The Freedom of Clothes

There's far too much on the Internet for me to address the issue of women and clothes, but I'll add a small observation, which is about what's it is and worth, meaning there's more value in coffee at Starbucks and it last longer.

One thing women have is the freedom of clothes and one thing transwomen want is the freedom of clothes. A woman can make any clothes her clothes, there's no clothes that's off limits to women or their sense of fashion.

And before you think, "Wait, there's...", think again because there's already a feminine or woman's version of the same thing, even men's boxer shorts and briefs; women have already taken possession of them into the fashion and also made their own version of them. Check the fashion catalogs.

Anyway, the point is that a woman can fill her closet with any clothes and wear whatever fits her mood, interest or fancy for the moment, the day or whatever. Transwomen strive to be there during their transition, but often make one mistake.

One of the moments a transwoman values is the day she throws or gives away all her male clothes, often cited as the moment of losing their old self, but some transwomen have to keep some for times when they have to dress in "guy mode" for some situation or event where being their old self is expected or demanded.

What they forget is that, while ridding themselves of their old clothes as a symbol of ridding themselves of their old self, that many of their old clothes are quite useful and during and after their transition the clothes can become part of their wardrobe as women's fashion.

The key is that they'll be seen and treated as women so the clothes doesn't change what or who people see. While ridding themselves of the clothes, they're ridding themselves of the freedom of clothes, the freedom women have.

The freedom women have is the freedom with clothes, any clothes. Transwomen need to remember it before they trash all their old clothes. Memories are one thing when thinking about the old clothes, but memories can be remade when making them your new women's clothes.

This is because the world won't see your old self, only your new self, a woman, enjoying the freedom of clothes.
