Hello all, I am from New Orleans, Louisiana.

Hey Jessi

Love the name!

Welcome to CDH. You'll find that this is a very friendly, welcoming and supportive place. I hope you'll love it here as much as I have since signing up at the beginning of July.

No brothers for me, but two older sisters ... so there was always a ready supply of clothes when I was growing up. No-one ever found out, but when I came out to one of my sisters last month I told her all about it. I'd always felt a bit guilty about wearing her clothes but it turns out that, had she known, she would have actually helped!

There's loads to explore here. Have fun, and if you need anything just shout 🙂

Hugs

Hi Jessi,

Welcome to CDH.

Hello Jessi welcome to CDH I am glad you have shared a part of who you are. Having found us you have made the step to become part of a family that is welcoming, understanding, compassionate, and supportive. While we are all similar and have many of the same desires we all differ on our goals or level of public expression and or personal experiences. I encourage you to explore the many forums, topics, polls and member biographies found here as there are a wide range of members all over the spectrum of feminine expression from differing levels of crossdressing to those on the path to transition and those that have. There are also links to websites that have products and services that may help you on your own personal path of self acceptance and expression. Ultimately it is a place, home, or space were you can feel feel comfortable and confident in who you are that you are not alone and this is a place where you can feel safe to express and share part of yourself as being who you truly are as your authentic self of you being a man, and a woman, a man who dresses as a woman, if it makes you a better complete human being expressing your feminine desires feelings and or qualities. I am happy you are here and have made a choice to accept this part of yourself as self acceptance is the most important thing you can do for yourself and others. You can’t expect others to accept you if you don’t accept yourself all of you. As you are sharing a part of your authentic self here on CDH it ultimately lifts some of the burden that you may be feeling which many of us have carried for what seems like a lifetime you are not alone. Being here helps not only yourself but helps others gain acceptance and confidence. I am happy you have made the step to be here. Welcome!

Hi Jessi, I haven't logged into CDH for a few days, so I'm only just seeing this.

Just wanted to say Hi, and welcome to CDH. I'm also from NOLA, but now living just across the parish line in Metairie.

I'd like to extend an invitation to you to join our CDH "Local Chapter" called the Bayou Belles. Have a look, and if it's something you'd like to be a part of, click the "REQUEST MEMBERSHIP" and join up!

Hi Jessi!
This is my first day here so I really know how it feels to be in a new place. Your background is so similar to my own, so always know that you are not alone out there. Hope to chat with you a lot about growing up in an incredibly conservative household and not being caught. Don't really know how I survived those years. Take care and hope to hear from you again real soon.
Hugs,
Rita

Welcome to CDH, Jessi!

I've sent my request for bayou belles. I look forward to talking to some locals hopefully to be real good friends.

Thank you for the message!

Well, Jessi, guess what?! You are now the newest member of the Bayou Belles!

Thanks you so much for being part of our Group.

Hi Jessi. As a UK member of CDH, I've noticed that quite a few Southern girls are active on this site. Is there something in the water? Anyhow, welcome to CDH, it's a lot of fun.
