My first interest in woman's clothing came when I was a young child, possibly even a toddler. I loved the feeling of nylon tights! Of course, at that age it was nothing more than tactile sensory stimulation. I remember one particular occasion where I was sat on the floor around my grandmas house and kept running my hands up and down my mum's nyloned shins. Mum and grandma laughed and smiled at my behaviour and at the silliness of it all.
"He's always liked the feel of tights" Mum said as I paused my rubbing. That statement of the moment has always stuck with me. At that age, I had no real idea what tights were, I just liked the feeling on my hands, although on some unconscious level I appreciated the look of them as well, but could not articulate it.
"Ooh, its your turn now" Mum said, a twinkle in her eye as I headed over to my grandma's legs and resumed my rubbing on her nylons. More gentle though, in my eyes Grandma was elderly and delicate (although she lived for a further twenty years or so more after this event - so perhaps she wasn't that elderly or delicate after all!). Besides, I wasn't quite so keen on Grandma's nylons, perhaps because she was wearing knee highs which were clearly visible, gave off the appearance delicacy. As if too much rubbing make them fall down. Mum may have been wearing knee highs as well, but I could never tell.
Dear Alex ,
Pantyhose are my favourite Feminine garment.
It was the first Female piece of clothing I wore as a child.
When I crossdress , it´s always with either pantyhose or hold-ups.
Love Sylvia.
I had the same fascination with women' legs in nylons. I liked to get close to women's nyloned legs, see the mesh and touch their silky legs. Mom and dad were not thrilled and neither was the ladies.
Dad got quite harsh with me. Mom was more gentle. She gave me my own pantyhose and stockings to play with. I would slip my stockings or pantyhose on. I loved the feeling on my legs. I would see the mesh, admire my legs and stroke and caress them. It was wonderful.
Then I discovered a pair of heels and slipped them on. They were way to big, but I loved walking around in them with my pantyhose on. Mom told me if I left my room I had to coverup. She suggested I wear a shirt. I really wanted a dress, but mom said no. Just wear the short. It was ok. It looked like I was wearing a short dress.
Then I discovered bras. I wanted to try them. Mom gave me a few. I loved wearing my pantyhose, heels and bra. if I left my room, I put on a shirt. I kept asking for a dress, but I had to settle for the shirts.
I didn't get my first dress until I was 18. But I did grow up wearing pantyhose, heels and a bra.
Tights are a mainstay in my transformation to Wendy. They not only feel great, but look fantastic. I am partical to opaque tights, the higher the den the better.
One thing I'm starting to do is take a good pair of tights, and in the crotch/gusset area, take a paid of scissors and cut a hole in that area for bathroom use.
I'm the other way round, I prefer low denier, although I think oqaque are comfier. I couldn't cut my tights like that, although going to the toilet is a little awkward sometimes, mostly due to the hitched up skirt/dress falling down, then the pain of getting the tights back up again afterwards. Still its the awkwardness which makes it fun for me :D.
I did cut the waistband out of a pair of sheer black tights once as I'm not too fond of the waistband digging into my tummy. It fixed the problem, but now the tights work their way down my legs within about a minute :D.
I always get a little thrill when I realise a lady is wearing nude tights. Also if a lady is wearing opaque tights, I like to work whether their tights or leggings.
Also fun to realise whether their actual tights or knee highs.
Tights for me are the thing that first captivated me as a small boy. Always loved wearing them and get a slight thrill seeing them on others. Prefer sheer to opaques but wear either.
It's a frustration that seems to be that Tights are classed as female when originally were worn by men. How did that happen!
Just like all clothing, in the olden days both men and women wore dresses and tights etc (although different to todays clothing I suppose).
Tights are the first thing that set me on the path to crossdressing. I must have been 6 or 7 when I curiously tried on a pair of my mom's suntan pantyhose. From that point on it lead to every other article of clothing in my mom and sister's closet. By my early teens I knew I was a crossdresser and accepted it. Tights and pantyhose have always been my borderline obsession. I don't care who is wearing them in public, I can't help myself from staring. I own so many pairs and still feel like I'm on an endless quest to find the perfect pantyhose. This quest may never end lol.
Hoping this will reply to everyone!
Tights certainly have a hold over us as crossdressers. I can't say I was interested in wearing tights until my pre-teen years. For me skirts and dresses were my gateway drug.
Dear Cloe ,
I know about the staring part.
When I see a woman in pantyhose , I can't help myself , I just have to look.
I often think : that's a nice one I wonder where she bought them !
P.S. When you have found the perfect pantyhose , please let us know
so we can buy them too !😉
Love Sylvia.
I was drawn to pantyhose at first as well. Seeing them drying over the shower curtain rod and on my mom and sister, my teachers and well most women as they were worn by most back then. Then that first time actually trying a pair on and boom… I was hooked and the start of my crossdressing!
Thats interesting Alex,
when I was younger maybe 8 to 10 we would sit and watch TV with a blanket on us in the winter.
My blanket has a strip about 3 inches wide on the ends made out of a satin like material.
I would sit and watch TV and rub that wonderful satin between my fingers.
Of course it carried over to spadex and tights also ,always loved shiny satin leggings and tights .
woman get top wear the prettiest cloths.
I love it
Huggs Patty
Superheros wore tights too.
Love your accounts of your true younger self. Innocent of a world that was rigid Patty Hose!
