When did women stop wearing panty hose? As far as I can remember, by the late 90s, fewer and fewer legs were graced by their sheer gossamer sheen. For me, it was the nylons that drew me into the fascination with the ultra feminine image, at a very young age. I saw stunning, gorgeous women at church each Sunday, dressed to the nines. I loved everything about them, and maybe because I was short, I mean I'm like four years old, it was easy to notice all those sexy high heels and stockings.
When I first got the idea I should try dressing up, of course the first thing I did was raid my mom's stocking drawer--to me, nothing said sexy like the sheer perfection of a stockinged leg, and nothing offered the tantalizing rush of violating gender taboos with such pulse raising force.
As I came of age, and was interested romantically and sexually in girls, of course I was attracted to girls in short skirts with stockings, the overt glamor of it all just knocked me out, the stunning display of feminine wiles so formally presented, the smoothness of the stockinged legs simulating the silky smooth delights that waited for the lucky explorer beyond the hems of the skirts.
When I was in junior high school in the early 70s, girls were wearing panty hose and short skirts, and as a young fella going through puberty, I loved it. Needless to say, I tried on my sisters panty hose at home every chance I could get. I even would get caught in the act sometimes, and I think I purposely courted this danger of discovery, part of the thrill of my early dressing.
As the 70s wore on, college girls were dressing down. My own inner tranny was weaker in these days, as I was in the full flush of young adulthood and my concerns were in other areas, mostly. I did notice a lack of dressed up girls, but of course was happy to date a variety of very cute dressed down hippy girls.
As the 80s dawned and I moved into an urban adulthood, I was not actively dressing yet, but I was delighted that women were begining to get really dolled up again. Maybe it was Madonna, who knows, but lots of gorgeous gams were on display with sheer panty hose and very high heels, and again I loved the look. Indeed, garter belts and stockings made a comeback too, no complaints here.
But, by the late 90s, bare legs were hip and fashionable. Panty hose became scarce. Aren't all those girls cold?? Sure, you still see some short skirts and dresses with panty hose these days, but it's the exception rather than the rule. I will say this, the manufacturers of panty hose must be happy that there are plenty trannies to go around, there will always be a niche market -- for Tranny Hose!
