Garter belts, thigh highs or panty hose?

I love wearing stockings! I have garters thigh highs and panty hose. My question is what is everyone's fave? Personally I perfer garters or thigh highs over panty hose even though garters can be a pain to fasten. But garters feel so wonderful! Thigh highs don't seem to last as long they tend to keep slipping off but I love them anyway. Panty hose are probably more practical I just don't like them as well for some reason. What do you think?

Well, another Jody expose'. Giggle. Love garter belts, haven't had one in years. Really! I'm not lying... But, I do have a nice pair of old time stockings I'm saving. One day maybe, one day...

Thigh Highs are such a huge weakness for me. Ding! They go with everything and all occasions, well maybe not a swim suit. Giggle.

I once saw something called Big O pantyhose. Wow, I would be a liar, if I said I never fanisized about them. But, after being on HRT for so long, my whole being has changed. Now it is more like, "Please Sir, don't stand behind me like that."... Well there are a few, I might like to sit in their lap unexpectedly, run my fingers through their hair, with a quick kiss to drive them crazy. Well??? It's just for fun with our clothes on. Oh and yes, I would then run like hell. LOL!

Gee, I never thought about another trans girl wearing them??? Well, yes I have. Oops, my mental G rating just took a jump, so I will quit here, while I can...

Hug. JodyAnn

I prefer thigh highs or just knee length stockings. It was a warmth thing this winter. Garter belts are sexy for sure but a pain to rig when you can just pull your stockings up. Sure they may drop a bit but if it is under who cares. They pull back up in a second.

Now no stockings please. Its warming up and bare toes are too nice to encase.

Hugs,

For every day wear, lol, I prefer none of the above.

If it's for something seductive to wear for your partner, definitely thigh highs with a garter belt.

Knee highs are great for when you dont want all the hassel, BUT their is nothing more feminine to me than a garter belt and stockings. This is the preferred items of Amber L. I dont even own a pair of panty hose, way to much trouble in my book. Thigh Highs are my seconf choice. Hugs Amber L.

I prefer pantyhose, they are simple to use for me, and I have a perfect excuse for buying them, they have tons of craft uses. Homemade silk screen painting for instance.

Not so much doing Hose or stockings/thigh highs. I like the look though. I am a sucker for tights in textures and patterns, argyle prints being one of my favorite. When I do simple hose, they have to be 20D Satin opaque from Dim. They smell really pretty new from the packet. Have the perfect shine and even color and last for a loooooong time. I treat all my hose and tights like new born babies and always buy my favs in multiples just incase a pair does get a snag, run/ladder. The best tights hands down are my Trasparenze Hungary tights. They are such a unique argyle style. I sooooo can not wait until fall to pair them with a gorgeous pair of boots.

Love the thigh highs so far, the pantyhose just feels a little awkward with all that extra stuff down there :(

Defiantly a hose and garters girl, probably something to do with my age. I currently have to wear compression hose @ $100.00 a pair. The next pair I get will be women's they are really nice and sheer.

I stopped wearing panyhose during the hot wheather, but I miss the feel of them. I started to wear thigh high stay ups and now that I wax my legs I don't find them uncomfortable at all. They are not as hot as the pantyhose and I get that great feeling on my legs.

cheers

My preference. Knee highs striped to go with the skirt I wear.

Stockings if I am forced.

Garter belt for sexy lovins time.

The rest of the time? Like lizzy, nuffin.

I simply love the look of a garter belt and stockings, I think its so sexy and feminine. However, when I tried putting one on I had such a hard time I thought I was doing something wrong. Finally, I gave up and never tried to venture that way again. Now that I know that they are just hard to put on I will purchase more; got rid of my last ones during my last purge. I do enjoy wearing pantyhose just for the feel of them on my legs. Usually during the winter though I find myself wearing more tights than anything. Since I am out to a lot of people at my job I will have the freedom to wear more shear pantyhose this winter.

I only wear stockings and garter belts and of course a thong, sure dressing like this takes a little longer but, the feeling of being sensual and sexy goes hand in hand with my femininity.

I mostly wear short tight skirts so I have to make sure I get the extra long black stockings with the seams.

I own several fancy garter belts, and I love them, they are great for those "special" occasions when I want to get a point across (my SO likes them a lot, but I'm pretty sure she only owns two I bought for her and she never wore) For the most part I use high-thigh stockings with stay-up silicone bands. They have to be pulled up a couple times in the course of a day, but they are so much more comfortable than panty hose. I find pantyhose are too warm and considerably less convenient in the ladies' room too.

Be well and take care!

Vintage flat knit stockings with a garter belt are sheer Heaven for me :) altho it is support pantyhose that I wear everyday, I never cared much for knee high or thigh high stay up's. I consider them to be cheaters

Stockings may be sexier but panty hose for me - in lots of different colours - ideal for quick change of outfit.

Now winter is coming just got some fleece lined - very soft and comfy - could fall in love with them :)

I'm all dressed up today and running an open studio tour. It is brisk with a breeze but warm in the sun. Thigh highs were the days choice. A nice thick black pair that makes me feel cute but also warm. Each day is different this time of year and it seems my choice of hose changes daily. Socks for farm work, bare feet and sandals for afternoon shopping as changeable as the fall weather in NJ. I never had these decisions to make as a guy. I like them now and it seems to come naturally.

Hugs,

Charlie

I have yet to wear anything but pantyhose. Now that I'm wearing them to work, they're becoming a bother. One thing that gets me is the extra time sorting everything out after using the restroom. Another is that I still have to use cotton undies for post-op comfort. The pantyhose just don't breathe well enough. I only wear dresses to work a couple days out of the week - and can wear knee-highs the rest of the time,

At least around here, however, pantyhose are half the price or less of stockings. On my budget, I'm sticking with the pantyhose for now...

Love, Megan

It is tights for me everytime. I have been wearing tights since I was twelve. I have rarely worn a pair of tights that I haven't felt comfortable in. Last year I bought two pairs of hold up stockings by mistake. I didn't feel like returning them so I wore them. They were ok for about half an hour but they soon started to sag. I took them off and soon returned to my beloved tights. I would not mind trying stockings and suspenders for a change, but I am afraid of ruining them when putting them on. I would not mind wearing a pair of seamed stockings I have always hankered to look like a Woman in a forties movie.

      Welcome @Vivelacors!  For myself and many others here it is a similar theme.  But, I can assure it's never too late.  I hope that you will discover that as you explore and connect with more of us on the Forum.    You've already taken the most important first step ... Self-Affirmation.  I am wishing you the best in continuing this process. Deep breaths ... One step at a time

      I can remember as a teenager being a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints and living in the bible belt. It was always a little hard-I think religion is just tricky anyway.    I was referred to a couple of ladies at church by my mum who gave me very good advice.  One has known those who are are trans- and how they approched it.    The other has two people in their life who identify differently. They also gave other ideas to assist me.     I do like ideas though.

      If I am leaving the house I will almost always do makeup.  Not over-the-top but enough to feminize my face (eye shadow, mascara), lipstick, and a light cover of a concealer and foundation. I found my favorite lipsticks are Maybelline.  But the concealer/foundation I 'discovered' in Neutrogena Hydro Boost - Hyaluronic Acid based.  For 'older' gals like me I find it moisturizes and doesn't dry into those annoying fine lines (I have enough of those already).    Hopefully, after facial hair removal I might not feel the need as much.

      Actually the bill seems to be so thoroughly confusing that I doubt that enforcement is even possible.  It could however incite vigilante style actions.  A false accusation against a "looks challenged" Cis woman is very likely to happen early on.  So what will happen in the case of those situations?  I have a script in mind over the sad average looking daughter of one of the legislators getting tangled into one of those situations.  I don't know whether it would be a comedy or a tragedy at the minute.

      I don't know yet. I'm sure there is going to be a big crowd. I also would have to keep up with the kids and probably won't enjoy myself mostly. 
    • Ashley0616
      I can understand that. My Keurig is used for hot water mostly and when my mom comes. I mostly use a regular coffee maker. I have had that for 5 years now. I had a Bunn but it didn't last long. I also have a French press and rarely use that. I would love to get a cappuccino maker but that is for later on. Starbucks is getting expensive. My kids favorite thing there is the cake pops. I found out that Walmart Neighborhood Market has them. Typical me getting off topic. lol

      After many years in denial, I have finally acknowledged my femininity. After quite a long life, so much time has been wasted. Now I feel I am too old to enjoy the freedom I now feel. All I can contribute to those who need to embrace their true gender, be BRAVE and don,t waste time!

      Wow what a busy day today.  Clearly the summer crowd is coming into town.  Doesn’t hurt that we have a PGA event here.  It is limited to 100 players. But the spectators is where the crowd is.   i alone more than doubled my usual sales.     we keep hearing thunderstorms however they are staying just west of us for now. The storms in western Tennessee right now are supposed to be here in the morning.
