I am asexual male, and own this identity fully. I do not require some outside mandate to dictate what I should or should not do, should or should not enjoy, or how I should or should not behave.
"Manly man-ism" is unhealthy. It exists solely as an outmoded and mentally toxic hanger-on that promotes neurotic mental hangups in men, and should be discarded with the rest of a person's shit.
I am able to appreciate how this structure can accentuate a female form, without being sexually titillated by it. I can see how it could be of potential practical value as a part of garment construction for that purpose, since this kind of structure could be used to simultaneously shape, and still conform with a woman's natural curvature. The double rope stranding in the back could be used to anchor a rear zipper (One strand down each side of the zipper, anchored down with some simple anchor stitches), for easy "Onesie" construction. Just climb in through the back, then zip it up. Combination dress bodice and shaping girdle, all in one. Some modifications to how the ropes move from front to back could eliminate the crossovers in the back completely, allowing this to be perfectly accommodating to such a product.
Rather than being titillated by this video, I have thoughts like the above. It could be combined with wide satin ribbon and bunting to create a very aesthetically provocative gown, without being unchaste.
That these ideas are the product of a bondage demonstration video, for a UK sex shop, is the WTF. Not that a dude could harbor thoughts on practical dress manufacture. Jeeze people, what is wrong with you?
