My legs

Post by JoJo »

Hello everyone, i hope i'm posting this in the right place. I apologise in advance if i am.

I was trying on some bits and pieces yesterday and noticed that i seem to of developed rather muscled legs recently (been doing a lot of running). Was wandering if anyones got any tips on how to make this look less obvious asides from wearing baggy clothing. Perhaps someone has some tricks they could share.

Thanks for taking the time to read this,
Jojo

I think Carol Ann has it right. It's odd, but women seem to think well-defined legs of the sort most men have are the feminine ideal. Go figure. If they're smooth, you take good care of them, and lengthen them with a little heel I don't think you'll find well-defined musculature to be too much of a problem (unless you hate having women comment on how much they wish they had your legs!)

Honey, as a "former" world champion powerlifter, squatting over 550 pounds, when I shaved my legs, put on my hose and my mini and went out, I always got compliments on my legs.

If you have long, shapely legs as our sisters have said, show them off!!!

JoJo, we don't often think of it, but socks and ph tend to make the legs look better.

I am remindred of a commercial from years ago done by Joe Namoth (I think). In it he weas wearing ph and said if these make my legs look good, think what they will do for yours.

His legs did look good in the commercial.

Stockings tend to smooth things out and just make the legs look good. So show them off.

My leggs --- the start of this thread ---

just got de-haired. I thought about just letting the hair go for the Summer, but nobody gives a rip if you have hair on your leggs or not!

Sure, hairless leggs look much better in stocking / pantyhose than hairy leggs. But its not only that, they feel much better in stockings or pantyhose or simply bare.

I just wish the heck there was an inexpensive way to have all the hair below my neck removed once and for all. Then the same for my facial hair. Who needs it?

But hey! My leggs - are bare - for now.

As a person who both has bare legs and is a chronic shorts wearer when in drab let me give you my experience.

People do not in general look at men's legs, I have shaved my legs for over 40 years and worn shorts at least as long. It is a non issue

When Susan is out, sure, my legs get plenty of looks, I have been told they look nice and I have been known to wear short skirts on occasion. High heels work wonders for legs.

All in all - simply relax and enjoy the feeling

I completely agree and tights (PH) hide all the blemishes as well

If you are not opposed to stockings dear, I recommend thigh highs that are not too sheer. Work for me!
