ORIGINAL: OttersSwim Hello GoddessB and welcome to the forums! You know, I suspect that you were not equating being girly to being weak in your post above, but I just wanted to make sure that peeps reading understood that a guy having a female side does not (and should not, IMO) equate in any way to being "weak"- of mind, of body, nor of spirit. Certainly in the expression of a gender-based kink - the sissy sort of play, there can be expressed flouncing or mincing. All fine and good if that is what a person or their partners are into. For me, I don't mince. I never have, and I probably never will. Having a girly side for me is nothing short of the greatest strength in my life. I buck society, I challenge myself and others, I "see" outside myself, and I embrace differences that I might not if I did not have this part of me, in me so intimately. There is no weakness in being authentic. I absolutely loved this post. Thank you for explaining things how I've wanted to since this thread was posted. I tried to think of a way to say that when my manly man is dressed in stockings and heels for me, he is nowhere near 'girly' in the way that some people might think. I think people can be a bit quick to think that 'girly' can equal the whole mincing, camp thing, when in fact it doesn't. Just because a manly man might be comfortable enough in his own body to not protest about wearing said clothes, I don't feel it takes anything away from his masculinity. If anything, in my eyes, it makes him even more attractive and manly to me. I fully understand that a lot of the ladies on here prefer their men to look like men, which is fair enough. I know there are also a lot of ladies who prefer the full TVs, which is also fair enough. Each to their own, as I like to say. Thank you OttersSwim for making some things clearer.
