Do girls like boys who wear tights?

Answer 1

Boys can wear tights in specific contexts such as sports, dance and costumes.

However, tights and pantyhose were used as the solution to address the ever rising hemlines during the middle of the 20th century. Prior to that boys and men would wear tights without stigma. But after girls and women adopted tights in the late 50s and 60s the fashion quickly became a female fashion, as they were worn with skirts and dresses. The second half of the 20th century designated tights a new social norm for women to wear and in many cases they were required or expected. Due to this it was considered inappropriate for men and boys to wear tights in most social contexts.

This social norm continues as of this post, All forms of tights, including ”tights, pantyhose and leggings” are typically worn by women as fashion, with men wearing them in limited contexts such as dance, sports and costumes.

This is why boys can’t wear tights as freely today. They are still associated with the female wardrobe. The social expectation is that women and girls may wear them freely, but not boys or men.

• If you are talking about super heroes, both girls and guys both wear them as superheroes.
• Personally, I wouldn't, and I don't think boys should, unless they wore them with style and individuality. If they wore brightly colored ones with shorts or something like that, then it would be cool!
• Sure. Tights are not gender specific. Tights are used for many reasons in boys life. Sports of course and lately fashion. Tights for fashion should be worn with an outfit, not alone. Boys should wear underwear, for example, but not alone, of course, it is "under" the clothes. Don't get so hung up on clothing.
• If they want to they can, but they tend not to.
• Not all men do. But we want to see them on girls.
• If they want to they can
• If they are in a performance such as a dance performance
• It's okay to be different!
• They become hot and boys like it.
• If they like their genitalia against their leg!
• Only if they want to make their own fashion statement
• In most countries tights on boys is not something people even ask, as it is not any big deal. In other countries some school uniform codes require boys to wear tights under their shorts.
• It is just clothes. There are no rules in general, and it depends on what you need tights for. It is common, very common, in sports, including running, Wrestling, cycling, swimming and of course dance. For costumes it is fine also. If you want to wear tights as a fashion statement then things change. It is fine for outlandish looks like emo, rock-n-roll, etc. if incorporated within the attire, but would not work as well if worn alone. For groups known for laying low with fashion like school jocks, preps etc, it would be out of place.
• It's a vague question. Yes, if some reason like sports dance performance, for sure. Maybe otherwise, styles are changing.
• According to numerous medical books, tight pants are not recommended for men because they have the potential to harm the male genitalia (or certainly cut down the production of sperm) but because tights are soft and flexible they should be fine and cause no harm.
• Tights with wild patterns on them can be worn to sleep in or as long underwear in cold weather.
• Fire fighters wear them as insulation against extremes of heat and moisture
• Tights provide protection against the elements and against parasite, leaches, mosquitoes, etc.
• As part of a costume such as one of the Founding Fathers or anyone living 200 years ago.

Answer 9

Tights currently exist in various forms including footed tights, pantyhose and leggings or yoga pants.

Of the above mentioned items, leggings are currently available for boys to wear. The style is usually worn in an athletic setting and worn under shorts.

A boy might also wear tights for ballet or dance.

But the wearing of tights for boys is generally accepted only in a limited context such as dance or sports.

In almost all cultures tights have been worn prediminately by girls and women for the last sixty years or so, This occurred because women and girls began to wear shorter dresses. Tights were used for warmth and keeping the legs modest. Over the years tights have become associated as a female garment.

Most social contexts would frown upon boys, or men wearing tights as everyday fashion. Social stigma usually occurs and men and boys are pressured not to wear tights.

The issue of it being wrong for boys to wear tights is linked to social norms and expectation in how one dresses. While society is accustomed to women or girls wearing tights, its no longer accustomed to men wearing them. That would lead some to conclude its wrong for boys to wear tights except maybe for dance and sports.
