Sarah7391 rather summed it up a lot the beniits I get from CD, expect that I don't post pictures, "I honestly don't really know. I know I like doing it. I look forward to the next opportunity. I like the feel of the clothes. I like looking feminine and try to look as pretty as I can. I love posting pictures on here and people saying I look nice. When it comes to changing back, I don't really want to."
I can also easily identify with the last statement
But I don't know why I like it. I just do."
Me too. I love corssdressing. When out en femme, I feel calmer, and more relaxed. Tension disappears. I feel that I am my real self. It is also a means of escaping from male attire which I dislike wearing. This is a major benefit, wearing the clothes I like and am comfortable in.
I too often ponder the question of the deeper reaons why I like crossdressing and have yet to come up with an answer.
One other benefit is that it is a kind of protest against the androgynous style of clothing worn by GGs. I dress in a very cute, feminine fashion, mainly the Lolita style nowadays. I get some pretty interesting looks from GGs of all ages, including the little girls, who seem to look at me with as kind of confused feeling or longing. It is not uncommon to hear the comment made among themselfves, "That looks so cute!" They often say this to me directly. My sytle and theirs are at opposite poles.
All of these are some of the benefits I get. There seems to be almosst no end to them.
