DEAR DEIDRE: I SPEND a fortune on my work clothes but not the suits and shirts. It’s women’s underwear that I love.

I’m a single man of 45. I work in an insurance office.

No issue is too small, too large or too embarrassing. Read our personal replies here.

I’ve always loved lingerie and recently I spent £60 on a whole range of knickers, including thongs and frilly Brazilian pants.

I love the feel of them against my skin. I sometimes wear tights or even stockings, all under my suit trousers.

I’m a straight man. I have no interest in men but I’ve never had a relationship with a woman.

Every problem gets a personal reply, usually within 24 hours weekdays.

You can also send a private message on the DearDeidreOfficial Facebook page.

I long for somebody to catch me and sometimes hope a little lace might show over my trousers and someone will see my underwear.

Am I weird or is this normal behaviour?

DEIDRE SAYS: You’re certainly not the only man in the world who enjoys wearing women’s underwear.

And it isn’t uncommon for cross-dressing men to want to be “discovered”.

What is important to remember is that this is part of you. You’re not doing anyone any harm.
