Hi Girls! It’s Scarlett again and I’ll be writing this from the perspective of a situation that many crossdressers more than likely have in common.
Now Girls, you may already know I spent years and years deep in the closet with my crossdressing. It wasn’t until a year and half ago, right before we moved into our new home with lots of storage space, I was finally able to talk my sexy redhead into having “The Talk” with me. I’ll later write an article on how to bring up “The Talk” and what to say to bring about a modicum of acceptance of your crossdressing from your wife or SO.
Now to the specifics of the article. Most of us have only released our thrill of cross dressing to our wives or significant others. We have no plans of ever sharing this little secret to anyone else on our side of our family, on our wife’s side, or SO’s side of the family. We’ve known them for years, and they have known us for years, and it’s the last thing other family members would guess about us; that fact that we all love to dress up in pretty clothes and become pretty girls. Let’s face it, if we dared to offer up that bit of information to those folks, the next time a family reunion was in order, we might not get invited. At the very least, it would be an extremely awkward get-together compared to others in previous years!
So, Girls, I’m recommending not to share our thrill with other family members as a result of the above notes. Besides, when you release your little secret to one family member, the next thing ya know, everyone on both sides of your family might think you’re some sort of freak or weirdo!
Now if you’ve already released your little secret to some family members and they are accepting and considerate towards your crossdressing – lucky you! You’re in a distinct minority of crossdressers. There are still many of you out there who are still deep in the closet and not even your spouse or significant others know about your thrill of wearing pretty femme clothing. Been there and done that as noted above, and I wouldn’t want to go through that phase ever again!
Here’s what I did to share my CDing with others, and I recommend you all might want to give it a whirl as well!
My first sharing of my CD secret came with the customer service ladies at JC Penny’s in Pensacola where I used to have all my heels, boots, and booties shipped in order to keep things out of the sight of my sexy redhead prior to her acceptance of my crossdressing. So, my first public sharing of my thrill outside of our home and outside of an online CD site was when I took my crossdressing secret to those girls at the Penney’s customer service department.
I had about 50 of my best pictures of Scarlett loaded on my IPad and took the IPad to the customer service girls, asking them if they wanted to see photos of Scarlett. They couldn’t wait to see them! I opened the IPad to three women in that department ranging in ages from about 25 to 65 and showed them 30 of my top photos. My God, the reaction was off the chain incredible! Next thing ya know, they had passed the word on to some other employees in departments on the second floor and in less than ten minutes, I had a crowd of at least 10 ladies absolutely loving every photo of Scarlett and wanted me to stop in with more every time I came to the store – which I continue to do to this day!
Here are the next places I went over the next two weeks with my IPad, and later with color 8×10 photos in a folder and got the same exact reaction with each set of girls clamoring for more as I left each place!
1 1) Sports Clips where I have my hair cut. The manager and all the hair stylists have seen loads of Scarlett photos, and they won’t even let me get my hair cut now unless I bring some Scarlett show and tell pictures!
2 2) Sephora where I buy some of my foundation liquid and powder. The girls who work at these places are on the liberal side, open minded, and quite accepting of the LGTBQ folks, and now you can add CD to that list of letters as well!
3 3) Ulta – See Sephora notes above. And I should have added kind, considerate, caring, inquisitive, and full of answers to a wide variety of makeup questions you may have!
4 4) Plato’s Closet which is our largest consignment shop in Pensacola. With such a huge selection of girl’s clothing, footwear, and jewelry available at next to nothing prices. You would assume they would have admitted crossdressers in there all the time, but the first time I told them I was a cross dresser the girls were in shock until I busted loose with a pile of Scarlett photos. Then every girl in the place wanted to see my pictures. Some of them didn’t believe it was me, so I had to point out a small brown dark birth mark in the middle of my right shin. Then they were all believers that those photos were of me as a girl named Scarlett! Now those girls won’t let me shop unless I bring some Scarlett show and tell photos!
Other places to share your thrill of crossdressing with other employees are as follows: Stores in a mall or not in a mall you regularly frequent, thrift stores where you may shop on a regular basis, brick and mortar stores where you may buy lady’s shoes, wigs, purses, clothing, and other accessories.
And of course, the #1 place to share your thrill of crossdressing is right here with the wonderful girls in the greatest crossdressing site in the world – our very own Crossdresser Heaven – which is our way to get ourselves out of the closet or house on a regular basis and share our thrill of crossdressing with all of the CDH girls who share the very same thrill of wearing cute, pretty, sexy, and classy lady’s clothing! I get excited as soon as I put on a pair of heels! I just love being a girl as most of you know!
Girls, thanks for taking the time for reading another one of my informative articles. If you have other places you love to share your thrill of crossdressing, please send them in your responses to this article so that all of our readers of this article will have an exhaustive and complete list on how and where to share their own thrill of crossdressing with as many other accepting folks out there as possible!
Sincerely, Scarlett

Thank you for another great article Scarlett. You’re an inspiration to all. ❤️
You’re so sweet to say that, Isabelle and I seem to get that same sentiment from so many of the lovely girls on this site!
You girls are AWESOME! XOXOXO Scarlett
Great experiences! Are you going to the Southern Comfort Transgender Conference this weekend? Khloe will be clad in the highest and prettiest of heels. Hope to see you there.
No Babe, I can’t go to any of these conferences but would love to be able to do so! My wife stays very close to home (she’s the director of our county health department which is located a mere five miles from our new home) which makes it impossible for me/Scarlett to disappear for two or three days! Khloe, I only get out for four nights per year when my wife is away to short statewide conferences with high level state health officials from one end of Florida to the other. And this year I’ll only have 3 nights out… Read more »
I have felt the same acceptance, thanks for another great read Scarlett, I am wondering if they are more comfortable with us when we are not dressed. ?
Short answer is yes, Michelle. When I go to share my Scarlett photos with these girls in these stores, I’m always in “Handsome Husband" mode. If I were in Scarlett mode, I’m sure there would be a certain amount of awkwardness in the air while sharing my Scarlett photos!
Great question by the way, Michelle!
XOXOXO Scarlett
Lovely article Scarlett. You are an inspiration to all us girls. Love your pictures. Sometimes I just wish you wouldn’t set the bar so high. You are too pretty. Lol. Just kidding. Huggs.
PS. I have my first article about my Macy’s makeover and coming out, due to be released hernon Thursday. Hope you have the opportunity to look at it hun
Hugggz.
Annie
Annie, can’t wait to read your Macy’s makeover article. The girls who write about these makeover experiences always have nothing but very positive things to say about them and I’m sure your’s will be full of positive notes as well! Bye the way, your photos just keep getting better and better with each and every posted photo girl friend! Yep, the girls on here tell me I set the bar high and that’s an ultimate compliment and I hope to continue to raise the cross dressing bar! However, Annie, at 64 years old, my time for raising the bar is… Read more »
Another fantastic article! You are just filled with great advice. It’s funny how proud we are of ourselves aren’t we? When I’ve had to opportunity to share my crossdressed self (photos, whatever) it’s such a thrill – especially when they react in the positive! Keep up the great posts!
Thanks Girl Friend and so glad to hear from someone else who enjoys showing their photos with others, Alexis!
Thanks for liking another article of mine!
XOXOXO Scarlett
Good article, Scarlett. I debated if I wanted to show up at my cousin’s wedding as Christine this fall. I’m thinking “no"! The main reason is because my mom and my grandfather are both very ill and may not live more than another year. My grandmother wont be far behind them. That’s three funerals in the near future, and there’s no sense in making three already unpleasant gatherings downright awkward! I’m not close to any other family on my mom’s side, so once those three individuals are gone, I wont care if the others know. I’d hate to make gathering… Read more »
Super decision on your part not showing up to your cousin’s wedding this fall with your total girl on as Christine even though you would probably be one of the prettiest girls there – including that of the bride! Yep, no sense in rocking the family boat and freaking out about three of your immediate family members who may be cashing it in within the nest couple of years or so. So go to the wedding in “Handsome Husband or Handsome Guy" mode to keep all relations with the entire family smooth for the time being! Love ya, Christine, and… Read more »
Love your articles and photos Scarlett. Always look forward to reading and seeing them.They are a big inspiration to us girls.
Thank you so much, Paula! The response to my articles have been overwhelming! The girls really seem to love my writings! Many of them are based on hundreds of questions sent to me in private messages asking me for all kinds of questions pertaining to anything you can think of tied to cross dressing. Their questions inspire my articles and the title to my articles. And the articles actually end up saving me a ton of time answering individual questions coming to me by way of private messages!
Love ya girl friend! XOXOXO Scarlett
A transformative piece. Thank you for writing, it meant a lot to me personally and was the reason I have just joined CDH.
Wow, well that was sure nice to know, Stephanie. You’ll find out real quick you are now a member of the classiest cross dressing on line sites in the world! I’ve been on this site for about a year and a half and was a member of one of the worst but most popular site because it’s the first one that pops up on cross dressing site advertisements when Googling the subject. I won’t mention that site, however, I was a member of that site for over 2 years and it was a mess. The members, founder, and administrators were… Read more »

I just had to say Thank you for all your great inspiration, Thank you for being you. I am looking forward to your ideas on how to share Julie with my wife of 31 years. Hugs and… Read more »
Thanks a bunch, Julie! I love both to write and edit articles in the Article Section for CDH! I love giving tips and sharing knowledge pertaining to our thrill of cross dressing.
The girls on here tell me on a more than regular basis that I serve as their inspiration to come out of the closet, be proud of their cross dressing, and how to take their own individual cross dressing skills to their personal highest levels.
Thanks for your sweet note to me Julie! Have a wonderful rest of the week! XOXOXO Scarlett
Scarlett – good advice for those who are still closeted. I am at a different place these days. I’m at a point where I no longer really worry about who knows and who doesn’t know. Not sure if that is a good thing or not. I think the more you worry about what your close friends and family think, the more you have invested in those relationships. Maybe I’m just not as emotionally invested in any particular relationship now as I used to be.
It is nice not really worrying any longer though. BTW – you look fantastic!
April
Thanks a bunch for your reply, April, and I’m almost exactly where you’re at as far as not caring who knows about cute, sexy, pretty, and classy Scarlett. As a matter of fact, just today, two more girls at Sephora in Pensacola saw about 40 photos of Scarlett for the first time and admitted Scarlett was prettier than they were and they were makeup pros! They were kinda surprised that I never had a makeover done by a makeup pro, which I haven’t, and the fact that I learned all of my makeup skills on line through Google which took… Read more »
Thank you Scarlett for so much sharing. I am so happy for you that you found your “Sexy redhead". I’ve been blessed with Kathy for 48 years of marriage. Although she knows about Leonara, she prefers that I don’t dress when she is home so she plays cards with her friends in our 50 + community so I can be Leonara for a few hours.. XOXO. Leonara
