Enjoy the Season in Girly Fashion

I absolutely love this time of year! Granted, it’s been unseasonably warm, but I can feel the colder weather as it begins to move in. What I love about this time of year is layers of girly clothes. I relate so well to the picture above. I love sliding into a warm pair of leggings and a soft, feminine, sweater and curling up on a chair on our back porch, drinking a warm cup of coffee (preferably of the Irish sort; see below for recipe). Maybe even a flannel blanket. You just can’t do that during the heated months of summer and early fall. But for the early morning or late afternoon in the autumn, it’s such a pleasant feeling, especially on a lazy Saturday.

Do you know something else that is just wonderful? Being able to ditch the T-shirts for heavier clothing. For a boy who has to conceal his girliness, this means bras! Also, walking, hiking, or running in leggings is so doable. People just don’t think anything of it if a man is wearing them in cooler weather (unless they’re girly prints and colors). And then there are cute headbands to keep your ears warm while you’re outside–and girl’s gloves and scarfs too.

I could share a few other girly treats about this season, but I suppose you get the point. Fall is simply a great season to be girly. So, let me encourage you to enjoy the season. Embrace the festivities and weather with open arms. Let this be a time to enjoy casual, soft, warm, and feminine experiences. Enjoy curling up and cuddling up. Enjoy being cute and having gentle charm. Enjoy being you as the world is changing around you.

Much love to you

PS–I weighed in this morning at 203. It’s not a huge drop from 206, but I’ll take it, especially since my weekend diet didn’t really go according to plan and I threw out my back doing KB snatches early in the week. Anyway, I hope your weight-loss journey is going well. And be sure and drop me a line to let me know how it’s going for you.

PPS: While I’m at it, give this Irish Coffee alternative a try. It’s a great body warmer and it will sooth some anxiousness about being outside in your girly cozy outfits:

1 shot Jameson or Tullemore DEW Irish Whiskey

¾ shot Irish Cream Liquor (I prefer McCormicks over Baileys for the $)

8 oz coffee (french press preferred).

a dash of nutmeg

Add the Irish Whiskey first in a pre-warmed cup, pour in the coffee, top it off with the Irish Cream, stir and then add a dash of nutmeg. Don’t stir in the nutmeg. Drink the coffee through the nutmeg to savor the spice.

I sometimes double the recipe for a 20oz Yeti–but definitely drink it slow. If you prefer some extra sweetness, a teaspoon or two of brown sugar should do the trick. It’s not the typical or recommended Irish Coffee, but it’s fantastic.

Slainte Chugat!

Are You Alone?

My heart breaks for boys who wish to break free from the confines of gender expectations and I want you to know that you don’t have to be alone. If anybody gets the “why” of having some boundaries to femininity and some anonymity to their girliness, I know it. I know what it’s like to be alone and to never be able to share. Even now, outside of this blog, my circle of people who understand my girliness is slim. So, I totally get it.

I might not be a counselor, but I can be a friend. I don’t want you to be sad and I certainly don’t want you to feel like you’re on an island. It can be difficult to find others who understand a penchant for girliness, even among our LGBTQ friends who understand what it feels like to “keep it to yourself”. I can’t promise long chats or even to give the right answers, but you can spill it out to me without someone judging. All it takes is a message. Many have messaged me before and sometimes that’s all that they need to do–just to know that there is someone on the other end.

Here’s to wishing for a bright girly boy future

Girly Runs

You know I love fitness. I especially love girly Gym Bunny fitness. I love sliding into my workout panties, yoga pants, sports bras, form-fitting racerback tanks, thin socks and my girly tennis shoes. I love feeling feminine while exercising, and even more, being feminine. It’s as if I have all of this pent up maleness from a night’s slumber, and working out releases manly toxins to let Candie breathe freely and openly. Even if it’s only for an hour or so, this inner, endearing, magnificent girl gets her moment before being confined inside of my male, though somewhat fem, identity.

A majority of my workouts are inside my personal gym filled with all sorts of torture contraptions and my training consists mostly of intense body weight exercises and kettlebell ballistics (e.g. snatches, cleans and presses, and swings. Maybe some day I’ll share a comprehensive training plan for would-be Gym Bunnies.

Occasionally, I force myself to get up earlier than usual to treat Candie to some outside air. Whereas I might want to hit the snooze, Candie is wide-eyed and raring to go. While it’s still mostly dark outside. there’s a fairly good chance that nobody will be out on the cart paths of the golf course behind our house. Many neighbors take advantage of the course to walk and run before the golfers start slicing up the fairways. So, the opportunity to be outside and girly without hastily jumping into a bunker to hide is good. Even with the cloak of darkness, this is a small, overly conservative, town. I might be dressed girly, but I can’t risk being flamboyant. Besides, my wife insists with playful threats that I should be more androgynous than overly feminine. Even with a little less girliness than I would like, having the chance to breathe oxygen into my femmy sports-bra-encased chest, wearing in some cute femmy sneakers, and to fill the brisk breeze across my legging-wrapped thighs, is a delight before skipping back into my manly guise for the day–ugh.

Listen to me girlies, It is important to have opportunities to be more feminine than what is imprisoned in our masculine disguises. It will never be enough to only wear panties and bras underneath our man-clothes. That’s still exciting and fun, especially if the bra happens to have some padding. But to be able to femme it up outdoors is so much more exhilarating, even if it might be somewhat androgynously. So, if you have the opportunity, try a girly run. It’s so much fun and it’s so freeing, especially if you can create a more feminine stride–hopefully, I’ll be able to put a little piece together soon about training a girly gait.

Much love to you!

I will carry the pride of love with me, whether I’m dressed the girly part or not. And with that, I will gladly say, “I’m proud of you!”

From My HeART

Have you ever had your heart set on that new pair of heels, the next pair of panties, the next bra, that sexy babydoll lingerie, or the first dress you’ve owned in years? Of course you have. Me too. The challenge is not as often about what you’d like to have, but how you can get it. I’m talking about our girly budgets. It’s far worse for us girly boys than it is for cis-girls. We have to plan on our guy budgets, life budgets, AND girly budgets.

I’m sure you know where I’m headed. Yes, it’s the shameless/shameful “would you like to donate toward my cause” plea. Can you stay with me, please?

If you know my blog well enough, you know that I have rarely asked for donations (maybe 3 out of over 2,000 posts). Usually, that has been in the form of creating captions for people. The problem with making captions for hire is that it takes away from what I’m trying to accomplish through this blog. I’d much rather encourage girliness and continue to build this positive vibe.

My tumblr has never been about money and I don’t want it to be. Money can ruin friendships. This is a place for me to share some of my happiness in girliness, some aggravations with being a girly boy, and adventures in some girly androgyny. Sometimes it’s a little more edgy, but it’s mostly to encourage guys like us to find comfort and peace with being effeminate in societies that say we shouldn’t be.

I’ve had some friends on tumblr suggest that I should have a patreon or venmo or paypal account. Discretion just doesn’t permit that for me (maybe I don’t understand those well enough). I think you understand. I certainly don’t foresee large amounts of donations either. So, if you’d like to support me in some way, you can send a walmart or amazon e-gift card to my gmail account: [email protected] . Any little bit is appreciated and helps me with life AND girly budgets.

With all of that said, so many of you have supported me with your cheers, comments, and messages. I’m encouraged by our growing tribe of girly boys and I cherish what we share together.

Much love to you all! And please, keep sharing the love of girliness everywhere. We are making a difference–I truly believe that.

…that is Possible

It’s not possible for me–maybe not for many of you–to be the girliest version of you. But we all can be the girliest version of ourselves that is possible. This is what I strive to be myself. As I have shared multiple times, sometimes with a bit of aggravation, my situation only permits a certain framework within I can paint a feminine portrait of myself. But you can count on the fact that I will paint in pink all the way up to the frame!

To be quite honest with you, I grow tired of the whole manly charade. I need more girliness in my life, not a neutral scheme, and certainly not less. Even as I remain male, my whole being is screaming for more “girl” to be shown. I don’t want rough clothing and tough reflections of character. I want panties, bras, leggings, soft, stretchy jeans, shaved legs, painted toes, silky skin, fruity lotions, form-fitting shirts, and adorable shoes. I want to feel feminine in my talk, gestures, and walk. I want to feel fresh, free, and feminine all day long. To answer this deep-seeded desire, I must push the envelope more and more.

I imagine that at some point, I will have to back off. When the paint starts splattering outside the frame, the wife will insist that I keep the paint between the lines. My hope, is that over time, my borders will increase. For the time being though, I will thrive on being the girliest version of me that is within the possibilities of my life–all the way to its edges.

Have a girlier day today than yesterday!
