  • Flare Jeans - I find most jeans bit uncomfortable to wear and hate how tight it feels around bottom part of my legs. Thought I tried Flare Jeans which could only find one for women the shops near me so I tried them and it feels much better. One thing I don't like is the short pocket which is insane men's trouser have larger pocket where I can store my phone without it hanging out. Someday, I do need to try learn DIY so I can sew larger pockets on my jeans lol.
  • Crop Top - I blame Britney Spears but I do find crop tops really cute. Wish I have more self-confident to wear it more but sadly the area I'm in is highly homophobic.

I know the two in the past is seen unisex (any clothes is unisex if you don't give a damn) but it seems nowadays, it associated to only women's fashion.

Dresses and skirts.

I’m a guy, but I really enjoy wearing floaty skirts around the house, particularly when the temperature drops, but not that much. Trousers are too warm, but a long skirt keeps my legs warm enough, while still allowing airflow.

Also, it makes me feel pretty, and I like that.

I do wish I felt I could dress that way outside, but I’m not that brave.

I’m not trans or anything. My partner says I’m their whoopsie, like Captain Shakespeare from Stardust.

I dunno. I’m 45 now, and my partner is non-binary. The older I get, the less sense gender makes to me. Obviously, there can be biological differences, but when it comes to clothing it feels stupid to me that half the population are frowned at for wearing particular items of clothing.

-Men’s tank tops! They’re better material-wise and longer Also I agree on the pockets 100%. Women only need to carry pebbles and pennies apparently.

Or buying overpriced handbag just to put my phone somewhere without holding it in my hands or it poking out my pocket.

Big fashion uses small pockets to sell more! I didn’t know that but it makes sense. It explains why gendered clothing is such a thing in the first place. More $$$

Spots leggings are so good. I know they're technically unisex but a ton of people think they're for women. I do wear a pair of small shorts over it just so my junk isnt fully exposed.

Do you find it quite nice to wear tight fitting, stretchy clothing? That’s been an unexpected side effect of my adventures into wearing women’s clothing. And it’s not a sex/kink thing either. It just feels, I dunno, comforting.
