Nothing made me want to crossdress. However, I have come to accept my need to express myself through wearing feminine clothing.

I feel passively vengeful, well liked, understood & a sense of quiet satisfaction. I also feel hyper-aroused, orgasmic, 'trigger' happy and emotionally erect. Ratatat tat if ya know what I mean?
Good question. Nobody 'made me do it'. It was kind of like looking over the edge - and falling in.
I do it because I enjoy CDing, it expresses another side of me. I also do it because I'm 'not supposed to'.
Any of these work for you?
Because I want to be a woman.

I have a strong feminine side. It feels good and natural. Lauren needs time for herself and her girlfriends.

I simply feel that I have been freed finally from the straitjacket of acceptable male attire and grooming! So I want to expand my fashion options.
Right now I'm bored as hell wearing the usual shirt and pants for the past several days, so after I take a shower I'm going to put on a dress!

"My invisible friend made me do it", (no, my mom didn't buy that one either). How 'bout because it makes me feel good, calm and whole.

It just happens to be the greatest feeling in the world!

I feel that everything is right in my world.
Dressing allows me to express myself in ways that I can't, or don't want to, as a guy. I'm more attentive, a better listener, more caring. I like being me -- but better. It's what makes me do it.
Just feels good. And, a little sexy.
I feel relaxed. I enjoy the feeling of slipping into comfy things when I get home.
When I feel lonely, depressed and sad I find so much comfort in dressing up in girly garb. Dressing makes me forget about everything that is happening around me. I also like projects so dressing opens up a whole can of worms of researching, learning and practicing. I just really enjoy myself when I get all girlie.
I do it because I enjoy the feeling of attractiveness I get. It's honestly the only time I'm ever complimented on my appearance... I am a man, but I LOVE the feeling I get when I'm all dolled up, and when I have a stressful day, it feels amazing to just lay back in a dress and watch a nice chick flick.
There is no better feeling then sliping on a sexy bra and some leggings. Sliding my feet into pair of hot heels. Everything else just seems to go away.
For me, a lot of it has to do with breaking out from the normal taboo. I was raised as a male to like male things, and that's fine, but a big part of me loves the thrill of breaking those rules and being someone else when I get he chance. Also, but just as big a factor, I love the feel of women's clothing and the sexiness that it gives me. (Well, in my eyes anyway!) If you add that to the thrill of wearing heels, makeup, and any other various female accoutrements, I doubt that I could find a more soothing mental state to be in.
Basically, my love of crossdressing makes me crossdress. It's fun!
Even though I am male (blah), I like to identify with females as much as I can and still feel comfortable.

Definitely an escape from the everyday!
For me it's fun and exciting, sexy yet relaxing. As some of you have said it just feels right.
for me its about full-filling a big hole in my life, a way to show my true self. I love the female form, I love being fem. It is a huge release when I can look in the mirror and see someone beautiful and feel it at the same time. I hate mens clothes, I hate having hair all over my body, I wish it away everyday. I love soft things, gentileness, etc. I love feeling sexy, pretty, beautiful, confident all at the same time. I love the sound of my heels clicking on the floor, the feel of my dress and nylons as I walk, the smell of my perfume and makeup. I love everything about being fem. Was I suppossed to be a girl and God gave me this male body instead, hmmm.. not sure about that. Maybe someday I will find that answer but until then this is what I got. I have a feeling that most of you feel the same way and I am just glad to be able to share these feelings with someone besides me and my mirror
I guess it's because I am a pervert?.... I didn't know one could be a pervert at the age of 4 ( earliest age I can remember dressing )or even through my teens. . But I must be, that's how soceity see's it so it must be true... Not much help from the medical industries cause it's not life threatening ,so no cures or accurate studies .. Instead they group all " gender issues " under one umbrella and allow the " stereo type main stream thinking " to fill in the blanks..
I'm not bitter , I have all you ladies here some in the same boat others think it's better than sliced bread.. But I am not alone and I have accepted my secret life style.. At first it was like dragging a two ton anchor around but it's more like a ball and chain..Kinda like being married to it in a way , it doesn't control me but it sure makes an impact sometimes on my daily life..I figured , you only live once , make the best of it..
I do not!! Claim to be an expert on any topic, when I post a new thread or reply on any thread my imput is strickly that of a crossdresser. Not to offend Gay people , Transexuals or any other life style, I am only commenting on one of my own.
For each person, there may be a different reason. You may read mine in my biography, the link is in my sig.
Some causes of crossdressing you've probably never even considered: My TG biography at:http://www.crossdressers.com/forums/...=1#post1490560
There's an addendum at post # 82 on that thread, too. It's about a ten minute read.
Why don't we understand our desire to dress, behave and feel like a girl? Because from childhood, boys are told that the worst possible thing we can be, is a sissy. This feeling is so ingrained into our psyche, that we will suppress any thoughts that connect us to being or wanting to be feminine, even to the point of creating separate personalities to assign those female feelings into.
Actually I've been thinking about this a lot lately. I feel completely relaxed when dressed. Usual dress with my wife present and even so it just feels so natural to be dressed as a woman. Won't want to be there all the time but really enjoy it when I do (once or twice a week).
I'm with TGMarla. It's a part of who I am. And, as time goes on, this part of me insists on being asserted, or I do not feel a whole person.
