I was still dressing (age inappropriately) at 84, but had to purge and stop recentlyto save my marriage of over 55 years. The desire never goes away, sigh...

Definitely Carla's in San Jose...a very comfortable place.

She hosts a lunch on Thursdays, where gurls gather for lunch and a gabfest.

She does makeovers and takes pictures. Just what you seem...

Hard to say what was my "bestest" experience, but this was sort of an affirming one.

Back in the 70's when I started going out a lot to tg venues, I'd look in the mirror and tell myself "you look...

I guess I'm alone in knowing early on, I wasn't the only "transvestite" in the world. Been dressing since the 1940's, and had read of others who dressed. I remember a story in a Sunday supplement...

An acquaintance died of AIDS a few years back. He was married, I don't know whether he had any children.

His family insisted he acquired the HIV virus through a blood transfusion. Which very...

I used to worry about this often. Fortunately my wife, and now my three adult children and my sister, know of my dressing. So I'm sure they would dispose of any evidence of my CDing.

What is a...

I've never considered my CDing as a sickness, nor felt guilty about the dressing itself. On the other hand, as much pleasure as it gives, I wish I weren't a CD.

Why? I truly love my life as a...

For the most part, I find my pictures, well, okay, if not great. Many elicit an "Ugh!, these aren't gonna see the light of day".

I've noticed wigs make a big difference in my pictures. Some wigs...

Niya..SHUSH!!!:o

I'm old enough to have heard of Julian Eltinge...Google that one...

Not telling...but I'm one of the oldest posters so far...

And no, my pictures aren't photoshopped, I simply made a wise choice long long ago...picked the right parents:).

For me, it was very shortly after marrying. I'd always thought once I got married this craving for dressing up as a girl would go away...

As we all know, WRONG... I realized then the urge would...

I've always been an inattentive driver, on autopilot, if you will. A bit more careful en femme, but after a few minor fender benders, once dressed, I've become the proverbial little old lady driver,...

I too traveled quite a bit on business, and always took a few femme things. At hotels I stayed at frequently, I used the stair wells to get to the parking area to avoid being recognized by the...

Maybe it's my age (ooold...), but I agree with Tina. Unless you're willing to make a martyr of yourself, is it a fight worth waging? Even if you win, you may limit your prospects for advancement.

I've posted this a time or two, (or three) but it fits this thread, sort of...


I've been going out dressed since 1970 (an old broad now...), and have had a few "interesting" experiences....

Wow...I've been wondering how to post this without seeming tactless

For me, the "fluff" that follows a picture post is a bit uncomfortable. Sure, I like to be told I look nice, but seeing many of...

As many have said, most people are too polite to even stare. But we're a curiosity to most, so if they've read us, they'll wait until we've passed, then turn around to get a better look.

So, maybe...

It strikes me that the question being asked is not really about attaining success in typical male endeavors, but rather "has being CD caused you to feel discontent with your male life."

Also spent the weekend in Vegas. It was a family affair, so all I could do was ogle...

What struck me was the number of tall girls wearing four inch stilletoes. On Saturday evening, even though...

A slightly different twist on this subject...

I was at a Target store en femme a couple of years ago, and noticed a guy browsing through women's apparel with a couple of items draped over his arm....

As one of the older girls on this forum, I can comfort those of you who don't want to ever lose the erotic pleasure of dressing. After all these years, I still feel sensual every time I dress. It...

My heart sank when I read the reason for your post, I could just feel the pain should that happen to me...

Perhaps, in time, your heart will heal...

Ouch... I'm one of your 60 plus (waaay plus!!) old men, but would never go out in public "trying the brittney spear look". What bothers me, I can sense a general disdain of us older folks.

Kathy...

Your story left me wiping tears from my eyes. No, my wife is very well and alive, and will probably outlive me.

But much of your story sounded exactly like mine. An often discordant...
