Boy likes Sexy Lingerie? Nothing Interesting Plays Agony Aunt

Is it wrong that a young chap has a passion for sexy lingerie?

Taken from the Guardian this week.

My wife has had some items of clothing go missing over the last few months, which baffled us. A few weeks ago, she went into our 15-year-old son’s bedroom while he was at school and discovered a heap of sexy lingerie and womens clothing in his closet: lingerie including bras, knickers, tights, sports bras, swimsuits and sports skirts. We have no idea how to deal with this situation.

We asked our experts Dave and Dave to respond

Dave number 1 replies:

There are support organisations for guys who like to cross dress and opportunities to meet others who do the same thing. There is literature around that can help him understand his interest and also to help parents to understand. His cross dressing may be a private erotic fetish or it may be something that he wishes to express socially. There are places to go in different parts of the country and stuff on the internet. It is a complex subject and different people cross dress for different reasons. A small but important number may be interested in changing gender but most cross dressers are not. He deserves calm supportive parents to encourage him to find out what his interests are without them jumping to any conclusions themselves. Let him experiment without shame.

You say later in your cry for help:

Doing nothing doesn’t feel right and anyway, my wife would like her clothes back.

I’m guessing that if you can make a joke as wonderfully dry as this, you’re probably going to cope with things ok.
