Transgender I'm not!

With all due respect to the divirsified culture of gays or straights, men sporting control top sheer pantyhose made for men does not mean I am on the road to becoming a transexual. I wear them because I like them, but I dont fancy putting on red pumps, or wearing fish nets for that matter. I am comfortable with myself, and I think the main blame for pantyhose as women's clothing is because it has been synonymous with the female gender for quite some time. Cowboys might have crossdressed, but they did not however pick up a pair of pantyhose made specifically for them as a male macho culture. Tights for men, unfortunitely, has been out of the social limelight as regular attire for men for centuries, and will remain so unless we fail to do something about it. Yes, it takes work, initiative, and strength to start a new fad, not quite yet embraced by the total masses. Yet, in many ways, it is also replenishing what men have worn a very long time ago. Up until now, men sporting tights were required to fly in the sky, or do trampoline acts. Not to mention the wonderful world of sports wrestling, that I dont even want to get into.
Sheer pantyhose, on the other hand, is a very unique subject for the male figure, and I can see why some are dubious about it, and what it might lead to. What it might lead to? You either are into it, or you're not. People who do drugs and alcohol dont need to wear pantyhose, or for that matter can't afford it since thier allowance is spent on other things. People who are fashion conscious, who want to look nice, feel great, and want to wear what works for them are given ample choices now that this new line of pantyhose/tights has been given the official go ahead to the male section of clothing, and who want to do it in the public's eye. No, it will not lead into anything that wouldn't have happened already by itself without pantyhose intervention. Pantyhose does not lead into crossdressing necessarily, I know, because I still do not shop in the women's section of any store. Wearing my mother's clothing is much too wierd.
No, pantyhose for men is where it belongs, in the men's drawer, and ready to wear with anything he already has in his closet or dresser drawer. It is a compliment to his wardrobe, and an extension of one's inner self, and need be, a sexual stimulant to the male organ while wearing it rather than pent up organism. Men wearing sheer tights under sport clothes and dress slacks is perfectly acceptable, and quite frankly, is the way it should be worn. Do not bother with shades of lipstick or nail polish, cause if this is the way to go with pantyhose of your choosing, than you need to go with the ladies pantyhose to complete the look, rather than wear pantyhose made for men with women's clothes. Macho is, as macho does-pantyhose and all.

To hair, is human

I dont agree with those who claim in order to properly wear Activskin made for men, that the fellow must proclaim himself a stand in for female hygene, meaning to begin a leg shaving regiment. That is totally wrong. For a man, in any generation, shaving of legs is optional. Athletic swimmers, bicycle riders and such are all free to shave legs regardless of pantyhose or tights. Same goes for men who are trapeze artists. I dont expect them to shave their legs just because they are involved in a tight wearing high wire act. Just the same kind of principle applies to men who wish to wear pantyhose legwear for men. WE dont have to shave our legs!!
Men deciding to wear pantyhose legwear built for the male tights wearing guy does not imply a trend toward female hygene, or for that matter, a future in dresses or high heels. No I will not shave my legs, because I simply dont have to, and if anyone feels differently, than its just too bad, because I wont, and will NOT do it. I did it once, and it was a pain in the ass. No thank-you, and no I will not change my mind. I most certainly would not expect Superman to shave his legs or armpits because he wears tights from top to bottom, and so it is with pantyhose for men. My mother had her female regiment, and I have mine. I am much too busy with my hectic lifestyle to spend quality time in the bathtub, shaving where I dont have to. Its not part of my job, its apart of someone else's idea of how pantyhose should be worn. But that was pantyhose for women, and they still shave regardless of nylons I hate to say.
Shaving legs is for those who want to, and it is not, by any means a requirement to wear sheer tights for men. In fact, I think it looks sexier the way God intended. Au natural.
Now let me slip my hose on with no conditions intact. P-please.

Sheer, no control top

I actually have experimented with other styles such as item 1730 which is very sheer, light, and has no control top, unlike my favorite but currently going out of stock item A610. 1730 is ok, but its very light and loose around the hip, not form fitting like my 610 which fits like a nylon glove. I still get tan color in either style. Style 1730 is also very condensed when dry and ready to put on, where as 610 is long and breezy. It almost appears like 1730 is very small from randomly glancing at it on the clothes wire, but it stretches and you must be careful putting it on because you feel like your going to break it with any sudden moves. I even hate to have a fingernail protrude any from the sides with the slightest sliver because it feels that is all it will take to make a scratch mark on the hose material of 1730 lightweight construction. One thing about 1730 is the affordability over other styles that are priced ten dollars and above. I dont feel good about buying expensive pantyhose because in the end, all items will faulter no matter how expensive. I give it a week, I always say.
Nothing beats the silk sleekeness of item A610, and I will probably continue to talk about this style long after it has gone out of mens wear existance.
Ive seen photos of packages of pantyhose for men being sold on clothing racks at mens wear stores, but these must be pictures of european stores, because I have never seen pantyhose for men being sold over the counter. Its always online and this makes it a little difficult because I would rather browse the item in person like any other piece of mens underwear. I dont buy fruit of the loom, or white socks online, and I dont see why this has to be any different.
If buying pantyhose for men is also a hush hush risque item of clothing that men will not yet overwhelmingly acknowledge as clothes for men, then I dont see how the marriage for gays battle can ever succeed because even pantyhose for men is hidden from total view of the mainstream mores. You cant possibly have a unanimous vote for something people dont want to see in public, can you? Even illegal drugs eventually get busted into the limelight, which means they have more of a steady following than pantyhose for men, or gay marriage activists.
Which makes the heterosexual stance of standing by the goodness of religious rules to stand against gay unions, and yet indulge in corruption, scandel, murder, abortion, drugs, alcoholism, adultery, and even beastiality. Strange. Its gays and pantyhose for men that sends them over the edge in already a world gone bizarre. I'll stick to pantyhose and gays, any day. Thank-you! Its more my style, even if my style of prefered pantyhose is also going out the door.

Faster than a speeding bullit

OK, so the gay marriage thing isnt working out so easily in California, and in the Golden state, its everybody's problem. The Golden state, however, is a big place from top to bottom (not meant to be a gay reference here), and the real trouble isnt communication, but transportation and people that commute. Lets face it, the gay societies are very regional and sometimes almost isolated. How can the gay society hope to propose a mass union of votes towards an ideal for gay people if they chose to live seperately in the first place. We need to evolve, and that means getting out into regular society who believes gay people all wear make up. Not so, and there are many conservative gays who never quite come out in the open, especially in regions not inhabited by a gay norm.
In comes what I call the saviour of the transportation universe-the bullit train. This idea is before the state of California as a definate possibility, and it really needs to show its true colors, soon. With the invention of the bullit train to be able to commute more readily, easily, and making large regions seem incredibly small, gay people may soon leave the nest of Palm Springs, San Diego, West Hollywood, and San Francisco into the real world of business and technology. No longer keeping gays into safe havens, this leaves the possibilities of gays becoming more of the mainstream employee able to travel at distances never thought possible. Me, Im afraid of flying, and find the long range bus ride somewhat of a drag. Freeways in California take forever to go to one place to another, and the bullit train is just the thing to help bond a sagging ego system in a cultural swamp. I hope the effects of the bullit train which might someday become a much needed reality in California will make this state more accessible, and able to bring various minds together. I'll still be wearing my pantyhose for men legwear on this system also, in public, and in shorts. Thank-you!
