Alright....Stop the Madness!

LOL, Hades.

Hey, I was wondering. Do you have to shave legs with pantyhose? I would think that we men, with much bushier leg hair than women, would not be able to wear sheer pantyhose without shaving. Are these men also shaving their legs?

This whole thing appears to be spinning way out of control.

I mean - shaving my pubes is one thing. That serves a sexual enjoyment function. But, legs? Give me a break. I'm not shaving my fucking legs.

Well, you can certainly wear pantyhose w/o shaving, but you wind up with weird flattened whorls of hair all over your legs-- like if a robber of a bank had a beard, only it's your legs.

Don't you remember those Joe Namath commercials?

When I was in seventh grade, and still relatively new to wearing hose instead of tights, I came to school once with leg stubble poking through my hose. Very embarrassing! I never made that mistake again.

I did order some of these, and I'm a bit excited about wearing them!

I think I want a pair.

I've never seen someone look so hot in such stupid pants.

I bet they can be comfy.






I hate pantyhose myself. Tights are OK. I like tights as an under layer when it is really cold (double digits below zero F).

My guy used to work deck on a Coast Guard icebreaker, sometimes in the North Atlantic, and sometimes in the Arctic.

They had decent gear provided, but early in his career one of the crusty old salts told all the younger guys to just get over it, and buy a few pairs of tights (not the sheer hose that women wear - more along the lines of the modern version of those utilitarian things we wore as kids), to wear under even their longjohns, which in turn were under their Coast Guard gear, for the worst of the worst days.

It wasn't easy, because my guy was a big guy, but he found a brand of plus-size tights that didn't squish his kit, and he was a convert. I think the trick is to find something in the right size, so it's loose enough around the genitals, but still snug enough everywhere else to provide the warmth. I know some hunters wear tights, too, in the winter woods. They really are surprisingly warm.

Girl, bulldog face will cry if he finds out you have a pair.

I have been known to wear long johns in cold weather...

I feel the cold...

They're called crash pants.

I also ordered these (already have a helmet):

knee


elbow


wrist


I'm ready for battle!

That's not the same thing, though. That's like comparing a surfer's wetsuit to the above abominations.

You know, it's this exact kind of gender bigotry which yearly results in untold incidents of violence against innocent people in the LGBT communities and beyond, not to mention the amount of psychological abuse that goes on in schools and homes across the world.

I'd hate to think making a Flatbush joke meant I was being hateful towards genderqueer folk. Bush-flattening transcends gender.
