I know I'm "different"... To GG's and anyone with an opinion...

[Phoebe P.]

I am who I am. I am a man that likes to wear women's clothing, make-up etc...

What is the big deal? Please explain it to me. I just don't get it.

Women's clothes are soft and feel great against your skin.

Why is it such a TABOO?

Women wear Men's clothes all the time. Why? I have NO idea! They're uncomfortable! Just b/c there is something else down there doesn't mean I should wear uncomfortable clothing!

How do you feel?

[tiffanyjo89]

To me, clothes are clothes.

If you aren't comfortable with what you are wearing, then don't wear it.

I actually got a chance to kinda come out to my sister today. I actually did dress in front of her, granted it was for Halloween, so it kinda doesn't count. I told her that I actually thought that the panties were more comfortable than my normal underwear. She kinda laughed, but when I further explained it, I think she knew why I felt that way. They hold everything a bit tighter (I told her I don't get how guys wear boxers, everything flops around).

Some people like looser clothing, some people like tighter clothing. Some people like more 'girly' clothing, some people like more 'masculine' clothing. It's a matter of personal preference.

I agree to what you say, jeans were invented in the 1920th as male working clothes, a suit has always been a male's business outfit, boots were designed for working shoes for males , females have taken it all onboard and we have nothing left , so if it's ok for a female to wear male clothes , why can't it be ok for a male to wear female clothes

[Tanya C]

Phoebe, I don't what the big deal is either. I see absolutely nothing wrong with crossdressing at all.
In fact, it's hard for me to understand why anyone wouldn't want to dress in women's clothing.

[Tracii G]

Haven't dressed totally male in many years.All my friends are used to it.
I don't see what the big deal is others do tho'.
Here is what I looked like today not a word said by anybody.

Its based around the archaic idea that men are better than women, and its okay if a woman wants to wear mens' clothes, because she's trying to empower herself and take a more commanding role in life. If a man dresses in womens' clothes, its seen an act of submission and passiveness, and we as men are supposed to be aggressive and competitive. Frankly, its a whole lot of BS.

I know what a CD is , crossdresser, so what is a GG ???

[GirlJess]

I believe GG stands for Genetic Girl.


I don't think it should be a problem for guys to wear womens clothing, but I am a progressive fellow and understand that it is seen as abnormal by society at large. I think for many people it represents something that the average person does not understand, (If I don't know why I dress, how is my neighbor to understand it?), and it is seen by many as overtly sexual, while that is not always the case. I would say as well that many probably see it not as an empowering act of self expression, but as an intentional sissification easy to equate with homosexuality.

OK before this thread goes off about women and mens clothes, lets set the record straight. Women wear clothes that are for women, no matter what the original intention of the clothing, the body shape it was designed for, you do not find women going in mens clothes shops and buying trousers, shirts, suits ties etc for themselves to wear, you find women going into womens clothes stores and buying trousers designed to fit the female body, the majority of the female population do not wear male clothing and of those that do, they identify themselves as f2m TG or transmen.

Get away from the idea that a particular item of clothing is for one gender or another, there are many males who wear dresses, skirts and all the other clothing that is deemed for women, the only issue here is where they are worn, either in plain view or behind closed doors, and that is down to a personal preference and circumstances.
