Has Crossdressing made you a better person?

I think it has for me. It's made me think differently, and deeper, about a lot of things. I also think I'm kinder and more understanding of people who are different from me. I probably would have said I was already all of those things, but I think the experience of exploring this aspect of myself has had benefits.

Yes, Yes, YES!!!  Not the most subtle way of saying it, but so, so true...  Holly XXX

Yes, I'm a much happier and contended person now after coming out to the wife years ago. She has even commented on how peaceful I am now and I don't get depressed like I used to. I would get anxious and depressed when I was in the closet because of that hidden persona we all carry with us like an electronic ankle bracelet never letting us forget its there and never free of it. If you can find some way to embrace your fem self it will change your life.

Maybe better and different for sure.  For one thing, l can relate, I think a lot better as to how GGs feel when they want to go out to a place where you can dress for the occasion.  I never understood all the trouble that  that entailed, as a male, but as a female, I can understand just the thrill of putting all of it together.  I am a better person for having seen how both males and females feel when they are all dressed up.  I can say for sure that if I have a choice to go out in a suit and tie, or a nice dress, I’d for sure pick the dress.

I’ve also noticed more of a calmness to me that has started to take hold because I can now express myself whenever I want to.  I am really free to be a woman whenever the urge hits me, not when the right situation presents itself.  I am only inhibited by my own fears for doing what I do, but am trying to cope to overcome those too.  Maybe someday!

For me, I do not think it has made me a better person. Instead, I feel like this is an addiction, and it is taken away from my important relationships in my life. Although I do love doing it.

Hi Fiona
I personally do think it makes you a nicer person, I have found myself more eager to listen to other people and there problems and things that bother them. I always feel more relaxed and chilled out when en femme, I have also noticed people are more willing to chat and open up.

In a very few words,  coming out as a cross dresser and going out in public cross dressed has allowed me to be my authentic self and is an essential vital part of my recovery program from alcoholism.

I think I am. Since I am out to a higher degree than most here and much more than I ever expected I would EVER be. My nails are painted all day every day weather in male mode or fem mode. I use that to compliment many ladies on their nails. Often in female mode I give compliments on hair,tops, shoes/boots and hair color/styles. Now I notice these things more than ever.

Does it make me a better person in general? I think so. I tend to be a lot more empathetic and sensitive to the feelings of others. The women in my life probably appreciate the fact that I do not act like the stereotypical male. (they don't know) As for myself, dressing has given me a sense of peace and accomplishment with respect to growing my feminine side. I no longer experience the guilt and self loathing that I used to. I accepted and truly made friends with the woman staring back at me in the mirror. I love this part of myself instead of being confused about it.

I'd say yes. I believe I am more happy, I help the people I know more, I agree to listen to others more, I take better care of myself hun, I can cheer up people using female dialogue, I'm more careful with my nail, especially after getting a manicure and pedicure girlfriend. So I am glad I am a crossdresser that wants to evolve even more honey.

I think being in touch with my feminine side aka crossdressing does make me a better person. As much as I think my wife would disapprove of my crossdressing she loves my sensitivity and the fact that I like to cook and clean the house. There is no doubt in my mind that it has made me better person. It’s just a shame she wouldn’t appreciate me cleaning the house in a French maid outfit.

Hi girls,

I don't think it has...I KNOW IT HAS!! I am a trans woman and dressing everyday has had such a positive effect upon my life that even my doctor and my cardiologist have noticed the difference.
At work, where I transitioned, my co workers say that I'm so much happier and full of joy that they can't even remember who I was before.

Big hugs girls,
