Mother-in-law Noticed

A couple weekends ago I went to the air port to pick up my mother-in-law and sister-in-law. My sister-in-law was coming up to start collage at BYU-Idaho, and they where spending a week and a half here before heading up to Rexburg, ID. That day I was wearing a white collarless polo that I got from working at Liberty Tax, green shorts, and L'eggs Sheer Energy tan pantyhose. So when we where walking to the baggage pickup for where my sister-in-law was, I walked ahead of my wife and mother-in-law to be with my daughter at the end of the moving side walk. While I was in front of them, my mother-in-law asked my wife if I was wearing hose, and she replied I was. So she asked why? My wife responded because I like to wear them. They had a good laugh, and when I could ask them what they where laughing about, my mother-in-law responded with how much better my legs look than hers. I smiled because I knew she had noticed and didn't take long for her to notice. My sister-in-law took a few days to notice, but she let me know by asking out loud if I was wearing, so my wife and I explained to her why. So that didn't go so bad for the first time exposing that bit about me to my mother-in-law and sister-in-law. I just went for it and didn't care what they had to say, because this is me, and I wanted to let them know in my own way. When my parents came and visited me earlier in the summer, they didn't say anything to me or my wife, so I don't know if they noticed or not, but they didn't say anything.

Follow-up on going through my pantyhose

It took around 2 and a half weeks to go through all my pantyhose, partly because it got cold and so I had to go to tights for a while. But I got through them and found to have 4 pairs that where still good, three that I wanted to still keep, and all the others where bad. Now a lot of my collection was from over time and never really worn out in the public. So by going through them when it was still cool outside, I could wearer them under jeans and if the where a bad pair, then I was ok with still wearing them one last time. Now I'm down to two pairs from where I started, and I'm now able to try new products. My latest purchase was Sheer Energy by L'eggs in tan. But one thing I didn't look to closely at was the size, instead of Qnueen size, I got Queen Plus. These are a little big on me, but I can see why people like them, they are thick and provides great support, especially after playing soccer when my body isn't use to that much exercise. I could feel the soreness return to my legs right after I took them off. Great leg support.

Pantyhose Cleanup

I'm starting a new thing as of yesterday to help weed out what pantyhose I have are good and what I need to set aside. I am going to wear all of my pantyhose one per day, that I have in my drawer and deciding what is good and what isn't as far as the condition of the pantyhose are. This is something that you can do to if your like me and have been wearing tights all fall and winter long. Basically what I'm doing is that I'm going to wear one pair of pantyhose each day under slacks/jeans while it's still cool outside for shorts and pantyhose. This way I can see how they feel, if their are any run's, ladders, or wholes in them. Then if they are not good or uncomfortable, then I am going to stick them into a bag (I'm using a plastic grocery bag), so that way in the end I can see what I have that is good for this spring/summer season and what I might need to get. I'll figure out what to do with what is in the bag later.

Valentine's Day

Today was pretty normal, work and relax at home. And because today was Valentine's Day, I decided to wear my red tights from L'eggs that I got almost 10 years ago (and it lasted this long because I don't wear it often). I just wore them under my slacks at work because Mondays are normally business attire. But after work I put on my shorts and showed them off. My family is use to me wearing tights with shorts, and I like wearing my shorts because of the freedom of the legs, and what better way to wear shorts in the winter than with tights. After dinner we needed to do some shopping, so I just put on my shoes and a hoodie and went out with my bright red legs showing. I didn't notice if anyone was watching, but I had fun going out with red tights on Valentine's Day. Have a great week everyone.

Hello World

What I'm trying to do with this blog is help spread the acceptance of men in hosiery of all forms. This includes tights, pantyhose, and all forms of socks. It's a growing fashion, and their are lots of men out their that don't know yet that it's OK to wear pantyhose. Their are some people out their that can really benefit from some forms of full leg compression, like those with varicose veins or who have restless leg syndrome. Having some form of presser can help re-leave the pain. I personally don't have any of those problems, I wear lower body hosiery for the warmth. I have also fairly resiliently found out that this was a growing fashion, and that their where men out their all across the world that are sporting wearing pantyhose. So this spring and summer will be fairly new experience for me, wearing pantyhose so openly, and with shorts. I did manage to catch the end of last summer and I have found that it's really no problem wearing pantyhose openly. I also have been recently wearing tights with shorts here in the fall and winter. So I hope this blog will help everyone gain an understanding to what is going on around the world, and so I can share my experience with everyone. I hope everyone enjoys it, and see you in future posts.
