I once posted a treatise on this very subject in the 'Old PFM'.
My beliefs and feelings are basically this. For myself, I do not believe that my pantie wearing is a fetish. I see it as a way of life or lifestyle. I believe that in all men there is a feminine side. In some men it is weak and in others extremely strong. I believe that this feminine side is present in different degrees, from not wearing panties to the ultimate gender change. For me, it falls somewhere in the middle.
I sometimes wish that I were female, but not to the extent that I would change gender, even though I do occassionaly have thoughts along that line. Putting aside all the cliches about panties being more comfortable then men's underwear, by the way, they are, Pantie wearing seems so natural. It satisfies my feminine side to some extent. My feminine side comes through when watching a movie. Tears come to my eyes, for example the movie 'Ghost'. When Patrick Swayze's charecter finally leaves this earth for what I would take to be Heaven, the tears roll down my face. Even in a happy movie, tears of joy roll down my face.
When the Star Spangled Banner, or some other patriotic song is played, tears well up in my eyes.
A natual disaster happens, or a see a child injured, tears form. All this would be considered in todays and past societies as being unmanly and a sign of weakness. How many of you when you were children and you scraped your knee and was crying, you were told not to cry, because big boys don't cry, only girls cry. Neither of my parents said that to me. Perhaps that is one of the reasons I am who I am today. I don't consider myself any less of a man. I served my country in the military, I even spent a year in Vietnam. I am honored and proud to have served my country and help to protect her citizens.
I make no excuses for wearing panties and occasssionaly other female articles of clothing. This is who I am. I truly believe that there are two sides to every man. No, I do not believe that my wearing panties is a fetish, but my pantie wearing is a true way of life.
I would tend to agree with Puss Puss, just because I wear panties does not mean I'm gay or a freak it just feels natural, and i also feel that some times I would like to experience life as a woman, not just a cross dresser but to actually be a woman for short period of time and be able to draw off of that to better understand human kind.
pusspuss and panty john I could relate to your post and it's really comforting to know that others feel like they have a feminine side but also that it's only a part of their whole being.
I have had a funny relationship with crying- i feel i either cry too much or too little- but there are certainly many things that make me tingle and well up with happy tears. Like instances of intense understanding and resolution between human beings- say when a long standing feud is overcome by a small act of selflessness graciously received. Even if it happens in a movie it still gives me tingles.
Panties also give me tingles. But so far in my very few little adventures no tears. Yet.
Undies, panties and other lingerie items, made out of Tricot, and other extremely soft fabrics, simply electrifies Winkie, and the other skin areas that pay sensory tribute to him. I don't anaylyze, nor identify, nor attribute, a given particular sexual/gender orientation, to the profuse perceptions and fantasies--when I'm really stoked--that course through my mind, as I'm playing. It all just feels so damned fantastic!!!!
And, I also trip on the way certain fabrics look on me, as I play. My current avatar ought to give you a clue.

Of course this is for you. As for me, winkie gets no such sensation. Each of us is an individual and as I said, Our feminine side in some is very strong and in others very weak. It can be hard to notice, or easy to notice. I still contend that in every male, and the opposite for females, is the opposite gender to some extent. It just takes time for one to realize that he or she has this attribute. Having a feminine or masculine side is nothing to be ashamed of or afraid of. It's there wether or not one wants to admit it or one has yet to discover it.All this aside, it is time to start a new movement: PANTIE POWER, power to all pantie wearing men. Yes, I was in my teens and twenties in the sixties.
@ breeziestroke- so it's not necessarily a feminine side of you that you feel but isn't the feminine panty allure part of the whole fantasticness? Frills, fabric, frolic, feeling and fun? Feminine feeling? But perhaps as you say such moments of joy often rise above any labels we try to give them. @pusspuss- I relate to your feminine side hypothesis altho I'd say the feeling/sensation is part of that for me.

That's good, the feeling part is for some and not for others. For me, there is no thrill. At this stage of pantie wearing, panties just feel natural to me as the underwear I should be wearing. I like most women, can tell you about all the pair of panties in my dresser drawers. There is no one answer to male pantie wearing, just that I still believe in the feminine side in every male. Those who doubt it just ahven't come totaly to terms with it.
I really appreciate all the posts in this thread, especially by PussPuss. I no longer identify with wearing panties as a fetish either. I think there is a point where a panty-wearer "gets over the hump", and just starts wearing underwear. For me, I wear underwear like most people. Underwear is underwear. The packing, or gender-specific aisle in the store, doesn't change the fact that it is underwear.
I only do it when I get high,but when that happens I really get in to it.I tuck it and cant stop looking on the mirror.I love wearing them when I am high and wish I had a woman that would dress me up and f@#% me good...

"Pee-Eff", please pray tell, what do you get high upon, before or during pantieplay?
I gave up Cannabis a very long time ago--close on to Twenty years now--been there, done that--replaying the same videotape in my mind, throughout my soul, bazillions of times, with it subtly getting more anxious and psychotic with each playing. For me, the longer you stone, the harder it is to achieve Satori, Nirvana, be granted an Epiphany, and the more likely it is you'll hit the wall of Hell.
But, for while it lasted, pantieplay, while stoned, was a gas. I even pantieplayed while I was on L.S.D. (Thirty-Nine years ago.)!!
Pantieplay now, in of itself, is a gas by itself.
Just be careful that you don't take/push yourself to the far side of psychosis, to where you can not retrace your steps out of there.
By the way, if you want to use cuss words in this Forum, you can get around the auto-censor, simply by placing a hyphen/dash somewhere in those cuss words.

I wear panties because it's a sexual taboo. It kinky. It's fun. I get a rush out of buying them. I love feeling myself in them and love when I wear nylon while my wife plays with me. I wear VF pj bottoms to bed (cut out the tag and they are black so she thinks they are vintage mens). Would love to be able to wear panties, garters, stockings, girdles..bottom wear...more freely. I have a collection of about a 100 pairs and its growing. Stashed in my closet and garage.
I love the feeling of wearing them and knowing that whomever I am talking with doesn't know I have panties on. I love feeling them slide across my bottom when I bend over.
