why do you all want to be crossdressers?

[jennifer41356]

I dont crossdress, I feel I am a female and want to express my female side, I love to experience those things, buying cute outfits, looking pretty experiencing the softer , gentle way of life, I wouldnt trade it for anything

I never felt right growing up as a male. Even from a very early age I have always worn some item of girls clothing, mainly underwear, although it caused some very close shaves at school. I wouldn't want to go back to dressing as a male now as I have a much better life as a female and certainly many more friends. I have always been feminine in appearance so passing as a female has never been a problem. My weight has always been kept in check so that I look every bit the part as possible. Why dress in drab male suits each day when you can have such a vast array of wonderful clothes as this. Life has never been so good and I look forward to getting out of bed each day. I have been CDing for so long that some of my female friends even ask me for tips on clothes and make-up, which only goes to boost my confidence even more. Life doesn't get much better than this.

I guess that becoming a crossdresser was sort of a natural progression for me ... But from the day I was born, I always wanted to be a BOY ... And I was a 100% roughneck BOY until I was 10 and 11 when everything started to change because of my developing "Girlie Tits"

All the boys at school made fun of me. They called me horrible names like "Mr. Tits," and "Jimmy Jugs." A few of the girls at school offered the "loan" oftheir bras ... My three older sisters made fun of me at home.
And I didn't dare let anyone see me without a shirt and I couldn't go swimming anymore.

I guess the idea of wearing female clothes was planted in my mind when
I was 13, and a friend's mother told me I needed a bra to keep my "titties" from bouncing.

One day, when I was home alone, I decided to see what wearing a bra would be like. And since there were four women in the house, I found a wide selection of bras to choose from. Just by rummaging thru the laundry hamper, I found several bras belonging to Mom or my three sisters. After trying a few and learning how to adajust the straps properly, I found that sister Patti's black lace, 36B, underwire bra fit me like it was custom made.

I just can't explain the absolute rush that came over me while wearing that bra. I admit that it was a big sexual stimulant, but that feeling was just sooooo much more ... All I can say is that it was pure heaven ... And it wasn't long before I discovered that wearing panties, stockings, dresses,
and high heels was the ultimate rush ... And I've been cross dressing ever since.

The question reminds me of when, as a kid, I would be asked why I had done something. It was a perplexing question then since, usually, there was no "why".
But the crossdressing question is actually easier- I have always done it because it's the next best thing to Being. Fate gave me a male body to cope with and part of coping was 'dressing. Now I have greater options

I crossdress for the same reason that i work out, play certain sports, learn and research certain subjects. Because it part of who I am and i enjoy it. I enjoy the feel and freedom of a skirt over pants. I perfer silk and satin to wool, i like beautiful things art, music, history, liturature and clothing. I'm me I can be no other and i shall not repress that side of me just because society has a hang up about it.

[charllote34]

Because i want to continue being who i am not what i am dictated to be !! Apart from the obvious physical differances , whether you are a man or a woman are we not all individuals with our own values and beliefs ?
I find the more i am told how to act the more i rebel!

]I don't think any of us have any choice"[/B] in the way we feel. This feeling finds us - we don't go out looking for it. So we don't choose to do it or not do it.

I never felt comfortable as a boy growing up. Didn't like sports or many boy type things. Even now I feel more comfortable around females than males.

I make a better looking female than male anyday. I don't know where it's going to lead me, but I'm very happy with it..

As a lot of others here say...Its not a choice, it,s the way we are born. You either learn to accept yourself like this or drive yourself mad refusing too!! If i wasn,t born with this inside me, would i want to crossdress?? Probably not!!

WoW Deborah is so right i had no choice . i tried so hard not to do this but the drive was too strong

All my life I have been attracted to femme clothing, the colors, the textures,the feelings that go with wearing them, wanting to look as femme as possible, etc.. I've denied it, purged countless times, fought it, twisted myself up inside over it.... But once I surrendered to the fact that I am a "Crossdresser" I was released from my self-imposed bondage and I found peace of mind and freedom of spirit.

This is who I am....If I never dressed again I would still and always be a crossdresser. I'd just be an unhappy and unpleasant person...... Why would I want to do that to myself?

Thanks everybody for your comments. One person did get what i said wrong though i wasn't saying i only want to go out on halloween, i have gone out tons of times as kirra after school and work. I don't do anything the safe way i'm like many of you i'm a rebel. I just wanted to know if others had the same reasons for cding that i did. I think what i was getting at is if your a cd and your not doing anything with it but buying clothes its not worth it. I am proud to be a cd i like both my sides and i enjoy reading all your comments, i respect each and everyone of you. So thanks again.

For me, much of my need to dress is driven by a lack of physical contact. Growing up with very limited touching, once I got married and could touch a lot, not being allowed to touch and not being touched by my spouse has been very difficult, and CDing when I was a teen was my only way to counteract the lack of physical contact. It also feels right (relaxing) now to dress in women's clothing.

I'm going to add my 2p... how I see it, it's not about 'wanting' it's about being who you are and sometimes it can cause a lot of hurt, heartbreak etc, but that is out of ones control, you can't help what you are and if that is being a CD, everyone will tell you, nothing in this life will ever change it and it isn't anything to be ashamed of. If others don't like it, that is their problem isn't it?

[trannie T]

I never wanted to be a crossdresser, I wanted to be a. . .LUMBERJACK!

[Daintre]

I did not choose to be a CD, it is something that I have a need to do. To say it isn't worth it if you don't go out is a bit narrow minded. There are many here who have a desire to dress but lack the confidence or ability to walk on the wild side. I am comfortable in my own home. My family now knows who I really am and I find that I do not fight this as much anymore.

[Darlene-VA]

I have never had a choice in this matter, I always knew that I was different and one day the lightbulb turned on and I have been working on being a woman as much as possible every since. After all these years I have no guilt at all and finally very happy with myself and the woman that I project to everyone else

Crossdressing was NOT on my list of things to do in my life before I die.
I always had a fascination with the underwear, that the girls I used to date
would be wearing. I liked the feel of the fabric, I liked the way they looked on them. I liked the fact they they concealed a hidden treasure, and sometimes
left their scent in them. I remember my high school girlfriend giving me the pair that she had on one night after we made love. I know some where along the line I started trying them on. Maybe in the beginning it was more of a sexual arousal, but I really enjoyed putting them on and wearing them. I started wearing them under my regular mens underwear and eventually stopped wearing mens underwear and enjoyed the feeling of panties under my jeans. The fabric, the lace, satin, silk, etc, always was a constant source of erotic pleasure. Eventually I tried on bras, pantyhose, etc....and I think I got "hooked" I now own all types of womens clothing, although I can never pass in public, but it still is a fun time for me in the privacy of my own home.

[SandyR]

I believe life is a balancing act, not too much red meat, eat salad, enjoy a beer....etc. Sandy is a part of me, not something I choose to do, I believe I was born with her. She brings as much to me as my male said, in-fact I need both to be complete.

I want to be a crossdresser because i have to be one.Ive tried to give it up for relationships,it didnt work.Dont know the feelings of giving up drugs,but felt cold turkey when tried to give up cd,i just cant and dont want too anymore.i am who i am

[KandisTX]

I am that which I have always been. Both masculine and feminine occupying the same physical being. I dress for the feminine side of myself, not for any other reason.

I regret being a crossdresser because it ruins your social life and employment. I tried quitting / purging 3 times but always came back. Ever since my last purge I've accumulated a dream collection of skirt suits, pant suits, dresses, chearleader outfits, and schoolgirl clothes. Beautiful items that can hardly be replaced again if I purge. But I feel guilty and wonder when I die and face God he will judge me as a crossdresser. But I tell him to bless me for a change for the better - like a good paying permanent job and a beautiful wife that can fit my size 2 to 8 clothes (mostly 4 & 6). Then I would try to crossdress less and my wife would inherit my clothes so no purge. This time, I can never purge again!

I can tell you that I never wanted to be a cross dresser! This is what I am. I would not wish this on anyone! Feeling insecure, alone, strange and weird!
Living the life that I live, being a CD, is definately not what I would have chosen if I were given a choice. But, this is what I am and there is nothing that I can do about that. I just have dealt with my life as a CD the best that I can. Whitch I can say that I embrace the way that I have been since birth!

It's nice to see someone who thinks like me.

My Question is why do you want to be a crossdresser?

I don't think I ever had any choice in the matter. It is just the way I have always been. It is like asking the question, "why do you want blue eyes?"
