This is not Jewish...

Men are forbidden from wearing womens clothing... Women are forbidden from wearing mens clothing... Why waste time worrying about freaks and mutants?

http://www.askmoses.com/en/article/235,118/What-does-the-Torah-say-about-cross-dressing.html

What does the Torah say about cross-dressing?

Firstly, let's define "cross-dressing," of which there are two types. There's the silly party stuff that guys and gals occasionally indulge in for fun, like donning a wig or other garment that makes them appear like a woman (or a man). That (for the most part) is inconsequential.

Then there’s the serious stuff, where guys go en femme from sporadically to regularly, and from one private piece of apparel to a full public make-over. Or when women go all macho, dressing in a very manly fashion.

This latter type of cross-dressing, whichever reason motivating it, is not allowed.

G-d understands that some people have a preference for cross-dressing and acknowledges this reality by mentioning this law in the Torah.

In other words, G-d does not consider one evil or immoral for his or her innate sexual nature or desire, just like He doesn't consider one evil or immoral for wanting to eat non-kosher. G-d doesn't say, "Don't get hungry for pork"--G-d says, "Don't eat pork." Likewise with sexuality, He acknowledges that you may have certain innate desires, but tells you to how to react to them.

In the case of cross-dressing G-d says "A man's attire shall not be on a woman, nor may a man wear a woman's garment".1

It is important to note that according to Jewish law, the prohibition of cross-dressing is only violated when one puts on something that is exclusively the domain of the opposite sex.

What makes you think they would be new  :o   Honestly I am of the strong opinion that past members who have gone bad should never be mentioned on the forum again.

I don't know if the body shapers are really feminine if they're designed to help with back pain. I saw a discussion on Amazon about man boobs and how men get embarassed when they jiggle around and they were discussing how to control that problem without resorting to a women's bra. The made-for-men body shaper was a more masculine option in that case that was mentioned.

I don't think men wearing high heels would be good at all though. I get annoyed seeing pink clothing in the men's section too.

Too funny!  In Seinfeld, George Castanza's father invents such a thing for men, and he calls it, "The Bro" [as opposed to a "bra"].

Actually Kramer calls it the bro. Frank Costanza prefers to call it the manzier.

Men that wear pink are trying way too hard.  I think an occasional dress shirt may be ok, but this look where men are wearing pink POLO teeshirts is usually way pretentious, especially when they pop the collar
