Looking at Other Women

[Want to be Lisa]

I don't know what's up with me lately. It was just recently that I have been having all of these old thoughts about how I missed dressing up. I searched and found this forum because of my thoughts and now.....

We had a company meeting this morning. In the past I would notice good looking women there and check them out. This morning though it was a little different. This morning I noticed more of what they were wearing and started thinking how I would look great in that and so on.

Is it because I have been practically living in this forum since I found it? Something definitely is different.

Does this happen to any of you?

Only all the time, Hun! :battingeyelashes:

IDK, I've been looking at woman and how their dressed my whole life, and have always wanted to be wearing what they had, but my problem goes way deeper than just wearing clothes.LOL

Yes. I think this is common among of here. I was just thinking about myself doing this very thing this morning. I'm seeing how lately a great outfit can make a plain woman very attractive to me.

[Joanne f]

This can be quite a bad habit as my wife often catches me look at women's cloths, the trouble is they are quite often on another woman , then it is "what are you looking at " accompanied by a smack a cross the head.
Things that we have to put up with in the name of research :D

[DawnRodgers]

Just about the only time I notice or look at other women is to check out what they are wearing - the style, the look. That includes everything - clothes, hair, shoes, jewelry. I feel that, if I want to look good, I should be aware of what is current and popular.

i think it's very common with all of us

We get this type of thread every few weeks. Stick around awhile and you will find that you can't ever kick the habit! You can go for years and try to suppress the feelings, but they always come back.

You already told us what is wrong. Your feeling an urge to dress again. So your now looking at how women dress and your hanging around here. "Looks like The Train is pulling out for Transgenderville, and you got yourself a ticket in 1st class!"

So, do you want our permission? Want us to tell you it's OK, but you won't go ahead and get gurly? Nope, can't really do it! Only you can give yourself permission to accept yourself! And, we can't tell you that you won't go ahead and dress; in fact it's most likely that you will.

It's not surprising, as we work our way through middle age, start to grope toward our 50's, we often begin to get "reacquainted" with our femme selves. Maybe it's an evaluation of our own mortality, maybe it's decreasing testosterone levels, maybe it's just an awareness of who we are, and a final acceptance of such things.

Whatever, your stuck with it! I'll just bet you buy something Gurly within a matter of days or weeks. Join The Sisterhood, and accept the enjoyment that it can bring.

Peace and Love, Joanie

You know your caught in a TG trap when you see a pretty girl and only think about the outfit.

[Sasha Anne Meadows]

Non tg men look at woman and think about sex. We look at them and think we want to wear what they have on.

[Lorileah]

A lot of times I look at them and think "don't you have a mirror in your house?"

[Malori Cross]

A lot of times I look at them and think "don't you have a mirror in your house?"

OMG--all the time! Ha!

But it's true--I come back & hang out here just a day or two and pow! I'm back in a Pink Fog dressed like a sissy!

I also find myself studying their makeup.
At work today in the canteen Bette Midlder on the TV and my female work colleagues commented that her eyes were more like slits since she had a face lift.
I replied that if they look closer her eyeliner beneath the eyes was too long and so contributing to the slitty look.
Now i am not out to anyone and the girls thought it amusing that I had picked up on this little detail.

[xAnne_Mariex]

I notice myself doing this a LOT, there are some beautiful girls in my office and more often than not I admire them just as much for their outfit as their looks lol

[westt]

haha i think we sometimes tend to check women out more than other guys. i remember at times trying to catch all of the details of an attractive woman (makeup, shoes, outfit, etc), and then realizing my eyes probably looked like i was undressing her in my mind

[Rebecca Sue]

When I look at women I look at the clothes they are wearing, their mannerisms, they way they move, their jewelry, everything that makes a woman feminine, I'm checking it out. Yeah I'm sure at times it looks like I'm undressing them in my mind but more often than not it'd be more accurate to say that I'm dressing them in my mind.

[TGMarla]

Does it "happen" to me? Hmmm.....only ever since I can remember. I don't recall ever not feeling that way.

Hello Lisa!
Welcome to the forum. I have gone for periods of 6 months to 12 years without dressing. Then like a lightening bolt I get hit with the pink fog and I buy 5-8 wonderful dresses that I could not do without! I check out all the ladies and see how they do their hair, how they walk and especially their shoes. This is a bad disease that we have! I now dress about 4-5 days per month on business trips away from home. However, I think about being Charlie and dressed all the time!

[suzanne]

More often than not, I see a beautiful, or well-dressed woman (or both) and find myself wishing I could look like her, or have hair like hers, or legs, or what have you. Regular guys imagine what they'd do to her if they could get her in the sack. I love that I'm not like that.

[PatyR]

Precisely today I was talking to my other half about that. I've caught myself looking at a lady, then I realize that my thoughts are how much I would love to look like her.:battingeyelashes:

[sharynPA]

I remember watching a movie with Bruce Willis and Sarah Jessica Parker, they were cops in Pittsburgh, anyway the only thing I remember about it was the final scene in which Sarah had on a white dress with white stockings and I thought "O how cute, that would look great on me". Another was Karate Kid Three, where Hilary Swank was going to the dance....I love the dress, she wore. Sigh

[Deanna2]

In the past I would notice good looking women and check them out. This morning I noticed more of what they were wearing and started thinking how I would look great in that and so on.

Does this happen to any of you?

Sure does and I couldn't be happier - enjoying the women, what they are wearing and how they present themselves.

[Alice B]

I look at woman all the time. First because I really like woman and always have. I appreciate woman that dress with style and do a good job with make up. They show confidence in how they appear. I also pay attention to what they are wearing and wonder how it would look on me. I am not afraid to compliment a good looking woman when I see one and try to do so with taste. I find that they appreciate the compliment and hope that if it were me they would do the same. Observing is a good way to learn.

[suchacutie]

I think it's essential to pay attention to the ones who know best how to be women! They are constantly showing us new ways to be what we want to be, or what we don't want to be!!! I recently discovered leggings and I have a great top that is the length of a very short minidress (all black) that matches so well with the leggings. I've been noticing what gg's are wearing with leggings and have some great ideas of what to do and what not to do.

It's the only way :).

Everytime the guys tell me to come and check this girl or that girl out they are looking at their rears or boobs. While I am checking out their clothes from top to bottom. Then their makeup and hair. :battingeyelashes:

[docrobbysherry]

FIRST, I notice the attractive woman.:eek:

SECOND, I notice what she's wearing.:D

THIRD, I decide if her outfit/style, would look good on me!:heehee:

[Lanore]

How long have I been looking at women I ask? I believe since my eyes opened. I've learned so much through my life by watching what women wear, how they do their make-up and the way they carry themselves. I believe the lessons have paid off through my journy.

[il.dso]

Yes, this is definitely a big issue for me, too.
I look at woman and always have lots of questions:
Are they wearing nylon or cotton panties? I only wear nylon panties.
If they're wearing pantyhose, what brand and are they control top?
Are they wearing a slip? If not why, why not!
So many questions, indeed...

[Jeanne Hamilton]

I always admire women; how would I look with that hair style, that hair color. I admire" their legs and stockings, and of course, cleavage. And I say to myself, "I wish I could look like that."

[Angel.Marie76]

I just had to try and explain to my SO the other day, when she asked if I still found women attractive.. My response was, of course, YES, but in different ways that I've realized before. She was more looking at it from the perspective of her own self-consciousness, but it just seems lately when I make comments about a woman's presentation, she just looks at me funny. Hell yes, I've lusted for a girl's outfits or expertly applied makeup (Or BOOTS! ohhh..) ;) and when I find myself visually scanning around it's not to see the next hottest thing walking by - unless it's their accessories!

[Cary]

In the past 2 months a new girl started working at the office. She is very cute and has good taste in clothes. I can tell she takes great care in putting together her outfits. Everyday I make sure some kind of way I get to see her. She dresses just like I would if I were out. The weird thing is over the past week she has shownup in different pieces of clothing that I own(same color, etc). I bought them first though. It makes me feel like I'm getting my look right.

[2b.Lauren]

I can chime in on this one too. As a human facinated by the mannerisms, style, dress, and interaction of other humans for my entire life I always find myself looking at or watching people. I find myself doing it more so with women than men and it is particularly because of the same reasons others have discussed. When I see a lady, I am first looking at shoes. I love them and always want to see what she may have on, what it looks like and so on. Then if I have the time it is hair or makeup, and certainly mannerisms. I have probably picked up the best tips I can think of by just watching other women do certain things. I also have those moments of wondering what I would look like or I like that style. I just try not to make it so that she would be scared or worried for any reason. I have commented on hair and other things often, and have had male friends that were oogleing for all the other reasons say that is a good way to get her to talk to you. All the while I was really commenting on how her hair looked, not to use it as a line or a conversation breaker. :)

[Marlena_Sparkles]

I look all the time too. I am not checking them out though. Like others,I am looking at what they are wearing and how they are acting. At times I look too long though!:sigh:

[rachellegsep]

I often find myself looking at their shoes and thinking I could kill for those, I wonder where she bought them :daydreaming:

[Lilly 40C]

It happens to me all the time. Especially if their wearing tights or black hose.
