Is it normal to think men should wear skirts/dresses and do most of the housework

My husband lost his job a couple of years ago, he was out of work about 5 months. I was lucky enough to get extra hours to get us through this hard time with money. I went from doing 20 hours a week to 40+, but it meant he had to take on the housework, cooking and stuff all things I had always done. He was not happy to start with and did a rubbish job of it all, but after a few weeks he starts saying how easy it all is and how women have an easy time of it as housewives. I was angry at his attitude, he wasn't working and was still doing a rubbish job of it, which meant I had to redo a lot of what he did, and in the past I had done all of it and worked part time. He claimed I was just to fussy about stuff and the housework he did was fine. We rowed a lot and one Saturday I told him if it's all so easy for women I wanted him to live as one for a week. He claimed I was being pathetic, I was so angry at the time I told him if he didn't do this I wanted a divorce. I do think at the time I actually meant it as well, he must of realised this so agreed to it.

After agreeing he decides to ask what I meant, I think he thought he would wriggle out of it, but by now I was a woman on a mission. I stormed out the house and returned a couple of hours later having been shopping at the local charity shops. I dumped a pile of clothes on the table and told him to wash them as they are what he would be wearing for the next week. I'd even bought a pack of cheap knickers and a couple of cheap bras for him. I ordered him upstairs to teach him how to do make up, painted his nails and made him shave his legs and armpits. By the end of the day he knew exactly what I expected of him for the next week if he wanted to stay married.

He went through with what I asked and I told him he needed to continue living like this until he started doing housework to my standard. There was a rapid improvement and he went back to his man clothes the next week. The thing is I really liked it when he was wearing a short skirt with his smooth legs. I pushed him into continuing to shave his legs. His housework standards had improved and with it so had my mood and our sex life. I told him the sex was down to the smooth legs. I pushed him into wearing his skirts when we were at home together and bought him sexy lingerie to wear. I have since pushed the boundaries, he got another job but it is part time, I continued with my full time hours, he now wears lingerie full time, often wears skirts when he is not at work (at my insitance), and he does most of the housework. I on the other hand tend to laze around at weekends in a pair of jeans.

    That's way too much to read, but housewives have it extremely easy. Your redoing all the things he did is a result of your inability to deal with this 100% true fact, so you make it out that he's not doing things correctly or as good as you could do it. It's not hard to sit at home fold clothes and watch TV all day. Cleaning up after yourself and not living in filth isn't a job.

    • If you took the time to read my original post you would realise we are kind of on the same page here. The reason I got so mad is that for years I had done pretty much all the housework, that also includes, shopping, cooking, washing, ironing, etc and worked 20 hours a week. He at this point was not working at all, but was not doing an acceptable job of the housework. It was only when I got really mad and took extreme action that he got his act together. But by doing that he proved he could have been doing a good job all along. In a way he ended up as a victim of his own laziness.

        • Yes that's why only one of us works full time and the other works part time and takes care of the domestic stuff. It's just that I used to be the part time worker and domestic godess whilst he went to work full time, but now it's the other way round. It means that we have free time to go and enjoy our evenings, weekends, holidays etc.

            Why don't you just leave your house, and go travel and see the country. Your domestic situation seems to be a source of stress so why not just leave it behind?

    This seems to be more of a fantasy thing, one thing I don't understand about cis women is makeup it just ruins your appearance mist of the time, but to each there own, but yea it's normal to want a sissy instead of a husband, it's a growing trend

      I totally agree on make up. If you never start wearing it you won't need it. I never wear it.

    • It never started with trying to make him a sissy, I don't even think of him that way. It just started cos I was mad at him with his attitude, I guess I just flipped and told him if he thought the whole housewife thing was an easy cop out he needed to become one for a week, and that meant the whole live as a woman thing, clothes, makeup etc. I even told him I expected him to sit to pee, although I doubt that actually happened, he did start leaving the seat down though, probably to throw me off the scent.

      Thing is, once he was dressed this way I liked it, I found it a bit of a turn on. I guess that improved the sex, which in turn improved his attitude. The housework standards improved, I was happier and less tired cos I wasn't working full time then coming home to redo the housework he had done badly. It was like one thing led to another, so then I thought if this works we should keep things this way. I did meet a lot of resistance from him, but once he had proved he could do it, we both knew what standards I expected. When he protested I found withholding sex for a while gradually brought him round to doing things my way.

        I dated a woman years ago that had been with men, like manly men exclusively until her boyfriend before me. She liked how he was a lot more willing to do housework and tend to her needs than her previous boyfriends but he was a little...well little in the penis department. So...here comes me. She and I met through a female friend of hers that I had been with and she knew I was trans and on the kinky side so we chatted and decided to have a go of things. She told me what she was after and decided she wanted me in chastity and to be more of a sissy maid than a boyfriend.

        I spent quite a bit of time with her and we never once had sex but I think it was probably one of the best relationships like couple wise I had. There was no sexual tension and the few times she wanted me to do things with her I used a strap-on vibrator on her. We mostly hung out like best girl friends and she would have sex with a couple of other guys occasionally and that was always fine. She invited her ex(the less manly one) to use me when he wanted so it was an interesting time. I felt super fulfilled at that point because I was happy to service him and I was more than happy to cook and clean for her. She felt about like you did, she wanted me in dresses and skirts when doing it and had purchased me several maid outfits to do it in.

        I think if you're both enjoying things it's perfectly fine to continue down the path you're on honestly. If you like him skirts and he will do it for you, then have at it!

        • An interesting lifestyle and thanks for your support. Have to say though I don't keep him in chastity, we have a great sex life together and I wouldn't want that to change. I guess I am quite controlling, he only wears what he does at my insitance. It's probably more a case of he's got used to it and accepts it, more than enjoys it. But I really like the way things are and he gets his reward through sexual fulfillment.

            Yeah, everyone is different. I don't recommend chastity for everyone...well to anyone at all actually. It was just a part of that time of my life so I include it. I think a lot of the interesting parts about submission and dominance come into play when you consider this statement I heard in the community:

            A submissive is free to do what they want, when they want. They can leave if they want or refuse to do something. What makes a submissive submitting to a dominant so incredible is that the submissive chooses to do what is asked of them and chooses to let the dominant make their decisions for them.

            If your response is sexual fulfillment then that's how your relationship works, mine worked differently and both are good, just different.

    • Don't mean to appear funny, it works for me. I would say in all, my life is better. Just wondering how others view this reversal of roles.

    I agree men should do as much as house work as their wives, but dont see why they must wear skirts. Its back dated, not even modern women wear that these days lol...

      Most women (including house wives) I know wear jeans/shorts/track pants/pajamas btw. I rarely see anyone on skirts, skirts are so 70s fashion...

      • I know it probably sounds like I'm trying to feminise him and maybe in my subconscious that is what I'm doing. But I just like the look of him in a skirt. He's quite slim with a lovely bum and his legs are quite slender for a man. I also like the easy access for a quick groap when there's no-one around, especially when I'm chilling out at the weekend and he's standing there doing the ironing or something. When I think about it it's doing to him the stuff he did to me for years.

          His main point is right, your view of feminizing is back dated, skirts were popular between 1920s-1970s, women's fashion has changed since and very few women wear skirts anymore. In the 21st century for eg one of the most popular women's leg dress is the "low-rise jeans" since the y2k fashion revolution. Very few women wear skirts these days, its just too out dated.

          • Here in England skirts are still fashionable. I am not suggesting trousers are not also popular, but skirts and dresses have never gone out of fashion. Maybe it’s different in the states.

  • COSMICPSYCHO you are a moron. And before you ask what sort of moron I would suggest the sort with a very low level of intelligence, the sort of intelegence would be the sort you lack.
