    Most inconvenient thing about crossdressing..

    Just wondering what other crossdressers think about this. Not what causes you the most soul searching etc just examples of what people find a nuisance in the day to day practicalities of life as a crossdresser. For me, apart from the obvious of not being free to do it where and when I choose, it has to be the constant shaving. I love my smooth legs, but maintaining them is a nightmare...!

    Keeping my body hairless. Its the reason I'm late for every date haha. Then dealing with the skin irriation after shaving my face or using a depilitory. Second would be the skin softening routine, then the keeping my hair look amazing thing (I have human hair wigs). Somedays I don't feel like dealing with it so I don't.

    when dressed -
    Fighting with pantyhose and having to touch up lipstick. And while I love the look, I hate the feel of all that makeup on my face.

    In general - Always thinking about if what I am wearing looks good.
    It takes a true Erin to be a pain in the assatar.

    Ha. I could relate to most of the replies. I suppose it's not the shaving so much as the fact that it grows back so quickly...Permanent removal is out the question though. I like the feel of make up however, and retouching my lipstick..If I could get the hang of drinking from cups/glasses without it going all over the rim I'd be alot happier though!

    I think the shaving is too.

    ..If I could get the hang of drinking from cups/glasses without it going all over the rim I'd be alot happier though!
    yeah, good one, I agree.

    I've actually been finding a different inconvenience lately. How addictive crossdressing can be, the amount of time that I've spent crossdressing lately has been way too much, that I have let it get out of control. I dont have a job, I've been trying to set up my own business for what seems too long (recording studio), and some days it seems that I may just get a few things done on my computer, dabble with some recordings of mine, and a friends, for a while, but spend a lot of the day dressing, makeup, changing clothes, photos, then put on my male gear if I go out, and come home to do it all over again. So I realised tonite that I need to resist temptation more often, and get a grip

    The most inconvenient thing for my friends and family is that I'm half in and half out the damned closet! This means that they don't always know when they can comfortably call me Sarah or use "She" or "her".

    For me having the lipstick on the glass is one of the things I like. I just love seeing my favorite shade on my glass. Then I get the opportunity to put on some more.

    One thing I'll never get over is having someone over my place and then getting that feeling of "what have I left laying around" a form,a lipstick,a bra?

    The most inconveinient thing for me is having to stop crossdressing and go back to being 'male'.

    Try waxing then, much nicer, and after the first time, not very uncomfortable. We both love it, and it's only necessary to do it once every few weeks.

    The most inconvenient thing about my crossdressing is protecting my ego. It is so fragile! If I am "spotted" of if I just imagine that I am or even might be spotted, my self worth is just squeezed flat. I am embarrassed to death.

    If I should simply want to go out to the mailbox "dressed", I cannot because "they" will see me. My neighbors are so much more important than I am, and in my heart I feel that "then" they won't like me. (You know what? I don't even know if any of them do like me, anyway!)

    When I am "out and about", If someone makes a negative comment re my crossdressing, I am shattered even tho I try not to show it. My emotional damage happens so easily. Actually, almost no one ever says anything - but I am so afraid they might do so. ...happened maybe once or twice in 35 years.

    I have been dressing long enough to have mostly overcome the technical difficulties - although it does take me waaaay too much time to get shaved, trimmed and polished, to make up, and dress. In fact, that part has made me feel that just possibly I may not want to "dress" anymore. I know that won't happen, but the thought does occur.

    Difficult details: Trying to hide facial wrinkles and age spots. Not remembering which shoes become uncomfortable in a short time. Not worrying about a "run" in stockings. ...a little sweat in my armpit. That wonderful blouse which is now too tight but cannot get rid of it. Putting on a corset. Keeping my nails smooth and polished. And now that I am old, I have to have a list of what to do in what order.... hehe.

    The most inconvenient...it must be hiding from the neighbors and the wider family. Since my wife is accepting I can wear female clothes at home. But if someone is coming over I have to run and change. Annoying.

    Smile Most inconvenient thing about crossdressing..

    The most inconvient thing to me - like the other girls - is ruining a pair of pantyhose when putting them on fast - and forgetting that I have my long nails on - darn. And of course the usual - what to wear, what to wear, and finally what to wear . Since I dress full-time in the house that can be a big decision with a full closet full of clothes - sometimes I just give up and put on a blouse, shorts and slum it lol - but I love it and its fun to finally come up with that perfect outfit for the day. Makes my day when I do.

    My peeves

    Short and sweet.

    Keeping my eyebrows from growing a forest on my face, while at the same time not getting them waxed too thin or so feminine that the muggles comment.

    Covering my dark thick beard well enough to pass, especialy in pictures and/or daylight.

    And lastly and most of all, worrying about being read when I go out-I mean in reality nobody cares, so what am I worried about? Besides, 999 out 1000 people will never do anything other than make snide comments, and that doesn't really hurt-Right?
