I have been a cross dresser forever. Became serious about dressing about 30 years ago. I dress conservatively although that is not my wife's opinion. I love to go out, whether it is shopping, dining or just for a drink. I do enjoy the company of men on some of these outings but I have to say it is difficult to find men who will be seen in public with a CD. I have aged well and I have learned a lot about make up and presentation over the years so I can go almost anywhere without concern. I would say I am gutsy and fearless which helps me in the outside world. My wife allows but will not go out with me. I love clothes, my closet is full and I am a happy girl.
