Garter Belt Or Pantyhose

[Guest Vieja]

Hi all As an old person I started my cross dressing long before there was such a thing as pantyhose. I came to love the beautiful garter belts that I bought and the nylon stockings they supported. I tried pantyhose but never really liked them. I learned that while I was hooked on garter belts it was a good idea to make sure they were a good snug fit or they could slip over your hips and pull your panties down. It happened to me once at a mall parking lot as I walked from my car the belt slipped and I must have been a comical sight hot footing it back to the car while hanging on to my butt.

I like both. Usually I'll wear pantyhose, opaques, black or brown(-ish) though some days I prefer stockings, suspenders and either hooked off to a pantie corselette or corset. That way they don't slip, unless the hooks slip out of the corset loops but so far have only lost one at a time, so have never lost the stocking down my leg, yet!

I too started out CDing using garter belt or a girdle with stockings. Your right that a garter belt needs to fit correctly or you will have a problem. I have both garter belts and a Open Bottom Girdle with garters on it. I prefer one with at least 6 garters (3 on each side) over the ones that only have 4. IMHO, these are more for show in the bedroom than for use while out. I have seen garter belts with as many as 16 garters (8 on each side). A little over kill but your stockings will never fall down. LOL

Hi JoAnn, and Petra I have been out of touch for a while or I would have checked in sooner. I only have one garter belt at the moment (Sadly I outgrew two others) and it only has four garters. I didn't know that they came with more than four garters. Thanks for your input.

I prefer panty hose but occassionaly I wear thigh highs.

[Guest AnneMarie]

Definitely tights for me, really are my favourite item of clothing when dressing up

[Guest markie v]

Garter belt, it is just so sexy looking.

[Guest Kristi]

i prefer stay ups

[Guest Priscilla]

Garter belt (taht is, suspenders as they are called in the UK) for me. Never liked pantyhose, nor stay-ups as they tend to roll down.

[Guest Priscilla]

I prefer garter belt (suspenders, as they are called over here in the UK). They make me feel more feminine.

Love Pantyhose

[Sally]

I love pantyhose, but at my current weight stockings are easier to put on. I like the feel of the continuos ssilky fabric from my toes to my waist - it makes me feel feminine and I have never cared that much for tight waist bands. I don't have much of a 'behind' yet - I haven't started on my hormones so I have to have a pretty tight garter belt to keep it from sliding off. Pantyhose give me that wonderful feeling of freedom that a dress does.

If I had the figure for it and was even 10 years younger, I'd love to go out in a body stocking with a skirt - talk about feeling feminine!

garter belt will be my choice!

[Guest mia 1]

Started out with mom's girdle and stockings. Evolved with the current rends of panty hose. By far my favorite ones are L'eggs summer weight nude! Oh the thought of them alone make me a heany breather..WOW! Mia1

I answered this on another T G forum but I'll answer it here as well. I generally wear "Support" panty hose simply because of the fact that i suffer from severe Arthritis in the knees. Now it wasn't that long ago that I could actually buy Support stockings either . Yes they were to me great as they outlasted the panty hose due to their re-reinforced heels and toes . I also think that they gave a better support to my legs also. Then to, if you ran one thats all you did , one stocking. With panty hose you ruin a pair ! Also , I wear a lot of tights in the winter too. I look for the "shaper tights for the same reason ".

I have a couple of pairs of the old fashion garter stockings that I found months ago in a thrift store . I will wear them with a panty girdle just the same way we did in the late fifties and early sixties . Garter belts are , well, they're for the time when you're going to have them off sooner rather than later. I mean an encounter with you're other partner girls ! Yes , they are nice but I really prefer the feel of a long leg Girdle or Panty hose . Ellen Shaver

[Guest Krystyna_Marie]

I bought my first garter belt/stocking set earlier in december - I love the garter belt. Oh my God is it just sexy as all get out!!

Hmm . . . I need to post a pic or two . . .

Kisses, KM

[Guest Ashlee]

I love them all, pantyhose, tights, stockings and thigh highs. If I could, I would wear them 24/7!

[Guest cdKate]

Garter belts and stockings have always been my weakness. They are sooo sexy. I recently picked up a maidenform long length bra that snapped at the crotch - Not sure what it is called. I cut the lower section off and added four garters and it is sexy as every and gives a little tummy support.

I only have pantyhose, one day, some item in the distant future, might get garter belt and have stockings. But pantyhose feel really great, very feminine.

[Guest ~Brenda~]

Hey Vieja,

I prefer pantyhose, but I will say this... for me, pantyhose, garters, kneehigh nylons, feel good at first, but after about 8 or so hours of wearing them, my legs start to say to me... enough! get these things off of me. It is ironic, pantyhose first on... my legs feel great, they are purring. Hours later... pantyhose off... my legs feel great, they are purring once again! I can sympathise with things falling down at very in-opportune times

LOL

[Guest jaymie]

I started out wearing my mom's pantyhose years ago and still enjoy wearing pantyhose.... but I really love thigh high nylons with some lace trim at the top...so sexy! I love garters too....they just make you feel so pretty and feminine.

[Guest leo]

all this leg talking makes me happy!

[Guest cynthia]

Garterbelts and stockings are a lot sexier, but they are just too much trouble for everyday wear. For daily wear I prefer pantyhose or opaque tights, because I can just pull them on and go.

Hi Everyone,

It has been quite a while since I have been able to check into the Playground. It looks to me as though it is getting a lot more traffic than it was back in August. I am please to see that it is not only us older folks that like garter belts. The ones that I have are getting shabby from washing so it is time for me to go shopping and I love the thought.
