I suppose he has the right to dress in any fashion he desires.Personally if my blind date showed up in a skirt,heels and 5 o'clock shadow,he'd be dancing alone or with someone other than me. It would be like me showing up wearing moose antlers and a tail. I am not trying to fool anyone into thinking,nor do I want to be a moose, just my preference. Nothing wrong with with the way he dresses or how he wants to present. it's not something you see everyday, I don't think that a heads up is asking too much. Just as he has the right to decide what he wears she has the right to to decide if she would be comfortable with it.
A woman my respect a man who doesn't cower, but they also respect a man who is courteous and understands and realizes that while there is nothing wrong with dressing in a certian way, it is not something that you see everyday, and that not everyone would be comfortable with it.
Walking around with the attitude that I don't care what anyone thinks is fine,but right now you sound like you have a chip on your shoulder. Why take it out on someone who would like the chance to go out with you? Having to assert one's manliness 24/7 sort of seems defensive...Like you have something to prove. Being kind and caring won't take away from your manhood,more likely to enhance it.............. just my :2c:
