Maria loves her whiskey and tequila, let’s get that out there. Maria also loves music, Sci-fi, and her cats. But most of all, Maria loves her SO very dearly.

Captain Dionysus
Managing Editor
Captain Dionysus is focused on content development, site functionality, and providing a range of writings on subjects of interest to members. Captain Di is gender expansive, whose current path has Cap trying to balance masculine and feminine energies. With a past history of many crossdressing adventures, illness and disability have made fully dressed outings no longer part of the program. Hoping that our sites can become an online hub for transgender and the full spectrum of gender variations, Cap welcomes your feedback and ideas on how we can achieve this goal.

Kayla is a genetic girl (GG) from Kansas City with two awesome grown sons and a beautiful baby granddaughter! She is in a relationship with a CD whom she loves very much. After spending some time here, she found lots of support and when the opportunity arose to become an ambassador she dove in with both feet. Offering friendship, support, and a listening ear, she helps other SOs to learn more about their relationships while at the same time offering the rest of the members who are CD/TG/TS a perspective on how to help their SOs to understand them and maintain a good relationship!

Assistant Manager
Member Greetings and Profiles
A lifetime Midwest Girl, Rhonda grew up in Iowa on a Farm. She moved to Kansas City Missouri in 1980. Coming to crossdressing rather late in life, she was in her late 40`s before taking that fateful step. Of her style, she says, “I am an all or nothing dresser. When I dress it`s the works; makeup, clothes, shoes, wig, etc.” When going out, she mostly sticks to known safe venues with others like herself. She is quite happy on the CD/TG/TS spectrum in the “gender fluid” zone, comfortable in both male and female modes, and has no plans to go full time or transition. An outdoors girl, she’s a short drive from the city to Lake of the Ozarks and the beautiful clear spring-fed rivers in Southern Missouri.Rhonda is also an Assistant Manager in charge of the Member Greetings and Profile teams.

Sabrina MacTavish
Resident Editor
Brina is from Iowa, and she is steadily learning how to merge her two halves into one whole. Mostly, still closeted after 40 years, she hopes to one day walk freely and confidently in the open. She spends most of her time working as a self-published novelist under both personas. The ability to connect through words and the emotions and feelings they can confer are what drives Brina to help others in presenting their stories. “There’s something about sharing a piece of yourself to others that is almost therapeutic. We are not alone.” Brina believes that being kind to ourselves and others is the most important thing we can do to find the calm within us.
Codille Benton
Managing Ambassador Emeritus
From just outside Baltimore, Maryland, Codille (aka CB) has been crossdressing since she was 13 with no sights on transitioning. Married for 20+ years, she plans to be outfitting herself and her wife forever. She is a friend to all in the CDH community. Since joining Crossdresser Heaven, she has grown more comfortable with who she is as a person and where her place in the world may be than any previous time in her life. In the three years since finding Crossdresser Heaven, she has gone from hidden deep in the closet with only a few knowing to now being out to her kids, other family members, and friends by the dozens. These days, she has the confidence to live in her own skin and help anyone that reaches out to her for friendship and support like never before. She feels that the members and friends she has met and made on CDH changed her world forever and is eternally thankful God has allowed her to find and help be a part of building this amazing site to what it is today. She was our very first Managing Ambassador. Now, having passed that torch along, she now holds the lofty title of Managing Ambassador Emeritus and is head of our Ambassador recruitment effort.

K so coming straight out of Idaho (spud and stud) land comes Jackie “Wild Child” Wild. Been at this dressing thing since 10 with no thoughts of quitting anytime soon. Love the outdoors, being a drag queen on top of being a cross dresser, life in general, helping others and adore my family. Came to CDH out of curiosity, decided to stick around awhile and here is where I remain.

She currently lives in Southern Maryland, but still considers Michigan home. She has been dressing on and mostly off since her teens, but has recently decided to embrace all of who she is. With the blessing and support of her loving wife, she is exploring the balance between her femininity and masculinity. She may not know where this journey will take her, but she is going to enjoy the adventure.

I guess that I would say that my main asset is that I have some very different points of view when compared to most other crossdressers. I believe that the common notion to separate the “Feminine side” from the rest of our personas only leads to a total loss of balance which will reflect in our personal relationships.. Life is much more than whatever you may be wearing. I am a crossdresser, but I’m much more than a crossdresser. I have had the chance to do pretty much anything I ever wanted to do, been able to meet many of my friends in person, interact with all sorts of people. And this has helped me understand that I am happy being me. Wearing a dress or jeans and a flannel shirt, it is only me, all the time.

I’m 56 year old cd/tg still not sure where i fall and only fully dressed for the first time in 2006. Married and love to be a feminine as much as possible. Enjoy my femininity every time I get to be Sara. I dress and go out about 1 a month to my group meeting and dinner afterwards. I so enjoy my time as Sara.

I have been a closeted CD since my teens, underdressing for years. In Sept 2015 I chose to venture out in public. So fearful yet excited. Now I wear only women’s clothing everyday and night. Never tried to pass just be comfortable wearing tops and pants, flats. Love my painted nails, pageboy hairdo and some makeup.

I have been a long term cross dresser but I’ve only recently admitted it to my wife. I like to dress up as a youngish woman and enjoy wearing pretty clothes and smelling nice. it would be nice to chat to like-minded people like myself as its such a difficult subject to broach with non cross dressers. I consider myself a friendly, easy going person that cares about others and my fellow cross dressers. please don’t hesitate to send a friends request if you wish, I would enjoy to chat sometime and make new friends.

I really don’t know where I’m going with this all, but certainly do know HOW I’m getting there. We all have to choose a place to sit and I guess I’ve chosen “gender-fluid”. There are things in both genders that have GREAT value to me and I intend to enjoy them all to their maximum potential.
I am currently on a quest of self-acceptance and discovery. Kansas City-Denver-Omaha I visit all and live in none.

Hi, I’m Sheryl from the Latrobe Valley, Gippsland, Victoria, Australia.
I am 64 and have been cross dressing since I was very young and only in the last few years have I realised that I am transgender. I have felt as if I should have been born female for most of my life but did not know why.

Stephanie Flowers
Ambassador
Greetings
From the province of Ontario , and only now discovering crossdressing late in her 50’s . A lover of the outdoors , and enjoys photography. Family of 4 kids , 6 grandkids and a loving and supportive wife. Only started dressing most recently and now has reached fully dressed with makeup and final touches still ahead . Still learning and exploring the journeys that is laid before her with little hope for transitioning in these years of life . A shy and quiet girl , A { Flower Child } in ways but always trying to help many looking for guidance and in turn searching for her feminine paths and ways . To understand her feelings and seek the answers as she continues forward. For all CDH has given her, all the more she wants to give back, to welcome love ones to a community that loves and cares to all that passes. Being a CDer is a wonderful state of mine and balance now and the future to hold these lifelong dreams and follow a passion she loves.

The Original Cyn, or OC for short. Cynthia is from Richmond Virginia who crossdresses every day (lucky gal!) and has a knack for tracking down niggling technical issues so we can fix them’ . She is also on a journey of self-examination to figure out where her feminine journey will lead her, and is always willing to talk with others about their feelings and questions or her own.

Hails from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. She has been crossdressing since age 12 with off and on activity till she was age 27 when she first fully dressed. After that she knew it was going to be a lifelong obsession. Tries to dress several times a month but sometimes life gets in the way. No worries though, her sense of humor gets her through just about anything. Has the box set of all the Monty Python episodes too.
Sarah Daniels
Ambassador

Sarah is 47, an Electrical Fitter, a petrol head, a Wannabe writer and a husband. She’s a fantasy and sci-fi fiend and will read or watch almost anything from those genres. Sarah is a closeted CD, but slowly stepping out of that boundary (early days yet) but has been dressing for as long as she can recall (since 5 or 6) in one way or another. “I’m not sure the title CD fits or that of TG; I’m somewhere in the middle and tend to float back and forth as my mood dictates.” She lives in Canterbury, New Zealand with her wife (who knows about her CDing but not about Sarah – sadly it’s a long slow road to acceptance).

Freshly minted CD, but now realize I am better described as a Two Spirit. Finally free to be me and find my inner peace. A professional with two personalities and sexualities.
Marianne
Associate Editor
How do you envision an Ice Princess from the cold and snowy Sweden? Mouse brown, short sighted and slightly over weight? Hey, at least my eyes are blue!
Marianne T, or simply M, is a 50+ woman who loves to wear heels to dresses and skirted outfits in classy feminine styles, but for convenience has to pretend being male in loafers and skinny stretch jeans with a top and sweater most of the time. She loves to read and do all sorts of crafts like sewing, woodwork and book binding. She also plays the piano and does a tiny little bit of composing when inspiration hits.
Considering herself partly a girl from early childhood, and with about 35 years of crossdressing experience, Marianne finally decided to show the world the woman that she was in the fall of 2012, after finding out she had come up with Parkinson’s Syndrome in the early summer. If she was to decide by herself she would go for living full time as a woman, but family and work situation just don’t make it feasible for the moment.
Being both transgender and crossdresser, Marianne shares her time in the community between CDH and TGH, appearing almost daily in chat and Forums and also keeping an eye on the pending articles as a member of the Editorial Team. She is warm and welcoming, with genuine love and compassion for all of her sisters, and she openheartedly shares her experiences with all whom may listen.
April

Aka Showers lives in Seattle. She’s crossdressed since about the age of 7, but took a 30+ year hiatus from dressing when first married and while her kids were around. She started again when the nest was empty and has been out an about dressed half a dozen times, and finally likes who she is. Only dresses once or twice a week, but she’s a bit of a perfectionist and loves going “all out” when she does. April sees herself as a late bloomer, and she doesn’t know where her journey is going, but she plans on enjoying the ride!

Dropping out of high school I began touring in the Canadian country music scene at age 17; clubs and soft seat venues, drummer/vocalist for 22 years.
After 4 suicide attempts and heavy cocaine etc addiction issues, i decided to learn Self-Acceptance as apposed to self-hatred.
I became a student of the Universe and an Instructor of Life Skills at a local College while operating a Private Coaching Practice.
Currently, I am rebuilding the Life Coaching practice after a couple years of more personal work well under way.
I am also creating online opportunities that will serve our world community…and our world in understanding how I learned the life skills of Intentionally and Consciously Creating an Amazing Life filled with Passion, Purpose & Prosperity…

I’ve been married 30 yrs and have 2 grown children. Born and raised in WV and have lived in OH and now VA. I’ve been dressing since a teen, but only very sporadically until I came out to my wife in 2016. Smartarsedness (is that a word?) is a way of life and I love to inject humor and laughter into everything.
