Hint about underwear switcheroo first

Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: My wife and I have been married for a while, and I recently realized I want to try wearing women's underwear. Just putting them on for her and showing her before making love, not full cross-dressing or wearing them out in public. However, I don't think it would go over well if I suggested it, and I couldn't just surprise her by wearing some to the bedroom (she would likely be mortified).

Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: My wife and I have been married for a while, and I recently realized I want to try wearing women’s underwear. Just putting them on for her and showing her before making love, not full cross-dressing or wearing them out in public. However, I don’t think it would go over well if I suggested it, and I couldn’t just surprise her by wearing some to the bedroom (she would likely be mortified).

It would be better if somehow she would suggest it, but that would almost certainly never happen. Do you have any ideas about what I can possibly do to help warm her up to the idea?

— Interested in Undies, Downtown

 

Dear Interested in Undies: This is your interest, and I’m guessing you’ve experimented alone and maybe for while. You might frame this as a story about someone you know who did this and told you about it, and he said his wife doesn’t know what to think. You could discuss it a bit with her, and get around to asking what she would think if you did that? She will probably be getting suspicious by then, so let the discussion go and let her mind will work on it.

If she says in a further discussion she probably wouldn’t mind, the worst thing you could do would be to get too excited and say, “Well, that someone is me — let’s try it right now!” Just say casually that you have also been thinking about it, too.

This needs to sift slowly through her brain, not be shoved at her, even if she says she thinks she wouldn’t mind. And it’s not a one-way road. In preparation, you need to ask her what some of her wildest fantasies are, and be willing to help her fulfill those. A kind of trade. If she’s just doing this thing for you, and nothing for her, it might be a turn off. She’s losing some of the fun of your male-female dynamic. But, if she’s really experimental, you might want to have a night of experimentation both ways, with dinner and a little bubbly to loosen your inhibitions.

Winnipeg, police and downtown crime

Editorial 3 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

A safer downtown is not much use if people are still afraid to walk there.

That is the uncomfortable message from Winnipeg’s latest police citizen survey, and one city council should take seriously.

Downtown crime has fallen this year, according to the most recent police statistics. Violent crime is down even more. But for most Winnipeggers, the downtown still feels like a place to avoid, particularly after dark.

Only 44 per cent of survey respondents said they feel very or reasonably safe walking alone downtown during the day. At night, that number plunges to just eight per cent. Among women, it is an appalling three per cent, compared with 14 per cent of men.

Man, 21, killed in animal attack on Manitoba First Nation

Chris Kitching 5 minute read Monday, Sep. 14, 2026

The family of “a kind and gentle giant” is grief-stricken as officials try to determine what kind of animal killed the 21-year-old man in western Manitoba.

Moses Campeau was walking on a road to a friend’s house in Sapotaweyak Cree Nation, about 600 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg, when he was fatally injured Sept. 9, his mother, Paula Campeau, said Monday.

“Moses was a kind and gentle giant,” she said. “He was a person who (people) would ask to come and help them, and he would go without even hesitating.”

Manitoba RCMP said officers from the Swan River detachment responded to a report of a suspicious death at about 3:10 a.m. The scene was held and the RCMP’s major crime services took over the investigation.

Letters, Sept. 16

Say what you’ll do

I must say that I agree with what Laura Reimer wrote (What do we elect a school trustee to do?, Think Tank, Sept. 12).

I would add, though, that school trustees and school board candidates also have a responsibility to clearly state where they stand on issues in order for people to come out and vote in school board elections.

Simply putting out very generic campaign material (“I’ll work hard on your behalf”; “I live in the area”; “education is important”; and so on …) is insufficient to generate interest or to motivate taxpayers/voters to go out and support candidate X.

Food literacy curriculum on the menu

Maggie Macintosh 4 minute read 2:01 AM CDT

Manitoba has a new recipe for health class and “food literacy” is a key ingredient.

The in-class portion of phys-ed has historically involved lessons about puberty, the risks of consuming drugs and dissecting Canada’s food guide.

A new pilot program asks teachers to expand their nutrition units and include in-depth discussions about how everything from diet culture to food insecurity affects eating habits.

“This is really moving beyond a conception of food as only fuel, where you just boil down food to its calories, its vitamins,” said Sarah Elvins, a food historian at the University of Manitoba who researches popular culture and marketing.

You can’t hold a government accountable for what it won’t let you see.

That is the uncomfortable lesson from the dispute between Progressive Conservative health critic Kathleen Cook and Prairie Mountain Health over her recent attempt to visit the Dauphin Regional Health Centre.

Cook wanted to see the temporary emergency department that reopened Sept. 7 after flooding forced the hospital to close in July. She wanted to speak with officials about the reopening, the challenges they were facing and the work still required.

Prairie Mountain Health said no.

Winnipeg, economic diversity and risks from AI

Al Vigier 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

I run a company that builds software to read documents and fill out forms. When I look at Winnipeg, I see a lot of potential customers. I also think the city should be asking some fairly uncomfortable questions about what companies like mine are selling.

Winnipeg has spent decades building an economy that does not depend on any one industry. Insurance, agriculture, transportation, aerospace, manufacturing, government, health care. That mix has served it well. A bad year for one employer does not necessarily become a bad year for the whole city.

But there is another way to look at that economy: what people actually do when they arrive at work.

Great-West Lifeco, Wawanesa, IGM Financial and Manitoba Public Insurance are all headquartered in Winnipeg. There are provincial departments, Shared Health and businesses handling the freight moving through CentrePort. Their purposes are different. A surprising amount of their paperwork follows the same routine.
