I am, I think, a typical average cross dresser. I started by stealing my sisters panties and wearing them in bed when I was about 8. Over a few years, the typical progression of dressing with a few more items of clothing and gradually make up. I think I stalled a bit from age 10 to 12, never wearing more than a stuffed bra under a leotard. When I turned 13, I had a red letter day in my cross dressing activity. I put on my first dress. I can remember that day and dress like it was yesterday. It was a floral pattern and had a tight bodice, loose pleated skirt and zipped up the back. The funny thing about that day and that dress is that I was frozen in my sister's bedroom holding the dress and wondering if putting it on would make me gay! I mean, I was wearing a bra stuffed with socks and panties and pantyhose and I'm debating the wearing of a dress. Well, I put it on. I loved it. And I didn't become gay, just a cross dresser.
Did you ever have such a "moment"? Some particular outfit that you can recall that cemented your cross dressing mind?
