One of my doctors suggested that I start to wear compression socks. For those who don't know they go to about the knee, and are tight fitting.
I was putting one on the other morning while discussing something with my wife. I was balling the sock up as if one were putting on a stocking or pantyhose and pulling it slowly up my leg. The following ensued:
Wife: now you know what it feels like for women to put on pantyhose, oh, wait a minute, you already do.
Me: Yes, but they are not quite the same.
Wife: pantyhose are looser and more likely to have a fingernail poking through them
Me: Been there, done that.
Aftr a week of wearing the socks, I'd rather wear pantyhose.
