I have a close male friend who is gay. He often borrows my tops but lately wants to borrow skirts and now my shoes.
I don't mind cos he has a fem figure, ive even done his makeup for him! Now he wants me to take him shopping dressed as a girl!
Thing is that i'm worried about other peoples reactions to this! Even tho sometimes he does almost look convincing, sometimes he even dresses sexier than me... i hate that!!

If you take him shopping dressed as a girl he can buy his own clothes & stop borrowing yours. Maybe he'll even let you borrow some of his things if you ask, you did lend him your clothes, so fair is fair. If you hate that he dresses sexier than you, ask him to dress you sexy too & enjoy your new girlfriend.

This is really an age old question, and a stereotype that has become so ingrained into our "culture" that it'll take a serious shoehorn to pry it out. Through the years, women have been taking over "men's fashions" and making it their own - relegating those pieces to being "taboo" to the guys. From the male side, it's really an uphill battle to have "male equality" in the fashion world, because it's such a female-dominated topic. It all boils down to how YOU want to look. Are you happy with how you see yourself, and are you comfortable? If so, then that is all that matters. Granted a lot of clothes are cut differently to accentuate the typical "female figure", but if you can wear them well, then there is no shame in making them your own. There is so much stereotypical bashing going about (even here), that it may never be heard clearly, but those people need to realize that tastes are changing, and it's time to change with them.

I'd go along with it. He's your friend... you might even have a really good time. You shouldn't really care about what other people think, they might really get a kick out of it though. The ones who would be disgusted are uptight anyway... you dress up too and go as a "couple". I love doing things like this every once in awhile. I have a really strange group of friends and I love them all, not everyone has an opportunity to have a drag queen for a "girl friend" you are luckier than most. Go and have fun! And hey, if he looks good... I personally like the emo guys that wear womens' pants

It seems to me that you are worried at the reaction, and whether either yourself or your friend can take the possible verbal abuse, theres no way of knowing, let him dress in what ever he wants, and you go along with him, holding your head up high, because you are being a real friend.

BTW one of the greatest comedians ever - Eddie Izzard - is a well known transvestite, as a straight guy, it really doesn't bother me.

i think as long as he treats u like a good guy should then it would be ok. but he should pick out his own clothes and stop borrowing yours and if u want to at times go ahead and give in to the interests

Who cares what a few childish, uptight homophobes think? None of my gay friends do drag, but so what if they did?
Besides--I buy men's shirts all the time and wear them as "big shirts." Nothing wrong with that.

I would really like to know that, why is it that a group of people that spend a lot of time detesting or disliking women and really do not want anything to do with them as far is a mate goes. Seem to spend hours and dollars looking like them. It baffles me !

No. It's wrong! I was at disney world 1 weekend and this man was wearing shorter shorts than his wife! They looked like Daisy Duke shorts!

It's not illegal for a man to dress in woman's clothes. If he likes it and looks good- let him! It's not like he's gonna be your competition, after all any straight guy will not be interested in a crossdresser anyways.

I've heard of guys trying to get into a girl's knickers, but that's going too far !
