Men must wear dresses. In fact, I would like to posit the theory that until all men are able to walk about in dresses without fear of mockery, losing their jobs or putting off potential mates, we will not have achieved freedom and equality in our societies. When it comes to clothing at least, women can do anything. But do men have the same equal rights as women do when it comes to clothing choice? Clearly not.

Pete Wentz loves dancing in High heels
Pete Wentz loves dancing in heels
Reuters
The Fall Out Boy rocker said: "I love Jessica Simpson's stuff, especially the shoes. I dance around my house in them all the time."
Pete, 28, also said he wishes men's fashion took more risks, and is envious of the clothing available to women.
He added to Fox News: "I don't know if I would really consider myself fashionable, but I think that fashion is kind of an awesome way to project who you are inside, and I really, really like going to fashion shows, and I really like women's fashion. I wish men's fashion had more risk-taking going on."
Pete has been dating 23-year-old Ashlee since late 2006, and recently gave the 'Autobiography' singer a promise ring.
Speaking about the diamond band, which she wears on her ring finger, Ashlee said: "This is a promise ring. It just means that he hasn't asked my dad if he can marry me yet!"
I don't understand why women are ok and even enthusiastic about other men being en femme.

The “Other” Man
Yesterday, I wrote about women who are comfortable (to one degree or another) with their men dressing like a woman.
Although it is rare to find a woman who is ok with a femulating partner, it is easy to find women who are ok with other men dressing like women (as long as the femulating men are not "their" men).
I run into this all the time. When I encounter a female stranger and she discovers that I am en femme, in the majority of cases, she is fine with it. Often, she is very interested and even enthusiastic about it. Seldom do I get a negative reaction.
Those who are positive about my femulation say something to the effect that what I am doing is "wonderful." Yes, I have actually heard the word "wonderful" more than once from such enthusiasts.
And I don't look a gift horse in the mouth and ask, "What do you mean by that?"
Instead, I just go with the flow.
I can understand why a woman would not want her man to femulate, but I don't understand why women are ok and even enthusiastic about other men being en femme. Not that there is anything wrong with it, but it's a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma!

Lorraine, also feels that gender should be removed from clothing and human beings being able to wear what they wish with out fear.

Couples Dressing Like Girls
This is old news from last August about a celebrity couple who dress like girls.
I was clueless about the "celebrity" of the couple and had to look them up and they still mean nothing to me, but that is not important.
What is important is that the story is an example of a woman who is ok with her man dressing like a woman.
Admittedly, he is not fully femulating and this might have been a one shot visit to the wild side because I cannot find any other photos of the guy in feminine attire. So, go figure.
Anyway, I don’t know many women who are ok with their men dressing like women.
The first time I encountered such a woman was at an IFGE convention I attended a few years ago in Philly. At the opening of the convention, I noticed a couple impeccably dressed in matching skirt suits. He was tall and she was petite and I wondered where they found matching outfits, but throughout the convention, they appeared in new matching outfits each day and each evening.
I was a little jealous. The wife was one in a million and I wish mine was a little bit like her. But I got over it.
Since then, I have encountered other similar couples, that is, women who are comfortable (to one degree or another) with their transwomen partner.
And it's getting better all the time.
In general, the younger generations are more accepting of transgender. It is not a big deal breaker as it is in older generations (like mine).
And so it goes.

Looks great, Equality in fashion with no gender based clothing, only human beings wearing what they wish just as a woman can wear what ever she wishes today. Nothing wrong with men wear pantyhose, skirts and high heels, I just hope they shave their legs to look their best when they do, this must be the norm in the future all around the world.

Many people reading this column may know little about Transgendered people’s lives
Transgender refers to a range of behaviors, identities and expressions which challenge the rigid bipolar gender system in our society. In our culture, people labeled “male” at birth are expected to conform to masculine stereotypes, identify as heterosexual and be content with the category “man.” People termed “female” are required to be “feminine” straight women by conventional society and are bound by a patriarchal system which systematically devalues and oppresses women. Anyone who strays from the strict categorizations of gender traditionalism and heterosexuality are often called “freaks,” “perverts,” and “deviants” and are considered outcasts by mainstream society.
Cross-dressersSince the 1990s, the Transgender Liberation Movement has been fighting back against gender ideology and is attempting to cast gender as a civil rights issue on both the national and international stage. Many people reading this column may know little about Transgendered people’s lives, and may wonder: what does transgender have to do with me? There are many reasons why Transgenderism matters to you. Here are some important ones to reflect upon and to begin the conversation:
YOU may be transgender. Approximately 5% of the population have gender identities or expressions which place them into the Transgender population. Transgender refers to people who do not fully identify with the gender assigned to them at birth. This includes folks who permanently cross the gender divide as well as people who “trans” it occasionally and who blur the categories altogether. Transgender is an umbrella term which includes cross-dressers, transsexuals, transgenderists, drag queens, drag kings, gender queers and a plethora of other gender-diverse constituencies. If you experience a frequent discomfort with your assigned sex or if you desire to dress in clothing associated with the “opposite” gender, you may be Transgender. While it is difficult to come out as Trans, there are many people out there to support you in your unique gender journey. Stand tall and be proud of who you are; revel in your chose gender expression and realize that you are not alone.
Transsexual
You probably know someone who is Transgender. “SOFFA” refers to Significant Others, Friends, Family and Allies of the Gender Community. Even if you yourself are not Trans, the chances are strong that you will discover that someone in your circle of friends and families identifies as gender-different. As more and more Trans people bust open the closet door, their friends and family members undergo a “coming out” of their own. As a persecuted minority, us Trannies need the support, loyalty, love and compassion of those close to us. If you are the Loved One of a Trans person, examine your own fears and biases and increase your cultural competency of gender issues. Reach out to your Trans friends and family members and offer them your unconditional love, even if you do not fully understand. Too many Trans people lose their family members or partners when they come out or are thrown our of the house; this needs to change and starts with each SOFFA taking a stand and deciding to stand by the Trans Loved One.
Discrimination against any human being is wrong.
Transgender people face employment discrimination, are denied housing, are the victims of hate crimes, and are laughed at, derided and degraded on the streets and in the community. Transgender people are viciously and brutally murdered every month in this country in horrific violent attacks.
Transphobia refers to the irrational fear and hatred of folks who cross, blur or transgress the traditional gender categorizations of male and female. Transphobic attitudes lead to institutional discrimination that oppresses Trans people and causes much undue physical, economic and emotional distress and suffering. The hopeful news is that it doesn’t have to be this way! Each and every one of us has the power to make a difference and to improve the world for all our fellow human beings. Take a stand against transphobia and work to challenge your own assumptions around gender.
The Transgender Liberation Movement is a fight for freedom and justice which intersects with other social justice struggles. Feminism, the anti-racism movement, the LesBiGay Movement, the movement for Economic Justice and the Disability Rights Movement (to name but a few) are all deeply intertwined with the movement for Gender Freedom. The powers-that-be succeed because they count on oppressed people fighting against each other, squabbling over a sliver of the pie while the ruling class enjoys the lion’s share of economic power and institutional resources. By pitting us against each other, they prevent us from organizing and winning real social change. In order to be victorious in our movement for Gender Liberation, we must unite and learn to link our diverse struggles for emancipation
The Transgender Movement is fundamentally about GENDER and thus it is an issue which affects ALL of us. Is anyone really 100% male or 100% female? Doesn’t everyone, in one way or another, differ from the socially-constructed notion of a “real man” or a “real woman?” Every person I know has felt limited, constrained or devalued for exhibiting “opposite” gender traits, behaviors or mannerisms at some point in their life, and what a shame that is! Each and every one of us are a complex mixture of male and female, masculine and feminine. No one should be made to feel shame or guilt for expressing the full range of human emotions and behaviors, for they are our unique and Goddess-given birthright. Gender is not a black-or-white proposition; rather, there exists an infinite rainbow of innovative options.
I urge you to bravely stretch and discard outdated gender roles, requirements and expectations and open yourself up to the full and vibrant spectrum of human freedom.
I hope that after reading this you look at “Transgender” in a slightly new way and that you challenge yourself and others to become a Trans Ally: a person who speaks out against gender-phobia and who celebrates the beauty of Gender Diversity. I for one think it's past the time to remove gender from clothing and allow human beings to be true to them self's and allow men to wear what they wish from just high heels to full feminine style of dress that is what we call the feminine gender system in our society today. So take the first step in stopping hate and transphobic attitudes.
