Looking at women

[Samantha Sometimes]

Do any of you ever (as I often do). Get caught staring at a woman cause you love her outfit or make up? I can't help it!

[gerri ray]

Yes! Today I complimented the receptionist at my local community center on her unique manicure. I think I made her day 😊

[prene]

Always,
Not just their outfit and makeup, their figure also.
I get envious and would give up the outfit and makeup for the figure.

Prene

[IleneD]

Absolutely, yes. Used to get me in "trouble" all the time. Can't count the times the S.O. elbowed me back to eyes-front, or I got caught gawking at a female co-worker. Little did they know.

If I was in a pack of 5 men, 4 of them would make lustful comments of a beautiful woman who passes by. I would be thinking "Lord, I'd look great in that." The Wife was totally stunned when I dropped that fact on her. It was one of the items in "The Talk" that resonated with her; like an epiphany. She understood.

I am by nature and education a student of the human animal; a biologist, anthropologist; a dedicated people watcher. Amazing what you learn if you keep your mouth shut and observe. LOVE watching the most beautiful, graceful and elegant beings of our species in full cultural glory. So much so that I wanted to join the sorority.

[franlee]

It is the ultimate turn-on. For a while I thought it was lust, but no it's envy and a big dose of admiration. And sometimes it makes the outfit or the wearer attractive when in another outfit either may have been so-so or even blah.

[Maria 60]

Sure do! I hate when I see something and get the craving to feel there sensation. I was in the mall last week and seen a women wearing over the knee boots with a skirt just alittle higher, showing only a few inches of pantyhose. It looked great and as soon as my wife seen the glow in the eyes she knew what I was going to ask her next. Well let's say we are looking.Lol

[Lilly 40C]

Yes, I have. I often wounder how I would look in what they are wearing.

[Stephanie Julianna]

Been doing it for 65 years. When I was first married it drove my wife crazy but she started to believe me as I became more vocal about what the woman was wearing.

[DIANEF]

All the time, bit more difficult when the wife is with me and (understandably) gets the wrong idea of why I'm glancing at a woman's shoes or outfit.

[sara66]

My favorite pastime! If I hear the clack of heels my head swivels. I start at the shoes and work my way up. I notice the outfit, then the face & body. I love almost everything about women.
Sara :)

[Lana Mae]

I also become jealous/envious of how good they make it look! Then you have to find that item of clothing and in your size and get frustrated when you can't!! LOL Hugs Lana Mae

[Jane G]

Lol why else would you look at a beautiful woman.:daydreaming:

[Karen RHT]

Amazing what you learn if you keep your mouth shut and observe. LOVE watching the most beautiful, graceful and elegant beings of our species in full cultural glory. So much so that I wanted to join the sorority.

I've observed women since I was a kid. As time went on my fascination with their clothes, accessories, makeup, etc., grew. Something "clicked" internally while I was fully dressed at Halloween, and that's when "I wanted to join the sorority."

My wife now understands why I've always been able to pick out so many nice things for her, and continues to seek my thoughts and opinion when she shops for herself.

[jennigrace]

Many times! I love looking at beautiful women but I also love looking at their clothes. I just wish I could have many of the outfits I've seen. I have one girl at church who drives me crazy with the beautiful clothes she wears every week. I'm jealous!

[Abbey11]

Yep, I enjoy seeing nice female presentation and mentally noting what they are wearing, especially so that I better understand what makes good daytime wear and makeup versus nighttime party attire and makeup, I do try and blend, not standout....to much :D

[Ressie]

I don't stare. But I get caught glancing for an over extended time. ;) I get ideas from what women are wearing; a scarf, shoes, accesories etc. And they might get a look on their face, like they're trying to figure out what I'm looking at.

[Jenniferathome]

It's a fine line between a "look" and "leer"

[DIANEF]

It's a fine line between a "look" and "leer"

And I think the majority of us know the difference.

[Dana44]

Yep pretty women and the clothes they wear. Make one turn their head. LOL Yep my SO tells me about it. But I tell her I like the way she is dressed. uh huh, yes many women have a grace that we try to emulate.

[Micki_Finn]

I've caught myself but never been caught.

[Hell on Heels]

Hell-o Samantha,
Yes! I find that it's a great way to get some ideas for
new outfits, but I do feel a bit awkward when a woman
"catches" me looking her way.

Just the other day at the big orange home store.
An attractive young woman was in there wearing a bright
purple sweater, skinny jeans, and ankle boots with 5" heels.
Not your typical home store shopping outfit, but
eye catching for sure. Then I noticed the baby she was holding.
All I could do was smile and move along.
Much Love,
Kristyn

[RaquelAtwell]

I don't really think I get caught, I usually make a lot of quick glances. Always taking note on the details of the outfits that women wear. A well dress lady will always catch my eye.

Hopefully i don't get caught and get a mean glare. I don't want go under her skirt, I want to be in it.

[kymmieLorain]

Caught not really, my SO lets me look. I look at body/ cloths first. Then want to get her outfit.

Kymmie

[Alisonforme]

I can't help but look and enjoy all wonderful outfits that women get to put together. Man-fashion is such a drag (or maybe it's a drab). I'm sure my SO catches me, but she's never been jealous and doesn't say anything. I don't know if she thinks I'm looking at the woman or the clothes, but most often I either admire the outfit or they way someone has chosen an outfit that flatters and compliments them.
And then I dream and wish that I could look so lovely.

[StephanieM]

I don't get caught but I do look and wonder what it feels like to be able to wear what that particular woman is wearing, and wishing I could dress like that too. What's funny is the woman doesn't think anything of what she's wearing other than being in clothes that she thinks she looks good in, meanwhile I'm wishing like hell I could be wearing that.

[Stephanie47]

This "old guy" is not dead. I totally enjoy looking at a fine female form. I really do love seeing women wearing dress or skirts/tops with high heels. One of the best places for "women watching" is Costco on Sunday right after church lets out. Lots of attractive women wearing dresses shopping. The downside....too many kids running around without supervision.

[Christina D]

While sometimes I can't help but look, I try to keep my glances very brief. Even if my girlfriend isn't around, I would hate any woman to think I was objectifying her or being a creep, especially if I'm out in drab.

I do most of my looking on the Internet, usually via Pintrest. I just tyoe in something sort of vague like "red tights outfit" or "floral romper" and plenty of results come up. Plus, if I really like the outfit, many of the images show exactly how to put it together!

[Billy]

I have especially been looking at women lately. I am trying to figure out what they wear that looks good. It is probably not a bad idea to look at men also. Yesterday I was playing poker at a casino. I could not help but notice a guy sitting across the table. He looked kind of feminine. I looked at him several times. His eyebrows and hands looked manicured and he could easily pass for a woman if he was dolled up.

[WandaRae2009]

I think I do more checking out of what woman are wearing. Checking out the woman underneath seems to come second anymore.

[mona lisa]

Do any of you ever (as I often do). Get caught staring at a woman cause you love her outfit or make up? I can't help it!

Yep, it happened earlier tonight...saw a woman in a red coat, a dress/skirt, and black heels walking up the sidewalk and fixated on her footwear.

[hunnybun]

I'm with you Mona Lisa, I tend to notice pretty shoes but they are an addiction for me anyway. I love to see a good make-up job too.
We live in a world of envy, that's a crossdressers lot I'm afraid.

Hunnybun.

[Lori_Lyn]

Yes I check out women to see what they are wearing, first their shoes, especially if there is the clip clop of a heel.
Then if she is in a skirt or dress that captures my attention that much more which you don't see much around here.
A women dressed classy that is. Then her hair and makeup.

Aah the clip clop of heels! :daydreaming:

[Becky Blue]

All the time often with envy occasionally with mirth and sometimes with frustration.
On rare occasion I have said to a woman this is not a pick up line but you look amazing in that dress .. left a few women beaming

[Eva Bella]

All of the time, and I notice and appreciate so much more about women now. I'll take note of shoes, nails, hair, skin.. things that never caught my eye when I was ogling women as a younger guy.

Although I've learned to keep my mouth shut a bit. Here in LA you see AMAZING eye makeup on girls - even girls just working at Starbucks or whatever. They're really good at it, and they do these metallic shadow and winged liner jobs that blow my mind. I've complimented a few girls on their makeup, and they think it is insanely weird. It definitely makes them uncomfortable, even though it's just an honest, non-loaded compliment. I guess its something that they'd never hear from a man. So I just shut up and appreciate it.

[NewBrendaLee]

I know that I do. I love watching day time dramas to see what the ladies are wearing. Many times I wish that I could look that great.

[krissy]

I love to look at all women . I get envious of them .I ck. out their clothes then i try to see what style of panty or bra they have on.thats when my wife says im staring:c9:

[Sandy silk]

I look at women constantly evaluating their walk, style, dress....and envy how they do it. I watch my wife and envy her ease of style. I am so fortunate that she accepts my dressing...not for a moment do I take it or her for granted.

[Mickitv]

I compliment women all the time. I am also not afraid to use some their sayings like - That's cute or its beautiful and some others

[Janine cd]

I see myself staring at beautifully dressed woman all the time and wondering what I would look like in their clothes. I had an experience recently while in church. A woman in the pew ahead was wearing the most beautiful pair of black leather pumps I had ever seen. It was all I could do to focus on the service.

[Vintage4sarah]

There is so much we can learn from observing women to we deem to be attractive. Certain styles of how they present themselves, the accessaries such as jewelry and scarves and how they blend their clothing and shoes are a valuable asset for many of us. The difficult part is not staring or dwelling too long with our observations so that we cross the line of leering or harassment.

I have gathered a lot of good hints from other women especially my stylish wife and adult daughter as well as at church and other public gatherings !

[BLACK STOCKINGS]

I always look at women that are dressed well. If i see one dress realy nice I will always complement them. If they are wearing something that I like I have no problem asking them where did they buy it. But I am always watching so that I can learn the females mannerisms.

[wendy]

Yes ! I do look (not leering or in lust), but how they are dressed, how they match clothing colours, how they do their hair, and especially make up (as that is one part I am still learning on how to apply and match).

[Krisi]

And I think the majority of us know the difference.

But do the women know the difference?

This is a situation where you have to be pretty careful. Stare too long at a woman and she or her husband/boyfriend are likely to make an issue of it. If you want to look at women (and who doesn't), you have to keep it subtle and below the "creepy" level.

So yes, I look but I don't get caught. My wife looks as well and points out unique outfits and/or shoes to me. Mostly though, she points out "fashion mistakes". Bad or inappropriate outfits.

[Gabby6790]

I try to not stare but it is sometimes hard. I think it was easier before i became self aware. I always noticed a well dressed fit lady.

Now, I notice them study them especially the outfit, accessories, and mannerisms.

The other day I was at the grocery store and an attractive woman was wearing a tight black skirt, top, and hose, with 5" pumps and the cutest foot tattoo. I was mesmerized. I kept thinking about all the times we say to dress to blend. I was like "well if she can wear that to the grocery store so can I". Not really of course.

[Alice B]

Not only do I do it all the time, but I often compliment women on their looks or outfits. Always geet a great response.

[biannne]

I also observe women, especially when I see a well dressed woman. I do that to get an idea of the dress they wear so that I can buy one juts like that.

[pantyhoselvr kendra]

I love women, the way they walk in heels is amazing

[Annah]

I do all the time. i think some probably think I am checking them out if I am caught looking, if only they knew I was checking out their outfits, often wondering how I would look!

[MissVirginia-Mae]

I look at the different outfits they are wearing.....Im not interested in the physical aspect of the woman

[immike]

Definitely!

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Samantha:hugs:, Many more times than I can remember...:daydreaming:...

[Helen_Highwater]

Now, I notice them study them especially the outfit, accessories, and mannerisms.

I'm with Gabby, I'm always looking at the entire package. You can put identical twin sisters in the same dress and heels but one will stand out due to how she's accessorised, carries herself, even small details such as lippy colour. It's also knowing what will translate on to you. What you can carry off and what will make you look like "Mutton dressed as lamb".

So yes I observe rather than watch and as we all know, Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

[Scarlett398]

You look really sharp and sexy, Eva...And when I see a lady who is well put together from top to bottom, I'm not afraid to tell them while waiting in line at a grocery store or a clothing store that they look really sharp today...I never have gotten a creep stare or statement from the complimented lady. They usually say something like "Well thank you very much, I appreciate you saying that." I do notice when some lady has it all going on which actually is kind of rare where I live. I see much more fashion disasters than I do fashions really well done! I'm sure most folks on this site, regardless of where they live see the same sort of results on a daily basis!.....Scarlett

[Lacey New]

Of course I look at women. Even though I am a crossdresser, for me anyway, there is the natural physical attraction. In addition, nicely dressed women often form the fantasy of how I would like to dress and look

[Ozark]

"..And when I see a lady who is well put together from top to bottom, I'm not afraid to tell them while waiting in line at a grocery store or a clothing store that they look really sharp today..

That's also called sexual harassment. And the entire statement is so blatantly sexist "a lady who is well put together from top to bottom" WTF?

[Aunt Kelly]

That's also called sexual harassment. And the entire statement is so blatantly sexist "a lady who is well put together from top to bottom" WTF?

Maybe, maybe not. If I, in boy mode and unprompted, make a comment like that to a complete stranger, I am being a boor, at least, but a compliment is not necessarily de facto harassment. There is a difference. If Kelly makes that compliment, much less boorish and calling it harassment is almost ludicrous. As for the well put together terminology, again not necessarily sexist. The term might be a positive review of fashion sense, color coordination, accessorization, and general style. Then again, it might mean something more like, "Wow! Nice rack." Context does matter. So do class and geography, for that matter. I've lived in enough parts of the country and crossed enough social strata to know that what is acceptable in one region or social context is often not in another. I appreciate your sentiment, but the world just isn't that black and white.
