How long have you been a crossdresser, and how old are you?

[Cynthia Anne]

I started at age four, and now have 54 years under my skirt!

[Raychel]

I started around age 12, Now 51, Stopped for about 10 years after My wife and I got married,
so 51-12-10=29
I guess the answer is 29 then.

[Pattie O]

I have been crossdressing all my life as far back as I can remember

[xd-tigger]

I don't even come close to 65 years. I first started to crossdress when I was 4 years old, so 22 years. I found one of my sisters skirts on the floor and tried it on. My Mum caught me and asked if I wanted to wear a skirt to school the next day. I said no.

I wonder what would have happened if I said yes.

[vivian fair]

Well, I'm 79 yrs old and have been messing around and/or dressing since about age 6 or so. The intensity has varied through out time but now the need is stronger than ever. I don't think I could quit if I wanted to so I'm justing enjoying the ride into the sunset!
Hugs,

Cathy, you are the only one who beats my record so far! And not by very much. I will be 79 in May! If I had skipped that 5 years of stopping I would be even closer to you. I might have to come to New EWngland to meet you. I have been there before and love the area. Please PM me and let me know where you live!

[S. Lisa Smith]

I think I may have started at 9 and I'm 61 now, so 52 years...

[Rogina B]

What this thread shows is just how easily crossdressing is cured! lol Good education here for someone that doesn't believe that it is a trait we are born with..lol

[Juanita O]

I will be 57 this year, I started when I was 10 so that would be 47 years

[Inna]

First time must have been 7 and last time was 44, since then whenever I put on women's apparel I am just putting clothes on!

[BLUE ORCHID]

[CDSamantha]

I'm 50 and have been dressing since I was 8--42 years now

[OccasionalSkirt]

28, been dressing since age 14

[Rachel Renee]

Started trying things on at around eleven or twelve years old. I was twenty-two when I accepted it and started buying my own things. I'm thirty-two now. I absolutely love it!

[katesometimes]

I was probably around 12 when I discovered my mother's wedding dress hanging in a garmet bag in the basement. I had to try it on, and that pretty much sealed it for me. I've dressed on and off ever since then. I'm 47 now.

[naye]

As many of you I started at 6 yo with my mom clothes, but until I was 22 I started buying my own stuff, and when I turn 27 I started doing it mor continously, now I am 32.

[Joni Thomas]

I started dressing when I was about 8. Soooooooooooo that is about 5 decades I still need alot of work. As I age I find the dressing is just as enjoyable as ever. It is nice that I am in such nice company here! Thanks Joni

[Dawn Marie]

I think I was 7 when it all started, I'll be 57 this year. And still going strong. So only 50 years for me.

[Nancie64]

Started a little around the 14 mark and than after coming out of the military at age 24, did it maybe a couple of times a month. only in the last 20 or so years have I gotten to dress more than once a week. Went out in Vegas about 10 years ago and loved it. Don't go out in public around where I live, I know to many people. I do have a makeover when I go to Vegas and do go out when out there. Only wish I would have started going out in public at an earlier age. You do get more comfortable each time. Only 3 people know that I dress, and it will stay that way. Now over 65.

[Princessbrooke]

I just started,sooooo yep. Not sayin how old I am LOL

[Sophie86]

I'm 52, with all the positive feedback I've received on my looks this will probably surprise a few but I've been dressing for (2) two weeks.

Please don't take this personally, but I hate you.



There were incidents and indications earlier in life, but I didn't really start until I was about 13, so it will be 35 years this year.

[alyssaenglefield]

Crossdressing for 11 months, and I'm 19 years old (20 in August)

[Amanda Styles]

Between 4-5 decades...

[busker]

I started in my teens, didn't do much after high school, a little in mid 40's, and now for the past 6 years, pretty much every day. I'm near on to 68.
There are so many here who are born between 1939 and and 1961 and I wonder about something I read a while back, which was that pregnant mothers were given DES routinely during those years to prevent miscarriage. THere was some indication that the women who did get DES and had female babies, some of those girls were likely to be lesbians. So while we are all males, I wonder whether we became interested in being Cders for the same chemical reasons? I am not interested in men, and so as a crossdresser I'm still interested in women ( does that equal lesbian interests?)

[Tasha McIntyre]

I am 44 years old and have been crossdressing since age 11 or 12, only the clothing, no make up or wig.

Upon discovering and joining this forum in late 2008 I had my first attempt at using make up and wearing a wig......wow what a thrill.

Progressed a few months later to getting out and about in public, wow what a double thrill. Life has been wonderful ever since.
