Do you have any sensitivities over certain clothes?

I can't wear anything tight. At all.

I am female but I hate girls'/women's knickers. I wear loose fitting boxer shorts instead.

I also can't wear silk, wool or rough materials.

I don't like to wear anything tight, anything made of wool, underwired bras, or anything clingy or sweaty.

I used to be a lot more tolerant with clothes, but I had a couple of very stressful years and during this time I seemed to become more and more sensitive, which is interesting. As a result I had to give away a lot of clothes and all of my bras, as they all had underwires, and cut off my hair as that was getting on my nerves too.

I don't like silk. It makes my skin itchy.

there's a type of synthetic fibre that is lovely until it's washed.. then it gives me that 'nails on a blackboard' feeling.

I'm the opposite. I will only wear tight clothes, I always have to wear a tanktop. I won't wear denim and mostly don't wear pants. But I will wear tights or socks, because they're tight-fitting. I typically wear shoes without any laces, and almost always wear a jacket (hoodies are bad, because they don't zip so taking them on and off is horrible. I hate changing clothes.)

Baggy clothes brush up against you, it's horrible.

I cannot wear anything that is too tight and tend to buy something that is too large. I dislike jeans, wool, silk and rough fabrics.

I used to wear jeans because my parents only bough me these things but now I have totally stopped and feel better. I also prefer skirts over pants.

the only way clothing really bugs me is if it is too tight around the neck/shoulders, and of course the junk...

aside from that I am VERY picky about colors.

I can't wear anything tight either or else I feel like I am suffocating. I don't even wear a bra either, if men want to gawk at what can be seen, as long as they don't touch. I can't wear anything with buttons or embrodery either. I can't volenteer at the local zoo because of their stupid uniform policy requires a button down shirt. Perhaps I should sue for discrimation like this Muslim girl is doing to Disney because they won't let her wear her head covering. Anyway, I think it'd get "fired" my first day for insulting people when they called a lion a tiger or something stupid like that or asked me what something was when the sign is in front of them. But anyway, I can't even wear pants. I would have meltdows as a kid when my mom insisted I do for winter and I felt as if I couldn't brethe because the waste was too tight. It could be a size 100 waste and I'd still feel as if I was suffocating. I can't have anything touching my knees when they are unbent or else I will faint. There must be an artery or a nerve there that shouldn't be but the stupid doctors think it's just a sensory thing related to the autism and nothing else. I could only stand to wear pants for a short time and jeans were the only thing I could tolerate. My mom says that as a kid, I would only tolerate sweats. I don't remember much from when I was a kid, but I think she is right. As an adult, I can't tolerate anything with an elastic waste. My stupid riding instructor said it was impossible to ride a horse in shorts without rubbing your legs raw. If I ever get my own horse, I will ride bareback then. I think saddles are hard on a horse's back anyway. As an adult I am free to wear whatever I want and that consists only of denium shorts and Lion King and Invader Zim shirts.

I don't like tight clothing, and I don't like the clothes that are made for women, these days

I can't stand wearing skirts and dresses. They make me feel unprotected. Also if clothes aren't washed in my wash powder the smell of them drives me mad.

Tags make me crazy.And I can't wear socks that have too high of a percentage of synthetic fiber in them - it makes me feel really weird and like I can't breathe...then I realize it's the socks. I take them off and I'm fine.

I have a small frame but I always buy extra-large t-shirts. I never wear skirts or dressses and tights = HELL. I feel like I'm suffocatng in them. I think women's clothes are stupid. My t-shirts always have to cover my bum (ie be long enough), otherwise I'll give them away.

And high heels, wtf? I've never worn them in my life, they look lethal.

Since I grew up doing basic acrobatic gymnastics and dance, I'm accustomed to leotards and don't mind most tight fabrics as long as their "evenly tight" all over my body & have no jewels, etc. inside my joints.
