It can be.
I know for me it set up a positive feedback loop that caused stress on my marriage. Recognizing that, I'm much better now.

Heathr,
Humiliation can only happen if you let it. Will people have their opinions? Sure. How you react to those opinions determines how you feel about them. Recognize that they may not...
Around here, it seems that the Mazda 3 series is the girly car of choice.

Yes, we can be an extra-large bucket of confusing - with a side of consternation! :)
I have to say your statement that there is no one in the world that needs your love, compassion, understanding...

Unfortunately, only you can answer that question. I know for me it is a combination of both; the curse is what I put my wife through. The blessing is in how many new things and ideas this...
And one of my favorites? Why don't women like to dress like us? You know - as women! :)
Kathi
Very interesting! Thanks!
The chapter title leaves me a bit cold, however. I'll have to read the entire chapter to see if the author thinks all crossdressers are fetishistic.
Kathi
Yes we are, aren't we? :)
Exactly! For me it is an outlet - a creative outlet, an outlet for a part of me that is rarely expressed, and a way to show the world that what we do isn't what the...
Says who? Beverly, the only one who can draw the "right" conclusions about your life is you!

This quote has been rattling through my head ever since I posted it in this thread. I have seen people posting lately with thoughts on this running the gamut from saying crossdressing defines them...
Dana,
I totally forgot my training (that's what happens when you get out of your field and let your license lapse);
What do you think?
:)

Suzanne, how awesome for you! Glad you are involving your wife. Keep it - and the constant communication - going.
By the way - you look fantastic!
Kathi
Yes - everyone.
Sorry, but something this "juicy" is just too good to keep to yourself. So again, although it might seem like a good idea, as you can see, it may not be.

Hmmmmm, interesting thought. While it's true that crossdressing is one of the things I do for myself, I wouldn't say it's the only thing. But as no one shares it with me, maybe you're right. Hmmmmm ....
DINO?
Dresser In Name Only?
Drag In Nights Out?
Dang Insensitive Nerdy Oldies?
I guess I'm a forum dino. I know I'm sure stuck in the ooze, slowly sinking into oblivion . . .
So, . . yay....
I think what Sara and all of us are saying is this:
We get it. We want people to know our "little secret" because we want acceptance. We want to share our fun with the world. The problem? Many in...
Well, maybe I was the one being stereotypical, because I assumed that a male boss wouldn't know men's pants from women's pants. When Jenny said her boss would recognize them as women's pants, the...
What goes on in my head? Hmmm, let's see:
Did I mail those eBay packages?
My gosh, my daughter looked so cute - and yet so grown up - yesterday!
Ugh! I want to *throttle* the smug *&%!@ who...
Isn't it funny how we all assume the boss is a male? Sigh. You can take the gender bias out of the boy, but . . .
:)
Kathi
Guilty!
Ya got me. I'm actually a 300 pound black male - but I have mad Photoshop skillz!
:)

Paula,
All I want to do when I go out is to be accepted - by as many people as possible - as me. Although some tell me that I pass as a woman, well, . . . I do have a mirror. :)
Yes. When I go...
Yayyyyy! She gets it! Good for you, girl. Life is for living, not thinking about how to live.
*cough* *cough* :)
As it has always been. Maybe one day people will realize that even when you...
Such is our choice, indeed. Peace always wins out. Eventually. UNtil that time, you have the love of your wife, children, and friends to sustain you. I'd say you're doing fine.
:)
Kathi
Absotively!
At least, . . . as close as I can get.
I'm not a hyper-feminine dresser. I'm not a fetishistic dresser. I'm not a period dresser. And I'm sure not one that would be called anything...
It is honestly very cute.
