Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Georgiansilver Date: 14 Jul 06 - 07:55 PM Bit like asking if a man likes a woman with fat legs or thin legs....I like possibly many others like something in between. |

Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Liz the Squeak Date: 04 Jul 06 - 06:06 PM I used to wear stockings... they were a bit cheaper and easier to replace a leg when you got a ladder. Trouble is, in summer, when the tops of your legs got sweaty, you'd get chaps. LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: open mike Date: 04 Jul 06 - 05:42 PM i just remembered that in girl scouts we used to wear things around our socks with elastic and small ribbon-like flaps.. i think these look like what i have seen worn with kilts..called garters and flashes i found lots of pix online, but none showed close up of thes being modelled. one of these fellows has them on, though. http://www.cuillinn.com/ |

Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Charmion Date: 04 Jul 06 - 03:02 PM Garg, that post from you answers every one of the myriad questions that has fluttered about you from the time I first began reading this forum. Thank you for that. |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: GUEST,.gargoyle Date: 04 Jul 06 - 02:45 PM BOTH
Suspenders (only button ones) for the trousers.
Shirt - Garters (metal clasp) One attaches to each of the four shirt-tails and two attach to each of your stockings.
Spend a fourteen hour day and you will still look keen, trousers-UP, stockings-UP, shirt-tail-IN.
Sincerely, |

Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Divis Sweeney Date: 04 Jul 06 - 12:39 PM Valid point jacqui.c. Do you ever notice if a group of women go out together, for example if one of them is getting married, it's the married ones among them that go wild. The reply is, well they need to let their hair down and the male stripper was just a bit of fun. On the other hand when a group of men go out together, it's dirty old bastards out eyeing up young women ! I worked in a bar every summer for three years when I was a student, saw it all. Someone once asked why there isn't a viagra for women, there is it's called Bacardi. |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: GUEST Date: 04 Jul 06 - 12:27 PM Who cares? |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: jacqui.c Date: 04 Jul 06 - 12:24 PM Now there's the difference between the sexes. I wonder how many women would look at 'one for the ladies' and find it sexy? I just want to shout "cover it up!" |

Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Divis Sweeney Date: 04 Jul 06 - 12:13 PM Christ I am seeing a different side to some members here ! I myself am also a cross dresser. I get very cross when I find the socks I've on don't match. Don't like the stay ups much. Nothing beats the real silk. Right this dirty old man is away for a cold shower. |

Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: GUEST,Desdemona Date: 04 Jul 06 - 12:08 PM Ah, yet another example of two great nations dividede by a common language! In the UK, "suspenders" hold up stockings, and "braces" hold up trousers. In the US, "suspenders" hold up pants, which in the UK are what a lady wears in addition to stockings and suspenders [that is, if she *is* a lady...], while a "garter belt" is used to hold up stockings; "braces" go on the teeth of adolescent children to make them straight. "And so 'tis as clear as the summer sun..."! ~D |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: artbrooks Date: 04 Jul 06 - 12:04 PM I haven't really experimented, but I expect that the one old pair of suspenders I have wouldn't stretch from my shoulders to my socks...and, if I tried it would probably snap back and put out my eye. So, I'll stick with a belt, thanks. I rarely wear socks in the summer anyway. |

Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: skipy Date: 04 Jul 06 - 11:30 AM Don't mind which I wear. Did you know that the top folded over part of a stocking is called "the giggle band" get past that and you are laughing! Skipy |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: open mike Date: 04 Jul 06 - 11:26 AM as far as i know, suspenders are those things that go over your shoulders to hold up your pants...shouldn't it be "belts or suspenders"? is this like the previous thread about wearing socks with sandals? |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Divis Sweeney Date: 04 Jul 06 - 11:15 AM Definitely a suspender man myself. Hate tights when you wake up in the morning and meet the wife coming out of the bathroom all I can think about is the Brinks Mat robbery. |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Sooz Date: 04 Jul 06 - 11:08 AM Obviously you weren't wearing them Greg! Winter was hell. Great minds thought alike and cross posted Jacqui! |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: alanabit Date: 04 Jul 06 - 11:06 AM This is not good for me. I am off for a cold shower... |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: greg stephens Date: 04 Jul 06 - 11:02 AM Actually, I have to disagree with Sooz. That was a short and glorious period in history, when the miniskirt had arrived, but stockings and suspenders were still in use. The lads used to hang around at traffic lights and cross roads, looking at girls on bikes. |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: Sooz Date: 04 Jul 06 - 10:50 AM Hang on - (ouch) - suspenders without stockings would be a waste of time, stockings without suspenders would be round my ankles. Are you asking stockings with suspenders or tights. If so, I'm with Giok. I'm old enough to remember that mini skirts came in before stockings and suspenders went out and it was not comfortable or pretty! |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: jacqui.c Date: 04 Jul 06 - 10:50 AM GUEST,Martin I can tell you from experience that if you are wearing stockings you need suspenders to hold them up - that is unless you have the relatively recent ones that hold themselves up, leave unsightly marks on your upper thighs and probably don't do much for your circulation either. Do you mean tights or suspenders? Enquiring minds need to know. |
Subject: RE: BS: Stockings or Suspenders ? From: John MacKenzie Date: 04 Jul 06 - 10:41 AM I find the suspenders hurt my legs when I sit down. G |
