The worst thing that can happen is 5 minutes of embarassment followed by years of pleasure.>>>Your money's the same colour as anybody else's.>>>Rich>>>>>Yea, Rich! I usually buy fashion tights as opposed to actual dancewear (I haven't found a brand of men's tights that feel good to me- though, thanks to the guys on this board- Hey, BalletMaster!-that's sure to change soon). So I find myself in Hosiery departments fairly often, a place, by some peoples lights, I have NO business being in! I find the responses I get are usually the generic quick stare as they ring me up, but every so often some dame'll just flat glare at me. I figure, either she's got something "wierd" that turns HER on, or if she doesn't, well, what a drag for her! I get embarrassed in these situations (but not too embarrassed, I mean, it isn't like I'm buying Tommy Hilfiger or something), but that stops the minute I "make my getaway." Just make sure there isn't some clown around who wants to display his manhood by pushing you around, and learn to look at these kind of people with pity. I do!>>>>>I should also say that, about as often as I run into some seeming guardian of decency, I end up with a salesgirl who's downright friendly, or even enthusiastic about what I'm buying (the first time I bought tights at Macy's, the salesgirl praised my selection, and told me I'd love them. She was right!) So have fun, and take a chance! Just don't do anything that might result in permanent damage (ex. I wouldn't shop for tights at a Wal-Mart...)>>-Depon>>Actually, I sometimes find the embarassment rather exciting, in a fearful kind of way. Maybe it's rekindling the fear of Mom finding me in tights, or something. Anyway, onto better things: Try DKNY tights. I find they're rather comfortable and accomodating for the tall guy. The only thing is to beware of the ones in small packages (they're usually not very opaque for guys 6' tall, resulting in a pantyhose kind of look).> >>>Hey, Gary! Haven't heard from you before, are you new to the board? Great posts-hope to read a lot more in the future. I'm already crazy for DKNYs-the superopaques, though lately hard to find, are my absolute favorites, and I've got two pair of the lighter ones (I couldn't agree more, they're a bit too sheer for my tastes-but I love the way they feel!) Since Charter Club seems to be out of the running this winter (wot gives, Macy's?), me and Donna are gonna be datin' steady (don't tell my girl.)-Depon Answers to this message: |
