I keep seeing ads for dresses for men and bras for men, Well that's really a turn off for me I want to wear clothes and accessories made for Women not something improvised to fit a man. I'm just wondering if anyone else feels the same way.

Does seem odd since the whole point is emulating GGs
I'm certainly not interested in male versions of women's clothes. What would be the point?

I think it's a good idea....If it works to get society to buy into men wearing dresses and bra's and such then let them advertise all they want. Besides, if it were to become a viable style, who would be able to tell if it's a man's dress or a woman's dress that you are wearing? In fact, no one would care what we had on. Just a couple of cents worth
Story of my coming out:
http://www.bliss-fire.com/ComingOut.htm
I can see why some would get turned off if you can fit into a womens size 12 or less, or even a 16 or less, and your shoe size is less than womens size 10. You might feel differently if you were larger. I have to search high and low for a womens size 18-20 that fits reasonably well because GGs that are that size are typically as round as they are tall. I have broad shoulders and no big roll in the middle.
So a womens size 20 to fit my broad shoulders and 6'2" frame.....very desirable.....where is that ad???
If the man bra enhanced and shaped better than a woman's bra and still had the tactile feel I might consider it. A dress is a dress, if it fits better and it is attractive to me I would consider it also. However if its tailored to a mans shape I doubt I would like the fit.
Do the men dresses come in pink....with little hearts or kitties printed
on them? I may take a look in that case.
lol!
Yes they have all prints and colors just made in male patterns to hide belly or enhance female shape .
I saw the same type of add on ebay , but in looking at the panty pic I do not see the difference unless it is their depth. I too like designed for women clothes especially panties as so many have said they are more comfy than the male types phylis anne

Well,, Maybe so, but some things made for men in the female role seem to work better that the female version. I use a gaff, which I know works far better than womens panties. They just don't do a decent job of holding things in for long duration dressing. (Especially dancing!) Who really wants to fool around with tape , which I find very irritating. Panties over the gaff are ok and fit the need but can get hot. Everything else female seems to work fine on me though and I would prefer that.

I still would prefer the feminine touch only womens clothing can bring me. It may be for a man but is it lacy? Does it have satin or silk? And the dresses? Do they look feminine at all? (No I haven't seen them) Just curious to know.
The problem with creating these garments for men is that the designers will attempt to masculinize them and they will undoubdtly only be available in the standard male colors of black, dark blue, brown, or gray.

I'm also confused - are you talking about materials or sizes?
If it's materials, then OK, but sizes, well then - my biggest problem in finding some thing to fit is HIPS. I don't have them. I am a size 20 top and waist and a size 12 hip. For dresses my problem is the bottom part is always baggy - tops and skirts I can mix and match, but if I could find a nice dress with 20 at the top and 12 at the bottom in the style I wanted then YES I'd buy it.
And I've experimented with corsets and hip pads, but I actually like to be able to just put on clothes that fit me without having to add lots of extra stuff. Except of course breast forms - can any CDer be complete without them?
I have returned nice clothing that I would really like to keep, and would have kept if they fit properly without needing a tailor.
A little tighter here... a little looser there... a little closer to the rectangular shape of a man versus a woman.

I will have to say that some of this bothers me, but by the same token, in the case of tgfashions.com, if they have corsets, hosiery, or other lingerie designed for men that will fit better than women's lingerie, then I am all for it. They advertise garterbelts specially designed for men with no hips. It may not be 100% the real thing, but, it will work without a lot of modifications, so I am all for it. I think it sucks that I m not built like a GG. In fact, I feel cheated. I wan to buy off the rack GG wear and go with it. However, reality throws in facts like pantyhose rolling down sometimes, or waist cinchers (not corsets) failing to do what they advertise that they do. With this said, if there are feminine items designed for men that will do the same job, I say "Hip, hip, Hooray!"

Not sure turn off is my reaction. Everyone is different and has their own opinions on clothing. If I saw a dress that fits (and I liked it) would not matter if it was made for men.
I've seen a couple of sites like that. One stop shopping for cross dressers. They have EVERYTHING. Besides clothing, they have lingerie, gaffs (to hide your junk), breast forms, wigs and shoes. It begs a question I've pondered for years. Just what percentage of the male population dress in women's clothes of some sort? If you look at these websites, they have a great selection and seem to be doing a great business. I mean face it, without a demand, there would be no business, but there is. I've never really noticed anyone on this site shopping there, including me.
Well here's my two cents. I buy clothes from local stores, like Kohl's, Dillard s and Soma. I want to blend in when I got out in public, so wearing what other women in my area wear would help. Here's something else. It's true some women's clothes don't fit. I wear a medium, (10-12) bottom and a XL top, and a 38c bra. And yes some clothes don't fit, but the majority of things do. That would be the same with GGs. Not every bra, every top, every dress, every bottom fits ALL GGs . That's part of the fun of shopping for clothes. Finding things that are cute and that fit.
man, i feel like a woman
Honestly, the male lingerie ads I have seem make me feel like I am looking at gay porn.
Nothing wrong with gay porn, it is just not my cup of tea.
I wold be very interested in finding some ads for casual day wear; dresses, tops, skirts, etc., specifically made for men.
How many time have we all found that "cutest dress ever" that we couldn't buy because the waist was too short or the bodice too tight...
Do people say bodice any more?
I am Me and Me is OK!

I have never seen such ads but they would not annoy me in the least.
I buy and wear stuff I like/that fits my "strange" body. I could care less where in the store it came from. I don't "dress" in either mode to suit or appeal to others or fit in. That would be plain crazy.
Unfortunately, not all of us fit well in clothes cut for women, Natasha. However, I'm skinny and fortunate enuff to be able to replicate female figures. So, I only buy women's things. Much cheaper and their style is always authentic!
Ginger, I'm glad your gaff works for u. But, I have no problem holding my tuck thru a long nite of dancing with tite, lycra/nylon panties. I wear 2 small pair backward and never, ever worry about fall out!
Tape? Ewwwwww!
U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.
Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!
Thank you for all the great replies, That is so true if it gets rid of the taboo that others have about us then your absolutely right advertise away I however will stick to buying my 100% female attire. I don't worry much about gaff. Thank you
I love the IDEA, but rarely is the quality, style etc really a viable option for me.
I have to say that I would never buy anything like this. Items made for men or
designed for men, really do not appeal to me at all.
But for the cause, I think advertising these type of items is a good thing.
If the world starts accepting a man in a utility skirt becomes more accepted, then a man
in a dress would not be all that far off.
my sister's reply when I told her how I prefer to dress
"Everyone has there thing, all that matters is that you are happy, love what you do and who you do it with"
Sorry hun but you have it wrong first no one is forcing me to wear female attire I do so with my own free will I just prefer that its actually made for women. If I wanted male skirts I would simply buy some kilt and elevator shoes instead of heels. I want to feel authentic wearing real female attire not a gimmick wearing something similar. Thank you.
