We ladies must look desirable; the fashion styles changed to accentuate my hips and my tits, my baby making parts. Thatβs all Iβm here to do anyways. Historically, prly religion upholding the patriarch; same difference. Hide them elbows and ankles!
As a man, I wish clothes would make me feel desirable. I have asked my girlfriend which clothes she would like to see me in, but she says it's not about the clothes. That it doesn't matter. It's more about what I do. So I just dress in plain, comfortable, practical clothes which makes me, well, practical. Useful. I often wish I had options to just be desired for my body, without the pressure to achieve this or that to be desirable. It's a source of sadness for me.
I felt like this as well, but it turns out it was gender dysphoria for me all along. Men being completely invisible is one of the hardest parts of being masc.
Will you marry me?
