Does wearing panties everyday help?

[mikeyp]

So, I've mostly been an at home CDer, but wearing panties makes me feel so good, like I'm "hiding" something. I'm 22 and in college, not really ready to CD at school yet.
The problem is panties REALLY arouse me, like they put me in a trance, does this feeling eventually go away and normalize? I feel really uncomfortable being in class when I'm insanely aroused by myself.

Also, I feel really ashamed and "delicate" when doing this and can't look anyone in the eye. Also, I tend to avoid friends when dressed like this even if they can't see what I'm wearing. Does the sexual urge ever "normalize"?

[Krisi]

You will soon forget that you are wearing women's panties. After all, women don't get aroused by wearing women's panties.

I have been wearing panties for a few years now. Eventually, they become just "underwear". To be clear, my panties don't have lace and pink hearts on them but they are women's panties.

[Ceera]

Yes, after a while it remains nice to feel that you're wearing panties, but it also becomes 'normal' for you, and less distracting.

[mikeyp]

Thanks guys, I'm really really trying to get over the embarrassment of the whole thing and the fact that I actually love the feeling of it all. I really want to get on with my life while still feeding some of my desires, so I'm going to try to incorporate at least some article of clothing in my life.

Bras never did it for me though, lol. I prefer just panties. They make me feel like I have an attractive girl with me all of the time.

[pamela7]

yes, it normalised for me, too.

[Leahann]

Having worn panties for 20 years, after the first month or so i didn't give it a thought.

[Mink]

They male me feel like I have an attractive girl with me all of the time.

Pink Froydian Slip! (with lace!) uh!

[CynthiaD]

I wear panties every day, and wouldn't even consider wearing anything else. They're just my normal underwear, and I never even think about them. Yes, the feelings will go away.

[Crystal Beth]

At first there was a thril for me that I was underdressing in public. After a short amount of time, wearing panties just became par for the course. Now it does not automaticaly feel "sexual", unles I am trying to dress sexual, it is just a part of my everyday existance, like putting on a shirt.

[prettytoes]

Yup, just underwear...and mine does have lace and pink hearts. For me, the prettier, the better. One thing I have noticed is that when I have to wear guy underwear for Dr. appointments, etc., is that they are a lot less comfortable than panties.

[Erica Marie]

There never was a real "thrill" for me. I wear them because they are comfortable. In time you too will just throw them on and be on with your day.

[Lily Catherine]

I have underdressed with pragmatic excuses (thigh highs in the winter, hehe), and while initially there was a thrill it became normal over time. High waisted lingerie does make a major difference, however. I don't think twice for your usual panties, whereas panty girdles have that hug around your waist. Being self-aware is key however.

Heck, the first time I wore a petticoat I went into such a trance; that I had a hyperfeminine gown over it didn't help matters. It's a sense of novelty I guess.

[Nikkilovesdresses]

They make me feel like I have an attractive girl with me all of the time.

That's an interesting way to put it. I realised years ago that if my girlfriends had worn pretty underwear, enjoyed keeping it on at least some of the time during sex, and slept in it, I might never have developed such a need for wearing it myself. I just loved it- wanted to see and touch it every day. After spending thousands on beautiful lingerie for various women, I realised that almost none of them actually like it.

This has been enormously disappointing.

But I do my part to keep the industry afloat...

[Sandra119]

I wear panties every day been doing for years I wouldnt feel right wearing male under pants

[Claire Cook]

Hi Mikey,

I'm sure that others have felt the way you do. Really, there is nothing to be ashamed of, and I hope in time those feelings will go away. I've not worn any male underwear (except undershirts) for more than 20 years. I still love the feel and the comfort.

[Rachel05]

When I was younger, much younger and maybe still at your age, i used to try and use my cross dressing as a sexual thing, i am still not sure if it was or if it was me trying to convince myself that there was a really good reason for being this weirdo that used to like dressing in womens clothes, as time marched on and I got older, the sexual stopped and the pure acceptance and pleasure of crossdressing came to me and I found my inner peace with being a crossdresser

I used to go out and I felt so excited wearing panties and then I would meet my friends and the guilt and weirdo and ashamed feelings would envelop me, I would promise myself I wouldn't do it again and of course I did, because we do and now wearing panties is just about full time for me, no guilt, no weirdo, no regrets, no feeling ashamed, no worrying about other people, just me doing what I like to do, what makes me feel good

I wish I had this forum to come to back in my early days, it would have helped immensely

You have the support and you know you are not alone and you can share our experiences, if I have one regret, it is taking so long to be able to call myself what I am, a crossdresser, I wasted so much time

[Carla4Guage]

"I have noticed is that when I have to wear guy underwear for Dr. appointments, etc., is that they are a lot less comfortable than panties." Why do you "have" to wear guy underwear for Dr. appointments? I quit that many years ago.

[NicoleScott]

Here's a different view: bras don't arouse you but panties do, so you may have a fetish for panties. Nothing wrong with that, but if so you might want to reserve your panty wearing for other times, not when you should be focused on important things, like your classes. If you have a fetish, don't count on it normalizing. When you're alone with your panties, have at it.

[RADER]

I have been wearing panties 24/7 for over 12 years now. Do not own anything else.
I am under dressing wearing a bra now for about 80% of the time. Getting braver in my old age.

[Jaylyn]

I wear panties but really haven't thought about them being a sexual object. I do admit that just the material they are made of though did have me aroused at times. Since I have started wearing them more especially all the nylon of my hunting clothes to stay warm they don't arouse as they used to. Panties n panty hose can keep you warm while sitting on a tree stand bow hunting, although the thought has occurred to me that if I slipped and fall they would be a sure way to get found out by the doctors or nurses in the ER. You have worry about those things in a small town.... Might make the front page of the newspaper.

[NicoleScott]

Jaylyn, here's the headline:
"Crossdressed Bow Hunter Lands in Hospital After Falling From Tree While Shooting Antlered Doe. Oh, the Irony"

[CONSUELO]

Don't worry. Many of us have gone through the same feelings. Wearing pretty knickers is a great sexual thrill at first for many of us cross dressers as there is a fetishistic component to our cross dressing. Over time it normalizes. Don't feel ashamed and just deal with folks normally. They don't have X-Ray eyes. You're perfectly normal and OK.

[Savannah_Skye]

I graduated college a few years ago and during college is when I started underdressing which typically consisted of a sports bra and panties. Initially the panties provided a sexual thrill (the bra didn't do anything sexually), but this went away with more wear. It was distracting though at first.

I totally understand the ashamed and delicate feeling but this goes away. Just beng patient with myself was key for me and eventually I found more comfort and confidence in those situations.

[Robin777]

You state that you are 22 yrs old. I can remember what it felt like wearing panties at that age and I had the same problem of it be arousing. When I started wearing panties full time after I was married I had some of the same feelings then, then after awhile it was just underwear that I liked much better than tighty whities or even the male version of women's bikini panties. It will normalize, you just got to think of them as underwear.

[TrishaLake]

well Ill take the opposing view...I do not wear them 24/7 but a few times a week to bed and sometimes to work. To this day ( and I 49) they are still my favorite and I still get aroused. I wish could 24/7 but life gets int he way...I am not into transitioning so I am a crossdresser and I am a regular guy sometimes too! so panties at softball just doesn't work for me:)

[Janet Bern]

buy a pair of womans bali briefs or Jockey briefs,,, The SA in the store will tell you your size.. I only wear womans panties now.

[wendy]

Given half the chance I would wear panties everyday, but having to change in the men's locker room for workouts ... that is another story.

[Lena]

I wear cotton hipsters every day at work. I do have satin and lace but that is just weekend wear. Still not sexual. I think most of the arousal is related to doing something you think you shouldn't. Once you realize that it's okay to wear them without remorse or regret, they're no longer sexual but really comfortable.

[Feminine1995]

Hi! I exactly know how you feel LOL! Im 22 too and im at school studying and when wearing panties or strings i feel so sexy and cant forget about it. Sometimes it does even attract me and i cant concentrate lol. Im doing this for a few weeks now but it got better not much though i think its a psychological issue i gotta change my thoughts about that underwear from "sexy" to something normal. ^-^

[PamTG]

I know for me it was purely sexual when I first started to wear panties but then after awhile I just really enjoyed wearing panties more than wearing my male underwear, they just make me feel better and the fabric feels great against my skin. Its not really a sexual feeling anymore and I think that for some it can stick around and for others it just becomes so normal that its not out of the blue to wear them. Though I do get kind of turned on when I am shopping for panties and I am not really sure why and I have that rush but once I slip them on they just feel like they complete me as a person overall, I am not sure if that makes sense.

[sometimes_miss]

Eventually, they become just "underwear".
Perhaps; but my boy underwear isn't made of nylon and polyester, and doesn't slide along my skin the way my girl things do. So whenever I'm wearing female underthings, whether consciously or not, I'm constantly getting tactile feedback telling me I'm wearing female clothes. add a bra and it doubles the effect, consciously or not. Our minds are always working in the background, and those subconscious feelings make a big difference in how we feel.

[EllenJo]

Yes it will normalize. Eventually you will feel normal in panties and male underwear will feel like a big cotton diaper. I have been wearing panties daily for 20 years. There are some occasions that I wear my plain cotton hipsters, usually under low rise girl jeans or when I go to the doctor, but mostly nylon briefs for daily wear. I love control panties also. They give you a secret hug all day.

[Dinsdale]

I first starting wearing panties when I was 11 or 12 , it was a sexual thing going through puberty , along with other female clothes.
As time wore on , it became less sexual and more "normal".
I don't own any male underwear and love picking out a pair of the many many panties I own, when I go to work each day.
Bras and stockings are worn when it is cooler, and I wear jacket or long trousers.
But I think , if I didn't wear panties each day , I wouldn't feel "right" and certainly not comfortable.
Absolutely nothing to be ashamed off , really who else cares😊

[deebra]

Try a thong and tuck, this should take you to an even higher level; like on a weekend when you don't have classes and you can just enjoy.

[Amber42]

It really is tough to break through the mental barriers we put up. I know I always worry about underdressing and somehow getting caught. But this, like many things get better with time.

[Alaina Ann]

The thrill goes away. Wearing panties 24/7 is just natural for me.

[Tracii G]

Been so long for me its just natural now.

[MichelleDevon]

Does it normalize? Yes, I think so...like other respondents I have been wearing panties of various kinds for 20 years. I still have some male underwear in a drawer but I haven't worn them for 20 years. My favourites undies are loose fitting satin French knickers - and even now they still generate a frisson...but it is an everyday thing and is transient... But go to the little boys room and sit down for a pee and seeing and feeling those panties is still a stimulus. I do wonder if the transient nature of the stimulus is a function of increasing age and the prostate medication but I still love to see and know what I am wearing.

Watch out for hospital visits though...I attended hospital for a routine quarterly review of my prostate treatment. It never occurred to me that they might wish to do a rectal examination... It wasn't the panties that embarrassed me though - it was the stockings and garter belt... After the event I can laugh at myself but at the moment he said he was going to do an examination there was nowhere to hide that underwear!!!!!! LOL He was fine; professional; and afterwards we had a brief chat about it - no problem - I really needn't have worried - but we do , don't we?

I'm not a panties-wearing girl.
:)

[Amanda_Nicole]

It definitely normalizes. I started wearing bras and panties in college too. I wish that I would have moved pass it but girlfriend (now my wife) and life sort of stopped it. Now in my midforties, I now wear panties everyday.

[Silkylover]

I wish I was brave enough to wear every day.... Go you ...😊.... How long does it take before the nerves wear off.?????

[lisa_vin]

It will normalize and at some point in time you will dread the days you will have to wear men's underwear for doctor's visits (unless you are brave enough to wear panties and not worry about any comments from the doctor or the nurse should you need a shot in the rear).

[sarahcsc]

Hello MikeyP,

A lot of this has to do with your age as well. Being 22 years old means you have a higher sexual urge compared to some other members here.

You can't feel sexually aroused forever because your brain will eventually get desensitized to somethings. So I suspect it will normalize... until you discover 'something else'. :)

Have fun exploring!
Love,
S

[Charlotte_P]

It has never been an arousal thing for me. But definitely a mood, attitude thing. With such a huge selection of colors, fabrics, lace, designs, I wear what fits my mood most days. If I have a long day of meetings or really boring stuff to do, I'll throw on a thong that's tight and never lets me forget it's there. It serves as a pleasant distraction from the boring events going on.

Sometimes at big events such as weddings or big family get together s, the wife and I will wear matching or similar panties, garter belts and stockings, just for fun.

Charlotte

[Lisa85]

You'll just have to experiment with type and size. Size in one type may not match another type. You should even be able to wear thongs or nylon bikinis without tucking. They tend to hold in the goodies well enough IF you don't go by size charts. start smaller than charts

[Leighcdmd]

I wear full cut nylon briefs by Teri, Carole or VF or bikinis/high cuts by Jockey. Have two men's briefs in my drawer and wear them once a year for my physical. Have been wearing panties 24/7 for at least 10 years now and nothing could feel more natural.

[gailwisher]

I have wearing panties for 6 years and they feel so right and make me happy.

[Jeninus]

Like so many here, I wear panties (Bali) 24/7 and have been doing that for so many years that I don't even notice that I'm wearing *panties*.

Like most here, I keep a few pairs of tighty-whities for doctor visits or if I'm going somewhere where I know I'll have to change. I'm dressed almost every evening, so the rest of the gear also feels pretty normal, i.e. bra with forms, slip, hose, skirt, earrings for my pierced ears, etc. I don't get aroused, per se, but just feel relaxed, normal, whatever.

So yes, familiarity breeds "normalized.":battingeyelashes:

[Robert]

There is a reason that there are dedicated lingerie stores and, to my knowledge, no equivalent for men. Also, the lingerie section of department stores are ten times bigger than the men's underwear section. Why?

The only reason I can think of is that women like wearing nice underwear. So, why shouldn't you?

[JOHANH]

I have done so for a week or so at a time. For me I have found myself so self conscious that co-workers would know that it was too much for me to handle. So have resorted to just being fem at home. Do very much miss the feel of wearing panties.

[AmyVanessa]

I wear nylon panties everyday now, though I still occasionally wear my male boxer briefs. I'm no longer nervous when I'm buying them, but I do try to be discreet when I'm changing at the gym

[Barbara Jo]

It helps in the sense the it can make you feel more "complete"' even in male mode .
Personally, I have been weaning panties 24/7 and a bra daily since I have retired.

I should say that I've been a CD since I was about 8 years old (68 now) I and presently live alone.
So, I also wear panties and and nightgown to bed nightly.
I basically live as a woman when at home. :)

BTW, my favorite panties are VF "Lace Nouveau" full cut briefs. They are very classy and very feminine.

However, like already stated, wearing panties becomes the norm after a short while and wearing cotton men's briefs seems so alien and wrong.

The same can be said about even dressing completely and as I am dressed now at home (panties, bra, nylons, slip, dress, high heels etc) and it makes me feel so normal, natural and complete. :)

[Herbie]

Wearing panties at least part of every day helps me feel good. I'm new to dressing and find it so satisfying when I put on my panties.
