So wife and I are shopping for pantyhose for both of us. She had picked out a pair for me that was the wrong size. I told her in a normal voice that they weren't my size, and then pointed to a pair that would fit me. I could tell she was a little uncomfortable at that moment. We found our correct sizes , purchased them and went on our way. Afterwards we talked about the awkward moment. I told her I'm not shy at all when buying my own pantyhose. Being that we were shopping close to home, she didn't want someone that knew us to see, and didn't want me to be "outed". I'm also in a job that's pretty much male dominated, and she is concerned about how this would affect me (maybe not after I retire). We travel frequently, and she said she wouldn't care at all if we were shopping somewhere out of town. I do see her point now. FWIW, she is totally accepting of my other side, and I'm the luckiest guy in the world to have her (for many more reasons than accepting my CD side).
