    Such a gd simple thought and somehow we humans like to make everything so stupidly complicated. You can wear X but only if you’re Y and not in combination with Z because then you’re a bad person.

    It’s so tiring.

      Picture is slightly altered and made to look like an unaltered book page, but still I think it represents the source well.

      You can see the smudge on the “or” is present in the original too, so we can tell that it was copied from there.

    men’s clothes are just about gender neutral. i guess back in the day, women weren’t supposed to wear pants… but in modern times only a suit and tie are really pushing it for a woman to wear.
    but just about everything else is considered normal.
    but if a male wears a dress, everyone loses their minds.

      I have a few kilts, don’t wear them much. They’re really not all they’re cracked up to be. And not with my scrawny legs.

      Women I’ve dated, and my wife now, hated to see me in a “skirt”. I mean to say they were visibly repulsed.

    Less wholesome if you were to ask the authors about a man feeling that he looks better in women’s clothes.

    “A simple question of good and evil” is kind of a funny phrase 😆

    I have my suspicions those are not men’s clothes, but we’re designed for her specifically.

    For a moment I thought the coat she is putting on/taking off was part of the other lady’s dress. I was intrigued by where her left arm was going.

    It’s too bad that “modern” people can have the attitude of “If it makes you happy, go for it”. Everyone wants to tell everyone else how they should live.

      She’s asked the artist to give her the hourglass figure and the artist just went “okie dokie”

      No but a sufficiently suffocating whalebone corset probably will.
