Why do you like crossdress?

I agree with Gabriela, there's lots of reasons why we do it and they definitely have changed along the road. At first when I was 10 it was curiosity and a little while later puberty kicked in and the sexual side of it came storming right on through. I don't think the sexual side ever goes away, it just manifests it's self differently. From full out arousal to just feeling sexy and wanting to look it.

Myself I don't consider it dressing up anymore, I just consider it me. This is who I am. I accepted myself quite a while back now and there isn't two personas now there is just me, Heather. About the only thing left of Bryan is the shell you see before you.

I too have an unaccepting wife, who I love very much and if it wasn't for that, I would live as a woman 24/7. I can't transition physically any further due to health issues, but I know who and what I am and that's all that matters to me.

Take care and a great topic. Thanks, Heather.

Hi Fiona
I believe you are the closest to being right. I do believe genetics has a lot to do with what we are. I love being Vicke. I love being a woman even if is part-time. If things had been different I might have gone all the way. The reason I feel genetics have a lot to do with the way we are is that my sister that I grew up with when we were young is now a man. Yes, she did go all the way. So now I have a Brother. I am 4 years older than my brother and I have been cross dress off and on all my life.
I hope this makes sence to you

Love X,

I think there are many different feelings and opinions as to why one may crossdress. For me, I’m the type that feels crossdressed in male clothing. It doesn’t fit right, ha material is far too heavy and on top of it all, I  have almost never found men’s shoes in my size other than converse lol.

I have dressed since I was 5 or so. Initially, it was a curiosity of “why cant I wear that?” Ive mentioned in the past that my family regarded me as pretty and beautiful. Not handsome. I think some of it stemmed from that when I was young and didn’t understand who I am inside. As I grew up, I realized men’s clothes don’t fit or feel right because 9 times out of 10, I don’t feel like a guy. I’m coming to a point in my life where I accept my biological sex but identity as something different entirely. It’s like I explained to my fiancé. I was born bi and can’t change that. Just like my sexual orientation, I was also born the way I am and I can’t change that about myself either.

For me, the clothes that I elect to wear are about expressing who I am and being true to who I am. I want to be comfortable.  Some days that is wearing men's clothes while others wearing women's cloths.  Though to be truly honest, my wardrobe is a mixture of the two.

Dressing up gives me a sense of freedom, allowes me to be that someone that is sexy, sassy, adventorous and lusty, yes I said it, lustful, it comes with the territory, it turns me on to turn someone on, but mostly I do it for me, it then comes what kind of occasion Im dressing up for, staying at home, going out, diner, movie, clubbing, staying at home, laying back, date or just plain playful, some ask me why I dress up with glam I say, why not?
Be sexy

I have crossdressed for about 55 years. From my perspective, it is a sexual drive that pushes me forward. I will vow to stop doing it-but back I come, time after time.

So, if society had been more accepting when I was young, I may have developed the joy and freedom that many on this site do express. But I have always dressed in secret and with a sexual overlay.

Recently, I have taken to dressing in front of escorts, who specialise in accepting crossdressers. I do not make love to them; the attraction is in their acceptance of the "other" me. They will give me dressing tips, make up lessons and, one of these days, I am hoping to go out with such a lady for a coffee.

Small victories in comparison with a lot of the girls on this site, and I'm sure, many will dissapprove

Jane,

Good for you! I get that times have and continue to change, but one should never be sorry for what they have done even if the results are not what was expected. It takes a lot of courage to follow ones heart and do something that many other won't or can't come to grips with. I'm impressed with the whole escort thing plus it is a great way to get insider tip and tricks 🙂 ! I do hope that you are able to have an outing as Jane someday.

Regards,

Katherine
