Meet Mary Ruth

My en femme name is Mary Ruth. As with many others, my first recollection of desiring to dress in girl’s clothes was when I was very, very young. In fact, I vividly recall the day.

Mary Ruth’s Crossdressing Success Story

As both of my parents worked outside of our home, my sisters and I were often cared for by a baby sitter. One day our sitter was helping me get dressed (that is how young I was!) and asked me which tee shirt I wanted to wear. She had two for me to select from. One with short sleeves and the other with very thin straps – just like the one my older sisters wore. In my heart I so desired the one like my sisters, but embarrassment stole the day. I selected the “boy’s” tee short.

With three sisters (one younger and two older), I have always had ample inventory of clothes to borrow (bras, panties, stockings, makeup, etc). The closes I ever came to going out dressed “en femme” was one Halloween when I was perhaps 8 years old. My sisters wanted to dress me as a girl for Halloween. I was overwhelmed with the idea. My two older sisters seemed to enjoy the transformation process. After a bit of work on their part, I was fully dressed, makeup and all. Then came the hour to go outside to meet our friends, and once again, embarrassment stole the day. I caved in at the thought of being teased by our friends for being dressed in “girl’s clothes.”

Throughout the years, as a situation would allow, I would dress en femme. Having to do this covertly, for fear of being caught, I only dressed in part. That is to say, as an adult, I have never dressed 100% en femme. I was forty years old when I purchased my first woman’s garment – a bra. Yes, I have made many purchases since then…and yes, I have later throw them out when the guilt took over!

I’ve been married for over 34 years and have a really great marriage. I did tell my wife about my CDing 8 years ago. It blew her away, to say the least. Even though she has tried to understand, she does not like the idea of it. So, I stay very deep in the closet. Fortunately, my wife is on a trip with her sisters. So, today I am 90% en femme (no wig and very little makeup). Yet, I am 100% enjoying the time to express myself 🙂

Thanks for reading,
Mary Ruth
