solidarity is:

                <Gossipping about dates and sharing makeup advice>

                The feminine solidarity that guys don’t see:

                “Putting your skirt over the AC unit feels amazing


                Idk why, but this tickles me a lot. I think it’s because I know what it looks like to have a large circle skirt draped over an AC unit, and it’s distinctly unfeminine.

              Eh, I’m at a stage where the gender binary makes zero sense when it comes to appearance and socialisation. Why do women wear dresses and men don’t? Because dead people decided that men should dress one way, and women another, and we still cut about like any of that shit matters. I like to wear dresses not because I might be trans, but because I like dressing pretty. I’m a man who likes to wear swishy skirts around the house, and it doesn’t bother my wife.

              Fat Mike said it best.

                yeah I think I’m around that stage too, I really don’t care for my appearance in that way too much but I try to comply in public to keep my job

                i might dress and put a wig or something on halloween, my husband doesnt really care that much on my gender, he is a self declared pansexual and we joke a lot around me being trans or not

                it’s difficult to put myself in any strict gender when i barely feel like performing as a person and it looks like a pain in the ass to perform femininity (i’m also very tall so performing masc is just existing for me)
