Welcome to Crossdresser Heaven, a safe and welcoming place for everyone in the crossdresser community.
Join Crossdresser Heaven today to participate in the forums.
As we say goodbye to 2024, let us look ahead to 2025 as a year of finding. What we find may be all we need or what we dream of as possibilities. Our journey is our own, yet it comes with similarities to the many who call this site home. This is where we come to find answers, to be inspired by others, and to be an inspiration. What we have to share helps so many others. We don’t necessarily see it happen. Not everyone is an active participant. Many are visitors who need to read what we have written, see the pictures posted, or follow along in conversations. It’s enough; enough for them. What they seek is the understanding that they aren’t alone.
Personally, I wish to thank all of you who have allowed me to share my thoughts with you in the many articles I have posted. Your comments are rewards that I look forward to reading and responding to. Writing is my therapy, as is sharing it. Some of you who have commented on the many posts should (And I am inviting you to do so! 😊) consider submitting your own article. There are editors on staff who can help with the flow and grammar, you only need to get it written down (500 words minimum and no longer than 1,200) and sent in. Sharing your story, your progression, your past, your victories, your tribulations, and your uncertainties benefits all of us. Those who comment add to the conversation, but those who are the readers or visitors are the ones most helped by what we share. It makes a difference!
If you have followed me, you know that I write about kindness to others and especially to ourselves. That will be my search this year, and hopefully, my mantra as I look to step out more. Please consider sharing some of your happenings with us. We stay away from politics, religion, hate, overt sexuality, and discrimination as themes. Think PG when writing. Share experiences: going out in public, coming out to a spouse, family, or friend, what we’ve learned from our past that we hope others might benefit from, helpful suggestions on how to do makeup, dress, find clothing and accessories, what has worked and what didn’t for you. Consider sharing the breakthroughs and the heartaches. Nothing is off the table as long as it has something to do with being a crossdresser or transgender. What it needs to be is personal and not fiction. There are other places that you can go to post fabrications. Go to Author/ New article to begin your submission.
If you have questions, please send me a PM. I hope to see one of your articles soon! May you have a wonderful year ahead!

Thanks again, Brina. I whole heartedly agree, CDH has been a HUGE inspiration to me. Without it I would be so deep in the closet instead of out as Cassie full time now.
For now most of my sharing is done in the forums, planning and writing an article is more than I can do sometimes.

Thank you for all you do Brina, wishing you a very happy new year x x
Hi Brina, first happy new year!
The more people who write, the better. It's a wonderful experience that I highly recommend: writing here is as pleasurable as crossdressing, I will do my best to continue.
I thank you and all the publishers for maintaining this space.
I invite everyone to read my articles.
Happy New Year, Brina.Thanks for your invitation.
The year that just ended finally allowed me to share my experiences in two articles (Before I had limited myself to forums and poems) and I must confess that it was a wonderful experience. It helps me to grow up. The comments were very motivating, especially those who told me that my writings had served as inspiration. I had no idea that it could have that result. What I shared was a learning experience in my life and a need to communicate with the community. I want to express my deep gratitude to those who gave me feedback. I would also like to give a very special thanks to Stephanie Flowers, who, at the CDH meeting in Keystone, engaged me to write about my experience during the conference.
Your guidance, Brina, and April King's editing work were very valuable and contributed to making these articles better and successful.
I am very grateful to you. I look forward to sharing more experiences with my sisters.
I invite everyone to read or reread my articles and, if you wish, share your opinions with me.
"Don"t get me started." I love to write! Right now I don't have a topic in mind but I've already been posting here a lot. I can't tell you how many posts and articles I've read and thought, "Hey, that's me!" or something to that effect. Everyone's story is a little different, surely, but there are many common threads to our experiences. It helps a lot, knowing there's someone out there who has gone through some of what I and others have. I can honestly say it has been a help to me already.
Along with opening up several more cans of worms...
It's all good. It's helping to mediate the ongoing battle between my two "selves". I'm not suffering from a personality disorder, at least not that I know of, but there are two distinct and powerful halves to my inner workings. Not quite a 50/50 ratio, though, because I can only be Rayna a small percentage of the time, and my male self lives a very full and active life. I need to find a workable balance somehow, and I'm not sure at the moment what that might entail.
But I'll be okay.
Rayna
I've really been glad of somewhere to post articles, which I'm doing as a kind of series, and the feedback has been great.
This community certainly is an inspirational one! As I look back over the last few years, I can't imagine how I could have gotten to this place in my journey without CDH!!
Thank you for all of your efforts,
Lara
Thank you for sharing your journey Brina, and inspiring others to share theirs!
The articles are much beloved by members of Crossdresser Heaven, and I hear how much they have helped members on a regular basis.
Thank you dear!
My posts tend to be long winded, but I do enjoy writing. I’ve been thinking about writing an article recording some of my thoughts from these first few months of exploring this new experience.
There are a lot of good writers on this site but some are even unsure with their pen name , perhaps similar to what I see on the local site one of us pose a topic, what do you think of you posting the topic and allow those of us to submit an article if chosen or several are chosen you editors can take the best answers for and against( if that is the chosen format), you could then compile the individual answers into a single article composed of the like minded as a single composition unbiased - I do believe AI could assist substantially with that in fact it would not be that complicated to use it as a modern day dear Abby of a sort. then you could input all the responses and the AI could give you an article all of its one, i would be very interested to see AI's unbiased rendering of that. I believe you are in the unique position to make that happen without a huge workload or change. Ij's just a thought.... maybe even original 😉
Thanks Brina! Happy 2025.
