Greetings dear readers. I hope you had an excellent Christmas and that you found some pretty things under the tree. Today I’d like to share some thoughts about underdressing. Most likely, you and I are in the same boat. I can’t really wear outerwear beyond the privacy of my own home. Perhaps some of you can pass and outerwear is an option. If so, good for you! Frankly, I am a very long way from passing and, living in a very conservative part of the country, I’d have to have a death wish to even try.
All that being said, we can still connect with the inner femme by underdressing. There are so many wonderful options – panties, bras, camisoles, garters with stockings. Ah, such fun. By the by, I didn’t include pantyhose. If you can wear them, more power to you. I tried it a couple of times, but by the end of the day, I felt like I had been cut in half and neutered. Not a nice feeling.
Do you underdress for work? I have found that underdressing under my power suit has greatly reduced the stress of my job. I like sitting in a meeting with all the other power suits and feeling the caress of my bra and thinking, “If only you knew.” If you have to put on your binary male face at work, that makes it even more fun.
There is nothing more comfy than feeling the slinky smoothness of a camisole under a dress shirt. If you are more of a blue collar worker, a cami may not be the best idea, but you can certainly enjoy some nice satin panties. I had an internet friend who unintentionally outed himself at work. He works on a high voltage power crew. He was wearing a thong. His tee shirt was untucked and he was bending over working on something and his whale tale was exposed. Busted! A coworker pulled him aside and said “You’d better pull your pants up.” The coworker fortunately was cool with it and made no further comments.
So much for work. What about in your leisure time? What do you like to wear under it all when you go to the mall or grocery store? In moderate weather, I enjoy wearing a garter belt and hose under my jeans. I only wear women’s jeans, and if you haven’t tried them, you really must. They are far more comfy than those heavy, scratchy men’s jeans. The denim is thick enough that the garter tabs don’t show.
How about when you go to the doctor? I’ve chatted with some folks online who wear panties to their doctor’s visit and the doctor is fine with it. Is yours? Mine absolutely would not be fine with it. Funny story: a couple of years ago I was getting dressed and felt something sticking the sole of my right foot. I lifted my foot, only to discover I was standing on a wasp. That hurt like a bad dog. I’m allergic to wasps, so my wife packed me in to the car and off to my doctor’s office we went. I had on lacy pink panties and didn’t even give it a thought. We got there and the doc examined my foot. He told me to stand up and drop my drawers so he could give me a steroid injection in my hip. My wife and I looked at each other like a couple of deer in the headlights. Fortunately, the doc had his back to me as he prepared the syringe. I pulled my pants down while concealing my panties well beneath them. In retrospect it is really funny - especially the look of panic my wife and I gave each other. Ah, the challenges of being a cross dresser!
Just for fun, I looked up the Latin translation of “If only you knew” and it is “Si modo iam nosceres”. What do you think – could we form a sorority with the motto “Si modo iam nosceres”? Heck we could even have tee shirts with our motto emblazoned on the front. It could be our secret handshake when we encounter each other at the mall.
So much for my ramblings. I’d love for you to share your thoughts and experiences in the wonderful world of underdressing. Get that keyboard warmed up – I’m waiting to hear from you!
Fond regards,
Angie

Stevie, you stated, “these are our clothes, our lingerie ,and we have a right to wear them” meaning the wonderful lingerie of Xdress. I love the way you put that. Yes, these are OUR clothes, made especially for the male physique. What others may think doesn’t really matter, because no one’s going to see them. I think that’s half the rush when dressed properly in a male power suit. I like looking all alpha on the outside, while I’m all Angie underneath it all. Matt S, you put it well, as far as the calming effect your danties can have even when in a stressful environment. Welcome to our little club, Matt S.

“Si modo iam nosceres” – I can dig it!
Also Angie, “Thank goodness for sites like Xdress where we can discover we aren’t just some isolated weirdo” – aaaaaaaaabsolutely yes.
I work in construction management, I’m a pretty big guy. Fit, just 6-1/2’ tall. I absolutely love the juxtaposition of under dressing some nice satin and lace stuff under the flannel and jeans. No one would suspect a thing. On super cold days I happily bust out some comfy leggings too.
Keep up the good work! Love these products and I own a bunch, dig the blog posts too this is just the first one I’ve replied to.
Matt S,
I think there is something special about the powerful Alpha male dressed in lacy undergarments. Its erotic, hot, tingling, yes.
I have a similar situation and on many occasions I’ve gotten a lot of stress relief remembering what I have on
I will never pass I have a beard but I love my femme clothes underneath and outerwear (jeans, sweaters, etc)
Xdress provides men’s lingerie which gives me even more confidence wearing “men’s clothes” because these are our clothes, our lingerie ,and we have a right to wear them

Underdressing. I am in love with that term.
I am a 45 year old male, but am so far at the back of the closet about my under garment love it would take days to find me. My wife of 20 years has no clue. I tried once, years ago. It really didn’t work. Either she didn’t understand exactly or refused to let it go any further.
Unfortunately, I’ve been secretly dressing in private for years. Mainly while I was traveling for work. I had a pair here, pair there hidden.
A few years ago, for a promotion, I had to spend 2 months out of state for training, so I live in a corporate apartment. I took the opportunity to explore my Under Dressing full time under everything. I was able to finally try on bras from here that I had always been curious about. I was hooked.
I grew my collection and my tastes.
I was confident and happy everyday, wearing what ever I wanted to under my work clothes.
Then, it came time to go home.
I packed everything up. Hid it away in a safe place, and went back to my old boring men’s briefs.(well, as close to exciting as I could get without setting her off).
After realizing that I needed to release some stress and figure out what makes me happy, I found a way to Under Dress again almost daily!
I joined a Gym near a Storage place, so before I go work out every morning, I swing by my storage and get my undergarments for the day. Go work out, freshen up, put on my dainty things, and go to work running an entire Billion Dollar a year company. No one knows, and I’m almost always in a good mood. I can be in a board meeting and start to get frustrated, then, I act like I’m reaching for my pen or phone in my suit jacket, only to brush the delicate lace on my bra, or feel the satin slip across my nip, and my mood instantly changes. The same if I’m wearing an incredibly sexy thong or frilly panty. A slight movement, and I’m reminded that I am in total control, yet pampered at the same time.
It’s a rush. And I love it.
Oh, and don’t get me started about the wonderful nighties and matching panty sets from XDress while I’ve traveling. I sleep so great when in a strange hotel bed but comforted in my coral Jersey Henley Nightiey with Matching Panty.
Or my Cherry Blossom set, and on and on…I get a kick out of seeing that TSA inspection card when I unpack my checked luggage and wonder what went thru their minds when they searched my bag.
Dear all,
I love all these comments! As you can see, we are far from alone. I often wonder while walking through the mall how many men are wearing panties and/or bra. Thank goodness for sites like Xdress where we can discover we aren’t just some isolated weirdo. A note to Larry – you asked about bra sizing. Just Google “bra sizing” and you’ll get all the instruction you need. You’ll likely find that with a B cup and a man’s band size (that’s the measurement under your breasts) that it’s hard to find women’s bras that fit. You might want to start with the bras from Xdress. I’m particularly partial to the satin bras.
Glad you all liked my idea of the Latin phrase. Don’t things always sound more dignified in Latin? Thank you all for the great responses. Keep that keyboard warmed up – I want to hear more!
Fond regards,
Angie
