it’s okay!
I would love to but i dont think it would suit me. I have a very broad rectangle body
I will beat you with a 2x4 if you try taking my baggy clothes from me.
So presenting masculine is not attractive?
I dunno why but I’m somehow bothered by the post on an emotional level. I do not want to accuse anybody, it’s primarily my own issue of course.
The first thing I thought of was transgender men getting told to present feminine. I think nobody should be told how they should dress.
I know it’s a meme and I am taking this a bit too seriously.
Anyways skirts are cool and can be cute and feminine like in the op or cool and masculine like a kilt. It’s a very versatile garment everybody could wear more often.
I think of this as analogous to the movement to get women to wear pants. It’s not that we wanted them to present as masculine; it’s that we wanted pants to stop being masculine and start being just clothes. Basically all masculine coded attire became androgynous, but almost no feminine code attire did.
It’s not like skirts are inherently feminine either. There are plenty of examples across cultures and time of it being perfectly normal for men to wear them.
calling skirts + crop top attractive is not the same as calling only that attractive. i hope this helps you make peace with this post
Don’t need a skirt for that.
ngl skirts sound pretty comfortable
Ok but I actually want that skirt… where can I find one?
If you’re from the eu, I’d suggest looking on emp
Sadly I’m no longer in the EU… (Thanks Brexit…)
They ship to the uk
Need more places that sell crop tops and skirts in men’s sizes :( most of the places that do are selling fetishwear that’s kinda poor quality. Also, I personally hate ordering things online, and prefer being able to try clothes on in a store before I buy them, but that is very heavily discouraged for people who look masc.
Edit: Just so other femboys know, there is one brick and mortar store you can absolutely go to; your local queer thriftstore! If you don’t have a local queer thriftstore…idk man that’s a sign to move in the current political climate. My post is more just saying we need more.
Women’s skirts work just fine for men. You just need to translate between sizing scale, which is not that difficult (although it is annoying unless you are in person and can actually try things on).
Crop tops are much more difficult to buy, as a lot of those really look bad if you don’t have breasts.
So I’m a woman who loves shopping. But I’m a very short woman and I prefer to shop from the petite section - for most stores, petites are only offered online, if they’re offered at all
So I do a LOT of online shopping and returning. I would also prefer to be able to try things on in stores before purchasing, but a lot of times I literally don’t have that option. So essentially I try stuff in the privacy of my own home. I prefer to shop online from stores in my area and then return in-person, but a lot of places offer free mail returns too.
Point is, if you’re returning women’s clothes to a store, no one needs to know they were ordered for you. Maybe you’re shopping for your wife, maybe she’s disabled so she can’t get out and shop for herself, or maybe you just love buying her presents. Nothing is stopping you from lying to cashiers if they asked - but usually it’s just “was anything wrong with the item” and you just say “no it just didn’t work out/didn’t fit her/I ordered two sizes and she’s keeping the one that fits.”
The best stores will list either garment measurements or suggested physical measurements for the sizes they offer. If you know your own measurements, this should help you make informed decisions until you get to know your sizes at various brands (…and even then, it will still vary widely! 😏)
Looking at women’s plus size options may show you options that are more accommodating of broader shoulders, etc.
Now I imagine being a man pretending to be shopping for my wife, saying it just didn’t fit her, while the cashier is looking with suspition at the skirt I’m wearing.
Oh don’t get me wrong, I know my sizes and have places to shop online. Femboy apparel is also a rapdily growing market, and I try to keep fresh with new sites.
I’m just a weird romantic. I like the nostalgic idea of going to a mall with friends, trying on some clothes, and buying maybe one thing. There’s a lot more issues with buying things physically in general now, beyond just my niche. Finding a mall that doesn’t scream “beached whale” is tough nowadays, so it’s just longing for a simpler time.
I’m also kinda an asshole speaking from a place of privilege, because I live in a place large enough to have a queer district where I can thrift. That’s basically Femboy Aeropostale. I just think it would be cool if there was a chain that catered to femme attire for men.
I’m a men’s M, usually women’s XL fits me (sometimes XXL). Just for reference, maybe that can help you?
Skirts yes, crop tops… Listen I know me and this gut was made for balancing a pint of Häagen-Dazs while on the couch, not crop tops.
There’s a guy at the local punk bar here with a gut and a big ass beard who I’ve seen multiple times in a crop top and daisy dukes.
Guy looks fantastic.
This gut was made for faking touches on the trackpad while I try to write code on the sofa
Disable the trackpad, problem solved.
TrackPoint supremacy.
I love the nub, but this is a Surface on which I installed Linux out of a combination of spite and a desire to actually get some work done.
I also solved the issue by shedding those extra 20 pounds I had somehow managed to pack on
A male friend of mine is on the bigger side and he looks absolutely fabulous in crop tops
Aren’t skirts and dresses supposed to give proper ventilation for your dick?
Well, that and hide more knives on your body.
I like how they also outlined the brain
You mean the spider?
Is that what that is? Huh… Guess I should have zoomed in more
I think the Scottish figured that one out
Let’s get some shit out of the way here.
-
your chub looks great in a crop top, I swear. Start believing it, others do.
-
your chest/belly hair looks great too
Alright, with that business out of the way, proceed.
Hashtag free the dad bod
what about leg and arm hair? do they look good too?
Yes oh yes they do.
Yaaass free hairy bellies :3
-
Eveyone should be cute and pretty :3
I’m trying, okay?🥲
Wrong, you arent just trying. You are cute and pretty :3
We’ll get there!
skirts are some of the most efficient and comfortable clothes and it’s honestly bullshit i can’t wear them without being called slurs
The Scots have known this for centuries 🏴
Not for me unfortunately. The inner parts of my thighs get very sore when I wear my kilt :(
I’m about to start wearing my kilt in the rural south. It’ll be interesting to see how it goes.
Wore mine down in Texas a few months ago, albeit it was to the rennaissance festival. Got some weird stares at the stops on the way though haha
I took a DNA test and found out I’m mostly Scottish (family always said English and Polish) so maybe I will too.
To be honest I feel very attractive when I’m wearing a nice suit and tie.
But I wear comfy clothes, joggers and hoodies, because it’s comfy. Most guys don’t give a fuck about looking good.
Skirts are hella comfortable tho. Super easy to put on too. Would absolutely be my legwear of choice (at least outside of winter) if I could do that without people thinking I’m weird.
Fair enough, I respect that for sure. I’ve worn skirts and they aren’t bad but I run hot so I always feel cold, maybe that’s why I like to be cozied up in joggers and hoodies haha.
But yeah, with how the world is going, it’s less and less safe to do things outside the norm. I wish you good luck and hope happiness comes to you.
Ah yea I’m the opposite, I’m always too warm to the point where I’ll often be out in a t shirt while most people are wearing jackets over a sweatshirt, so skirts would just be optimal.
It’s not even as much of a safety issue for me (since while I’m actually super weak I do not look that way at all), but my social anxiety just won’t allow that.
All the best to you to, may you continue to be comfy.
I don’t think anyone wants to be looking at my gut
there are folks who would sexually objectify your gut, don’t even play with me dog
