Men In Tights

I came across the below article today:

Men In Tights: The Latest Trend?

It seems that a lot of designers are using tights in their shows however the reality seems that it's this current cold snap rather than a desire to follow fashion that has sent blokes searching through their partners' drawers. I didn't even realise that there was a store that did tights for men and the idea of a fly in them seems a bit odd. The writer is correct though crossdressers will most likely go for women's tights.So much softer and patterned I expect. You can see men's tights as being a very functional rather than a fashionable item for showing off your legs.

It's interesting to read some of the comments below the article ranging from the usual whines of "gay" to the delights of many men in macho professions such as the police and army admitting to wearing them on cold night shifts to keep them warm. Of course these can easily be popped under a pair of trousers rather than being on full display.

The reporter used an odd phrase though 'my female' to describe his partner as if he doesn't quite know what she is to him.

Anyway, it's certainly a good thing and it's interesting to see how the ways the world has been turning recently.
