what will you do?

[rah]

what will you found out if your son is a crossdresser?

[debstar]

What would I do it I found out my son was a crossdresser? Nothing.

[Kate Simmons]

Nothing, unless he wanted to talk about it. :)

[Shelly Preston]

A lot will depend on how I find out.

If he has no idea I know then I would do nothing

If he knows I know then I would just tell him to be himself and enjoy life.

[Saikotsu]

I'd be a loving, supportive parent.

[Cheryl T]

Teach him some makeup skills that took me years to learn.
Help him find his style and make sure that he NEVER feels the shame, guilt and fear that I experienced at his age.

[Jaylyn]

I'd tell him every one should be themselves as long as it is not harming any one else. I would tell him to do every thing he does in love and remind him everything we do has a consequence. If you can live with the consequence then go for it if it will bother you then be very careful the road you take as some things we can't come back from. I have four children and they have no idea. If they did, two might be accepting, one I'm not sure about but one would not so I am very careful. I love each one and wouldn't want to tear their world apart.

[Ashley Lyn]

I'd be thrilled.. no more hiding the truth from him!!:battingeyelashes:
ps: step-daughter saw me today.. :doh: she told the wife that she 'doesn't care'..:o

[STACY B]

Tell him I hope to God you stay that way and NEVER decide to Transition, Just live Laugh and Love your Two sided Life and have as much Fun as you can before the End comes,,, An no you can't borrow my stuff go buy your own !!!

[Allisa]

Get dressed and go shopping together.

[Lorileah]

Take him shopping? Grab a beer? Watch Orange is the New Black?

[joank]

No son but daughter knows and keeps her distance from Joan. Close to the male persona however.

[ReineD]

It depends.

If it was an expression of his identity (if my son was gender fluid), I'd be supportive. If it was strictly a method of sexual expression then I'd stay out of it. Mothers have no business getting involved in their sons' sex lives. :p

[Candice June Lee]

After discussion, I think we would go shopping. But we guys have a supportive talk. So he knows it's cool.

[reb.femme]

I can probably say that none of my sons are crossdressers, as they all know about me and one of them can out as gay, when he was still at school.

My eldest son wasn't overly chuffed at the news of me, but accepts that's the way it is. The youngest and the middle one go to all manner of dress up parties, rubber, costume etc., so I'm pretty confident they would have said by now,...but you never know :heehee:.

[Jaime Noel]

I just had a chat with my 4 year old, how the high heels I was wearing were in fact my shoes and not mommy's. We are trying our best here to not reinforce societal norms. Hopefully if he identifies as anything outside the norm, he will feel really comfortable with saying heya....

[Kandi Robbins]

Not having a son or brother and living with sisters and daughters all my life might be why I'm here! I'd like to think I'd love him no matter what.

[Lily Catherine]

My father literally confronted me with this question, while I was driving no less. The answer he wanted was pretty obvious given his stance against it.

If I found out my son was a CD, I would definitely bring it up to him. It would be unexpected for sure, as it was when my parents found me out. I certainly wouldn't be overjoyed over him being One Of Us, but then again it wouldn't be too much of a letdown akin to my mother's "I always had a SON!" rhetoric. Of course, my first move would certainly be to hear him out.

[Tammy Lynn Tx]

put a padlock on my closet, then take him shopping

[Tracii G]

Let him know its ok and tell him I love him.

[Melanie 0339]

What would I do? If he was doing it for sexual gratification then I would'nt do anything, But if it was more then that i'd tell him not to worry try to reasure him that he isn't weird or a freak, then introduce him to Melanie and take him out on a girly shopping trip. xxx

[Gabby6790]

Wow, now I feel bad about myself. First off, I know I would accept him but at the same time I would want to protect him. Being a kid these days is so difficult. I mean I wouldn't want him to crossdress just like I want to not be overweight. I guess I am wrong but I don't want him to have to deal with the mean kids.

Case in point, my wife was taking him with her to get a pedicure. She phoned be and asked if he could get his toes done. I thought she was joking but soon came home to find out she wasn't. Now I know this was my hang up but I was worried for him. I didn't show that to him but I did make his mother remove it before he went to tae kwon do. Uggg, was that wrong. Meanwhile I talked my wife into getting a pedicure with me a couple of weeks a go where I got a glossy clear coat. We discussed it later and the plan is next week to get a dark bluish color. So hypocritical.

[Jennie2]

I'd be supportive in every way possible, accept him for what he is and then maybe get some tips from him.

[trisha kobichenko]

there are a lot of variables, age...his relationships etc...I suppose we would talk about it, and ask if he knew about me :)

[Emme]

Teach him some makeup skills that took me years to learn.
Help him find his style and make sure that he NEVER feels the shame, guilt and fear that I experienced at his age.

Spot on!!!

[Adriana Moretti]

im never getting married.....or having kids so...................thats never gunna happen

[MissTee]

It obviously wouldn't change how I felt towards him. Would still love him the same. My response would depend on his age and his need for me to inject myself into his life.

[Ms Bernadette]

I would support him. Help guide him him along his own path. I had a hard time in my journey. I would be upset if he wasted as much time as I did trying to be happy.

Bernadette

[CarlaWestin]

I would be loving and understanding and concerned for his safety.

:straightface:

I have a son?

[Sarah Doepner]

I may find out soon enough, I'm letting him know sometime in the next week or so. If he does crossdress, I'll offer the same love and support I always have. If he feels he wants any support or interaction with Sarah, I'll welcome that and if he doesn't, it's his choice, but I'll be leaving my closet door open a lot more.

But we'll have to get together to talk about it on days the family isn't here to watch football. I mean, it IS football and family-wide rivalries need our full attention. You remember, the good of the many outweigh the good of the one (or two)

[bridget thronton]

Love him and support him

[daviolin]

My sons already know of there fathers alter ego. So I think they would of told me by now if they were. Daviolin

[Mink]

I would disown him and force him to become my daughter!

[flatlander_48]

It would be the perfect opportunity to explain where things sat for me and to pass on what I know and have discovered. Certainly I would offer my support as needed, but I would tend to keep my distance mostly. This is a very personal journey and everyone has a bit different spin on it. You have to find your own path and your own approach.

DeeAnn

[sometimes_miss]

Let him know its ok and tell him I love him.

I have no kids, but this I think would be the only appropriate move.

[Robin414]

Just 'come out' slowly, start with unspoken androgynous attire, let it happen...for lack of a better term.😊...naturally! Or maybe out him in front of everyone at the table during Christmas dinner ...that would be really sweet too😠

[Rachel05]

I would want to give him all the help, support and advice I never had when growing up as a cross dresser, it can be an incredibly lonely place to be until you can find that inner peace with yourself and back in my early days, there were no internet forums, actually there was no internet for the masses, so it was tough

I woud want to avoid him having to go through that lonliness

[donnalee]

Tell him "Wow, that's a really nice dress!"

[JaytoJillian]

LoL, I envision this HILARIOUS scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlD7YLsqYLY

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Rah, That all depends how you find out , I would respect his privacy .
If he was to come out I would help and encourage it.:daydreaming:

[Raychel]

As long as he was wearing his own clothes all would be fine.
If I caught him wearing my stuff, we would have to have a chat.............

[Maria 60]

Well I guess it would be the same as if he told me he was gay, I would support him but really wonder if I would reveal myself to him. Good question makes me think.

[Sarah-RT]

Easy, be a good parent. I've found as I've learned to accept myself that I can accept others better, if I had a gay son I would be okay with that too. Parents want what's best for their kids, understandably but what's best isn't always what's right
