For those who's wives dont wear hosiery... Some hope. Wed, 30 April 2008 02:21 Go to next message
Me
Hello all. I would like to share some personal examples of how to subtly convince our wives to wear stockings. I have been with my lovely wife for 6 years now. She has absolutely amazing legs! Being an admirer of stockings, I often wondered how wonderful she would look. Well, 7 months into our relationship after not once seeing her in hosiery, I heard the dreaded "women don't wear nylons. Thats an 80's thing" as she was talking to a group of ladies. Silently, I was a bit bummed to say the least. Our relationship was moving at light speed (still is) and I decided to take action. I set up a "Date day", got us a hotel room and told her I had something very special planned. I also told her that I was going to ask her to wear something special for me. Our day was great. Near dinner time, I had her sit (we were at a nice shopping mall) outside a Fredericks of Hollywood as I boldly walked in and picked out the lingerie. I grabbed a white corset with hooks and 6 straps, matching thong and white stockings. As we walked the mall, she kept saying "let me see!". I would not allow her. Well the time came and I laid everything out in the bathroom for her. I heard her laugh (which had me worried) and she apparently had a tough time with the straps. She managed however, and made her appearance. She sullenly came out and said "I look like a prostitute". I said "you are the most beautiful prostitute I have ever seen" and she laughed. We sat and talked for a while and she started crossing her legs and looking at the stockings. I was obviously ga-ga at this point. Since then, she has worn stockings for me on several occasions and actually got me into a pair (what an experience!!) Most recently, I even put a pair on my wife (what a thrill). SHe was blind folded and kept trying to guess their color. Well they were suntan stretch stockings with a 5 inch lace top. She guessed "pink". I'll keep that in mind. So, thats my hope for you guys out there who's wives dont seem to ever want to wear stockings or hosiery. I asked and my incredible loving wife complied.
I know all situations are different. Sometimes just asking in an affectionate, romantic way will open those doors. Cheers!

I have to congratulate you on your cunning and wonderful way of getting your wife to wear stockings. many otheres should take a page from your book. No begging, a great day out, a treat for her (and you). FANTASTIC!

Just goes to show, what women say when they are with their mates and what they'll do with their partners is two different things.

I daresay she felt like she was a prostitute when she was wearing all that stuff but I suspect that few prostitutes in this day and age wear such expensive and nice lingerie, except for the ones who charge more than £100 a night (not that I know).

My advice is, when it comes to keeping your bloke happy, do what it takes, within reason. After all, no-one else is going to know except you and your man (unless he is like my last boyfriend who usually shared details with his friends).

I love comments as they mean a great deal... What will I do next? haha. Mich, you are correct when you say "My advice is, when it comes to keeping your bloke happy, do what it takes, within reason. After all, no-one else is going to know except you and your man". The funny thing is after I was convinced to try some on (btw the were floral print stockings and only went above my knees haha) she said "this will be our little secret". WOW! Testing the limits of your relationship can be incredible. I found out that my wife would never have known, had I not coyly manipulated her, my desire to have her wear stockings for me.

Now some advice. I am planning another "get away" for us. Any advice on where I could get some very sheer, pink stockings with some stretch. I would prefer higher quality brands. An also, some suggestions on lingerie to go with?

Thanks so much...

Try here. Plenty of stuff. You might also try Rigby and Peller if you want more expensive bras and knickers but the suspender belts here are the business. They also do Fredericks of Hollywood stuff as well.


I am always amazed that women who eventually 'do' hosiery, particularly stockings, after any absence of the same, feel they are in some way pandering to the male sexual fantasy and are betraying the so-called sisterhood of women. Our grandmothers and great-grandmothers were fighting for womens rights AND wearing stockings LONG before the dawn of 1970s feminism. Going barelegged in their day was unthinkable.

What these women don't realise is that not all of us are lesbian or gay orientated and we still need to go to bed with our menfolk and make love to them. If wearing lingerie and expensive hosiery is the way, then as Nike says 'just do it'. After all, you're not entertaining the 'sisterhood' in your bedroom, now are you? (I hope not).

I really don't think it's 'incredibly loving' for a wife, after six years, to have worn stockings 'on several occasions', when she knows he loves stockings, has gone to great trouble to please her, and would like her to wear them often.

I see what you are saying anghared. I actually wrote "incredible" and not "incredibly". I felt that way prior to our experience. And, although you have a point, there are lots of guys who wish their wives would when they do not. A guy does not want to ask because we feel like she would think we were weird or whatever. My post was simply to show how I expressed my desires to her and the positive response I received. Was her response wonderful? Absolutely! Is she incredibly loving? Well, the answer is "YES" and you can quote me on that.

I do see your point, but don't you feel you should have made the move several years earlier?!

Sometimes, Anghared, there is a time to make the move and in Me's case it was THAT particular time.

Maybe his wife wasn't ready to wear stockings, then and would have refused to do it at an earlier time? You just don't know what the reaction will be.

Anyway, what does the timing matter? He has what he wants, a wife who will wear stockings for him on occasion and that's all that matters.

And I will further qualify things by saying we've been together 6 years (married for 3) and she started wearing stockings for me prior to our marriage.

'Me', I'm afraid I misread your opening contribution and assumed your wife's first wearing of stockings was fairly recent, after you'd been together for six years. I apologise for my careless reading. And I agree that the important thing is that she responded to your wishes very positively. However, can she really only have worn them 'several times' in over five years? That doesn't seem very much; but then, perhaps your 'stocking urge' is less strong than is the case with most men on SHQ; and I absolutely agree that every relationship is unique and you are happy with her response --so that's great. And your 'gentle art of persuasion' is indeed a lesson for other stocking-starved men.

Thank you anghared. That was my intent. To let guys know that it can be done in a fun persuasive manner which satisfies us both. I always tell my wife, when she wears stockings its like a wonderful present but with beautiful wrapping! Thanks for the contributions and input!

Well done " me " and " anghared " You seem to have worked it out..I have had many threads on SHQ about not wearing and my wife is one of them..I will keep on hopeing but it looks too distant..We have been married for 10 years and in the last 8-9 years I can count on 1 hand the number of times she has worn..I have complimented her on her looks and how I feel 'till I am out of breath but nothing seems to work...Never mind...Best of luck to all of you...and I hope your partners appreciate how you feel towards them..

Smile You might like to get her some Gervin Capri RHT Bicolores. They are 15 denier & therefore not maximum sheer, but they do them in pink with a black welt.

Thanks lace_lover. Have you tried setting up your wife as I did? Pick out some amazing lingerie, stockings or whatever hosiery you like, and set it out for her. I once text'ed my wife simply the words "black tonight". I was happy when I got home. The best advice I can give is make it fun/special for her first while adding in your fun. You may have to ask/tell her to wear them.

My goodness violet, those cervins are awesome. My Wife has very long, slim legs and stockings without lycra tend to bunch on her. I also tend to like them on the stretchy side with maybe a little lycra. Any advice on sizing for rht's or the best quality stretch stockings (in light pink) would be much appreciated...

Smile RHT's vary according to manufacturer, from my limited experience. The Cervins are fine on me in medium, but the same size by Gio comes up to my armpits! Also, they did not look good. I was glad when one laddered! Shocked

Thanks for your reply " ME "
That's a great idea but one that I have already tried much to no avail..When I have tried laying out some items it is met with some form of comment so I don't even bother and just wait for her to put something on ( which usually involve jeans and pop socks )
Thanks for your help but as I have always said " I live in hope "

Fortunately, my other half doesn't lay clothes out for me so I can't comment. If I saw clothes being laid out, for me, it might imply that whatever I pulled out of the wardrobe myself was not 'good enough'.

That said, there are times when you simply can't think of anything that might be appropriate to wear and to have someone laying out clothes for you, might not be a bad thing. Depends on the occasion.

These days, there aren't many occasions I won't dress for. If I'm going to a rock concert, it would have to be jeans.
