Gemma Lovegood
Shy and kind closeted straight crossdresser. I started dressing very young (around 10), wearing my mother’s and sister’s things when I was alone. In my 20s I lived alone, and purchased several things of my own, including makeup. I worked for a gay man, and became a close friend of his, though I was and still am very straight. I went to several gay bars with him, and encountered many CDs, drag queens, and the full spectrum of the LGBTQ+ community. But, I could never find the courage to come out to him as a CD. I’m married for over two decades now and have never revealed my secret to my wife. We have countless gay friends (male and female), but I’ve never revealed myself to any of them. It seems strange, and is one of my biggest regrets. I’ve lived so long with this secret that it feels like I’ve passed a point of no return. Perhaps one day I’ll find the courage. I’m grateful for all of the friends and discussions I’ve had with others like me here at CDH. It truly feels therapeutic, and I’ve grown to accept these desires that I have, and to realize there are so many like me in the world. That gives me great peace.

A new photo by my best friend! This is a day to celebrate!
(Blushing) Well, …it is a photo from earlier this year, but I suppose it is new to CDH. It’s so nice to have support from the girls here. But NO ONE can top the support from my bestie, Angela!!! Isn’t she the best, girls? She is always so supportive, and loving in her comments. Please help me thank her, and give her a rousing standing ovation (in our high heels, of course).
Hi Gemma! I wish you the best of luck when you have “the talk” with your wife. I was lucky and my wife accepted my dressing. I also wanted to mention how cool it would be to have a trans friend to confide in.

I’m blessed with many friends across the LGBTQ+ spectrum, and quite embarrassed that I have never revealed my truth to them. Perhaps one day, I will find the courage. You girls sure do make me want to take those important steps.
Gemma you are such a beautiful woman and yes you do have great eyes along with a great figure. hope all goes well with your wife are she can accept your beautiful feminine side.
Thank you, Kaija! Really appreciate the encouragement.
Gemma, I love everything about you in this picture, You look so pretty. You have such a lovely feminine presence.
Thank you very kindly, Julie!
That “telling the wife” part is hard. I never was able to do that until she came home early one day and I was in full CD. I wish I had found a way to tell her before that but I didn’t. We have survived the initial shock but things aren’t quite the same as before. I would encourage you to find a way to discuss this with her. It will be hard.
On a lighter note; you look great. Your old high school girlfriends were right.
Yes, it is a very difficult thing for me to think about. Thanks for the encouragement, and the compliment.
Gemma, I was busy this morning, so I didn’t have the time to write you the comment you deserve. But I do now. Oh, Gemma, it’s so wonderful to see you back on the photo pages. I have missed you so terribly. Full confession: I’ve never actually noticed your eyes before. But now I have, and you’re right — they’re gorgeous. So alluringly feminine. Some of that is your own natural beauty. But some of it is also your skills at eye makeup — which I would describe as professional level. I am so jealous! Because I find eye makeup… Read more »
You are way too kind, as always, and sure know how to make a girl blush! Much appreciated, Bestie. There are so many new makeup techniques that I can’t wait to try soon.
Gemma, you look gorgeous in that dress!
Thank you, Sophia!
