A couple of years ago I finally got up the nerve to tell a priest during confession that I was a crossdresser and asked him if that was a sin. Much to my relief he assured me that crossdressing, in and of itself, is not a sin. I take my little victories where ever I can find them.
Did he ask you out to lunch?
Just kidding....
I'm Catholic, and love our Priest & Monsignor.
There resides within me a Woman, and she is powerful.
She has been my Grace and Bearing on the stormiest seas.
I could no more deny Her than I would my own soul.
No lunch, but he did tell me to whisper as I think I raised my voice a little out of nervousness!
Edit: I worded this poorly. I don't understand the guilt, I guess.

Karen,
I'm glad he said that, I don't know how you would deal with something you're born with to be told differently. So did you then ask if you could attend his church dressed ?
One question if you have a wife does your priest know before your her ?
Happy to hear your priest gave you some comfort. My pastor would have damned to hell on the fast train.
I realize this is not Facebook. But darn it, some times you just need a "LIKE" button.
My wife has always known which is going on 28 years now. I have never gone out in public dressed before so no Mass as Karen.Originally Posted by Teresa
Amen to that
Churches are starting to loosen up about LGBTQ+ persons! Not all of them but some and it is a start! I'm glad you found a church that accepts! Too bad, that you can't go dressed! Hugs Lana Mae
