Just thinking aloud; me as a "crossdresser"




I just realized a couple of weeks ago.



I can still remember "declining" my friends from MCC to “crossdress” for our annual anniversary. I’m really not comfortable wearing a gown or other ladies or girl clothes, and I believed (Wow! Parang pang Mr. Gay Pageant!) that being gay doesn’t mean that "we" want to become a girl/female; as I further explained to some of my colleagues, being gay (also) means you have certain feelings towards the same sex, without wanting to be the opposite sex. I still want to be a guy, its just; I want guys.



So, wearing girly girl clothes is a no-no for me; that was what I thought.



I was searching for some favorite shirts in my closet and found it; a small sized white shirt with the word “Angel” and a heart design, plus a picture of a guy sitting down with some “emo” writings on it. If I wear it, it becomes a bit of a muscle shirt, since it fits me “perfectly,” and it struck me. I remember declining several times with my friends and old housemates, and I just realized that I’ve been “crossdressing” since 2008ish.



*Picture at that old glorietta gone to dust. I miss that place.
Here’s a picture of my former partner when we bought a shirt with the same design; the salesladies were surprised that we were able to wear it. (*One of my kikoy rule in a relationship is to have a shirt with my then partners with the same design.)
*Taken last December 2010; Christmas party.
Then the same store released a series of white shirts with nifty designs, and they’re selling those for 99php for girls and 150 for guys. I actually tried one and it fits! However, there were a couple of angles when you look at me, that makes me looks gay, but hell, I am one! What differ was I still I “act” manly; achooo! Hehehehe…
Come to think of it, being "slim" is not all that bad, we get to buy "cheaper" lady or girl clothes which is about 50% cheaper than the usual guy shirts you see around

Nothing, just sharing some thoughts.

  3. It fits you well. Really.

    Anyway if you're perfectly comfy wearing it then why let other people be a bother? :)

  4. You mentioned Glorietta 2. I'm depressed :(

    Anyways, you'd always look good in guy clothes. Ineng, sayang ang pag yoga-yoga at pag gym-gym mo, ano. :)

    (just let the cross-dressing thing be a guilty pleasure, yung tipong pag nag-iisa ka, you'd dress up, hrhrhr!)

  5. @Guyrony, THanks for that comment.
    I actually don't bother/ and get bothered at the same time, its just there are epic fail moments when 1 of my "blouses" haha!! really really really looks like a girl's shirt... But yeah, 90% of the time, I don't and I'm actually proud to wear those kind of shirts, and they'll get surprised knowing that its for gurls.

    @Sheenah, Hmm,bakit naman na depress sa Glorietta 2? Miss ko na rin yun, dami dun gusto kong shops.
    Haha!! Thanks for the comment, nakuha ko lang naman pananamit ko sayo. Tipong pwedeng magsuot ng sako ng bigas and they'd ask what botique did you buy it....

    I don't think I'd EVER wear a gown... Hehehe...

    Masaya na ko sa girl shirts na unisex design na hindi mukang pang girl!

  6. Yeah, they've said it already, but you look good on those shirts. And that's still not really cross-dressing, so I'll still say congratulations for not giving in to the pressure. =P
