So I’ve not been feeling very good for quite a while (basically since this year) and it taking quite a toll I floundered to anything that could bring me at least the smallest amount of happiness, which brought me onto a memory I had with my wife years ago about why women wear frilly underwear, to which she (not accurately) responded “well, sometimes when you’re not feeling the best, wearing it makes you feel nice”. I also got (as a lot of us do) random weird ads from Wish, one of which advertised lace styled underwear designed for men.
I took the plunge and thought “f*** it, the worst that’ll happen is I wasted £2” after 1 failed attempt, 1 better try but still a bit picky with the results, I decided to go all in and buy some women’s underwear. It made me feel bold, confident, sexy, yet gave me a kind of new found innocence, like being a kid again with so much to explore and so much life left to live.
I initially thought this would be as far as it would go, but my head kept saying “well you’ve come this far, how about a little further?” And with that I started to look at dresses and skirts. Taking yet another plunge I ordered 3 dresses, unfortunately being inexperienced in dresses 2 of them didn’t quite give me that boost I craved, until I tried the third dress! I ran around the house picking up anything and everything I could find to go with it and make multiple outfit ideas. I asked my wife if she could take a picture of me in 1 one particular outfit and burst into tears over how overwhelmingly happy looking like that made me feel! So much so that I’ve debated where I could go to show off my new look.
As confident as I feel right now though, I’m still not sure how (or even if) I’ll be able to broach it with certain people in my life and family members (which is why I’m currently only posting this on tumblr). But it’s baby steps and I’ve always got my mind to tell me “well you’ve come this far, how about a little further?” Which is why I wrote this post in the first place, a few weeks ago I was anxious about revealing even the thought of trying things out to my wife, but with the love, understanding and support she has given me, it feels like it’s brought us even closer together. Who knows where else it will lead us?
I work in distribution at a hospital, it’s amazing how many people (especially doctors and nurses) will walk straight through a doorway, forcing me to stop regardless of how heavy the cage I’m pushing is. May have to adopt this technique and update you on the results.
