    Male Style Vs. Female Style

    Just wondering if your male style is similar to your female style. Basically I'm gothic in both modes but I dig some girlie fashions that step out of the goth world.

    For some reason I relate to singers and musicians than anybody else. In male mode I'd say that would have to be Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails I wear tons of black I also dig Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver Scott just has that rocker look down.

    As for the female look I love Rihanna aside from being a sheer beauty I love the way she dresses she has a somewhat goth look at times but not always. Gwen Stefani isn't goth at all but she looks amazing absolute beauty and I love her style.

    So tell us yours it doesn't have to be singers and musicians.

    My male style is pretty conservative and/or boring. I'm really just a jeans and tshirt kind of guy most of the time. Thats part of the fun of crossdressing. I like to dress a little on the provacotive side now and then if not darn right trashy. I think alot of crossdressers like to over compensate sometimes with thier styles just because we can!

    If you've got it, flaunt it! In male mode, I've got nothin' to flaunt!
    U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.

    Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!

    I try to dress as attractively as possible when I'm a woman and I take a great deal of care about it. When I have to dress as a guy I'd describe myself as an expensively dressed slob!

    My two styles couldn't be more different. Because of my work, I dress ultra-casual: jeans, turtlenecks, sweatshirts and sweaters. Except for my shoes, it is a mostly gender neutral look.

    I would never dress like that when I crossdress.

    My style is developing all the time. I mostly like clean, classic lines with a few well-placed accessories. Casual stuff is usually co-ordinated but always comfy and easy to wear.

    I have difficulty creating a style from men's clothes as they all seem so shapeless and just sort of hang off me. If I spend a lot of money I don't have I can get men's clothes that I would be happy enough to wear and that would flatter my shape. It seems to cheaper and easier to get women's clothes that are tailored to fit right off the rail.

    I prefer skirts and dresses so creating a style I'm happy with in man's clothes is, in this respect, a bit of a challenge.

    My closet couldn't be more bipolar.

    Boy clothes are often tatty, with holes in jeans from battery acid, chainsaw, crusty areas from wiping epoxy, blood stains from scraping my knuckles, etc. Feet shod in boots, shirts normally of the pullover kind. Way too boring, but it suits my work.

    Girl clothes tend toward the classic 50's look, but are next to impossible to buy new off the racks. Always skirts or dresses, never pants (why wear what I can wear in boy mode?), and with heels.

    Jeans, tennies, t-shirts almost every day in drab. Dressed to the nines when I can in drag. Fine male apparel bores me. But, there is one item I really want, one of those sport coats with the elbow patches, to wear with jeans of course!

    I usually try to dress age-appropriately (especially if I'm going out) but I'd love to try stuff from the juniors' section (I doubt any of it would fit me though . Also I'd love to dress up as a little girl sometime, as well as a ballerina and a bride.
    I'd love to try the gothic thing as well...I guess I'm open to a lot of different ways of dressing.

    As a guy I'm usually t-shirt and jeans although sometimes I do clean up a bit and wear button down shirts and maybe khakis. I wouldn't say I have any certain style, I just wear whatever is appealing to me. Back in the 90's someone said I looked 'alternative' (as a guy) and I didn't think I did, but that was their opinion.

    I try to present myself respectfully in both modes. I do not ever look like a slob as a guy and as a woman I tend to go with the slightly provocatve look but not over done. I think being out in public looking like a slob shows a lack of class.

    I agree! I love tailored clothes as a woman and I'm pretty casual as a man.

    Male Style is an oxymoron! There is no such thing and there is no such thing as "male fashion". Males all look like clones of each other or waddling Penguins at formal events with no color or individuality; just black and white.

    My male mode is very casual, jeans/t-shirts/flannel shirts etc. My female mode tends to be much more dressed. Not really fancy, but most definitely more dressed up. I love it! I really do not find many "fancy" male clothes interesting, never have.

    I must say I am very casual in guy mode, Jeans and t-shirt. Sneakers. And sweaters that is comfortable wearing. But in woman mode I am only wearing clothes that is stylish, Gowns, dresses, high heels and silk and satin. I have two pair of pences both are satin, one tigth and one wide. I have ever looked at a man and noticed his clothes (unless they are dirty) but womens clothes I notice easily. I think "nice outfit" before I notice the face of a woman. I even think: "those shoes to that dress.?!..she`s crazy!" I once spent a hole day with a friend, at the end of the day his wife said to me: "So what do you thing of his outfit? Sneakers and a suit? His a wierd man, ha?" I never noticed....

    Seeing as I almost invariably present as a (very pretty) man when wearing women's clothing, I don't really have distinct "male" and "female" styles - the two kind of merge for me. If I did, though, I think I'd take equal care with each. I like the male side of me too much to dress him like a slob (or every other guy out there).

    In guy mode I dress very casual, jeans or cargo pants, t-shirt, hoodie. I think if I had a full female wardrobe I would probably wear the female version of my guy clothes if dressed for any extended period of time. For now though since I only dress for short time periods and I don't have an extensive wardrobe, I do like the nicer more feminine clothing.

    Well I started buying girls' clothes when I was in high school, so that's reflected in the style I chose. As a guy I'm pretty laid back, jeans and tees, I only have a couple pairs of shoes, etc. However on the other hand, I have as many high heels as I do sneakers and my feminine wardrobe is on the trendy side; mid-thigh length skirts, cute colorful tops, I have a pair of denim capris with rhinestones on the back pocket, y'know, that kind of stuff

    I dress pretty much the same both male and female, both very laid back and casual. With my real hair long enough now, to not have to use a wig, the only major difference is to change my pants for a jumper dress and put on some makeup.

    In male mode, I dress casually. I find myself sticking with mostly skater/surfer wear such as Quiksilver or Billabong. I just bought female clothes for the first time (two mini skirts, a pair of capris and a halter that can double as a dress) and my God, I love them so much more than my male clothes. I look at my male clothes and sometimes feel that I'm just another "cog in the wheel" but my female clothes really make me appreciate women all that much more.
