have you worn a man's bra?

[jacques]

hello,
there are a small number of companies which sell lingerie for men, including bras, lace panties and bodysuits.
have you ever been tempted to wear or buy them?
luv J

[Tracii G]

No because its made for a man and I don't wear mens clothes.

[DIANEF]

Nope, why would I want to?

[Beverley Sims]

No, like a lot of others here, if it is designed for men, let the men wear it.

I go for ladies clothing and that designed for women all the time.

Some of the gloss is taken off the garment when it is designed for men.

[Rhonda Jean]

Set two identical bras on the counter and tell me one is for women and one is for men, I'll pick the women's every time. I'll even pay more. Remember, they're identical.

These companies obviously market to those that will pick up the men's. I find it amusing that there are, bras, stockings, heels, baby doll nighties, lingerie of every imaginable kind, nail polish, makeup, earrings... there is probably nothing once reserved for women that is not now available in a men's version. I can only assume that there are men that wouldn't touch women's things that for some reason find it acceptable to wear bras and panties made for men.

Another thing, if you put "man" in the name, it magically changes gender appropriateness! Manscara, manbag or murse, manties, and let's not forget the "bro"!

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Jacques :hugs:,, Would that possibly be CrissXCrossDressing ???

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Orchid ..o:daydreaming:o..

[Robertacd]

No because all of the lingerie for men I have seen is hideous looking fetish wear like "Manties", or its just large sized women's lingerie marked up to a premium price because now it's for a man.


It would be nice for someone to actually make a bra cut to better fit a genetic male body that looked like something the average GG wears everyday.

[Piora]

If it isn't made for a woman......I'm NOT interested in the slightest.

[Crissy 107]

I have never been interested in panties made for men. Mine have to be made for women.

[Sami Brown]

I am sure the male version takes all the fun out of it.

Some of the gloss is taken off the garment when it is designed for men....unless it’s a suit of armor.

I imagine men’s bras would be more expensive than women’s, as they are catering to a much smaller client base.

[Bobbi46]

Tempted no never it has to be 100% female otherwise where is the alure, the total feeling of femininity, to wear something which in a way is a half way solution for me destroys whole ethos of the feminine look and feel.

[beckypanties]

A while back my wife sent me a link on Facebook to some hideous "panties for men" site. Nope, not happening honey. I'll continue to buy the undergarments generally marketed to women.

[Kathy Smith]

Absolutely no point to 'em!
OK, so I don't have boobs and any bra is a waste off time because there's nothing for it to do. However, Kathy would never wear a bra intended for a bloke. :)

[Jenny22]

Aaaaaaaaaarg... gasp....gulp .... ugh! Nuff said.

[valerie anne]

I need to wear a bra for support and nipple modesty, but it's always a proper ladies one, with underwires and some supportive padding.

I love proper feminine lace & bows, with sexy colours and straps. I only feel properly supported in a bra with a firm wide band and a 3 hook deep clasp. Only ladies bras support and lift me as I need!

[RainbowDash]

Never figured bras were really for men actually. U think bra, u think woman. I am aware there are a few men who have to wear bras because their breasts are big.

But for me it has to be made for women, not men. I know they got panties for men.... No thank you, I'm only interested if its made for women.

[Teri Ray]

Nope...........Final answer.

[HollyGreene]

No. They look terrible, and are very expensive.
I do have a pair of men's briefs that are made of a mesh/lace type material.
I bought them when my wife said it was strange for a man to wear lace women's underwear. So I just had to show her that you could get lace men's underwear, and prove there wasn't much difference, so did it really matter which ones I wore.

[sometimes_miss]

I can fit into a woman's bra with no problem. Why would I shop for one that isn't going to fit, and is probably lower quality for more money anyway?

[Jen60]

On Seinfeld, Kramer invented a bra for men, which George Costanza wore. They called it a “ Bro!” 😜

[CynthiaD]

EEK! I hate male clothing! No, I don't wear anything unless it's absolutely necessary.

[Beverley Sims]

...unless it’s a suit of armor.

Suits of armour for women are difficult to find in the right size as they do not stretch to fit. :-)

[Kathy Smith]

I understand that rubber armour was considered to be rather ineffective. :)

[Crissy 107]

Sitting here this morning with a cup of coffee reading this thread thinking of some poor guy who spent maybe 5X the money buying panties, bras, or whatever trying to convince his wife, Oh don’t worry, these were made for men. I wish you luck. Crissy

[wearingtanpantyhose]

Maybe I would. I do love wearing a bra with forms, but I often just don't bother for comfort reasons if I'm simply relaxing at home and not dressing completely and wearing a wig and makeup. I've wondered about trying a "flat chested bra" just to have that bra "hug" without the discomfort of my usual sturdy bras needed to support realistic forms. Does that make sense? Other than that, the draw of wearing women's clothes is wearing women's clothes. You won't catch me in "men's" panties or pantyhose with a sheath. And, I don't like fetish wear at all... I want to wear clothes a normal woman wears, not strip-club attire.

[Jaylyn]

Interesting but that's not what I want. I want my bras to be from the women's department. Same thing as I'm seeing the advertisements on the television that are saying have you wore the so lite under wear for men that you won't know that you are wearing them. I have a drawer full of panties and I know I'm wearing them. That feeling is what I seek. Same thing with my bras.

[ronni white]

My mans bras are the ones I bought for my self.

[kinky_caitlin]

Nope, It has to be made for a woman

[chelyann]

never !!
we would not be here if we wanted to wear men's clothes :)

My first crossdressing purchase was exactly that, a 32AA bra from Target. Went to the nearest store, picked out a bra I liked, and paid cash via the self check out kiosk.

[Joannie]

I don't like these items, they make me feel like I am going to be in fetish video. I prefer the feminine feeling I get from women's lingerie.

[Leslie Mary S]

No. When I dress I am female and do not wear male clothes. Not even male jeans or tops.

[Robin777]

The answer is no, and I never will.

[alwayshave]

Irony, the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.

[Kiwi Primrose]

No. All underwear and as much as possible outerwear is from the women's department or feminine online .

[Tracy Irving]

Numerous members here have suggested that men's clothing is boring and unimaginative. I can only assume that a bra designed for men would follow that pattern. I will pass.

[Michelle 51]

Not for me either.I love the little things about woman's bras.A hint of lace or a little bow or ribbon plus just something about being designed for a woman.Same as panties.Just the lovely colors woman get to choose from.

[Bruce64]

Nope, I have preferences for Ladies Brassieres.

[AmyVanessa]

Nah, that definitely doesn't appeal to me.
The ones I see in ads don't seem to have any function, and they seem expensive

[Kelli_cd]

First time I heard about lingerie for men I checked whatever website it was. And it was full of crappy looking "lingerie", definitely designed for men. There was nothing cute and sexy about it. Didn't tempt me at all.
I only wear lingerie designed with women in mind. Cute, pretty and sexy. Like me!

[jacques]

hello all,
many thanks for your thoughts. I tend to agree that wearing a bra designed for men is not really crossdressing - but perhaps blurring the gender stereotypes will make the world a more tolerant place?
luv J
(sorry for not replying sooner)

[Beverley Sims]

Never been to a men's lingerie store either.......

No there's a thought....:-)

[Rhonda Jean]

Before you dismiss it as boring or whatever, you might want to have a look at xdress or HommeMystere. I don't want anything marketed to men, but I'm way in favor of men wearing pretty things, and if it takes buying something supposedly "made for men" to get them into lingerie this hot, I'm all for it!

[Tina B.]

found a site on line just today selling lace panties some marked for men, strange looking things with pretty pink lace and a pocket in the front. since I tuck, not sure what to put in the little pocket. some marked for men/women they weren't bad looking, but they were for men/women, not women, so I had no interest in them. I've been dressing for around 65 years and never even thought about wearing something made for the fetish crowd. It may be good for them, but I'M A CROSSDRESSER and to cross it means women's wear.

[NancySue]

I can’t think of one reason I’d ever even think about it. All my bras fit very comfortably and look very feminine.

Well Rhonda, that is an original thought.

Not for me but I will await other comments, we are mostly negative here, including me but what about others that may be here?

[Rebecca60]

I have seen them, But only in catalogs. not to fancy. I think it'll take the fun out of dressing in women's clothes

[Lacy PJs]

Call me contrarian but it would depend... depend on fit!

If I could only find something like this...
296879

I wouldn't care WHAT the label said, I'd get them in a heartbeat!

Since men are "usually" taller than women and their body proportions are different, there are some things out there that taller men (I'm well past 6') just can't find in a women's style. Most anything like a teddie, one-piece bathing suit or even most leotards just don't come in sizes that are long enough for many of us. More power to those of you who can find things the right length but for a lot of us, "...it just ain't a happenin'"

Oh yes, I've tried the plus sizes from several companies that cater to the "fuller figured" woman and even those are't long enough in the torso to fit comfortably. So if someone could show me a teddie like the ones above that was about six inches longer than usual, I'm signing up. Besides, what difference does it make if the items are made from the same kind of materials and styles only in some different dimensions? No difference to me...

[Rachelish]

I can see the logic behind the idea but I wouldn't say logic plays much part in what we do :)

[Cheryl T]

Like many others I must say NO.
I have quite a few bras and am very happy that they are expressly feminine. I certainly don't need something designed for a male.
This reminds me of the "Man-T-Hose" that were prevalent a number of years ago. Just because they had a pouch in the front they were supposed to be for men. I'll stick to my Hanes Silk Reflections thank you.

[laurenchanning]

Yes...and the man was Rupaul. :)

[Roxanne Lanyon]

Good lord, no! No "man" hings for me (unless, of course, it is a real man!) Just pretty Girl things, thank you very much!
