Would you date yourself?

[Judy-Somthing]

OK here's something I was thinking as a crazy Cross-Dresser.

When you look in the mirror, Would you date yourself?

I think I would, I hardly recognize myself.260322

[Yoshisaur]

I totally would, something about dressing up gives me a more playful and happy attitude which I really like.

[Eva Bella]

Oh my god yes. I would date Eva in a heartbeat!

[AllieSF]

Haha, this is an occasional repeat question here. The first time I replied I wrote, "Hell yes because I already am!" That reply still works for me.

[Pat]

Darn right! And let me tell you, I would totally score, too! ;)

[sometimes_miss]

Aaaaaaahhhhhh, preaching to the choir. Always fun. Always get the answer you want.

[Dana44]

Yeah I sure would. It would be nice to clone myself. LOL

[BettyMorgan]

I wouldn't stand me up, that's for sure. ; )

[MissVirginia-Mae]

Yes, I would date Miss Virginia in a heartbeat :hugs:

[Robin414]

Wow, interesting take on the thought Judy! As a 'guy' I strive to be 'that guy', and as a girl I strive to be 'that girl'...what I'm attracted to!

Yah, I'd totally date myself!

[Diane Smith]

Nah, it would be too boring. There would be nothing new to talk about, and she would always have exactly the same opinion about movies, food, etc.

- Diane

[docrobbysherry]

Sherry IS my girlfriend at present!:love:

And, as pretty as she is, I trust her completely. Even when she's alone and surrounded by folks partying in bars and clubs!:drink:

[Robin414]

Great point Sherry, as usual! ☺

[AmandaM]

No, I'm into blondes. The more Swedish the better. I'm a brunette.

[Teresa]

Judy,
Someone took a picture of me talking to another CDer across the table, when I saw the pic I commented that I looked like a slimmer version of my sister, would I date her ? No !

[Just4me]

i would totally do me

[Tracii G]

Sure, we would have a lot of things in common.

[Sandyhappygirl]

No I wouldn't but then there is still work to do on the look. Ask me again next year and I hope to say yes!

[Lily Catherine]

With the fictitious assumption of my dressed self as a separate person (a GG that thinks and talks like me, and probably looks like me) I doubt we would break the ice fast. Despite my occasionally lengthy writings here, I am fairly reserved in person, so one of us will definitely find the other awkwardly quiet (trust me, it isn't endearing in the slightest) on first impression. My interest as well would also be how said person sees me as well. Or whether for that matter whether she likes to crossdress as much as I do.

I might find my dressed self attractive only because ''her" fashion sense is my own, as much as it may as well be what I find flattering at some point in time. Mind you, I still wish I were prettier in my own eyes.

[PaulaQ]

Oh I definitely would - but only my former self. Dating myself as I am now wouldn't work. We're both tops, and we aren't sexually compatible. (This is the only person I've ever been able to identify that I wouldn't have sex with post transition - namely me.) I would definitely date the old pre-transition version of me. He'd be my bitch though, lol! Oh I'd make him suffer, you can believe that!

I'm not sure if old me would date new me. I think I'd scare the hell out of him!

[reb.femme]

I think I look reasonably decent for my age, but I seriously get high on the smell of GGs. Maybe that's pheromones, but whatever, my insides twist and knot in the nicest way when enamoured with a female of the species. :daydreaming: So I suppose no is the answer after all that.

[Alice Torn]

Oh, yes, Alice is my height too, six foot six, so hard to find a single tall attractive lady me age, and Alice would not turn me down, like most all GG's.

[iGenny]

Why yes, yes I would. Thinking about it, I choose a style to dress AS that I would like to be seen WITH.
Plus if I could lose the beard I'd be totally hot. (OK, not really, but a girl can dream... .)

[Kate Simmons]

My only problem with that is that my "guy" side is a "cheap Charlie".:heehee:

[JennykBailey]

I look like my mum, that would just be wrong 😀

[Juliana817]

I would totally date myself, I think it's because when I dress I attempt to emulate traits and styles I'm attracted to.

[MarcellaMcNul]

No, when I see myself in the mirror I try to act like I don't know me

[AnnieMac]

Gee I dunno, I mean Annie is really hot and all that, but she is much too much high maintenance for me.

[Traceyjo]

When I look in the mirror I see this woman who I am strongly attracted to and makes me excited. She is definitely someone my male self would love to date and take to bed.

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Judy :hugs: , ABSOLUTELY !!...:daydreaming:...

[Meghan4now]

Date my self? I do every time I talk about my childhood or early work experience. I even f***** my self when I started my own business!

I guess I am vaguely cute enough? I like who I feel like I a presenting, and would find myself fun. Does that count?

[SamanthaSometimes]

Funny you should ask this question. I remember the first time I fully dressed and looked in mirror, I was so surprised and pleased, that's exactly what I said, "I would totally date myself".

[CarlaWestin]

Sure, I would date myself. That would be cool to go out on Halloween. Carla the Dominatrix with her little sissy carla.

[IamWren]

I date myself pretty much every day, like when I say "oh, do you know that song Come On Eileen?"
*crickets*

Or if I say, "Hey remember that scene from that movie Caddyshack where Chevy Chase..."

*crickets*

I'm totally dated every day. :straightface:

[lily1974]

Oh I would totally get into trouble if I dated myself.

[rockerreds]

Absolutely- I am my own type, especially when dressed

[Pat]

I suppose the one downside is that I'm taller than myself when I'm in heels. Which can be OK because I like tall women. ;)

[Crissy Kay]

Oh yes, I would love to meet a real "Crissy", I bet she would be lots of fun!!

[LydiaL]

My goal is to be much more attractive while dressed than in drab. If I see a hottie in the mirror, in my own mind at least, then some success has been achieved.

I can always dream that another person might long to date Lydia. :hugs:

Oh well, at least for now she is my alter ego's very best girlfriend.

[Lorileah]

<----- This? Really? Oh heck no! I am demanding and a diva and opinionated. I spend way too money on clothes. I am too gregarious to just pay attention to one person...

[Jodi]

Sure. As long as she picks up the tab for the date.

jodi

[FrancescaDienes]

Yes I would. It was only when I looked in the mirror in full get up and wig (a long blonde one too, I never realised blonde hair suited my normally brunette follicles) that I realised what people meant about my striking eyes and my great smile, really gave me a boost in confidence.

[prabha]

Nope nope

[Lori Kurtz]

Would I date a woman who is expressly designed to appeal to a guy like me, who has all the physical characteristics that turn me on, and who loves turning me on? Oh, yes yes yes. If only I could find such a woman somewhere other than in a mirror.

[Jenniferathome]

I sure hope I could find a woman better looking then me! Wait...! I did and I married her.

[heatherdress]

No - I still see a guy, and I would not date a guy.

[Katherine L.]

Absolutely!

[OCCarly]

Why not? I'm already in love with her!

[Robin414]

I look like my mum, that would just be wrong 😀

Locking the brakes... screeech! Come to think of it, so do I, yah, maybe I wouldn't be dating myself...but on the other hand my mom was pretty hot in her day and I'd totally date a woman who looked like her but not her...

OK, this is getting weird, I'm off to play the song chain game...or Google some makeup tips 😦

[Ceera]

I try to be the kind of attractive woman that someone would like to date, and I certainly do get some romantic attention when I am out en-femme, from those of either gender.

Yes, I would probably be interested in dating a woman who looked like I do when I go out as a girl. I'd be more inclined to do so if she was a GG than if she was TG like me, but being TG wouldn't knock her out of consideration.

[Mykaa]

Oh the irony here... I think I allready have, or am I just easy? :eek: If I cant laugh at myself someone else will!

[paulaprimo]

heck no, as i'm not that desperate plus the fact that i like masculine men and
not men that wear woman's clothing... :D

[Georgette_USA]

Would never happen. Neither of else would make the first move.

[Sometimes Steffi]

I would totally date Steffi. She's kind of cute and a real flirt. I'm an introvert and dating an extrovert like Steffi is a good way for me to come out of my introverted shell.

[Michelle55]

Hell Yes!!! Oh wait.... I'm married. Maybe not such a good idea.

[Claire Cook]

Hell Yes!!! Oh wait.... I'm married. Maybe not such a good idea.

... and my wife would be jealous....

[pamela7]

No, I am not my type.

[Maria 60]

Of coarse I would, I dress to copy the image of how I want a women to look like. I'm everything I would like in a women and I would kiss on the first date Lol

[lauren21403]

I have always thought when dressed as a lady "I'd do me!"

[Tiffanyselkoe]

A girl who can rock a LBD and who likes cars and motorcycles?! Heck yeah!

[GeorgeA]

No - I still see a guy, and I would not date a guy.
I was about to post: "No, I don't date men" when I came across this reply. I do not present as a woman, I am a man on both sides of dressing spectrum.

[Sheila11]

Can't date cause I'm married....... But.......

In my younger years the saying was "I sure wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers!"
��

[Tommie.]

Wow what a topic... I have to agree with Diane... too boring.... I love my SO so much I can't even imagine it.

[Anneliese]

Of coarse I would, I dress to copy the image of how I want a women to look like. I'm everything I would like in a women and I would kiss on the first date Lol

I agree with this. Without question.

[Taylor186]

Dustin Hoffman made news a while back when he said he wouldn't give Dorothy (his Golden Globe winning alter ego in Tootsie) a second look if seeing her at a party. I feel the same about my femme self.

[soha]

Yes I would, when to be woman completely

[KimberlyJean]

I have never dated a woman like me, I seem to end up with short woman with a different sense of style than me. I like to dress in current fashions and am a mature girly girl. I like jewelry, make-up, perfume, and looking stylish. I love my wife very much but her style is not mine. I probably would never meet me let alone date me. At least I get to be Kimberly .

[sara66]

Other than I have a great personality, I look to much like my sister. Too weird.

[Bruce64]

Sure yes, I crossdress to date myself and hav a good time.

[Lilly 40C]

Yes and, I would date you too!:battingeyelashes:

[gokatiegirl]

Absolutely without question

[Helen_Highwater]

No no no. Far too high maintenance

[DeeDeeB]

Not a chance. I prefer younger women, like my wife.

Dee :fairy1:

[LelaK]

If I had an identical female twin of myself and if she were more attractive than I, I wouldn't date my male self, because I'd be lesbian, but I, as her, would date a female clone of her, if I were even more desperate than I already am.

[Martha G]

Yes. I make a very attractive woman and I do not look like myself at all when dressed.

[Krisi]

I would except that I already know what's between my legs and that my boobs and butt are fake. I would walk down the street with me though. It's an interesting thought.

[ClosetED]

If a GG looked like me and liked me, i would certainly love to date her.
Hugs, Ellen

[AnnieMac]

No way that could happen. I'm SO out of my own league. :)

[Valery L]

Since my alter ego is kind of a projection of what I want in a woman, yes, I would do it. It would be my ideal date in some sense.

[laura.lapinski]

For a long time I would say yes to that. I don't know how good I could make myself look these days without professional help with make-up and have some time to dress to the nines. I probably would still date myself. It would be kind of narcissistic, don't you think? But at the same time, it would be pretty special and a melding experience.

[Heidi Stevens]

Nah, this girl is too high maintenance!!
:)

[Anneliese]

Many say it's critical to find someone who will teach you about new things, and in an ideal world, I pretty much agree.

However, FAR more important in my book are basic tastes and basic values. Those would already be there if you dated yourself. In addition, I'm think i'm pretty hot for a 62-year-old. As someone up-thread said, I'd probably be too scared to ask myself out though.

(I wish there was a general thread for outing oneself, rather than all the personal, usually short-lived ones.)

So...rather than starting a new short-lived thread, i will just mention that after agonizing years (decades?), I told my daughter today at lunch. I figured it wouldn't be a big deal to her, and it wasn't. First person outside of a therapist's office I've told. I thought she might have suspected. She didn't.

(now that I've gone briefly off-topic, I request any responses please go to a thread deemed more appropriate)

[GenieGirl]

I definitely would but I think my gf would be jealous of me dating me lol.

[JoselineWalthorne]

Yes and no?
Yes if we are only taking into account looks.
At the same time I feel like it is one of those that would start well but i feel like the relationship would be unhealthy eventually disintegrating for the greater good. Neither of us would be able to sleep. We would stay up all night asking each other stupid questions past the point of being so tired that a cohesive thought is impossible to form

[cindy777]

Very time I look in the mirror that is the woman I would love to be and yes I would date myself.

Especially love the clothes she wears lol

[Karine]

Indeed, sometimes I look in the mirror and say to myself, you 're pretty much good looking and classy (yes my woman side is a little bit egocentric :)). So, yes, if I were single and a girl looked like me and had the same fashion style than me I would likely ask her to take glass to know her better.

[Clodagh]

This is an interesting question, as I think the answers, which I gues outsiders might not expect, touch on the core issues behind why many of us enjoy dressing in the first place.

Yes, like many here, I would go out with my alter ego. Why?, well I suppose Clodagh is my own design. She dresses exactly how I find attractive, compliments her best features in a way that I find desirable. I wonder though how far does this extend for people? Do you just want to meet your femme self? Do you want to touch her?, kiss her? Are you sexually attracted to your femme image?

[Krisi]

I already posted about knowing what was between my legs and that I had fake boobs and butt, but after thinking about this thread for a while, I decided I would date myself because I'm sure I would show me a good time.

[Anneliese]

This is an interesting question, as I think the answers, which I gues outsiders might not expect, touch on the core issues behind why many of us enjoy dressing in the first place.

Yes, like many here, I would go out with my alter ego. Why?, well I suppose Clodagh is my own design.

Yes, yes, yes, and yes.

Her name is Denise.

(named after the first girl I was turned on by in (I think) fourth grade. I chose Anneliese because I seem to recall Denise was taken. I was shocked there was at least one other (spelled) Annaliese.)

This is 100% on-topic.

Who here has heard of this book, which was written by the same author who wrote Star Trek's "The Trouble with Tribbles"?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Folded_Himself


Daniel repeatedly encounters alternate versions of himself, ultimately having sex with himself and beginning a relationship with himself. He learns that the changes he has made to his timeline have erased all traces of his childhood and early life. Finding himself lonely and hoping to correct the situation, he jumps backwards in time, where he meets a female version of himself called Diane. He begins a relationship with Diane. Diane soon becomes pregnant and gives birth to a son. Shortly after, Daniel and Diane separate, and Daniel raises his son in 1950s America. As Daniel ages, he becomes more obsessed with returning to the relationship he had with Diane, and then with the thought of his own inevitable death. He spends much of his time at a house party set in 1999, enjoying the company of dozens of versions of himself at different ages.

[CONSUELO]

Yes, because I know what I like. You have inadvertently raised something interesting here. I think all of us cross dressers are bit narcissistic, some more than others.

[Amy Lynn3]

Yes, I would date myself, because of my personality, desires, taste in cloths, hobbies and so many other things going for me. If I had to date me on looks and looks alone it would be iffy, but other than that, if I could clone myself you would see twins at the movies.

[StarrOfDelite]

I love this thread, even tho' my first reaction was to have a flashback to the creepy scene in Silence of the Lambs where Ted Levine is prancing around semi-nude in front of a full length mirror, and says, "I'd f**k me!" :sad:

As a man, I would date myself, because I would think I have a terrific androgynous physique, and also I'd have knowledge what a tigress I am between the sheets.

The real question is whether or not I would date my male persona? I'm not sure I'd like a man with so many masculinity issues. lol! I prefer guys who are taller than me, and who have burly, linebacker body types.

[Lori Kurtz]

I wonder though how far does this extend for people? Do you just want to meet your femme self? Do you want to touch her?, kiss her? Are you sexually attracted to your femme image?

Yes, I want to meet my femme self. And I want to touch her and kiss her and ... well, let your imaginations run wild, girls. That's what my imagination does, and that's what it's all about for me.

[DonnaP]

Sure why not it's not all about looks it's personality and having fun together

[Anneliese]

This is one of best threads...can't let it die...

I dress with the idea of being hot TO ME !

Everything I wear and present is what I want in an ideal woman.

[Kiva]

I wouldn't date me no matter what I look like. I'm an aashole! Glad my wife loves me! :)

[Melissa in SE Tn]

Hell no... In guy slang, I would be a "two bagger "!! One bag over my face & another over Mel's face!!!

[Adelaide]

oh yeah! And I'd caress my long hair all the time!

[AllisonS]

In terms of appearance, that's kind of a bar I set for myself. If I was in a bar (I'm single) and I wanted to strike up a conversation, would I do that, with me? Depends on the outfit .. hehe

[colector381]

I would have to say no, but that's got more to do with the fact that I don't have any want to date or anything like that

[PrivateXDresser]

Actually, no. I want someone who has different experiences and frames of reference. Someone just like me would be boring. There'd be nothing to talk about. Here's the conversation: "You wanna put on a bra and some panties?" "I'm already wearing them, can't you tell?" "Oh, yeah. Sorry." ... "You wanna go bowling?"

[Adriana Moretti]

I wouldnt...I can be a total be-otch xoxo

[Alexa CD]

I would definitely date myself if I got the chance, I think I'd be practically perfect for me as strange as it sounds. I'm pretty attracted to my female version, I try to look like women I find attractive after all. I really would if I could.
