Thur. Ts....Do clothes make the Dyke?

Morning ALL!
I noticed lots of discussion in other threads about camo and tanks and tool belts LOL 
Anyway, I thought it might be fun to talk about dressing like a Lesbian.

Hey Cat! Thanks for your reply!
Excellent topic! I haven't read all the replies, so I'm sure I'm repeating things that have already been said many time, but here are my thoughts...
There are definitely certain styles of clothing that set my gaydar off. It's not necessarily specific items, just a style and more than that, the way the clothes are worn (if that makes any sense...) and the clothes in conjunction with other factors (body language, hair style, jewelry, etc)
I'm pretty feminine -- I spend most of summer in tank tops and loose skirts -- but Jamie definitely dresses in a more androgynous style. She buys her pants (and some shirts too) in the men's section because she likes the fit better. And she shys away from anything too overtly feminine. It's interesting because I don't see her style as masculine, but she often has people (like obnoxious coworkers) ask her why she is trying to "dress like a man". (I was unaware that only men wore things like khakis and a polo shirts...) I think a lot of it is how a woman (specifically a lesbian woman) carries herself, and that affects the way the clothes look on her. I honestly think that if I wore Jamie's clothes, but still had my long hair, still walked the say way, sat the same way, etc., no one would think twice about it.
Hey Annie!
SO glad to see you again and have your input!
I agree with you totally.
