A weird fact I learned

[Natalia Evans]

On WP, someone asked if you can feel your clothes and she said she learned you aren't supposed to feel them on you as you wear them. I never knew this. How is it supposed to feel like? Are you supposed to feel naked because you can't feel them?

I can feel my clothes all the time. I feel them when I move around, when I am sitting down or getting up, when I am walking and I can feel them touching my skin. How can anyone not feel this?  Wow, are NTs that insensitive? 


I can remember a very few times when I couldn't feel my clothes and I felt like I had nothing on. I suppose that's how it feels for NTs when they wear their clothes?

I asked my boyfriend if he can feel his clothes and he says he feels them all the time. He said it feels like something is pushing against him. For me it feels soft, when I am wearing jeans, it feels like something is being pulled when I sit down and I can feel them move when I get up. I hated jeans when I was little because I didn't like things tight on me even though I wore stretch pants and jeans also felt heavy on me. I thought jeans felt like that on everyone and wondered how they dealt with the feeling and my mother would tell me "you get used to it" whenever I didn't like wearing them. Now they feel soft now like knit thanks to the occupational therapy I had. My parents refuse to see it as me being fixed, they see it as helping me so things be easier in my adulthood. Their definition of fixing someone is changing who they are. My boyfriend's definition of fixing someone is bringing them back to life. My definition is helping them so they have a normal life as possible like teaching someone to talk, teaching them skills like body language, social skills, etc, improving their balance and hand eye coordination, treating them for their illness.


Joon finding Sam sure fixed her pretty much. She wasn't as sick like she was before. She seemed normal all of a sudden except for the breakdown she had on the bus. I bet Benny realized it so he came crawling back to Sam. I'm sure he apologized to him too for throwing him out.

I don't think that there has ever been a time in my life that I didn't feel my clothes if I was wearing some.

My daughter still wears the stretch knit pants like you used to, Spokane Girl.   She wears dresses over them, usually, but sometimes she wears long shirts.

She has a few pairs of regular pants or jeans, but she will hardly wear them, even though she has had lots of Occupational Therapy.  She also has a drawer full of bras, which she will wear sometimes.  She seems to be growing up fast.

I believe what she means is that one would grow accustomed to their feeling. Like one might grow accustomed to the smell of a house of the smell of one's own natural odour.

I often feel my clothes and/or lack thereof; I can not not wear briefs, I do not like my genitals to be "commando" as they say, but I am not always aware of the briefs themselves whilst wearing them...

Maybe that's why people sometimes forget to put their clothes on when they go out. I don't think i would do that

I've GOT to move to manchester.
Sounds a lot more interesting than here.

Incidentally, I think GA's got it exactly right.


Most people aren't particularly AWARE of their clothing,
but they sure the hell would notice that they WEREN'T
wearing any.

For me, it's so so. I usually do notice the feel.
I rather like not wearing, for just that reason.

Surprising isn't it?

[Calandale]

Surprising isn't it?

Not particularly. Hell, I don't
dislike you. Nor do I dismiss your
opinions. Just, when I see something
that I find outrageous, I react.

You'll notice that I'm not giving Haddy
an easy time, on his recent BS. And he's
the closest thing I've got to someone
who tends to agree with me (for whatever
unknown reason).

I will agree with a person if they say something I agree with no matter who they are.

SG, there are some clothes that I will not wear because I am too aware of them. Like scratchy rough jeans. Soft clothes are comfortable.

When I was younger I was ver stubborn and wouldn't agree with someone sometimes, based on who they were (if it was someone I didn't like or had argued with previously), when I otherwise would have agreed.

Or, I just wouldn't have admkited that I agreed with them,

Now I'm older, I try not to be like that. So I can disagree with people or think they're a tosser, but then take their oinion the same wayI would anyone else's opinion afterwarsd.

Everybody says how SOFT jeans are.
I've had trouble understanding. I mean,
really worn ones, sorta, but to mean, they
were always the hardest thing to wear.

So, when I suggest that you show me
something, you won't take the fact that
I'm super pervy into account? 

[Soph]

That would depend on what you want to see

Didn't take much mouthwash, did it?

Some jeans are made soft; their denim is softer compared to other jeans.
