Are you a MIFL?

[HollyCD]

I know the term MIAD covers the all inclusive group of us that dress without presenting as female, not just those that specifically wear a dress, but any feminine clothing. After reading more about other members preferences, I get the feeling there are quite a few like myself that really enjoy athletic type leggings, sometimes referred to as yoga pants (not to be confused with tights worn under a skirt or dress). I thought the term MIFL (rhymes with sniffle) would be suitable for Man In Feminine/Female Leggings. When I thought of the term, I realized it also kind of fit with how we feel or wish to be perceived, just swap a couple letters around. So that would make us a MIFL, "for when you really wish you were a MILF, but you're not quite there". (With due respect to all, especially GG's, hope no one is offended by the term)

I'm not sure if u don't understand or I didn't understand your post, Holly?:straightface:

But, I don't know many dressers, whether trans or CD's, that wish to present as MIAD's. We simply have no choice!:sad:

[RADER]

Does that count if you are wearing female Jeans.

[JuliannaS]

I do love leggings.

[paula_16]

Absolutely! Total MIFL. Been wearing them for a year almost exclusively. Feel great, look good, and help with getting the “ma’am’s” when out shopping.

Considering that the term of the MILF acronym derives it?s roots from a porn category and what the letter F suggests no, I am not a MILF. Man in a dress is much more mild of a designation but I try to go beyond the MIAD designation. I am just me, that is how I label myself.

[JulieC]

Yeah, I don't like labels either. We get so caught up in trying to define who someone is by a certain label. I'm not a label. I'm me. You can't define me. Even I can't define me, try as I might. I'm just me. Mind you, I'm not complaining about the original post or responses! :)

Labels aren't my thing so I don't care what you call yourself or like to be called.
Leggings ... I love them in cooler weather. They are comfortable and warm and can be a style statement as well. Just please don't call me a MIFL or a MIAD or anything else like that.
Just call me Cheryl

[Linda E. Woodworth]

NO I am not a MILF which doesn't have a thing to do with Leggings, which I don't like anyway.

I try to be as passable as possible.

[Taylor186]

Leggings are my thing. Well, one of many. But no need for the F. MIL is sufficient. We don't use the acronym MIAFD do we?

[Micki_Finn]

I don’t think we need specific terms for each favored article of clothing. In my interpretation “MIAD” doesn’t specifically have to be in a dress, but more a general reference for anyone who dresses without the intent to look like a woman.

[Taylor186]

Oh, was this a serious thread? I thought it was a bit of fun. If serious, I agree with Miki.

[Brenn]

I'm not sure we need yet another acronym or term. Just wear what you want and have fun! I do like leggings though!

[Beverley Sims]

I don't go out half dressed ever, I just present female all the time.

No stress or worry that way.

[Suranne]

Labels eh?!!! We do like to label ourselves :) Me, no, however I present I'm not MIAD or MIFL, I don't recognise male or female, I'm me.

[Cheryl T]

No, definitely not. While I love leggings I'm not a MIFL.

[JenniferMBlack]

I think we just call the all gender nonconforming now.

[Angela Marie]

Absolutely. My daily wear. Have over 80 pairs.

I'll have to look down into my bowl of alphabet soup and see what floats to the top today!
