If you look at popular stereotypes of men, you would think that all of us are completely crazy about women's dresses, lingerie, and underthings. After all, isn't that how we are marketed to? Commercials for men feature scantily clad women, big cars, and beer – although not always in that order. Nevertheless, a lot of us don't really fit into the stereotype at all. As a matter of fact, I didn't care one bit about women's clothing until my present relationship. I knew enough to compliment a my girlfriend on her dress, but it was all the same to me. Womens dresses, shirts, blue jeans – I didn't really care what she was wearing as long as she was with me.
Most of my girlfriends really appreciated my view of women's apparel. After all, no one wants to feel stressed out about how they look all the time. It is nice to be dating someone who thinks you are good looking no matter what you are wearing, even if you just got out of bed. My current girlfriend, however, is something different. To tell you truth, she is somewhat high maintenance. If she has bought a new womens dress, I had better like it. My previous girlfriends would put up with me pretending to like the womens dresses that they bought. Some of them could see through it and some of them couldn't, but all that really mattered was that I found them beautiful. For the first time, however, I am expected to take an active interest in my girlfriends clothes.

A sweet disorder in the dress
Kindles in clothes a wantonness:
A lawn about the shoulders thrown
Into a fine distraction:
An erring lace, which here and there
Enthralls the crimson stomacher:
A cuff neglectful, and thereby
Ribbands to flow confusedly:
A winning wave (deserving note)The women who take husbands not out of love but out of greed, to get their bills paid, to get a fine house and clothes and jewels; the women who marry to get out of a tiresome job, or to get away from disagreeable relatives, or to avoid being called an old maid—these are whores in everything but name. The only difference between them and my girls is that my girls gave a man his money’s worth.

Like all boyfriends, I have been dragged along to women's clothing stores from time to time, but usually in the past, the trips were few and far between. I would not make my girlfriends go discount clothes shopping with me, and they would not make me go fashion clothing shopping with them. My current girlfriend, however, insists on trying on all of her womens dresses for me. At first, I thought it was low self-esteem, but I realize now that it is something else. You see, she really feels attractive in well-made womens dresses, and she wants me to feel that she is attractive in them. More than that, she wants me to develop some taste in close myself. She figures that if I have to come with her shopping for womens dresses, I will eventually become more interested in men's clothes as well. To tell you the truth, it has worked a bit. I take more care with my clothes than I used to.
