Yeah that's not... how it works, buddy. Fashion sense is still a thing. Personal comfort is still a thing. Are you okay???

Jay is precisely 0% interested in crossdressing himself. For him, it's uncomfortable, and not true to himself at all. There's also the issue of like—he doesn't really "believe in it", IN THAT people should just wear what they like anyway. I think Jay's a little too progressive to believe that any kind of clothing is "meant" for men or women, even being a man that was born in the 70s. Drag shows wouldn't be his thing because of the attitudes; while he respects it as a type of performance, it challenges his desire for authenticity when speaking to people. He doesn't want a "version" of someone, he wants them, and while you can argue that a drag queen is expressing their true self through their clothing, the same can't often be said for the cattiness that accompanies it, at least if we're talking about popular takes on drag queens and what it means to dress in drag (I'm aware there are a lot of people who take part in drag that're "true", but it's become very popular to "behave cuntily" in those spaces and Jay's not interested in that if it's not who you really are). That being said? He's VERY OPEN to people expressing themselves however they like, and doesn't look twice if a man is wearing "women's" clothes (women already have the privilege of being able to wear "men's" clothes so that's even less of a point). It's really not interesting to him. It's not a point of contention, he doesn't care. His opinions on it and not wanting to do it are personal to him, but that doesn't mean he begrudges anybody else for doing what they like to do! I truly don't think he'd even think to ask a man why he's wearing a skirt/dress; it'd probably be something they have to bring up first (which I can imagine isn't impossible, given how shitty people are about fashion and, in particular, men just doing what they want to do with it). I genuinely imagine his response to something generic like "Doesn't it bother you?" or "I thought you'd be mad/disgusted" would be something like, "Should it/I be?" TL;DR: Crossdressing/drag is not FOR Jay, but he loves it for YOU if that's what you want to do! EDIT: forgot to add that, for all intents and purposes, Jay HAS experienced crossdressing because he attends a lot of pride events throughout the years, and he's totally chill with that!

I think a pottery class would have a 50/50 chance to go either excellent or terribly for Jay, and there's no in-between. On the one hand, there's typically a lot of talkative people in pottery spaces because the craft itself takes time, so that'd be fun for him, but on the other? His impatience is likely to get in the way. He also knows it factually isn't dirt, but given his aversion to mess in general, being the neat freak he is, I see him genuinely hating the texture of the clay.
