It is fun but i am always jealous that the women get to wear the
more
beautiful clothing and jewellery. ORdinary street clothing aint
that
much different for men and women these days but with evening or
formal

clothes, the women get all the good stuff. If i were in better
physical shape (bad back) would probly don a ball gown and tiara and
go over to

the Castro this evening, but waking with a stick in a ball gown is
just not really done, im still a bit too young to portray the
legendary

Don't laugh! i have spent 1/2 an hour looking for glasses i was already
wearing. At least with a lorgnette there would be the tortoise shell &
diamond studded ivory handle to look for ( i would not settle for
anything less than a Faberge lorgnette) . I can barely find two lens
sometimes, gawd forbid i should have to look for only one. And why cant
the remote have an 'find' button on it like the telephone does? I swear
sometimes i think me cats deliberately hide me remote.

At least one of them seems to think sleeping on it is fun. I scour me
room to find the remote, carefully, not disturbing 'serious' only to
find her on top of it🙁

p.s. and have you seen that "Tiara" that the Queen supposedly "loaned"
H.R.H "Camilla" The Duchess of Cornwall! OY. IMO it is almost
comical. And its not like the Queen could not have 'loaned' her a nice
one. After all she gave one of her best to Princess Di, as a wedding
presant.

Well, I hope they're fitted out with a silken cord. You wouldn't want
to lose them.

Of course a silken cord and diamante clasp <G>

Naturally. I would expect nothing less! :-)

Fascinating information. Quite frankly with todays fad for piercing
body
parts, I know men that adorn themselves with much more jewelry than
women.
The jewels are not as fancy as you describe but it still does the
trick...
so to speak.

I think it was Madam Ophelia who first mentioned it in this thread, the
'Peacock" effect? human men or males tend to be the more 'colorful' of
the species. And up till recently the more elaborate in their dress.

I mean really, other than a few rich Queers who make a living from it,
who looks at women's clothing? certainly not men.

I occasionally watch just enough of the new 'reality' t.v. show about
new & aspiring high fashion models to quickly turn it off, quickly, with
haste and abruptly as i find it embarrassing that females would go to
such lengths to be made to look so, IMO, ridiculous.

That one 'spokes model' that seems to be the host of the show looks like
she just escaped from a star trek movie, IMO. Just plain weird.

But i am no judge of female beauty, as you all may have guessed by now.
At least in the "Tantric" sense. Primaly, and instinctually, "i get no
kick from champagne....mere alcohol does not thrill me at all...."
