After getting tremendous encouragement from community members,here going to share another incident.
So i am from India and usually once or twice i would visit my family and friends over there.This has been going on from couple of years and every year i am noticing lot of changes going on. I mean everything, from expensive automobiles to high end smartphones,fashion etc. Now society is more open, i can't say about other regions but mine is doing alot. The town now a city,I remember the most difficult task was to buy "mens briefs" , yess!! mens brief, i sound weird but thats true,everybody would just go and use a codeword like thing, then the shopkeeper with eye measurement gives you your stuff and that too in black carry bag ok,fast forward now. {I have attached picture of what kind of store i am talking about :P}
This year i thought i should buy stuff for me ,i mean womens one and lets see how it has changed.I went to shop with lot of girls, nobody seems to care and i asked for women panties.
Then the guy just looked at my figure and said "do you know the size?" and i said "i don't have any idea but..." then i said loudly,"brought xl" one and without hesitation he was showing all colors and information about fabrics,bla bla bla so on... and when i paid and was leaving he said "next week we would have more stuff, give that a shot you would like that" and i dont know what to say :P i just said "thanks"
Next, I went to another one and feeling more confident, i just told them that i was looking stuff for me and the girl selling was quite keen in assisting me and for me it was win win situation.she was very nice and asked me if i want to try those and questions like "are you wearing those right now?" " any bras for you?" "we have valentine stuff also" and told me many men are buying stuff for them openly.we did chatted for 20 minutes about girly stuff and At the end of my shopping conquest i bought couple of those and thanks her for wonderful experience.She did give me her contact so that if i wanted to buy more all i have to do is just send her pictures of what kind of stuff i am looking for,she would arrange.
I was pretty amazed at how things went very well, i am not criticizing my country but there were times when society was and still is conservative but now i can feel those change in perception. May be because of internet or they just care about business but one thing for sure,it is positive signal and hope for best of best.
What do you think about it? please do share your experience when you felt the same ;*
Thanks
