In the winter, I usually wear thigh highs. I got some 50 denier ones from MyTights, that look like regular men's dress socks where the public can see them when I sit. I find them much more practical than even silk long underwear beneath a suit, because the longies tend to bunch up at theabdomen. And no one need know that they have a fancy lace top. Now that I am tight lacing, I sure don't want to deal with anything extra beneath the bottom of the corset.

Male followers of utopian philosopher and economist, Count Claude Henri de Saint-Simon, at the time adopted the corset precisely because it was impossible to lace up alone. Having to help each other with the ties symbolised the humanitarian helping-other ideals of the Saint-Simonien movement." Don't know if it's true, but the I love the idea of a bunch of idealistic French dandies wearing corsets as a symbol of their beliefs...

ALthough i'm really liking the return of wearing tailored vests in kind of a sendup of formalwear to informal events. what can I say, I like dressing up ;) hmm...now i'm going to have to toy around with wearing my corset to more everyday events....hmmmm Thu, 15 Feb 2007 17:28:04 GMT http://corsets.tribe.net/thread/e7f76bdf-ef65-4573-aa21-fcacebf6c6ce#48e65658-a7c2-4e22-9227-31569630dda7 Tim 2007-02-15T17:28:04Z http://corsets.tribe.net/thread/e7f76bdf-ef65-4573-aa21-fcacebf6c6ce#72fe771a-c066-488b-9d0b-a70c93edfdce it's pretty shocking to the mainstream. Hell, women wearing corsets is pretty shocking to the mainstream!!

My sweetie wears a corset often. I love it. I'll even post a photo of it here--it's one of him wearing it at Burning Man. He also wears kilts--and has a nice skirt that he wears from time to time as well. I mean really--is this so shocking to anyone at this point? Women have been wearing what was always considered "men's" clothing for decades now---why shouldn't the guys get a shot at what they like that we wear?
