    Cure?

    If a "cure" was discovered for the "compulsion" of crossdressing, how many would be interested in such a "cure"?

It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who's confronted with it."

    I would take the "cure" in a heartbeat.

    Even though dressing is soooo pleasurable, I dislike the secrecy and furtiveness associated with it.

    I'd have to think over such a thing long and hard, but the notion is tempting. I agree with Mitzi; I don't like living a double life.

    However, if there was an alternative cure which corrects societies compulsion towards getting weirded out when you dress "wrong", I'd take that in a heart beat.

    Do you know I don't think I would it has taken me a lot of years to come to terms with me, but now that I have it is a pleasurable experience and since my wife found out, even though she doesn't speak of it, it has eased the lie a great deal - so no, count me out on the cure!!

    The notion of a 'cure' implies that you think it's something wrong, or bad?

    One of my favorite expressions is:"If it ain't broke, don't fix it." I've come to realize over the years there is nothing wrong with what we do in itself. Part of the experience and adventure, however, is how we utilize what we have like any resource. That is what makes the real difference.

    Depends on your definition of cure. I see this in one of three ways:

    1. Destroys urge to dress- Nah, I'm good. And if I lose this nifty part of my personality, what's gonna take it's place?

    2. Destroys the anxiety of being a crossdresser- Well, yeah, duh. But only if it doesn't interact with alcohol. Cause that already kills anxiety.

    3. Rewrites the genetic code, and rebuilds the body as the opposite gender- I'd sure as hell think about it.

    This doesn't make any sense, Transsexuals don't crossdress, you don't jump from crossdresser to TS because you had SRS... That's saying, all the MTF transsexuals on the board are really just crossdressers...

    To my mind the cure would consist of society in general losing its negative attitude to CDing. You cure the part that's sick, not the part that's well.

    After taking the big step to dressing 24/7 and then taking the bigger step and getting implants and finally "coming out"to all my family and friends,I don't see any reason for a "cure".All the people in my neighborhood,tradesmen and such,have accepted the guy with the ample bosom in the bikini cutting the grass so it's all good.Cures are for sick people and I/we aint sick.

    The money would be better spent "curing" other things that actually harm society. Let's cure hate first.

    UGH! There ain't nothing to cure here. To even think of 'curing' me of crossdressing is akin to curing a lion of being a lion or a tree of being a tree.

    conditions?

    Can I give my dress sense, make-up preferences, and shoe fetish to a woman or women that I know?

    Cure? From my stand point the cure would be to through out the male clothes and free up a third of the closet for the prettier thing out there.

    I'm really afraid what cross dressing would be replaced with.. if it were building something like models or trying to invent something then that would be good.. destructive things would be not so good.. would I take the drug?? it would depend I think.. would it be a one dose and it's gone FOREVER?? or would I have to take it every three months or so.. I think it would be interesting to see what it would be like to not be obsessed with going into the womens side of any store.. but I... I think I would miss the feeling of the shoes.. the pantyhose.. the rush!! of!!! cross dressing!!
    This is what I mean by "every guy can look like a girl from the right angles".. this is one of the first pictures of me dressed up.. very vague look.. almost fem...

    No, I sort of like things the way they are now. Why mess with a good thing and something that is one of my few pleasures in life?

    LOL sorry Joy but no sale here on that "cure" pill! It has literally taken me decades to accept that my crossdressing is OK, there is nothing wrong with me, and to accept the wonderful feminine side of myself that I experience through crossdressing. I think I am a better, more well integrated and whole person as a result of it, not to mention it is something that I really really enjoy!

    That said, if there were pills to cure society of it's negative bias towards trangendered people, I would volunteer to go pass it out to everyone!

    Exactly! "Cure" "Compulsion" ... I am what I am and when I came to realize that and embrace this wonderful gift of gender fluidity the better a person I became. This sounds like you are still "hurting" or in denial or something or other. I'm not sick (and neither are you) so I/we don't need a cure.
