May I humbly submit to you that women are not considered tacky for not wearing hose anymore? The trends have changed. The customs have changed. *Most* women no longer wear pantyhose, nor are they considered 'unfinished' if they don't. It is a 'normal' part of our culture now to not wear hose.

Now don't get me wrong...many women DO still wear pantyhose (mostly the older generation *hint, hint* :winkgrin ). Even I will wear them for formal occasions. I do not wear them otherwise. I think most women do the same nowadays.

I hope you will take a second look at this stance and see that it's OKAY to be flexible in this area. Trends change, customs change, cultures change. If they didn't, you would still be wearing a hat everywhere you go. :winkgrin

In this household the women will wear hose in public. I am very old school. I like the lady in my life to be dresses nice. And no flip flops in public either.

Good grief. I'm glad my husband doesn't micromanage my apparel.

I'm thankful for a good wife that likes to please her husband.

On thing I like about my wife was when we were going together and I took her fishing. She bought a cute little outfit to wear and she even had her hose on.

My wife dresses me, I don't dress her. :)

I am allowed to comment on how nice she looks reguardless of how she looks... which she always looks great (one of the benifits of having a hottie wife). however, I do not in any way have a desire to have input on subjects like if she is going to wear pantyhose. this is not an area of major concern for me. I figure she has a much better handle on the subject based on her 29 odd years of personal experiance with the subject.

I don't know what to say, but I know what to ask......so what is the deal with hose for you.

You said when they go out or to town you expect them to look nice and wear hose. Last time I checked fishing holes were pretty well in the woods, so who's looking and why on earth would you expect her to wear HOSE?

I bet she spends a bundle on hose - - can't imagine walking through the grass/woods fishing and not getting a snag or two.

My mama (grandmother that raised me)always wore hose and she (not ME) believe it a sin to be in public without hose on. When she was 80 and nearly dead, she would ask my wife to put her knee high on (her dresses were long enough that no one knew they were knee highs) before we took her to the doctor.

My mother is not in church but would never wear a dress and not wear hose.

I am old school and don't think that a lady is completely dressed without hose. I don't care what the style of the world is.

PS my wife ask me not to be in public with sandals on, she think it looks bad.
