It's more fun being a girl

[Georgina]

I often read from CDs that it's more fun being a girl and I would like to know why. I don't think that it is more fun being a girl if you are a girl. It may only seem so if you are a guy.

[Kate Simmons]

Not sure that it's more fun being a girl. I do know I can have a lot of fun looking like one though and that's what really counts.;):)

[Brittany CD]

Depends on the dresser, but I find it more fun to be a girl because of the physical appearance and the outfits we wear. I find it more invigorating to see myself in the mirror with long hair and a nice face because I like female beauty and I prefer to wear female outfits, so this is why I find it more fun being a girl

[Linda Stockings]

Never having been a real girl, it's about impossible vp me to say. I feel at home in girl clothes - relaxed, at ease, and very comfortable. Even, and maybe especially in the clothes most GG's find very uncomfortable, heels, nylons, skirts, dresses, etc. There isn't a sexual excitement part of it for me. That comes from interactions with real women. I find women beautiful. If I could experience the real thing, being a GG, even the discomforts, uncomfortable emotions, etc., I think I'd have a better understanding of women, and I hope it would make me a better man in all ways. I don't think there's any fun in being a guy, some of the expectations are difficult, scary, and uncomfortable. I've thought about these aspects a lot, and will stop rambling for now. Be safe, Linda

[Tara D. Rose]

It is to me more fun to be a girl. You see women have power, so much power. And as men we see the power they have. But they are born with it and life may be hard for some of them and even hard for the pretty ones and of the beautiful ones. Then they think they have it so hard. Let them be an average man for a day or two and see how many doors are so closed to them. It isn't equal and never will be. So yes it is more fun to be a girl. They win it all, they call the shots, they break the hearts. They never have to be lonley, but if they are, ???

[ArleneRaquel]

I love women's clothes, makeup, the feel of hose against a hairless leg. To me being a girl is much more fun, expensive, and time consuming, but O love every element of it.

[Marleena]

Georgina since I'm stuck with being TG I'm going to do my best to enjoy it. Besides a little makeup, a wig, and dress and I can have hair on the top of my head again and knock a few years off my real age. What's not to like?:)

[STACY B]

Way more fun to be a girl an hang out with girls ,,Who want to be a smelly ol man an be hanging around outside in the heat all dirty an hairy,Greasy ,,Drinking beer an getting bit by miquitos an knats ,,Sitting around the burn barrel ,,Or going fishing an hunting in the heat an cold ,, When you can be clean an smell good an go an get your nails done an hair done ,,An clothes shop all day just hanging around with the ladys talking an laughing ,, If ya want to be a man go ahead ,,, An bring some beer there almost out !

[Michelle 2]

It is way more fun being a girl. Let me start a list why.
1) I have learned to take better care of my body and skin so I can look younger & healthier as i age.
2) I can see the world from both the male and female points of view. Freddy might say its the best of both worlds and a real eye opener.
3) It is so much fun to pamper oneself even though it is expensive, but I think we all all worth the effort. Why work hard if you can not enjoy the rewards.
4) Purchasing new colorful outfits is yummy! Slipping them on for the first time is always a thrill for your senses.
5) Getting noticed and complimented by our GG sisters tops it all off.

Im sure the other ladies here can chime in and make this a fun thread.

Up until 6 years ago there was no girl part of me that I understood. So, in making the comparison:

I think it's more fun now that I'm able to be a girl when I want to be a girl!!! I enjoy both of my genders, but now I HAVE both of my genders!!!

So I think it's more fun to be able to be a girl! (when we want) :)

[lori m crawford]

as for me as a cd-ts i wood to have the life as a women if i had started at 4-5 yrs old being one but starting being at one at 40-60s is hard or is it i thank women have more fun being a women or ack like it am i rong seem like they git to wear an do more in life than a man wen it comes to dressing

[Kate17]

I stopped in to a couple of stores this evening and as I was looking throught the dress rack - with nothing in particular in mind, I thought about how much I enjoyed this. Then a woman came up next to me looking at the dresses also and the store had some nice music playing - she was just singing along to beat the band - it was contageous. I never heard any guys singing along when buing a suit or such. I really got into all the pretty clothes I was looking at - and wishing I could wear.

Also, when out, it is a thrill and a half when some guy comes up and say, my don't you look sexy tonight - Now I know what he is after but darn it feels good. Now thats fun!!

[Eryn]

More fun? Of course! For a few hours at a time I can be someone completely different from my drab self, enjoy privileges of self-expression that I am normally forbidden, and see the world from a different point of view.

If I can steal from the title of a book:

As a man I exist; as a woman I LIVE!

Deb,
A very thoughtful and very accurate, at least in my case, also. :)

[daarleane]

It all depends upon your circumstances and your perceptions (economic and social). I feel free when I CD, i.e. I feel free from having to act like a man. For some reason I can relax and enjoy things greater as a woman. I just like it better. I know that real women feel a lot of the same pressures we men do, but I do not have to compete in their world because I am just visiting for a while.

[5150 Girl]

Yea, I'm another one who will say not so much more fun, as it is more natural. For me "dressing" is about "correcting an error"
Now i will admit, having somone hold a door for me, or oggle me or otheer things that happen along these lines that make me feel even more like a woman is a bit of rush. I don't know if it's whishfull thinking, but yea, pepole treat me better as Wynonna

[Barbara Ella]

There are two intertwined questions in the OP. First does a TG enjoy being a girl (looking like a girl) more than being a man. Doh! No brainer here, or else we would not be doing it. The basis of comparison here is male. Although i like my =male side, my female side is so much more, in every way. the second is does a GG think it is more fun to be a GG. No basis of comparison, so they will fall back to all the non fun times they have known. they have never known the change that is in our life from the change from male to TG. I like the two sides to me, but my feminine presence brings me so much more peace. I accept that.

Barbara

[Bree Wagner]

I don't think it's more fun; it's just a different kind of fun that I didn't really let myself have for 30 years. Crossdressing is just one more thing I can do to enjoy life and as I'll paraphrase "Having a little variety in your fun is the spice of life!"

-Bree

[Britney Johnson]

Hugz Girl.... Being a girl is so much more natural for me as well. I don't feel so aggressive and stop to smell the flowers more as a girl than I ever do/did as a man. I, hoping to transition, only see the positive side of it all and feel whole as a woman. For me this is one of the most important things in life. To be happy with myself and not care so much about what others think. They do not know what us girls go thru daily. Love and Strenghte to you during your journey. We all have some sort of journey we are on...lol

[Cynthia Anne]

Just like the saying ''blonds have more fun''! Go ask a true blond if that's true!:doh::eek::hugs:

[Kate T]

My standard answer here I'm afraid. You think it is more fun having a lower average income, higher incidence of sexual, physical and emotional abuse, less likely to be able to vote. Please do not insult women if you truly think you are trying to understand them.:brolleyes:

Now if you are asking is it more fun to go out as a girl, that is a different kettle of fish! :)

[Cheryl T]

The grass is always greener as they say.
We all have our own perspective on what is more fun.
I wouldn't say it's more fun, let's see...all the shaving, epilating, tweezing, makeup, wig, breastforms, padded panty ... yeah that all seems like more fun than putting on a pair of jeans, a t-shirt and playing B-ball with the guys. It's more emotionally releasing for me though. I feel so different about myself and seem to enjoy things more, but all the effort I put into looking pretty and being a woman isn't what I would call "Fun".

[kimdl93]

Its hard to compare. I would say that women have a good time doing things that men, often, would find to be chores - such as shopping, and can turn rather mundane tasks, such as a pedicure into a very enjoyable social event. But there are things guys enjoy that would bore women to death.

[jennifer easton]

I love acting like a woman, but Geeeezee what a lot of work!!!!!!!! it takes to whip this old buffalo into some what of a person that has a feminine resemblance to a woman, but like all the sisters here I do love it, OH Geeeeze how I love it!!! Jenni

[Beverley Sims]

From Suchacutie,
"So I think it's more fun to be able to be a girl! (when we want)"
Yes when I desire it I can always go back.
No! The grass is not greener on the other side.
I do enjoy being a part time girl.

[Dannigirl]

There are pros and cons of everything. It is only more fun because YOU make it more fun, I have a fun time no matter how I am dressed. I have fun getting ready to be dressed as a woman but I do not become a woman, I merely act what I think to be the part of a woman. It is like anything else (for some people), for me if I don't have to do it day in and day out it is fun, such as chopping wood, great to do for a few hours but if I had to do it as a job, forget it. Same with being a woman for me, glad that I can wake up as a man dress, shower and be out of the house in 20 mins. if I have to. But yes, when I play the role of a woman I have an awesome time, but thankfully I don't want the full time job.

This is closest to the way I feel. I wish I could wear dresses and all the rest, heels and nylons, all the time. I wish very deeply that I could look completely like a pretty, young, ultra-feminine girl. I hear people saying that we wouldn't want to deal with the discomfort for many hours, but I do...I don't get tired of my dresses and heels. I'm happy wearing heels all day for a week if circumstances permit. The minor discomfort is even part of the fun. The one difference is that I do have sexual feelings for dresses, although my sexual feelings for my wife are stronger. Before I met my current wife the two parts of my sexuality didn't mesh very well, but she's accepting and my level of internal conflict is much lower than in the past.

[Jenny Doolittle]

It is impossible to answer this question for any of us because we are either one or the other at birth, but I sure enjoy crossing over the gender fence as often as I can to play.

[cyndigurl45]

I find being female a lot of fun for a variety of reasons, the biggest is self expression, I'm having so much fun just being able to be me, if I feel silly I can wear a silly outfit and no one really takes notice, being able to even act silly is fun, as a guy I could not be, act dress silly guys are not supposed to act that way..... if I feel sexy I do my make-up and my LBD and hit the clubs.

[Claire Cook]

I'm with Kim on this. Either when I'm here in the house, or running errands, or seeing the dentist, I just enjoy it so much more when I'm dressed. I find myself more open with people, less shy, and more aware of other women -- what they are wearing, what they are doing. Granted, we never had to deal with PMS, or childbirth, or the other hassles that GG's face, so I can't look at it from their side.

[Debra Russell]

If I am presenting as a woman I am free and having more fun in the moment; however, that moment does not last nor do I have the responsibilities of a GG's life -- so I dress for the moment and the escape it provides me -- and I love it..............................Debra

[katie_barns]

Duhhhhhh. Shop for men's clothes, then shop for women's clothes. Mens cloths cover the man. Women cloths create the woman.
I could spend a paycheck and all day cruising makeup. All the colors and possibilities. AWWWW.
Spa's are mostly for woman.
GG's take a lot of this for granted. CD's understand what they have.
Most men feel they have to act a certain way [manly]
Girls can be themselves.
Being a girl is way more fun.

[BRANDYJ]

I think it's more fun being TG then it is to be a woman or a man. Is that a third sex? I think so.

[Jamie Hugs]

I love the time spent as chantell, it is the funnest thing I do from picking out clothes trying them on and getting home to transform LOVE IT.

[Antoinette]

I like both sides of me equally. The idea of being a girl minus the hormonal issues and pregnancy is amazing. Deep down I'll always be a guy and will always think like one, the only difference is I've meshed my feminine side along with it

[phylisanne]

every thursday i become phylisanne and i have the most fun and i always get praises from the people in the bar that we go to .and it always makes me feel like a woman.

[Simply Joslyn]

Well from what I know woman can express themselfs a whole lot better as a guy you hide most of your thoughts in your head because who wants to hear a guy complain about stuff? Nobody, now girls complain and they will most likely be listened too, so its part freedom of expression I suppose. Also women have the most amazing body features so rounded and curved it represents elegance and beauty, a guy is like a block we got short and tall blocks, fat and skinny blocks, but in the end its a block, woman vary in shape because their body are more variable. Woman have a much bigger clothing selection aswell, for instance a girl can wear guys clothes and noone willl give a hoot, you put a guy in a dress without all that we do to class ourself up to look like women and someone is gonna cause a major fuss without a dought. For me I like to be a different person and its not really much of an adventure to be another guy is it, aswell as the beauty I feel looking at myself in the mirror, so yeah I definitely think its more fun being a girl

[Dawn cd]

I think the words "fun" and "girl" in the OP color the kind of response they provoke. They describe a pre-liberated female who plays dress-up in frilly gowns, who likes going out to parties because she doesn't have the responsibility of being a traditional breadwinner or managing anything more complicated than her kitchen. Now if you used the word "happiness" instead of fun, and "woman" instead of girl, you might get a different response.

[minalost]

I don't know if it's more fun to be a girl than a guy, but I DO know that crossdressing is fun. I would do it if it wasn't.

[KateSpade83]

It's more fun to be a guy than a girl. Men are better at sports because they have the muscles and build for it - like doing a high bunnyhop or a 360 on a bmx bike. If you do Pro sports being a man pays better. But sports like tennis are ok for women. What's fun for women to do besides cheerleading, gymnastics, buying clothes, and wearing sexy clothes and feeling good? But what if you were born an ugly woman? - Then life would suck as you'd hardly attract a man unless you were a sugar mamma.

But I would have rather been born a pretty asian woman.

[Frédérique]

I often read from CDs that it's more fun being a girl and I would like to know why. I don't think that it is more fun being a girl if you are a girl. It may only seem so if you are a guy.

It’s fun “being” a girl, at least in appearance, if you are a guy, no doubt about it. I get the feeling many girls would like to enjoy the “fun” of being boys, and this has modified my stance over the years, to the point where I now see myself primarily as a boy who likes to dress up as a girl, purely for fun. Of course, there’s no free ride, since the clothes change your entire psyche and fill your head with girly dreams. To me, it doesn’t matter if girls enjoy being girls – I would assume that THEY also wish to “break out” of their own gender imprisonment, and have some fun…
:)

BTW, on occasion I have asked girls if they “enjoy” being girls. Reactions are mixed. I either get a bewildered look, like I’m asking her if she enjoys breathing air, or I get a shrug of the shoulders, followed by a barely audible, “of course…”
:o

[EjayeCD]

Sorry, I love to be a girl when I am a guy.

[NathalieX66]

I like both, I do both, I live both, I go out as either/or on any given day....being both girl & guy have their ups and downs.

[Jeninus]

I often read from CDs that it's more fun being a girl and I would like to know why. I don't think that it is more fun being a girl if you are a girl. It may only seem so if you are a guy.

When I was just out of college I was facing the draft when the Vietnam War was undergoing massive escalation. I did my duty and saw 3 1/2 years of my life lost forever. Yes, at that time I certainly envied women who could just get on with their lives.

I've discussed the happiness issue with my wife and understand that in the life of a typical girl in school and college there is enormous tension, struggle for status, back stabbing, envy and scheming going on. Men are fairly oblivious as to what is going on among the girls; they - the guys - usually have only one thing on their minds. And, as we all know, the prick has no conscience - nice girl, or fallen woman (can we say "sl-ut?" and no guy is thought of as a "sl-ut" or a "fallen man"), it makes no difference to the sword.

Women have body issues their entire lives. Girls who are overweight or obese don't get dates, don't get married, or have to marry well below their status. Women see their precious beauty - if they have beauty - fade as they age. As they grow older, they face things like breast and cervical cancer the treatment of which ravages and permanently weakens their bodies if they survive. And don't get any woman started on the issues of unwanted pregnancies and the pain of child birth.

What we enjoy as CDs is just the surface glamour of wearing the kinds of clothes that most women don't wear if they don't have to. Look at the typical 50 - 65 year old woman in the Mall and ask yourself (assuming you were about her age) whether you would trade places with her? I guess 95% of the time the answer is no.

Compared to all that, we have it pretty good. I would say that taking Georgina's actual question at its face value, the answer would have to be that: if you are a GG, it's not more fun being a girl - than we experience being a boy. The grass is actually not greener on the other side.
