I’ve mentioned before that the difference between a freestyler and a crossdresser is that a freestyler just wants the option to wear the clothes associated with the opposite sex. Without judgement about their sexuality or sanity. Even mix up the clothing. Blending a style that is both male and female from time to time. It’s…
I don’t really get political here, but I have to address this. There was a recent news story about a British private school introducing gender neutral clothing. The boys at the school can choose to wear skirts if they like or the females can wear pants. My impression is that I probably have a lot of liberal…
If I end up repeating the same subjects over and over again it’s only beause I’m passionate about them and truthfully, this topic as a whole is not nearly as vast as it first might seem. In the end, us fashion freestylers want not just the freedom (which we technically already have) but also the…
1. Dismay The first stage is complete dismay at something. People are put off by it and don’t know what to think. They may even seem hostile toward it because it’s new and/or different and they feel threatened by it. 2. Mockery The second stage is mockery. At this point the initial shock is gone…
“To take something that is socially feminine and attempt to make it more socially acceptable for a male.” I’ve seen this happen in the fashion freestyle movement and even in situations where a regular guy (who is not trying to push boundaries) finds some utility in something feminine and desires to make it more socially…
We have a very strange position on nudity in general. Clothing is a tool. A form of technology. It has four core utilitarian purposes: 1. Keep us warm during cold times and protect us from the harsh sun. 2. Protect us from the environment. Like rain, tree branches, or rocks we might scrape against. As…
Social norms are a lot like religious beliefs, they are in fact beliefs and are often based on superstition, fear and misunderstanding. They should be challenged and pitted against objective reality. Objective reality is the real world and how it actually exists without human participation. For example, the sun exists and it is what it…
In many ways casual crossdressing is really on the front lines of fashion freedom. One could consider it a temporary solution to a permanent future trend. A first step if you will. Unlike classic crossdressing which tends to be more fetish, with men dressing in full drag and taking on a female alter ego. Casual…
Probably one of the hardest hurdles we face is our sexuality in the public space. Maybe you are gay or bisexual or straight, it doesn’t matter. That’s a separate issue. A womans sexuality is not called into question when she wears jeans. That’s because most women wear jeans today at some point or another, even…
It’s hard to find a community of casual crossdressers. Most are traditional crossdressers. They want to be seen as women when they crossdress and thus they get all dolled up in bras, dresses, long wigs, high heels, full make-up, etc. They even give themselves female names and try to emulate female curves using silicon appliances….
