Reply To: Has crossdressing helped you clarify your gender identity?

[Emily Alt]

Like many of us, I grew up when any deviation from the binary was viewed with extreme prejudice.  I learned that harsh lesson when I was 4 years old.

Crossdressing was the clarion call for the life I was meant to live.  Of course there were plenty of other signs.  But crossdressing was the most obvious.

Ironic that the clothes I wear became less important once I started living authentically.  Now I’m chasing experiences.

I can only wonder what might have been had I figured it out decades earlier.  Better late than never.
