I think a lot of people just have an automatic reaction to people who are different. |

Because it IS weird |

It's weird. I'm sorry but that's just my opinion. Men and women have had different types of dress for 1000's of years and I don't think society is ready to change. It took years for women and African Americans to get their rights and even after that there was tension for years. Even today people are still rascist towards African Americans. Human beings are naturally afraid of the unknown and abnormal. If something is different, it's considered wrong. Pigheaded, yes. My opinion just seems to support that. The point is it'll be a really hard trait to breed out of people and probably won't be accepted for many years. |

It's only weird if he is a high school senior, goes boating with his boss, and his boss wants to fondle his breasts... on a hotel bed. |

Because they are closed minded and can't tell the difference between something they should concern themselves with and something they shouldn't. |

Whoa, whole world ain't against you.
And, people don't like it because it confuses them and they don't want to address something which they goes against 'proper standards' and whatnot. |

Whoa, we're gonna breed closed-mindedness out of people? That's closed-minded of us. |

It's all "different strokes for different folks." People have different lifestyles and some people have a lot more difficulty than others tolerating people who have different lifestyles than they do. It's fine with me, for instance, if some guys would like to have breasts like women -- just because I would never want to do this myself doesn't mean I'd ever think badly of someone who does. It's all very personal and people should be taught when they are little kids to treat everyone with respect and kindness no matter what their lifestyle, religion, ethnicity, sexual prefs, etc. Live and let live. |

I think this is something more people should be helping their kids grow out of. But then, some parents never grew out of it. Sad, really.

Because. We expect men to be men. If men aren't men, who's going to be men? Yes, they can do that, but they can't expect people to not be surprised by it. It is unusual. If a man is going to try to be womanly, I think it should be a serious thing, not a hasty decision. It's just that ... it's different. It's not something that we really discuss and understand. People who think it's weird can learn to live with it. |

The whole problem with this argument is, …………………if I had breasts (I mean great breasts, a wonderful rack) I would walk around feeling my self up, now what kind of image is that gonna leave with the younger folk? Not good I expect!

Men are men, and women are women....and should dress accordingly. I would hope that men and women would feel secure within themselves, to dress accordingly. |

I haven't heard of straight men with an interest in growing breasts. |

icurok  | | posted 30-Apr-2008 4:32am |
I hate to break it to you, but men already have real breasts. Making them more like female breasts doesn't make them more 'real', it only makes them more female. Clothes are just things that you put on you - you can pick and choose what you want to wear. But I don't see anything particularly healthy about refusing to love the skin you're in. |

I don't know, it is kind of weird, right? Weird is OK, though.
I heard once that a friend of a friend is a straight/married cross-dresser, just like you describe. I haven't seen him in years, though. I wonder if he's got boobs now. |

"Why Do People Feel...."
I don't know, I am not a mind reader. Personally, I don't care but thats just me. Most people seem to disagree with me on that one.
"It is just clothing! Material with a specific design. 90% of all crossdresser's are STRAIGHT and MARRIED PROFESSIONALS!"
Perhaps thats just your problem right. Sexual orientation is something you are born with, not to mention something you normally do in private. Clothing preferences is something that you choose, and in public. So since its not a gay thing, it doesn't put you in a protected PC class. And besides, gays and lesbians have been trying to distance themselves from being a stereotype and away from acting like the opposite sex. They're actively trying to be like everyone else. That means they need an outgroup--- and in this case--- you.
It also doesn't help your case that men's clothing are more combtable. Therefore it makes sense to not stigmatize women who wear shorts and t-shirts because otherwise it would be a pain in the ass to wear unconformable clothing. Whereas in the case of a male cross-dresser, you would be going from more comfort to less comfort. Hey, one revolution at a time. Right? |

Are we talking Klinefelter's Syndrome - XXY or X-X-Y ???? Where Klinefelter's Syndrome is a genetic disorder that happens in 1 in every 500 to 1000 male births. Instead of the normal XY chromosomes, these individuals have and extra X chromosome making them XXY. The normal human genetic make up is 46XY. Males usually have one X and one Y chromosome, i.e. the chromosome constitution 46,XY. Males with Klinefelter's syndrome have two X chromosomes (47-XXY), in rare cases three (48-XXXY) or four (49-XXXXY) X-chromosomes. The X-chromosomes carry genes in terms of development of testicles, sex hormone production and physical sex development in general as well as to a certain extent also height growth. Where the male grows breasts?
Or are we talking of another malady? |

People feel this behavior is weird because in actuality it is.... weird. I'll be kind to someone who may choose that life style, but in reality I do not believe we need to be tolerant of people who are crazy. That's why we have insane asylums. |

While not changing the subject, don't all men have breasts? |

Why do I feel like I'm being ranted at? I looked cross eyed at a dresser, does that make me bad? |
| ballin1000 |
Cause you were born what you are and you should embrase your manlyness. |

There are probably far fewer people who like pet tarantulas than like cross-dressing. We don't lock them up. |

It confuses me, but I wouldnt make fun of them. |

As far as I care, men can wear whatever they feel like wearing. Good for them. Why do other people see a problem with that? Because they're narrow-minded and baised, I guess, I don't really think about it.
Breast growing is a different issue. I don't have a problem with it, but I don't think it's right. Operations and hormone taking should only be used when somebody's health is threatened, however, people have a choice and if they choose they want to undergo all these things, then let them.
ps. If my husband wanted to grow boobs, I would not support him in that. |

How would you feel about a totally flat chested woman getting a breast job? |

It's her decision. It's not about how I feel or don't. |

If someone wants to think it's "weird" I guess that's their prerogative. People are uncomfortable with other people for all kinds of reasons, some rational some not. |
| Psychopath | | posted 31-May-2008 7:16pm |
That is because you are weird. You are quite frankly what we normal people refer to as a freak. Sorry to have to be the one to break it to you. Unfortunately, freaks (like yourself) never realise they are freaks...that is part of what makes them freaks in the first place. Do us all a favour and don't publish your garbage surveys about your screwed up personal habits. Thanks to you I just threw up my dinner.
Maybe you might want to try hanging yourself with one those nylons to see if the material is as strong as they say. I guess I will see your friends on CNN when they are being decapitated by some latest Jihad movement.
Goodbye freak. |

| skirtsnhose | | posted 12-Jul-2008 4:32am |
I don't think it's odd at all. Then again, I wear short skirts, pantyhose, and high heels publicly as it is now, and I want to get a great set of breasts (I'm thinking 36DD) so that I can fill out some gorgeous dresses as well. My wife accepts my below-the-waist crossdressing, and I hope she'll come around on my desire for breasts as well. |

People are trained from infancy, to believe in what is right and what is wrong. It's all about social mores. What is uncommon is frowned upon. |

clothing is just clothing nothing weird about it . just wear what ever make you happy . dont dress to satisfy others |
