Now this is intended to be relatively lighthearted – nothing too deep or meaningful for a weekend, after all – but I was wondering (again… ), are there any real world, practical advantages to cross dressing?
Obviously, for us there are the emotional benefits, satisfying the inbuilt desire, making us whole, yada, yada… I’m accepting those as given. What I’m talking about are the real-life, day-to-day, simple, practical benefits of… wearing a bra, tights, a wig, carrying a handbag laden with… everything!, telepathically knowing where the nearest ladies or restroom is... whatever… but it must be of practical use in an everyday situation and not available when en drab.
So, a couple to start us off: the classic apocryphal (but once valid) practical benefit would be replacing a car’s broken fan or generator belt with a pair of knotted nylons or tights. A get-me-home repair, but the type of thing we folk of a certain generation, love..
From a personal perspective, I occasionally wear a pair of heeled sandals around the house when I get the chance (just for a bit of balance training and calf toning – and because I might like it…) and the 4.5” heels now elevate me to just over six foot… All of a sudden I can find things I’d lost in the top shelves of kitchen cupboards! I can change light bulbs without recourse to step ladders… So, high heels have actual, practical advantages.
Anything else… or is that it? Katey x
