And despite some discomfort as a beginner in girdles, when you get to my stage you actually look forward to the support after you climb out of bed in then morning, wash and then get your girdle up around you – what a relief, what a blessed relief, and instant transformation too. Wearing a vintage girdle is not torture as it may have been in the past; it can be beautiful, sexy and with today’s modern fabrics, comfortable to wear. It is a fabulous blending of function and fashion – designed to give you a true ‘hour-glass’ shape like the stunning figure of Marilyn Monroe, who was not skinny by any means. Vintage Girdles for Men They were so different! Not rough or clingy like what I wore, but the smoothest, silkiest feeling, like I was wrapped in softness. Good, now that’s like my good little brother. But there is also one other thing I want you to do.” She said. It all started innocently enough. I never meant to do it, it just sort of happened. I got home from school, when I was in the 10th grade. I put my bag down on my desk, and noticed that mom had left the laundry basket on my bed. This was her signal that I was supposed to put the clothes away in my drawers, and bring down any dirty clothes I had.

Then, I got the pantyhose. I had never worn them before but always wanted to wear one. This was my best chance. So, slowly I put them on. I struggled to get it on because the alignment always got wrong. With quite a bit of effort, I finally got the pantyhose on. It was an intense feeling that I had never experienced before. I completely fell in love with how it felt on my legs. Lastly, I put on my mom’s heels and my feet could fit in them. It felt amazing.

Vintage Girdles – from the 1920’s-1960’s

I started crossdressing at a young age. A movie I saw once about a boy who was dressed as a girl by his mother got me very curious about dressing up. One time, I secretly got dressed in one of my mother’s dress when I was 12 years old. I simply loved the sensation and my desire to feel & look feminine grew with time. You will have to dress up like a girl and pretend to be a girl. You will only wear girl’s stuff from now. I know you want to. So, it will be fun for you too. Males tend to have broad shoulders and narrow hips. The ideal male body is considered to have an inverted triangle shape. In contrast, the ideal female body is an hourglass shape, characterized by wide hips and a narrow waist. Retro lingerie is popular again as more and more people are feeling the benefits of it because it not only feels good – it looks great too!

The truth is that women in girdles were always held in a special type of awe, it seemed to be a posh, a swanky way to dress and it looked awesome too, for those few permitted to see it! Over the weekend, I received a comment to my Size 14? post from Darianna. I replied to her comment with another comment, but I am expanding that reply here today. I am from the Golden Age of Girdles 40s 50s 60s. I grew up in a home with my mom grandmother and aunt. There were always in either a vintage girdle or a corset everyday without question and they loved being girdled. I use to over hear them talk about being Girdle Dependent. As a man I had always wondered could I get to the point of becoming Girdle Dependent and find I love being girdled and discover the benefits that a girdle offers you. Oh yeah” I said. She dragged me on out of the house, and we got in the car. With every step I took, I noticed the panties. The silkiness against my skin. I felt so turned on! I couldn’t explain it. And now I was wearing them in public! Without anybody knowing! When we sat down and the waitress came out to serve us, all I could think of was the fact that I was wearing panties, just like her. I can tell you, there’s nobody will ever be able to pinch your bottom in this fab Playtex panty girdle. The tightness, the flattening of my belly, the hug around my bottom , the serious waistband and the cuff legs all serve to transform the figure and I must admit it’s really another way of life with an absolutely deadly figure walking around – you’ll never sit down for long in it!It can be hard to keep your balance whilst stepping in and hoisting it upwards with wiggly movements

Men have worn girdles since Victorian times, although for much of the past century it has not been seen as ‘socially acceptable’ so men who wear girdles had been ‘closeted’. Now times have changed and many males admit to wearing them for control, comfort or just because they like the feel of them. Judging by the calls we get, vintage style lingerie seems to be very popular with cross-dressers as they ‘hug’ the waist to thigh area tightly so can keep a pair of hip pads and / or padded briefs worn to enhance feminine shape firmly in place. Anyway, my foundation garments do a good job of giving me a woman's figure that currently fits in a size 14 dress... not a baggy size 14 dress, but rather a size 14 dress that clings and shows off my curves.s and 50’s women were rarely born with the pin-up figure depicted – not only from stars of the silver screen & TV, but in ‘average’ daily life of the times – the coveted hour-glass shape was made – with bullet bras and girdles.

Reply to comment There is something addictive about a really firm girdle and many women who have worn them for years become girdle dependent, enjoying the confinement, the tightness, support and control that they offer.

I don’t know what got over me. I am really sorry Jody. I promise.. I will never do this again.” I answered, almost about to cry. Too bad. I had a couple of outfits now. I loved the one yellow floral dress, because it was such a soft material, and when I whirled around, it would swish against the pantyhose, and send shivers up and down my spine. I just loved it! It turned me on so much! But one day, even in full dress, it didn’t seem like enough. I wanted more! Nobody was home, so for the first time, I left my room dressed as a girl. I was *so* afraid that someone would look in the windows and see me!
