To crossdress or not to crossdress..... That is the question
So, today was the first day since I decided to "just be me" that I've had this come up. I'm feeling particularly feminine today and had to ask myself "do I want to do a Heather day or just be a feminine guy?" On one hand, I do like the way I look when I go all out and on the other, I just want to be comfy. Since I'm working from home this week (kids are off from school), I have the freedom to dress any way I please so Heather is certainly an option today. I knew that I wanted to wear a skirt and tights or leggings, but those can work for guys too (there are quite a few who are doing it these days). I debated it for a while and settled on a pair of purple leggings, denim mini skirt and my 2 tone purple Cirque du Soleil t-shirt. My daughter picked out a small pair of earrings with purple stones in them and I'm being a feminine guy today.
I don't need to be Heather to be comfortable and since I have the freedom to dress how I like I am actually quite happy being a feminine guy. This brought up an interesting thought. We all see effeminate males as gay because that is how society accepts them. But what if what I am doing was as socially acceptable as the effeminate gay male? Would we see many feminine guys in skirts and tights, yet still presenting as male? I'm not cross dressing since I am not trying to appear female today, no more than a female who wears her hair short and wears baggy jeans and work boots is cross dressing. It's an interesting question to ponder.
