It still allow in the UK to wear anything - no illegal, maybe depend on country, I was wear tights and denim mini skirt that seem to be allow in public Ive wearing many time as cops passing me without stop or ask anything
~ Doug ~
In the US it's illegal to be dressed indecently, but not illegal to crossdress. Also, where would you draw the line? Some people might claim that all the boys wearing girls skinny jeans are crossdressing.
~ Rod ~
is it legal to crossdress when outside as a female
~ Andy M ~
epilators have been suggested. I've just bought a Braun and done my first epilate session. So far so good, but still a long way from hair free legs (which are essential for any tights wearing!!!)
~ Adrian ~
With winter on the way I shall be cutting down on heating bills by wearing opaque tights with a wool kilt.
~ 2craze2 ~
@badleg: Try Elbeo Sheer Magic or Elbeo Caresse. Size XL is available. They really do help...
~ 2craze2 ~
Ordered some tights from Emilio Cavallini, they're great! Good stretch, warm, opaque. Good replacement for my regular sock-wearing.

I am the one who started this blog! I am a 50-something married man living in the UK and working for a government department. I have 4 kids and a number of interests besides hosiery. I have been wearing tights on and off most of my life, either secretly for the warmth and feel-good factor, or more lately, openly as part of a male outfit.

Mike has been around in the cyber ‘men in tights scene’ for some years now and is known as the author of the ‘Wonderful World of Welts – Mike and Olga’ series that is published monthly on this Blog. Reading his articles on this site (click on his avatar on the right) will tell you more about him that can ever be included in this short summary.
He lives on the South Coast of the UK and wears – he says – everyday. Mostly stw skin tones so they are not always noticeable with shorts. He is often on our chat link from about 10pm (UK time), and looks forward to chatting with you.

Hello, I am a 44 years old french male tights wearer, and I live in the south of France. I have been wearing tights all my life except from 6 to 8 years old. Until I got access to Internet, I felt like you, readers, alone on the earth to wear tights as a man. I have met Geraden on another site in 2002 or 2003, I believe. I am happy that this blog becomes more and more international since, beside myself, we enjoy the contributions of lots of other people living abroad, either as occasional or regular redactors.

Although I first began wearing tights 40 years ago, at a very young age, the last 20 years of my life have been fairly tights-free. It's only because of sites like Geraden's Blog, that promote the movement to make tights a socially accepted part of the male wardrobe, that my interest in tights has been rekindled. I now wear tights with shorts in public on a regular basis, which is something I believe every man with the 'nylon gene' should be doing. I can certainly recommend it! If you share the vision of this blog, and have thoughts you'd like to share, this is a great place to air your views!

I have been wearing tights now for 3 1/2 years. My fiance and I enjoy being out in tights with shorts. I have convinced her, her legs look hot in tights.

Hi Geraden,

  • I have not been able to contact you through my yahoo email, so I am trying this way. I am manleggs in LAUF. Although, I have been wearing

pantyhose/tights periodically for over 20 years, my choice to wear has become nearly a daily preference now. I have recently been contributing to sites concerned with the idea of male pantyhose/tights. There are many reasons I choose to wear, but honestly the main reason is because I enjoy the feel of the fabric and the look it gives my legs. Certainly I get to enjoy the other benefits too. The reason I am requesting to join your private pages is because I am interested in the trials and tribulations others have dealt with and the thoughts they have in reasoning with a sometimes unreasonable world. I have read your blog and several other sites where you have commented. You are indeed a spokesman for the cause. I am interested in more of what you have to say. Please consider this request. Thanks, Mike

Thank you for the advice, Lldudno. William Hogarth has always been one of my favourite among British artists.

Browsed again among his paintings and graphics. And yes, there is lot of hosiery in Hogarth's works. During the early and mid 18th century men didn't anymore wear tights but some kind of knee high stockings which were knit either of silk or wool.

Regards,

Kaj
