tights secret

markosragnos

I am a male who secretly wears ladies tights. I have been doing this since I was 12 years old. I have no idea how or why this came to be. It doesn't freak me out as much as it did when I was younger when I was traumatised by my behaviour but I still haven't been able to shed much light on it. I know it's a tad "out there" but I thought it might be useful to disclose on a thread here. Anybody out there experience anything similar??? (I realise I may be exposing myself to banter here but all comments are welcome regardless of perspective)

Does it affect your life in any way? Possible relationships? Work? Family life?

If not, then there's nothing really wrong with it.

Although I'm not sure this is the place you'll find people with similar experience, it's not as uncommon as you think and is certainly not the most "out there" fetish I've ever come across ... there's a Wikipedia section on it!

If you want to shed some light on it, a quick google is in order.

But on a day-to-day basis, don't worry about it.

As long as it's not negatively impacting your life, then I wouldn't worry about it.

Sure, it probably isn't very common but if you're not hurting anyone (yourself included), I wouldn't worry.

I know a fella who wears tights under his jeans in winter, he says it's more of a comfort thing that he got into the habit of when he was younger.

pffft - i know big builders that wear tights in the winter.

I've done it in winter out of necessity in Scandinavia and Canada. As long as it isn't harming anyone else I don't really see an issue.

Lighten up on yourself. People get pleasure from all kinds of things, and the only thing 'wrong' with tights is that you see them as a female garment that you should not want to wear. But you do. So wear them, get whatever pleasure or kick you want from that. There are far, far stranger things than that out there.

Your only consideration is that you will need to be discreet. Because not everyone will understand, and some may jump to unwarranted conclusions about you based on your habit. Even though that says more about them than it does about you, its probably best not to bring that kind of attention upon yourself.

But you have nothing to feel guilty or weird about. Be glad you've found something you get a kick out of that harms no-one, is legal, and cheap. Enjoy!

Wtf?

Are you suggesting that the OP wearing tights would somehow matter to anyone if he had a serious accident??

Seany81

no of course not but would it worry him if his family found out could they deal with it?

NicoleL88

I'm sure his family would be more concerned for his well-being rather than what he was wearing on his legs.

Seany81

fair point but their are still people around that are old fashioned and could not deal with things like that whether their family or not

As long as the OP is happy and his wearing tights isn't affecting him negatively or stopping him from doing basic day-to-day activities I don't think it should matter what anyone else thinks. It's his life after all.

How would his family find out about it exactly? I doubt the hospital would say, "Oh, he was wearing tights"

OP- it really isn't an issue. I'm another of the- 'so what' brigade. If you are comfortable wearing them and it doesn't bother you- then I don't see what the issue is. I certainly wouldn't have any issue with a guy wearing them- thats entirely their business. The only thing that came to mind with your post was along the lines of- 'lucky bugger, bet you're a hell of a lot warmer than most of us in the winter'.

If anyone has an issue with what you wear- its their issue, not yours. If you have an issue with what you're wearing- then you need to assess what that issue is- and how to get past that issue.

On a scale of seriousness- I'd have far more concern for cyclists on the road without helmets on, than I would a guy wearing tights. It really isn't an issue with the vast majority of people.
