It doesn't matter who's buying what. A man could buy a dress, and many people may perceive it was oh
dang hide he's a crosser. He may be buying it for someone. Exactly the looks I got when I went into
wal mart and got some boxers for my brother for Christmas. I believe that money is money, what they
do with it is their decision, and sales people should butt out. They're getting paid to ring in
items, not question the person about the items being rung in. |

I think a man should be able to buy a dress without having funny looks brought upon him...i guess
its really just his choice and everyone should try to except it...or at least pretend....and not
make it into a bigger deal than they already think it is...its their cash....and its lets say the
same cash...that a woman would cough out..... |

Well it’s certainly unprofessional as well as rude. Two things a salesperson should never be. If
this occurs to you, I suggest you clearly but calmly express your disappointment at his
unprofessional attitude and tell him you will be taking your business elsewhere. It seems the most
likely way to effect a positive change the next time that particular salesperson is in a similar
situation. |

A professional salesperson or store clerk should not give males who buy women's clothing for
whatever reason strange looks. It's really none of their business what customers choose to buy and
instead of showing their surprise or disapproval, they should just stick to working the till. I have
bought women's clothing and accessories in the past for girlfriends, my sister and family members,
and I think that this is entirely normal.
Recently, however, I had a little experience at a DM drugstore in Berlin. My aunt and cousin asked
me to buy them various make-up products and mascara. I felt a bit self-conscious about this,
realizing that I might get looks, so when I asked a female clerk to help me find the products that
were on my list, I felt it necessary to tell her straight off that it was for my aunt. She sort of
smirked a bit, and gave me that "I know what's really going on" look. |

I'm saying yes only because I agree you are fully in your right to buy clothes normally for the
other gender. And you should not be harassed or treated poorly in any way.
My other comment though is society is pretty tough place regardless of the gender issue. I'm a guy
and I could go pick out some mens' clothes and still get the stink eye from someone either because
they don't like the clothes I'm looking at or they simply don't like me. And it's not illegal to
give or get the stink eye, just very rude. |

My money is just as green as some woman's who would buy it so don't give me those looks. |

Dresses are culturally female attire.
I am female and hate dresses, only wear jeans.
But culturally, dress is still woman. |

I buy women's clothing all the time! That's because I need to. I very rarely get any weird looks or
comments, but on those rare occasions that I do, I let them know I am not in the least bit
embarrassed. Try it-it works, and ruins all their fun. Full disclosure: I am a male to female
transexual, not a crossdresser, so I do a lot of my shopping as a woman anyway. But the same holds
true-when someone reads me, I let them know I am not at all worried about it. I'm happy and secure
with who I am. If you are, people tend to leave you alone. Oh, darn! I meant to put this comment on
the other side! Lol I'm sorry, boy2girl31 |

He shouldn't be, but he will. I know technically I am for, but I wanted to show that I think this
will never happen. The reason for this is that cross-dressers are weird. I'm not saying I have
anything against them, I'm a huge liberal, but the vast majority of people are not cross-dressers,
so it is natural if unfortunate that people are surprised and so on by them. |
