I am a 30 year old straight man. I like wearing opaque tights (black usually) under my jeans. Would women find this really weird or off-putting?

Tights/leggings for men is not a new trend - one that's been around for years. It's time to get over the body image constraints and go for the comfort. Just wear them. They are fine on their own - no need to wear "baggies" over them. Leggings are perfect casual wear for women AND men. Having worn leggings for years, I'm aware of people's comments both negative and very positive. After all, it’s not the leggings on the man but the man in the leggings. Everyone looks good in leggings and some people look great!
If more people, women and men, wear leggings then it will just be another apparel choice. At one time denim jeans were worn only by miners digging for gold. Now they are everywhere.
So never say never - when you do decide to wear leggings, choose a well made pair - not with cotton fibers that bag out over time but a high tech fiber that retains its shape. Go for the comfort and support. Leggings that go to the ankle look better than capri style that chop the leg. Plus the full length leggings support you from your ankle to your waist and give you an energetic lift. Laugh, Live, Love & Enjoy! Check out www.UnJeans.com

Guys have been wearing tights for hundreds of years - Long before the girls discovered them. Now, as to the current day attitude towards tights. Many tights are unisex, generally most woman's tights while not normally "made" for a man most do fit when you purchase the right size.
As to what the opposite sex thinks, you can see - they have many varied opinions to this. I'd say forget what they think! If they are so narrow minded as to stop talking to you for this, I'd say forget those gals. Many may think it to be ah, silly or interesting at first but, if they know the real you they'd get over it. I have met several that are into guys wearing tights.

if your just wearing them for warmth and comfort, then i wouldnt think twice about it. just make a self depricating joke about it when youre together. this shows her you have a good sense of humour, your down to earth, and you dont mind pokinf fun at yourself. it also shows that your comfortable and confident with your sexuality. if she doesnt appreciate this or it freaks her out then shes probably not worth the effort, girls who only want big macho men are usually insecure anr immature. if your doing it because it turns you on, then you shound explain it to her. lots of girls like it when their bf wears their knickers, maybe you can set up a similar arrangement with tights! if you really care what ppl think that much, you could always get long johns, theyre a bit sad, and you'd have to make a bit of a joke of them too, but at least their not womens clothes! but i say find someone who loves you AND the tights lol

i'm the same as you:
- straight and love to wear black opague tights under my jeans
yes women do find it strange
- i don't know why though!
they wear tights themselves: why can't men when they are cold!
- i'm on your side mate, men should be able to wear tights

I'd say that's an unequivocal yes. Tights are women's clothing, unless you're a (professional) dancer.

Makes you sound the other way...
The straight factor...
It's really weird, no offence. Do it at home. But it's a complete no no for out goings, and ESPECIALLY dates.

it is not fashionably acceptable for a man to wear tights, (no matter WHAT Milan says), unless of course you are a figure skater.

My guy wears for support because he is on his feet all day and his legs look hot! Why do people worry about what garments they wear?
