      Keen to know when you girls decided to wear a full outfit, either around the house or out.

      I definitely started full clothes and makeup in my pre-teen years but then dropped most of it by 15 or 16 until a short stint at the end of my 20’s and finally starting again last year (52 now). Underdressing since my early 20’s has been constant though.

      The first two periods were strictly around the house and by myself. The last one has included a few walks and drives and around my wife at home. If this pandemic ever lets up I hope to get out to an event of some kind where I can dress in relative safety.

      I think I started around 16 but not full outfits. I started with lingerie, upgraded with some thight pants and later shoes.

      By age five, I had my own female wardrobe and was going out in public on a regular basis, generally weekends, holidays, and during the summer.  I was living a dual life, since I attended school as a boy and had male friends.  However, it was female relatives and two special girls close to my age who “coached” me in the ways of being a female.

      I would always volunteer to play a girl’s part, if we were putting on a school production of some sort, which was viewed as being talented or funny.

      Space does not allow for my detailed story, but suffice to say the urge to express my female self was present from a very early tender age, and I was very blessed to have available some very willing and able women to “teach” me the skills of how to be an effective female.

        Hi Peggy Sue

        You were very lucky to have people to support and guide you through the early years. I know that since joining CDH just over a week ago, my femme confidence has soared and my determination to be a woman is getting stronger by the day. To have that help and support from an early age must have been amazing and I applaud all those involved.

        I would love to hear your story, especially more about the skills of how to be an effective female and how you coped mentally during those young days.

        Love
        Michelle

      Hi Emily

      I had 3 older sisters and no brothers. As money was tight in those days, I had to wear their hand me downs, including underwear, as well as wearing nighties, dresses and skirts when at home. Boy clothes were only to be used when outside or when non family members were in the house. My sisters at various ages, also got the dressing up bug, so right up to my early teens I was being dressed up by one or all 3 of them. Little do they know, that I loved every second of it and was still wearing their clothes, even when I now had boy clothes of my own. I think I enjoyed my oldest sister’s first bra, more than she did.

      As I grew older my sisters moved out and that was the end of my dressing, apart from putting on my ex-partner’s clothes every now and then, when she wasn’t about of course.

      Now I am single, my dressing urges have gone through the roof and with each passing day, I have come to realise that its not just dressing as a woman is not enough. I want to be a woman in every way that I possibly can (without surgery) and live my life as I choose to and not how I am supposed to.

      Love
      Michelle

      • #611007

        I agree that being single makes your desire for femininity go through the roof! I’ve spent a lot of time on my own in the last few years and the mixture has probably been bubbling away…until it finally exploded!

    • #606390

      Started dressing as a girl at 5 in the privacy of my room. I would borrow a yellow chiffon party dress, white tights, and black Mary Jane shoes from my sisters closet. I would pretend I was a girl. At age 10 I begged my mother to allow me to go to a Halloween party as a girl. Between my pleading and crying I convinced her to buy me my own clothes for my costume. It was complete with panties, training bra, slip, panty hose, red dress with white polka-dots, blonde wig, and full make-up. I was such a pretty girl and received many compliments from my friends and their mothers. I was allowed to keep my new clothes in my room and dressed often. Once I had outgrown them a couple of years later I began to wear my sisters and mother’s things. In cub scouts I always volunteered to play the girls parts in our skits and plays which required my mom to buy me some additional dresses, skirts, etc to complete my character. I loved performing and being seen as a girl. By the time I was in high school and had a drivers license I started buying my own  clothes and going out in public by driving around and window shopping. I guess I was about 15 by then.   I have always loved dressing as a girl and being out in public.

        Although it has been many years, I can recall in the Cub Scouts, a significant number of boys who took great pleasure, self included, in playing the female parts in various skits and plays.  It was always the same group of boys who would volunteer to play the female parts, and would readily volunteer to dress up for any event, just for another chance to wear female clothing.

        Fortunately, in my case, I did not have to depend only on the Cub Scouts for a chance to cross dress.

        My point?  I think many, if not all, of these boys were already dedicated cross dressers, for life.

      I have an older sister, a younger sister, and a mother who loved dresses. So I loved when I had the house alone. I can remember getting fully dressed and standing in front of the mirror looking  at the girl looking back at me. That was a long time ago and I didn’t understand what was going on, a lot of confusion.

      It wasn’t long, maybe six months, between the first time I fully dressed, makeup and all, around the age of 50, and the first time I went out in public, fully dressed.

      I’ve been dressing with lingerie since forever but was deep in the closet with no opportunity to dress fully until about middle age when I got my first skirt and blouse. Heels were my last item to complete the total package and that wasn’t until I could order my size online.

    • #606596

      While my sisters dressed me as a girl when I was 3 to 6 years, it was when I was 12 that I first dressed fully in my sisters clothes.

      My first time was wearing my mothers lingerie. It was also the year that I found out that I was not as well endowed as all the other boys my own age. Her stockings garter belts and bras made me feel so happy. She never knew  but as I got older I would buy things to wear around the house. I still love to wear my lingerie whenever I get a chance to.

    • #606637

      I tried girls underwear and bras through my teen years.  In my early 20’s my wife accepted and I wore lingerie around her and while having sex. 

      After divorce I started to acquire female clothing and would fully dress and walk the neighberhood at night, sometimes teasing passing pickup truck drivers with a lifted skirt.

      It’s been many years and how I have a very large wardrobe with dresses, skirts, tops, coats, wigs, oodles of bras and more. I pride myself in preparing myself to portrait a feminine self, both appearance wise and mannerisms.  I take anywhere from 2 to 3 hours to prepare with breast forms, pads and makeup. I love going shopping and browsing all things feminine. The only problem is that just gives me the urge to buy more. Now I know why girls have so many clothes.  There is so much feminine, sexy stuff to choose from.

      I would never go through a sex change because I love women not men.  But I love portaiting a women and feminine and as sexy as can be.

      Remember girls, attitude and study real girls. And wear perfume.

      I was on my way to school – a normal teenage boy without a care in the world. I then ran into bullies who would often taunt me about my weight. They explained to me what was missing from my uniform and made it clear that saying “no” wasn’t an option. I walked through the school gates a few minutes later in a state of shock at what I was now having to wear. For the next four years, I’ll bet I was the only schoolboy in Britain whose school uniform included a firm control panty girdle.

      Like so many others I started young, went in and out of dressing up, but I think I was around 40 (25+ years ago) when I started adding outer clothes to the lingerie I wore. Though it wouldn’t be till I was nearly 65 that I finally did what I’d wanted to for years, to go out completely en femme.

      I’ve mentioned this before, as around age 4 or 5 (I’m fairly certain it was the summer of either of the years back then) I asked my mother to make me a full body dress which she did and I wore it for an afternoon outside until it tore, or whatever, as she made it out of kraft paper.  I vaguely remember another moment perhaps 3 or 4 years later where I tried to dress a little.  My first experience actually trying on a dress – besides undergarments – was around 15, sort of a brown polka dot party dress (full skirted) circa late 50’s, early 60’s.

      Hi Emily,

      The oldest category for me. Late to the party as usual. Until recently it was bits and pieces and androgynous clothes, which is still the case for outdoors.

      For indoors, I’ve started to assemble something approaching a wardrobe. I’m not quite sure what a ‘full outfit implies, but I’m getting there I hope.

      I started wearing lingerie at a very young age. It wasn’t until I got married that I started to fully dress in my wifes dresses.  I found the more I totally feminized myself the more I was enjoying it.

      I just started buying skirts, dresses, and leggings a few years ago. That lead to shoes, and of course lingerie.  I just  suddenly wanted to wear women’s clothes and feel feminine in my late 50’s.
      A few years later I can’t seem to stop thinking about the next time I can dress, or what new outfits would look good on me.

        Most start with lingerie and then progress from there.

            Hi Lara

            I would love to dress 20-30, they have much more choice and are skimpier, but no amount of make-up, would let me pull it off.

            I dress 35-50. I love the elegance, style and accessories.

            I can’t pull it off at all. So far I have only played a tiny bit with makeup. With disastrous results. My dressing is an at home alone kind of thing. If I could look good enough to go out, I would change the style to something much more conservative so as not to attract attention.
            For now it’s just too fun not to wear minis, and tight leggings, and walk around in stiletto heels!

      I was spending a summer with a Mom and her two older teen girls, and once I revealed interest they took to dressing me up frequently, making me the little sister they did not have. It was the one of the best summers of my childhood, to say the least. Once I was home, my opportunities were very limited, and I did not have the chance to guess fully, until I was a young adult in college and later when living alone.

    • #611209

      I have been wearing girl things forever. I was raised in an all female household. We were too poor to have clothes that only one person could wear. So I was always in my older sister’s things, at home and in town.

        I was the same, but then everybody was poor in those days. Most never carried on wearing fem clothes though. Even when i got boy clothes, I still loved my sisters dressing me up and even did it myself when nobody was around.

Going into a shop i told them it was for my wife, so bought it off the shelf. that had to be the first time I finally felt like a woman when I was dressed.

      The first time I got fully dressed was when I was 28 years old. It happened in the studio where I keep my belongings stored and the feeling of pleasure was amazing! Needless to say, I kept purchasing more and more stuff and doing trips to the studio to try the new pieces of attire and get dressed.

      I started with lingerie my mums when about 13. Then a close friend of mine dared me to wear his mums so I did then it got more clothes of her which was nice. Had many good times with him. She had some lovely underwear. I didn’t start getting my own until late 20s. Luckily lingerie collection is quite good now as wife is fine with me wearing them which helps.

      My first time out as a girl was when I was 12, living in St. Louis. I was home alone one afternoon, playing sick from school so I could wear my mom’s clothes. That day I wore my mother’s black silk blouse, white miniskirt and white go-go boots, her makeup, jewelry, perfume, and my own styled hair (it was the late 60’s, you know)! No fear! I grabbed a matching white purse, threw my things and some money in the purse, and OUT I went! We lived in the heart of the city, and the bus stop was just catty corner from our house. Across the street I went and waited for the bus. Right on time and on I got, sitting right behind the driver. I went up Hampton Ave. and got off the bus at the strip mall. I milled around for an hour, just walking and enjoying like a teen girl. I sat down and had a soda after all that exhausting window shopping, then headed back to the bus stop. Home I went. Off came the clothing and makeup, and back to teen boy (yuck!).

    • #613897

      During high school years while at a summer camp we did a mock “miss-Camp ______”. My friends who were girls really got into it and made me look so good that my own mother did not recognize me until I spoke. I was elated at how pretty I looked and thought I had won. Of course I did not realize the whole Mockery part, and was angry when the hairiest guy on planet earth wearing a bathing suit with toilet paper stuffing hanging out the sides and a full beard – won! The girls were delighted when I hung out with them later in the outfit. That was of course after we all got in BIG trouble since all our parents were missionaries and it was our annual mission group camp!
      I did sneak into a few closets and try things on over the years, enjoying how that felt and wondering if that plus a few other “experiences” meant something more. Finally, in my late forties early fifties I started wearing things at home alone. Then one day I bought a wig and dressed and drove out of town and shopped two towns away. The rest, as they always say, is history.

    • #614457

      I started my cross dressing when I was 27 with a loose fit zebra style dress which I had my eye on for about a year and when I finally bought it, there was no stopping me to wear it. I dressed up during a summer holiday when everyone was sleeping and got dressed up with superpush bra and my 85D breast forms fitting my physique. I am sharing the dress I wore for a small 10 minute walk around the block which was a very scary but fulfilling experience to make me realize what I have been missing in my life and now I can feel myself dressing as who I am which is a sweet chubby girl who just loves to dress and dont care about what the world thinks..

      While I’ve had desires ranging back to some of my earliest memories, I never had an opportunity to wear anything until age 12 (not counting when I had to wear tights for a play at age 9 or 10).  And even after that, it was all about wearing a skirt or dress, and not trying to look feminine.

      It wasn’t until my late 40’s where I would see via photos on the internet others dressed in public.  About 50 I had an opportunity or two to a drive long distance (3 or 3.5 hours) that I had the opportunity to come close to fully dressed (no wig, minimal makeup) on these trips home.  They included stopping for food and/or fuel on the trip.

      I was 52 before I went for my first makeover and dressing session, followed by a trip out to the diner.  I wanted to experience it at least once in my life.  I didn’t realize at the time that this would change my life.

      Dear Emily ,

      As I am still in the closet , I only dress at home.
      Wearing full outfits wasn’t possible for me until a few years ago.
      Before that I only wore pantyhose , sometimes combined with a pair
      of “borrowed” heels.

      Now I underdress just about every day at home wearing panties and pantyhose.
      When I dress up fully a couple of times a week ,
      I wear a Full Female outfit.
      Dress or skirt , panties , hosiery , heels , cami ,
      and of course a nice wig to complete the Feminine look.

      Love Sylvia.

    • #618748

      I was in my early 20’s, living on my own in my own place. I started going out wearing full makeup, nails, wig, bra, panties, jewelry, heels and a dress. I could pass easily back then, it’s a bit harder now…

    • #618764

      Not counting my sister’s clothes when I was younger. That was more goofing off, and mild exploration. I didn’t start wearing full outfits until after my divorce, so we’ll into my 40s. To that point it was just frequent underdressing.

    • #618767

      I started wearing full clothing and shoes in my pre-teens. Nobody knew of course. I then progressed becoming more sophisticated as a teenager venturing out fully dressed. I also drove in my car en femme during my 20′ and 30′, and began going out in public more regularly – mostly after dark. In my mid 40′ I switched to going out en femme during the day spending at times up to 10 days fully living as a woman, providing me a lot of inner stability and joy 🙂
