One day during the holiday season, my uncle wanted to gift his daughter her favorite apparel and he was stared at like a weirdo while shopping in the women's section, mostly by other women. They looked at him as if he was an alien who didnt belong in this world. This begs me to ask the question. Suppose you saw a guy shopping for clothes in the women's section, what thoughts go through your mind.
  1. He is gay or a transgender
  2. He is insane
  3. Perhaps he is buying something for his girlfriend, wife, or daughter.
  4. None of the above
Also, what's so odd with men shopping in the womens section. Women shop in the mens section to buy stuff for their Husbands or sons.

Unfortunately I might think cross-dresser (). That, or buying for someone else. Stereotypically, we think most straight men will avoid shopping like the plague. Of course that isn't a fair assessment and it is changing.

And it's not odd unless he holds it up to fit him or sniffs it.

It is creepy guys peeking naked flesh. When they stop this behavior, then welcome to buy clothes. If there is empty changing room but a guy next to it I tell a vendor I am not try on those clothes before man is gone. They become peeking.

What does that have to do with buying clothes for your loved one.

And I sure hope nobody peeked at me , because I have had women stand near my door.

Think about that, if they are buying clothes for their loved ones they should not be near fitting rooms!

Men out of women fitting rooms, simple.

There is some unisex shops, use them or by online.

Wouldn't guys usually finish "measuring" their wife or GF in bed or know the size that fits their loved one before buying. Why should we peek.

Then you can ask a vendor to bring right sizes for you and stay on cashbox-area. No need to step near fitting rooms.

I find it ridiculous that anyone would be staring at him. There is nothing odd about a man shopping in the women's section. I would assume he was shopping for a gift, I'd never give it a second thought unless he looked confused or uncomfortable in which case I would hope an employee would help him out.
