i was looking (oK drolling) at pics today and saw a really nasty comment about a guy wearing panties and it got me thinking about how difficult it must be to be a man. being a woman gives me soooo much freedom. sure, maybe i am sometimes feel that that i am being descriminated against or viewed as a sex object but i have so many other freedoms. i can wear boxer shorts or a g-string and no one comment. sandals, tennies or heels and it is fine. i put the stuffed animal that hubby gave me in college on my desk and it is ok. i become unhappy and start to cry and it is ok--no one says i am a wimp. shorts, skirt or pants are ok. i never feel that my clothes need to be devoid of color and, if they are, i can add something to brighten it up. makeup--no make up---is ok. long or short hair---i can change my hair color as frequently as i want, i can dress in mens clothes and not have a word said. i could go out, dressed in mens cloths, no make up and a short hair cut and the worse comment that i would hear was that maybe i was a dyke but most likely i would be seen as male with soft features.

but a guy, heaven help him. if he does not fit into a predetermined mold, he is as wimp, gay, fag, girl, pussy. pick an unflatering name, and he will be called that---by both men and women.

to be xxxxxx to live such a confined life style must be horrible. and to come to nn and have other members be critical of you because of your clothing choices or outward appearance is beyond belief.
