RANDOM THOUGHT TIME
I've been spending quite a bit of time in the mall, recently. This means that I am slowly turning into a consumer whore. My standards have been sufficiently lowered that I suddenly find various purses and suitcases to be much more appealing than they used to be, and haha, don't even get me started on what spending all my time in the food court has done to me.
But! The point is. I walk by a lot of stores, most of them clothing stores, and yes, I tend to look in the windows as I go. And I have noticed something. I really, really wish I could wear men's clothing. I don't -- I don't have gender dysphoria, as far as I can tell, but oh man, oh woman, do I wish I could slip into a nice suit and have it fall right on my hips. How much would love to pull on a button up shirt and have it fit across my chest without any problems? I want to wear plaid, I want to wear vests and ties and all sorts of jackets.
Don't get me wrong, I love my curves. Most of the time. But damn, I wish someone out there made men's clothing for women. (I also wish someone out there would make women's clothing for women, seriously.)
RELATED THOUGHT TIME
Something that makes me feel kind of like an awful person: I keep seeing these people in the mall and having a gut reaction of, Oh, hey, that person is hot.* And then I, I realize they are a dude? And I suddenly find them 10 times less attractive. There's a, a look? That I think is super attractive on ladies, but that I'm just not interested in when fellas are sporting it.
I was talking to Baco about this, and she pointed out that a lot of it has to do with rebelling against society. And, uh, also with being badass and confident, which are two qualities that I have to say I find pretty appealing.
RELATED POST FOR THE FUTURE?
So, I like to think of myself as gay, although I'm pretty sure I'm technically bisexual. My hesitance over bisexuality is mainly due to my reaction at penises (haha, sorry dudes who are reading this, but they kind of gross me out). But! I gotta say, I do enjoy looking at a lot of masculine things. And I'm just now wondering if any of my attraction can be attributed to wanting to be be more masculine (see: muscles, RANDOM THOUGHT TIME). Things to ponder.
Okay, and, uh, now I have a question for everybody. Does anyone know much about chest binding, especially if you have bigger breasts? Like, good places to buy binders, how well they work for bigger chests, recommendations, etc. Bolded for, you know, boldness, in case you skipped over everything else in this post.
* As always, I want to include the disclaimer that when I say "hot" or "attractive" or "appealing" or hell, even "sexy," which is Sir Not Appearing In This Film, I don't mean that I find it sexually, ah, stimulating. I just mean I really enjoy looking at them. I don't know why I always want to include this disclaimer, except that I think my definition of these words is not the usual definition and I'm hoping to avoid misunderstanding.
