Clothes make..........

  And she looked, and said in a loud voice " The King has no clothes on!"

   

  As I stood today looking for Narnia in the back of my wardrode, it struck me. No, not a snowball. but a thought about the clothes hanging there. Realising that there is a 30/70 split between my male clothes and my female ones (the latter being the larger percentage).

   

  How did this happen I ask myself?(Sensible male vioce). Well you went out and brought them came the reply.(Sarcastic female) I really must stop holding conversations like this with myself.

   

  So male cothes list; a dozen t-shirts or so, couple of pairs a jeans, suit, smart trousers + shirts, hoodies, joggers, two pairs of trainers, shoes, boots and underware (pants + socks). Plus my work uniform. Doesn't take much room up really.

   

  Famale cothes list; eight pairs of jeans, seven denim skirts, nine other assorted skirts, seven dresses, six pairs of leggins, lots of underware (bra, knickers, stockings tights, socks), about two dozen assorted tops plus other assorted clothes. Plus make-up,  nail polish, wigs, shoes, boots and sandles!

   

  This little takes up 70% of wardrode, 4 draws and 2 cupboards. No wonder my GF moans about my female clothes.

   

  So at what point in my life did I aqiure more female clothes than male? I know it didn't happen overnight, but it's happened. I relutant to buy male clothes till they've worn out, but female clothes I spot, I want! I keep saying to myself I'll restrict myself, I wont buy anything this month, I'll....Oh, that's lovely, I want it!

   

  So are my male clothes becoming an endangered species? Are my female clothes making an aggressive take over? Or should I just ignore it and keep looking for Narnia?
