Getting New Stuff Without Parents Knowing?


Guest Emily H

Recommended Posts

Do you think there would ever be any way to get some new girl stuff, like a bra or a skirt from a store or something without my parents ever noticing? I don't have my own transportation, and mostly my parents would be able to tell when I made purchases, or if money suddenly disappears and they don't see anywhere it would have went?

Just asking for some suggestions because for the longest time now its been the same panties, the same bras, same skirts, dresses blah blah blah. Not that it's really bad for me, I don't dress all too often. A new bra, or maybe something completely new like a garter belt or shapewear would be nice, if possible to get without staying secret.

BTW, two questions-

-Are pantyhose supposed to tuck into anything to keep them in place?

-Are you supposed to wear socks with pantyhose? What about panties with pantyhose?

I'm not going to be able to be much help on how to get clothes without getting caught if you don't have your own transportation or money.

But as to the two questions.

1 - pantyhose are usually worn without anything to tuck them into, however some women like to wear a firm control panty so they wear it over the pantyhose and they stay in place better,

2 - The only time you would wear socks with pantyhose would be if you are wearing a pair of boots that are a bit uncomfortable without them - knee socks over pantyhose was in the late 70s.

Most women wear panties with their pantyhose and that way if you really distroy a pair on a desk or a chair, you can slip them off and still have your pnaties on. (I hope in this case that you have shaved your legs!) :D

Love ya,

As for your main question, sorry, I just don't have a good answer for that one...

As for the other two ?'s,

Pantyhose are made to stay up on their own. As long as you follow the size charts on the back, they should stay up. If you haven't shaved your legs, the hair will cause them work down the leg. Personnally, I stick with support hose, they have a bit more spandex in them so they stay up better, and I just love how they feel.

Socks with hose, not usually. The only times would be if you want to wear hose without any chance of being seen wearing them or if you are wearing them for the warmth of having them on. (I've done both.)

Panties with hose, usually. Mainly to stay, a little more "fresh" down there... ;) However, I sometimes go without panties because it too feels wonderful and there is no panty line!

Well, how did you get your old clothes?

Can you ride the bus or walk? Maybe you could go somewhere with a friend, and then tell him that you need to go get something. Then quickly pick up a few new things and some cover-up items and rejoin him.

Do you parents really check how much money you have? If they do, you can always say that you spent it on a smoothie or milkshake when you were out with your friends on some day. Or perhaps you needed something for school. It would be good if actually got one of these things so you could use it as a cover-up, and you also wouldn't be completely lying.

Even though I did mention lying, the best way to go is to really not lie. If you get caught you'll get in more trouble, or have more problems, than if you would have just told the truth.

I got my old clothes, mostly just undergarments, from outgoing good will boxes, and I just put on my mom's clothes. I'm a little lucky and unlucky- she is kinda smaller than me, but has a little bit of extra body mass, so her clothes fit me relatively okay, but she only has a handful of really feminine stuff. Well, two handfuls I suppose.

Thanks for the advice everyone, and the info with the pantyhose. It will help me, thank you all.

Dear Some Guy,

I don't know what your circumstances are, but I would suggest that you use whatever mechanism you used to get your current set of girls clothing. I am not in your situation, but I simply buy my own clothes online or at a department store.

As far as your questions...

1. Pantyhose do not tuck. To get them to stay up, make sure that you gently pull them up (so as to not tear them) when you are putting them on working your way from the toes, up the leg, and finally around your waist. You want to hold each leg of your hose scrunched all the way to the toe part of the hose. Gently, place your foot into the hose leg and hold the hose so that it stays tight as you pull them up over your foot and leg. Do the same for the other leg.

2. I do not recommend wearing socks with panty hose (kind of defeats the purpose of hosery). I strongly reccommend wearing panties with pantyhose (gets really uncomfortable otherwise. At least for me anyway).

I hope this helps,

bernie

Goodwill, Salvation Army, or any other thrift store is a good place to get clothing for cheap. They usually have a pretty good selection of ladies garments and shoe, as well as other accessories. That was how I got most of my clothes and such when I was younger. Also, most of the people who work at these places won't look at you all weird because you are a boy buying girls clothes.

Hope this helps,

Jenn

      Tension is not a well-understood psychological state. It can be both positive and negative, much like stress itself. A 2015 research paper on the theoretical framework of tension notes it's an anticipatory emotional state which tends to be associated with: conflict.

      I'd love to have a dinner party with Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Voltaire, and Ayn Rand.  Would definitely be an interesting time.

      In the forward I learn that transgenderism is bad, and somewhere else that transgender ideology is bad.  I have not yet read a definition of either in the document.  I assume they are the same.  I know Focus on a Family has a definition of transgenderism on their website, or did, but I am not sure this is the same as that.  I might agree that transgenderism is bad if they use a definition I condemn (e.g. transgenderism means you always pour ketchup in your shoes before you put them on - I could not agree to that).  Is someone who believes in transgenderism, whatever it is, a transgenderist? I never see that term.  There may be other definitions out there, but I don't think there is an Official Definition that we all agree to.

      Crazy fact, was gonna go to the school where this went down at before I moved, have a lot of friends there. I know at least one of my friends met the guy on one occasion, not knowing who it was.

      They are thinking of Loudon.  The problem there was the girls were not protected from a known predator, who was moved from one school to another instead being effectively disciplined.  Outlaw school administrators? <sarc>

      How ironic.  I agree with the governor "“You cannot change your gender; you cannot pick your gender…there is a confused group of people that somehow think you can,”    - we are what we are, we are fighting the fact we CANNOT change our gender, which we did not pick.  Many if not all of us would not have picked a trans condition and have sought to evade, deny or move out or resolve it anyway we can.  Those who are confused on this issue are not trans folk.  They want us to change our gender but they deny we can.  Confusion.

      @FinnyFinsterHH no one can satisfy your questions about what will the future hold. But I can advise you to slow your mind down as much as you're able. Take it slow and one moment at a time. This advice goes beyond the practical reality that that's truly all you can do - further, try to enjoy each moment. It's clear you have a lot of aspirations regarding transition. But it's best to try to accept the bounds of your life circumstances at present because if you develop worries or even resentments about them, that will only make you bitter and more anxious. Instead, try to focus on anything you find affirming. Practice positive self-talk and give yourself affirmations too. Try to let go of expectations of your family members - they can only deal with change to the capacity they're able due to their own life conditions. Allow them grace as you wish they would allow you. Practice patience.   Try this exercise - read through your post and make one list of the positive developments and another of things you cannot control (including the future). If you have a sense of spirituality, offer the second list as a sacrifice to however you understand a higher power - leave it in their hands. If you're not spiritual, then offer it up to hope. Then throw that list away. Keep the list of positives and leave some room on it because guaranteed you'll have more and more to add. Look forward to that, but don't let your mind think it can rush things. Try to enjoy the ride.
