Once I realized I was an anti-feminist, I thought I better look the part. I used to wear jeans and t-shirts all the time. Never sweats, but not much better looking really. I felt so frumpy, and not at all feminine.

Once I bought a few dresses, I was hooked, and bought more. Skirts count, by the way. I felt like an entirely different person, and I got treated that way too. People opened doors for me and commented on how I looked (they were always positive). My husband seemed to treat me differently too. He’s more, um, “interested” now.

I still wear jeans when it’s freezing out, but once it hits 60 degrees or so, I’m all skirts and dresses, every day, no matter what. I even work in the garden in a dress. Surprisingly, you can actually spade up and plant a whole garden in a white eyelet sundress without getting dirty! Who knew? I love it.
