Cross Dressing - Weird?

[Olivia]

Okay guys, this is sappy, lemme remind you of what a cross dresser looks like.

http://www.freewebs.com/epiepel/crossdresser%201.jpg[/img]

I'm sorry, we put clothes on our bodies to make ourselves presentable and to cover our nudity, not to make ourselves into men, and not into women, to pruce of what kind of things(people) were sexually attracted to. Women wear what clothes they want, but most clothes (even suits) look okay on them, and it's become a custom. As for men, they wear ordinary clothes but excuse me for saying, but dresses (except for certain types) look HIDEOUS on them, especially with make up and high heels. Why? Because the clothing wasn't designed for men.

And I'm sorry if I look arrogant, but I would not like a future generation of cross dressers. Cross dressing doesn't have to do anything with sexuality, and some men who convince themselves that they look good as women (or just good individually) must have bumped their head somewhere because I highly doubt that if I was thoroughly drunk I would think so. I only found it rare when you saw a man who looked like a woman.

Being gay or straight has nothing to do with their sexuality, I've seen some gays who do not dress that way, okay? I think people who cross dress are being stupid or has something mentally wrong; they usually do, things such as manic depression, Compulsive disorders and all sorts of boogers.

And people who think, "They should be allowed to wear what they want" is right in some cases. But if it's for shameless meaningless show off, E.G.: Practically half naked women in see through clothing and G-strings, or a man in a hideous dress, yes I wouldn't support it because that is not something I would recommend to be influenced or encouraged throughout the future generation.
Clothes is something we wear for the world to see, and admit it, when people dress up fancy it is usually for presentation, not always only for yourself, but for people around you, we just don't notice it, we wouldn't walk out naked would we? That's because they're a sense of dignity, apparently nudists have none.

It's not because it's different, it's because it's something a sane person would not do.
Opening the door to this opens the door to other things too, such as breast implants, lip implants, female/male genitalia implants. And i'm sorry, those things are gross too.

Society is becoming too tolerant to unnecessary and silly and gross things too, seriously, and becoming intolerant to things that really need our acceptance.

We can't even point out when something isn't right unless it causes a serious problem some people don't like. I know it's slightly off-topic this sentence, but if a man starts to stick dead meat on his  naked body and lets it rot in the hot sun and it becomes a cult among people, would you show it's not behaviour you'd accept in the society, or leave them to it, it may be a part of the society, but not your life?

Sometimes we need logic to realize on what is wrong or right, not gut-instinct all the time.

I know a lot of women who are born women who look like that too.  I guess the same points you'd make for that picture can be made as well?

Besides I could go hunt down a few pics I'm sure that would make men drool until they saw the bulge in the pants I'm sure.

I'm sorry, we put clothes on our bodies to make ourselves presentable and to cover our nudity, not to make ourselves into men, and not into women, to pruce of what kind of things(people) were sexually attracted to. Women wear what clothes they want, but most clothes (even suits) look okay on them, and it's become a custom. As for men, they wear ordinary clothes but excuse me for saying, but dresses (except for certain types) look HIDEOUS on them, especially with make up and high heels. Why? Because the clothing wasn't designed for men.

I don't wear clothes to "cover my shame" (I know you didn't say it, but I love the expression), nor do I wear clothes to spruce myself up for other people.

I wear clothes because it's either A) Cold, or B) I like it.  My own fashion sense.  I don't wear black because it's acceptable, nor because it's what I should wear because it was designed for me, but because it's either A) Cold or B) I like the color.

Just like when I was younger and stuck at the height 5'7" for 3 years before shooting up several inches I'd borrow my tall friend's shoes.  She was a chick, but her shoes were really comfortable and were all green and nice looking.  That and we both have the same foot problem.  Comfort > acceptable behavior, any day.

And I'm sorry if I look arrogant, but I would not like a future generation of cross dressers. Cross dressing doesn't have to do anything with sexuality, and some men who convince themselves that they look good as women (or just good individually) must have bumped their head somewhere because I highly doubt that if I was thoroughly drunk I would think so. I only found it rare when you saw a man who looked like a woman.

Maybe the point for many of them isn't to be as sexy as a runway star.  Perhaps it's a comfort and personal feeling as opposed to "let me doll up to impress so-and-so.

I wear a duster, it's like a trench coat.  Do I wear it because it's acceptable or people think it looks good on me?  Hell no, it's brown and plain with no frills or anything.  And if buttoned up I look like a filing cabinet.  But it's comfortable.

I wear hats, a lot.  I don't have long hair anymore.  I really don't like the sun, long hair used to block it for me.  Was it acceptable?  No I was called fagot and everything else for having long hair, but it was a comfort thing.  Made me feel good.

Being gay or straight has nothing to do with their sexuality, I've seen some gays who do not dress that way, okay?

That's like saying women don't like to wear dresses because I've met a bunch of chicks who do not dress that way, okay?  It's a personal thing, not a uniform.

I think people who cross dress are being stupid or has something mentally wrong; they usually do, things such as manic depression, Compulsive disorders and all sorts of boogers.

I think people who are afraid of cross dressing, alternative ways of expressing oneself, or generally look down on others who aren't harming them in any way eat their own boogers.
I can't explain or figure out why people would care so much, and the only explanation I can think of is all the crap in the air gets sucked into the noses and people pick their noses, eat their pickings, and turn sour.

And people who think, "They should be allowed to wear what they want" is right in some cases. But if it's for shameless meaningless show off, E.G.: Practically half naked women in see through clothing and G-strings, or a man in a hideous dress, yes I wouldn't support it because that is not something I would recommend to be influenced or encouraged throughout the future generation.

I'll say this, I'll agree with you to a point.

No one should go shopping or picking up their nieces and nephews at the playground wearing a see threw shirt and a g-string.  Even if they look good.  They should wait for that at the club with like minded adults in a surrounding appropriate.

However, cross dressing is not the same thing.  That's like saying you shouldn't wear corpse paint to a funeral, but wearing eyeliner is the same thing.

Clothes is something we wear for the world to see, and admit it, when people dress up fancy it is usually for presentation, not always only for yourself, but for people around you, we just don't notice it, we wouldn't walk out naked would we? That's because they're a sense of dignity, apparently nudists have none.

Why do nudists have none?
So when you take your clothes off you lose your dignity?  Or only when with other people your not about to "make love" to?

It's a comfort thing.

I know women who are 85 now who refused to wear heels in the 50's.  OH MY GOD!!! They refused to wear heels and skirts!!!  Seriously that was the reaction level.  You would think they were having orgies and swallowing babies.

Oh, but that's acceptable now.  I guess there's a difference.  Sure they didn't hang out with their friends naked, nor did they wear clothes appropriate for another gender - oh wait they wore pants, that's another gender.  Oops.  Same thing?

It's not because it's different, it's because it's something a sane person would not do.
Opening the door to this opens the door to other things too, such as breast implants, lip implants, female/male genitalia implants. And i'm sorry, those things are gross too.

To you.  Other people like it.

I'm not big on fake body parts but what's the difference between plastic surgery and dressing up to impress again?  Your doing both for self esteem and to impress either yourself or another, no?  Same argument.

We can't even point out when something isn't right unless it causes a serious problem some people don't like. I know it's slightly off-topic this sentence, but if a man starts to stick dead meat on his  naked body and lets it rot in the hot sun and it becomes a cult among people, would you show it's not behaviour you'd accept in the society, or leave them to it, it may be a part of the society, but not your life?

Difference.
We wouldn't allow that as it is a health risk.  It could cause health issues on them and others around them.  It would actually hurt people instead of just making them go "eewwwwll"

And I'm not so much shooting at you but the whole idea of the arguments I hear against these things as taboo (crap) or that it isn't tradition (crap on a stick).

Basically if you don't read it all read this:
There is no difference between cross dressing and breast implants and corpse paint or eye liner.
It's all a comfort thing or an impression thing.  You either want to be comfortable or you want to impress others.  Sometimes you are not trying to impress someone for look alone.  Occasionally you want to be viewed by someone who isn't shallow.

 

[Astromech]

Sometimes we need logic to realize on what is wrong or right, not gut-instinct all the time.

I'm not really sure why it is logical for genders to wear different types of clothing. Considering clothes are just meant to keep us warm. Gender norms are usually just formed by cultural tradition -- very little "logic" to it.

...some men who convince themselves that they look good as women (or just good individually) must have bumped their head somewhere because I highly doubt that if I was thoroughly drunk I would think so.

Well beauty is relative. Considering not everyone is attracted to women, I would take a guess that a few people at least think men "look as good as" women. Besides, even ugly people wear revealing clothes so I'm not sure what personal beauty has to do with it.

We can't even point out when something isn't right unless it causes a serious problem some people don't like. I know it's slightly off-topic this sentence, but if a man starts to stick dead meat on his  naked body and lets it rot in the hot sun and it becomes a cult among people, would you show it's not behaviour you'd accept in the society, or leave them to it, it may be a part of the society, but not your life?

I think there is a difference between someone posing a health risk to those around him and someone dressing against gender standards.

I really don't see why cross dressing presents such a big problem to society. Really, why does it matter how someone dresses? It would be different if people went around basically nude, but cross dressing is just an eccentric fashion sense.

Sixty said everything else I was thinking  :thumb:

 

[Dopples]

I actually have to go with Cruelty on this, people should understand there is a line, and when you cross it, you're fucked, now maybe if it was just makeup, because lots of "Emo" (Lol I hear it so many times but it actually means NOTHING) kids wear makeup, but wearing high heels and stuff, I'm sorry, but that kid really is asking for it, and if I was there and saw him, I probably would have kicked the confused fucker so hard he'd realise he has a penis, and needs to learn how to use it.

Being A trapped inside B is a load of bullshit, I'm sorry, but it is, thats like going to MacDonalds:
"Hey, I'll have the quarter pounder with cheeze"
*Hands burger over*
"WTF, this is a Big Mac, I wanted a quarter pounder !"
*Take it back and exchange*

Now lets put that into this A trapped inside B with gender:
Baby inside womb: "I want to be a girl"
*Baby is born*
*Baby is now a man aged 21*
"WTF, I'm a man, I wanted to be a girl !
*Sex Change*

You see what I mean ?

You can't just randomly decide "This isn't for me", you should live with what you got, not happy ? Commit suicide, I'd rather someone suicide than have a sex change, it's just really wierd and wrong.

Back to cross dressing anyways, Lol...
Cross dressing is wierd, it isn't normal, if it were, you'd see a 6'4 250lb man looking at size 8 Pink dresses, that, is just wrong, he would need kicking and smashing up with something heavy.

People need to get it straight, if you are a male, you look at the "Mens Section", if your a female, you look at "Womens Section", it's as easy as that, there's no excuse, if a man asked me "Do I look good in this dress ?" I really would slap the fucker 'round the head, IT IS NOT NORMAL.

Now, since I've had my moment of open ranting, lets see what others think lol.

Why stop at what they wear, or what sexuality they are? BLONDE HAIR AND BLUE EYES OR IT'S OFF TO THE FUCKING CAMPS WITH YOU JEW BOY.

What I love about this logic is that it's ok for women to wear mens clothes. Lesbians are alright! Fucking hell, you can't pick on a lesbian, no siree! But oh boy, here comes the fag who likes to wear girl pants, he deserves to have hell rain down on him for not being like the rest of the world! And if beating him doesn't change him, make him commit suicide! CAUSE NO-ONE LIKES THE FAG WHO LIKES TO WEAR GIRL PANTS!

In all seriousness, people who think that kids who don't feel like their own gender should kill themselves are pricks, douchebags, and basically ignorant. And as a bisexual myself, I take offense to pricks, douchebags, and ignorant people! It's perfectly fine to not like overly gay people (I dislike total flamers myself), but that's no reason to hit the kid or make him want to commit suicide.

Though I do agree that most crossdressers are fuck ugly. Though I've seen some hot ones.

Hey, I didn't know my last English prof was a crossdressing Icky Fag!  :lol:

Oh wait!

She was born and raised with a cunt!

OOPS! :brain:

EDIT: Man got some nice gams, though.

Honestly, you act as though there are no women who are actually born ugly. There are PLENTY of fuck-ugly women who shouldn't be wearing anything more revealing than a large burlap sack from the forehead down.

http://img.waffleimages.com/884dddd431f ... by_Yam.jpg[/img]
Honestly, look at that. At least that Icky Fag is looking presentable for a photo.

Furthermore, not all guys have to strive to look like this:

I heard a few times someone bring up the word "unnatural", and in my last response I really wanted to touch on that, but instead chose the foolish tactic of slice and dice nit picking.  So, since there is a reprieve, a post from someone after mine whom I have no arguments for, I'll put forth the response I had originally intended.

Cross dressing I will admit, is 100% unnatural.
Dressing is 100% unnatural.  We are born naked, much like several variates of mammal.  We develop further and grow hair, we gain fats, we gain things needed to protect us from the cold - if we survive long enough.  We do not however gain the instinctual need to sew clothing.

If we had, we would all know how to sew.  And not just stitch, no, we'd be able to make clothing.  We would all know how to naturally skin an animal for it's hide.  We would know these things because if it were natural it would be engraved on our very strive to survive.

We know that there is nature, which includes instincts, and yet we confuse ourselves with wordings such as "second nature" and "learned behavior" aka "learned instinct".  Like a person who has trained as a fighter, will naturally have their arms and legs move by reflex before thinking.  It's became part of their life in a way, it is "second nature".  It is as if it were nature.  Clothing is second nature in a sense.  We feel the desire for it, or rather we feel the need perhaps.  For others it's an obligation, and for more something we do reflectively.
As if it were almost instinct, but it's not.

So yes, dressing up in clothes is 100% unnatural.  It doesn't matter if your wearing slacks or a push up bra.  So is make up and television and dog leashes.

If we're so concerned about something so "unnatural" can we at least concern ourselves about something that actually does harm?  Such as toilets.  Yes, toilets.  Sitting on a toilet is unnatural, and it's bad for posture if your an idiot and sit straight up, instead we are natural born squatters.  Squat toilets exist, put more effort into spreading that around instead of making sure people adhere to a man system such as fashion.  You can damage your kidneys, your back, your knees, even your eyes (pressure) sitting on a toilet incorrectly and unnaturally, and it is a cause of hemorrhoids and other nasty things.

So please.  Wear whatever clothes make you comfortable, just make sure you sit on the toilet proper, thanks.

And people who think, "They should be allowed to wear what they want" is right in some cases. But if it's for shameless meaningless show off, E.G.: Practically half naked women in see through clothing and G-strings, or a man in a hideous dress, yes I wouldn't support it because that is not something I would recommend to be influenced or encouraged throughout the future generation.

I have to pipe in here and point out that when you say "I wouldn't support [cross dressing]" you are saying you support opposition to cross-dressing, which means you support oppressing cross-dressing, which means you do not believe "they should be allowed to wear what they want".  You can't have your cake and eat it too, this is meaningless doubletalk.  Either you support personal choice or you support enforced conformity on a given subject, you must decide which and stand firm with complete realization of your intent.  Or of course you can choose to abstain from considering the subject entirely, but you don't do that by being wishy-washy, you do that by not participating in discussion

Clothes is something we wear for the world to see, and admit it, when people dress up fancy it is usually for presentation, not always only for yourself, but for people around you, we just don't notice it, we wouldn't walk out naked would we? That's because they're a sense of dignity, apparently nudists have none.

Nudists have a different sense of dignity, not a lack of it.  They feel the human body in its natural state is dignified, and because they feel that it would be undignified of them to cover it up.  The only reason they go clothed anywhere is that they like clothing more than they like jail.  Personally I'm somewhere in between, in that I don't much like clothing but I also acknowledge that it covers up a lot of things that I don't like to see, so I'll consent to wear clothing if you do.

It's not because it's different, it's because it's something a sane person would not do.
Opening the door to this opens the door to other things too, such as breast implants, lip implants, female/male genitalia implants. And i'm sorry, those things are gross too.

Something you find distasteful is not necessarily insane.  Fundamentally I feel that body modification for any reason except healthy self-expression (as in, "I know what I'm doing and I'm not doing it because I feel I'm ugly without it but because I feel it represents who I am") is wrong, but I don't think that you or I are equipped to decide who is and is not qualified to do it.

Society is becoming too tolerant to unnecessary and silly and gross things too, seriously, and becoming intolerant to things that really need our acceptance.

But if you decide that it's okay for you and your margin of society to decide what is and isn't socially acceptable, and that there should be regulations to restrict what you don't find acceptable, you fundamentally believe that self-expression should be regulated.  It seems nice as long as you're talking about getting rid of things that you don't like, but it's not so great when someone else is using the same excuse to get rid of something you do like.

We can't even point out when something isn't right unless it causes a serious problem some people don't like. I know it's slightly off-topic this sentence, but if a man starts to stick dead meat on his naked body and lets it rot in the hot sun and it becomes a cult among people, would you show it's not behaviour you'd accept in the society, or leave them to it, it may be a part of the society, but not your life?

It's your right to not hang out with stinky meat man, not look at stinky meat man, and not go where stinky meat man and his cult goes.  Conversely it is also you right to hang around stinky meat man and chose not to become a stinky meatite, and if he and his community are offended by that, that's their problem, not yours.  As soon as you claim for yourself the right to regulate him you declare that one person has the right to regulate the behavior of another simply because he is offended by it, and that's what's called a slippery slope.

Sometimes we need logic to realize on what is wrong or right, not gut-instinct all the time.

I don't think all forms of personal expression are reducible to objective, logical theories of right or wrong.  My choice to wear a red shirt is unaffected by morality, unless I live in a society where the color red symbolizes evil.  Likewise Mr. Cross-dresser's choice to wear a dress in any society where dresses aren't considered feminine is irrelevant.  Only when you apply a subjective, illogical point of view based on tradition and social norms can you start arguing about the propriety of either choice of clothing, and therefore it's fallacious to begin a logical argument from those grounds. 

Ultimately if you're going to try objectivist morality on this argument you have to go down to whether social conformity is objectively best for society, and therefore objectively moral, even if the social norm you're conforming to is arbitrary.

 

[Ranusam]

Not only is it weird its fucking queer too. What the hell would possibly make you think otherwise? I'm all for freedom, but this just takes the cake. Men don't need to wear fucking women's clothes. Just be a man and learn to live with the clothes provided for us...

We aren't provided with the clothes we get by force. We have a choice. Damnit, we live in America, let cross dressers do what they want! Also, your "Not only is it weird it's fucking queer too" statement is extremely offensive to gays and the like. So don't go spouting that around, m'kay?

"I'm all for freedom" and take what's provided for you and shut up about it are incompatible statements.  Taking what is given to you and not asking questions is the exact opposite of free thinking, and you are clearly not "all for" freedom.  If you fundamentally agree that certain actions of self-expression should be restricted because they offend you, that's fine, but don't claim you're for freedom and for arbitrary restriction at the same time, you contradict yourself by stating it and damage your ability to think critically by believing it

Furthermore learning to live with what's been provided to you implies that you shouldn't have aspirations to go above and beyond that, which is just a sucky way to live in my opinion and leaves you wide open to oppression and exploitation.  You should always be willing to question what you're told and decide for yourself whether or not to agree.

As for being offensive to gays, as long as I'm breathing I hope you have the right to be offensive to gays and gays have the right to be gay and be offended by you.

 

[sixtyandaquarter]

If anything's fucking queer it's not the guy at the disco bathroom with his face to the hole in a bathroom stall's adjoining wall, it's that god damn statement.

Thanks for reinforcing the idea that people are just completely retarding the world to a state of haphazard stupidity.  The kind that would choke to death on it's own umbilical cord - and that's after it's been snipped.

--
You people do realize dressing up as a woman does not equal homosexual correct?  A lot of women dress in suits - oh my god lesbians?!  Defaultly cross dressing = clothing preference, not sexual preference.

I paint my nails, does that mean I'm making happy at a disco with my face to close to the hole cut in the wall of the bathroom stall?  No.  It means I like having red and black finger nails.

It's not freaky.  It's not universally different.  It's not mental incoherence, nor is it unnatural (given you count clothing in general as natural).  It's a man made construct, gender differences don't exist in style or in expression.  They only exist when accounting for insurance payments and job applications.  Otherwise we made the whole thing up and told people who were just fine to begin with to abide by it, and look at the stupid statements that have come from a world grown on that tradition.

 

[Olivia]

Screw this. If someone cannot figure out why it's weird to cross dress
you can't quite explain why you shouldn't go naked without contradicting yourself.

 

[sixtyandaquarter]

You have yet to say why it's weird.
So... yeah.  Just say it's weird and expect that to explain itself.

The only thing anyone has said as far as trying to convince it's weird is to say it's not the way it should be, and don't explain why - just state it and walk away.  First rule of debate: Be prepared to back up any and all accusations, preferably before someone snags your statements before you can.

Someone said it's unnatural, others gave a reason why it isn't.  Someone said it was gay, someone else said why it wasn't.  No one's shown why it's unnatural, or why it's gay - only stated that it was with a perceived logic of the user, without explaining said logic.

The sky is red.
You can't argue it because I say so.

 

[Sic Semper Tyranosaurus]

Screw this. If someone cannot figure out why it's weird to cross dress
you can't quite explain why you shouldn't go naked without contradicting yourself.

No one is agreeing with my opinionated accusations! I'm going home! 

Learn to back up your statements. Why is it weird? Why doesn't every culture on Earth agree that it's weird? Why do some cultures encourage many people to do it? It's a lot harder to tear a new ass into someone if they can provide coherent arguments instead of shouting "Ewww, icky!  :tongue2:"

Not only is it weird its fucking queer too. What the hell would possibly make you think otherwise? I'm all for freedom, but this just takes the cake. Men don't need to wear fucking women's clothes. Just be a man and learn to live with the clothes provided for us...

"I'm all for freedom, but fuck the personal freedoms of anyone but myself."

In the sense that it differs from normal, sure, it's weird. Whether weird means bad, I sure hope not or I'm a very bad person.  So is anyone else in this forum, because if I know one thing for sure it's that neither the majority of people nor the average person spends their time tinkering with old-school 2d RPGs.  Furthermore, sadly enough there are people in this world who think we shouldn't be allowed to because it's a "waste of time" ... like my younger brother's girlfriend.  I thank God every day people like her and their narrow and selfish ideas of what kind of behavior should be allowed in society don't run the place - if I was stuck with nothing to do every night except get drunk and flail my body around in dance clubs like her I'd hang myself, and that's no joke.

Between you and Sixty's posts, I am drowning in a tepid pool of bright pink love candy.

Must ... Contain ... Feelings ... Must ... Keep ... Shirt ... On

Agh

-----------------------------------------------

Anyway look. People're allowed to feel however they want to feel, no matter how retarded it is. You want to think that gays are gross? Fucking go ahead. You're the only owner of your mind and you can muck it up & dull it out as much as you like.

Just don't act on it! Don't put a bullet in a kid's head who has gender issues! Just pretend you did and be satisfied! That way, your asshole will stay the same size after NOT being thrown in prison :D!

Flamboyancy gets on my nerves, I'll admit. I don't like anyone--man or woman--who parades around in bright pink and acts like a Diva. That personality clashes with my own. For that matter, I'm not very fond of emo's or rednecks. Again, their personalities and traits generally clash with my own.

But disliking people isn't narrow-minded, it's just normal. It's hate that's abnormal. You can hate a guy who sleeps with your wife, and you can hate a guy who kills your dog, and you can hate some chick who just dented your car in the parking lot and took off.

But actually loathing someone you've never met based on some preconceived notions about them IS narrowminded.

Just mind your own shit and you'll be fine. Who fucking cares if some guy enjoys wearing skirts? Who fucking cares if some guy gets his jollies with his mouth pressed against a hole in a bathroom? Who fucking cares if someone has an annoying personality? Is it any of your god-damned business? NO. So mind your own fucking shit and worry about people who personally try to piss you off, like that guy who slept with your wife, or that guy who killed your dog, or that chick who just dented your car in the parking lot and took off.

C'mon, people. It's not rocket science. It's called tolerance. Jebus.
