Be yourself. express your fashion. If you can do it in a way with an accessory like a shawl or scarf to keep the holiday peace then lovely but be true to you as well

My Grandfather was Pretty good with female fashion. He would get me some cute fem clothes to wear.

We grandfathers know very little about female fashion, but some of us have the sense to shut up.

That doesn't seem very fair.

Like when my mom says "wear this outfit" because she wants me to look my best for whatever the occasion is. I'm more comfortable in jeans.

Your Grandpa older then me

Are the Jeans skin tight and sweater skin tight?

He was most likely born in the 1950s or early 1960s. He ideas are way different than yours.

Depending on his age, sometimes you might have to bite your tongue. Who knows how many years left you may have left to spend with them?

I'll give you an example

I'm a crossdresser and been doing for decades. But I won't let me great aunt and uncle find out. Their both in their late 90s and I want to keep the peace.

They believe in old values and old ways and no amount of talking would change their minds. Plus they would stop talking to me and cut off all ties with me.

They would believe I was possessed by the Devil and I was going straight to hell.

So sometimes instead of fighting, sometimes compromising without them knowing is sometimes the easier battle

Just food for thought

As long as it doesn't lead to any consequences, I suppose you should smile and say 'Of course, Grandpa'.

What does he expect you to wear ?????

Sounds like he is very strict

I mostly leave it up to my daughter and nieces unless their choices are way out in left field.

My granddaughters know to never listen to my comments on their clothing, such as the holes in their jeans.

Seems odd. Does he think ladies should always wear dresses or skirts? And what’s wrong with the sweater?

Arent you old enough to not worry about paw paws opinion on your clothes

How did it end? Did you have a nice Christmas despite everything?

What did it look like or does he just like girls in dresses

Maybe he’s old fashioned

Show him what’s not lady like with a short skirt

Is there anything wrong with ‘ladylike’? Really?

Why not post a pic of it

What's on it?

Why not?

Can we chat?

Sorry

Oops

Sounds like he's six decades behind the times

Always dress for yourself, not someone else.

Your grandfather needs to chill.
