Its about being yourself, isn't it?
Its about being yourself, isn't it?
I strut my stuff, I feel so proud,
I need to shout, to scream out loud,
I am Tricia I am she,
I am who I want to be

It is, I believe, about being both of me.
At two different times

Yep. Be yourself. Of course, if you happen to be a woman then it's both. I spent a long time being someone else. When I started being myself again it was clear to me and those who love me that I'm a woman.
So it all works out if you let it

Ding Ding Ding Ding, We have a winner...!
Thats exactly it for me, its just about being comfortable, and being ME.

I agree Tricia, when I dress up I am expessing my true self
TS' would say no, its about being a woman, but this is a crossdressing site -directed toward crossdressers, and as such one should assume that aspect of the gender umbrella isnt the focus here.
Could it be getting to be someone else entirely in some cases as well? Possibly.
Personally I often laid claim to the idea that "this is just part of me" as well. Just me being me. I'm not so certain that sort of claim has any real clout with me anymore though. I say if you are happy, and crossdressing works just fine in your life - then fantastic, carry on doing what youre doing and beleiving what you beleive! In such cases I'm jealous!
Getting back to the idea of being someone else > Isnt it wonderful to cast aside ones own identity?! the bills, the way you behaved at the office Christmas party last year, your stresses, problems.. and just make a whole new you! Everything is different on the outside, some things even change internally... but its like you have a clean slate. You actually escape certain realities and have a whole new world to rediscover! Its bliss.

I thought it was about wearing pretty clothes and playing with makeup?
I agree 100%. It's just another part of our personality. I like to think the world would be a better place if all the men had a feminine side.

It ALL depends upon WHY you CD. I, for one, do it to NOT be 'myself"---Some of us CD to ESCAPE our real self. The idea is to become someone else far removed from one's normal self, thus permitting one to drop all the cares , concerns and obligations of one's real (male) self. The result is supreme releif of stress and a form of total relaxation.
I call this form of CDing "escapist". There are other reasons for CDing too, that have nothing to do with "being one's 'real' self", whatever that means.---Some of us CD as a form of 'risk taking' or "taboo-tripping" that results in an addictive "brain High". Still, others of us CD for sexual enjoyment alone---such as a fetish situation or even SM/ humiliation.---Indeed, not ALL of us think of CDing as "striving to be our 'real' selves"
Just trying to be the best person I can be.
If it was easy, everyone would be doing it.
I agree that it is being the person you like and want to be. I love feeling like a woman. When I am dressed up I do feel like a woman and love the feeling.
My reasons tend to fluxuate. There are times when I'm more transgendered than at other times. Does that make sense? Sometimes it's all about the toys. It's all about the pretty dresses, and the pantyhose, and the high heels, and the cute little bracelets, and the perfume.....and on and on. There are other times when it's more about the woman I should have been, or the girl on the inside that is me..... It all gets very convoluted and confusing. The only constant through it all is that I love wearing pretty dresses and such.
So maybe it is all about being me. I love wearing dresses.
Any money found in the laundry is MINE!

This is what I have put on both my FaceBook and MySpace profiles...pretty much sums it up!!!!!READ THIS FIRST!!!!!!! For those that want to be my friend, make sure you read about me and look at my pictures. I am who I am and God and my family will always love me for being true to myself, not by what I wear.
