Crossdress Bucket List

[JulieB]

Think alot of people have have general bucketlist, What would be on your crossdressing bucket list. Myself at least a week straight, living enfemme 24/7, in the company of like minded individuals..

[Teresa]

Julie,
I guess most have two , the possible one and the impossible one !

Top of my possible one is to wear the dress in my avatar along with many others on a lovely cruise . I don't know which bucket to put this one in but I'd like to be at peace with all my family and just be accepted as Teresa , I'm not sure if a flying pig would fit in a bucket !!

I can see this is one of those ongoing threads as more ideas come to mind , it's a regular but I still enjoy it .

[Jackiefl]

I think there's a thread already in the archives about this topic.

Hello Julie,
I have asked Santa to bring me a very large pink bucket
luv J

[Jackiefl]

I believe Teresa posted a thread about it

Sometime this year

[Charlotte7]

Oh, why not have an impossible dream?!!

Me, I'm thirty years too late for this one, but, given the chance, who wouldn't want to be the Rose of Tralee?!!

[aprilgirl]

Hi Julie, I see you're new here, so from one Hoosier to another, welcome to forum.

I don't have a bucket list item per se, other than finding the time and more opportunities to get out.

[Darla L]

Funny you should ask, I was thinking about it yesterday. For me one of the downsides to cross dressing is the amount of time it takes away from other hobbies. I would love to be able to play a round of golf dressed in a golf skirt, top, forms and all.I actually have taken a few practice swings en femme. Sure makes you aware of what your arms are doing!

[sometimes_miss]

I think there's a thread already in the archives about this topic.

There are several. Because threads get closed so quickly, there are many duplicates.

That said, there's not much on my CD bucket list. Maybe a pretty wedding gown.

[Beverley Sims]

Getting my ears pierced, one day.....

[DIANEF]

I remember my mother trying to get my cousin (who was stunning) to enter for that many years ago, but she was having none of it. I'm reminded of Father Teds' 'Lovely Girls' competition whenever I see the Rose Of Tralee mentioned :)

[BLUE ORCHID]

Hi Julie :hugs:, Welcome to our forum, When you are here you are home.

What ever your questions are there is a 99.875% chance that one or more of us will have an answer for you.

There was two things on my bucket list one was getting my ears pierced, ( Done )

the other still on the list is getting a Wedding Gown. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Orchid ..o:daydreaming:O..

[Ressie]

I've already done quite a bit that I never thought I would. I really don't have any crossdressing goals at this time.

[Traci H]

I seem to have a constant running list in my head. Kind of wrapped in a pink fog it seems. The list expands and wanes, but seems to be ever present with both short and long term items.

Going out, getting a makeover, having my nails done, buying a new wig, etc. most hoped for item, some acceptance from my wife.

[Becky Blue]

Happily I have ticked off many on my original list, perhaps a full week staying at a nice hotel somewhere, with lots of shopping time and opportunities to meet up with some of my friends.

[Amelie]

I'd like to buy an antique hearse and travel to different car shows. I'd look like Lily Munster and my friend would look like Robert Mitchum when he played the religious guy in Night of the Hunter, complete with tie and hat.

[JulieB]

Thank you!

Imagine if you could win both the men's and ladies club championships at your local golf club. I'm sure that would be a first.

[Helen_Highwater]

Julie,

Teresa's post about wearing prompted me to think about how nice it would be to attend a swanky do wearing a flowing evening dress. Of course given I'm never likely to attend such a function in drab sort of puts that one at the difficult end of the list. Plus I'd need to loose a couple if stone to do the dress the justice it'd deserve.

A more likely item to add would be a night at the theatre. Kinky Boots springs to mind as a possibility but a chance to glam it up with a night at the opera, flying pretty into Milan for a performance at La Scala, with a pre show meal, of course, that's sounding tempting. Bank account breaking but tempting nevertheless.

[pob]

I’d like to get my hair cut a little more feminine, something that could pass as a “pixie cut” maybe.

Go to an event where I could dress up a bit, maybe with some makeup (I dont use makeup)

Develop the self confidence to go out and fully express myself dressed however I want :P

[Georgia K]

This has got me thinking as I'd previously not had a bucket list for this . Maybe to do it more often and just go with and just accept it

[Lea]

I would like to work in an environment that allows me to dress. I have always worked in fields helping people and would like to continue that as Lea.

[CarolBrown]

I’d like to have a wedding boutique allow me to try some wedding dresses... Maybe one day I can cross that one off...

[Tracii G]

Never had a bucket list I just went out and did things.

[Alice Torn]

I think it would be to be dressed to the nines, and dancing on a dance floor in public. And after that, to purge a final time, and be done.

[Cheryl T]

I think that for me it would be to come out fully to my family and be accepted.
I have a cousin who is gay and I am seriously thinking about telling/showing him and his partner. I think they would be accepting (at least I hope so).

[Eemz]

> I am seriously thinking about telling/showing him and his partner.
> I think they would be accepting (at least I hope so).

Oh I really hope you get to do that Cheryl. It sounds like they have some level of acceptance in the family so they should be able to understand what that means. You're probably not going to be the first trans person they've ever met either. And even if it doesn't work, I would think it very unlikely that they'll "out" you. They'll know what that's like, either from personal experience or friends.

- - - Updated - - -

Getting back on topic... I don't really have a list. I just want to go and be myself now and live my life.

[alwayshave]

At this point I think loosing enough weight to wear a really tight dress.

[Tracii G]

Cheryl T most gay men in my small circle think I am weird because I dress.
They really don't understand trans people all that well.
They are just like the regular people in society so to think your gay friends will be accepting who knows for sure? Maybe drop hints before actually coming out.

[Pixie_94]

A final and definitive purge out of shame.

[Joyce Swindell]

Since being married to my wife of ten years I have been able to cross a lot off of my list. Not too many left at this point ....but my hair is long and I would like to get it "done" while dressed. I too would like to do a week long Cruise in fem. The wedding dress has some interest for me too.

[faltenrock]

I've doen almost anything a woman would do in daily life.

One thing I want to do is taking a 'grachten tour' on a tourist boat in Amsterdam next year when it's warm and nice. I've been to Amsterdam dressed a few times already, but have not done that part yet.

Other than that I seem to be running out of things I've not done yet.

[Krea]

Getting my ears pierced, one day.....

Yes, this is my next CDing wish as well.:daydreaming: I might raise the subject with my wife after the holiday season.

Other small things would include painting my toenails, buying some nice ankle boots.
A real big thing would be going out in public in MIAD mode. (perhaps somewhere more LGBT-friendly like Brighton)

[DaisyLawrence]

Krea.

Pierce the ears. They are only ears, we all have them.

I saw two gay men on TV telling their story about how they were nearly beaten to death in Brighten by some homophobic idiots. The point is that nowhere is safe late at night after men have been drinking. The real LGBT friendly places are the counrtyside, the rural idylls like where I live. People may not like a MIAD but they sure as hell aren't to to be rude to one that's for sure. :)

[Charlotte7]

...A real big thing would be going out in public in MIAD mode. (perhaps somewhere more LGBT-friendly like Brighton)

Krea, I'll let you into a secret, something that I don't think is very well known, you can do it absolutely anywhere, any place and (within reason) anytime.

We all go on here about passing and blending, but something that is seldom mentioned is good old fashioned 'hiding in plain sight' or just being you, being you. I'm never going to be anythinhg other than me, being me, but that's the important thing, I'm me, being me.

The thing about it is, that you can be on a busy high street, or as I was yesterday, in one of the country's grandest cathedrals, you can be standing right next to someone and they won't see you, they won't notice you, they won't care about you.

Have you ever noticed that when you're out and about in the town how everyone is wrapped up in their own concerns, how, when people are walking along taliking about a problem with the dog or such like, they don't keep stopping what they're saying, to talk about people that they're seeing on the other side of the road, because they don't, they're just concerned with the little bit of pavement that they happen to be on.

And, even if you're at a crossing waiting for the green man to appear and there are twenty other people waiting, they're not bothered by anyone else that happens to be waiting, all that bothers them is whether or not the green man will appear before the approaching bus goes past.

I know all of this because I've seen it and I've done it, no I do it.

And what's the worst that can happen? Someone will say to their friend "Look that's a man". And then what? They'll move on. And then what? They'll forget all about you? But possibly not, they may say to someone that evening "I saw a man dressed as a woman today". And then what? They'll have their tea and forget all about it.

And you know what, for all those who wear full makeup, and there's nothing wrong in that, everyone should do everything they want and can do to be happy, exactly the same will happen to them, the same people will say "Look there's a man in a skirt" and everyone will move on and the universe will continue to decay at a very slow rate.

[Sandra_Dodds]

Never thought of it as a bucket list but there are a number of feminine things I would like to do, including - having my nails done properly, wearing false eyelashes (tried and failed once), shaving my arms so I could wear sleeveless dresses (my upper body for that matter) and getting my ears pierced. None of that will happen unless the wife experiences some kind of "road to Damascus" style epiphany.

One goal I did achieve this year was buying a leather skirt - always wanted one and this year found one online.

[Krisi]

I don't think of having a "bucket list" but I do have goals. The biggest as far as crossdressing is concerned is to get my wife to go out in public with me as Krisi. Not just once, now and then. And another would be to have her call me Krisi when I'm dressed.

[Tracii G]

I have a question for the over the pond ladies and it has to do with CDing.
You all talk about a "high street" what exactly is that?
I get the city center thing that I assume it used to be in the US we say we are going down town.
We have shopping areas all over town but not many shops actually down town anymore just bars and eating establishments.
I was just curious about high street.
I just go anywhere I want anytime I want girl mode or a 50/50 mix and it makes little difference to the people around me. They are in their own world on their cell phones.

[Charlotte7]

Tracii, it's the main street in a town centre where all the shops are

Hers's an example for you of a typical High Street: https://previews.123rf.com/images/irstone/irstone1510/irstone151000338/46585597-rochester-uk-may-16-2015-rochester-high-street-at-weekend-people-walking-through-the-street-passing-.jpg

[DaisyLawrence]

Oo Oo pick me pick me. Charlotte, that is Rochester in Kent. Good choice, lovely place and typical English town. Tracii, how lovely is an old English High Street?

[Amelie]

I think the US "Main Street" is similar to the UK's High Street.

I been to the UK some years ago. A friend had business in Canterbury and I went with him. I could only find a few photos I took of the high streets I visited. Canterbury, Whitstable, Herne Bay.
I always felt a connection with the UK, especially after visiting. So, recently I did a DNA test and while I'm not English, I am 64% Irish/Scotish with the rest being French and Scandinavian. I thought I had more French in me than what the test said. So, I do have a connection to the UK and hope to someday visit Scotland and Northern Ireland where some relatives live. That would be a bucket list thing.299355299356299357

[Helen_Highwater]

Traci,

This may help.

High street (Old English heahstræte) was the word before 17c. applied to highways and main roads, whether in the country or town, especially one of the Roman roads. In more recent usage, it generally is the proper name of the street of a town which is built upon a highway and was the principal street of the place.

[Bobbi46]

When my time comes I want to go dressed as Bobbi and the final peice of music would have to be by Queen " I want to break free" also I think that would be a fitting epitaph for my headstone.

[t-girlxsophie]

Through the years, and the last three years in particular, I have had so many experiences that would probably be on a CD bucket list if I sat down and thought about it.not finished yet doing new and exciting things

PS The high street, USED to be where there were lots of shops,the high street where I live is a ghost town, most are dying

[Krea]

High Street: A collection of buildings where one can examine merchandise, before actually buying it for half the price on amazon.

Daisy - Yes, i'm just a little bit cautious as i want to do this with my wife's blessing.

Charlotte - It's mostly about respecting my wife's feelings. She has been very supportive about my CDing, far more than i could have possibly hoped for. I don't think she would object to me going out as Miad, provided i show a certain amount of discretion. She does not want her relatives or work colleagues to know about this (a position which i understand absolutely) so the best time would be when we go away for a break, where the chance of seeing anyone we know are as small as poss.

The point about avoiding certain places is good advice. I always avoid the most likely trouble spots: football grounds, late-night venues etc anyway, but as you say nowhere is 100% safe.

[Krisi]

We have very few of those "high street" areas left in the USA. Shopping malls took over the individual shops on a downtown street and now they are falling out of favor as Walmart and the Internet become more prevalent. Some small towns have attempted to restore "main street" but it's usually just restaurants and maybe antique shops.

[Sophiaro13]

Go out shopping with a girl friend, loved to do my makeup and get dressed with another CD friend like any other girls would do!!

[Connie D50]

Julie

I had a very good year crossing things off my list. Went to the beach (even got nice tan lines) when to a play all dressed up.This year like Darla I would love to going golfing.

Connie

[sandy_folsom]

Mine would be go to a transformation studio to get a makeover and then a boudoir photography session. Maybe afterwards go to a night club

[Asew]

I don't really have anything. I do keep sort of a wishlist of items I want (since I have only been building a CD closet for about a year now, still have things I wish to have).

[Erika]

The bucket keeps getting lighter. Went to a couple of concerts, rang in new years and went rafting in girl mode. Still want to go to a baseball game. Maybe this summer.

[Brocdol]

My top of the list would be to go to a beach late at night when there is still some people but not many and go for a walk with my wife. I'd be wearing bra, thong and a nice short summer dress. And for the wife to be wearing the same kind of dress. Holding hands. I have told her and she has to think about it. So hopefully one day.

To go to the shop's and do some lingerie and dress shopping and to go and try them on in the change rooms.

[Roxanne Lanyon]

I guess CD'ing would just not be CD'ing without having a wife, right?
I guess the rest of us are just out of luck, correct?

Roxanne (Divorced, Feminine and happy!

[Rebekah_uk]

When I walk through the local golf store, some of the ladies golf wear always catches my eye.

Would love to play a round of golf dressed in a nice top and golf skirt on a sunny day.

[Rachel Anne]

Just have a nice night out. Dinner and drinks with non-irritated people.

[HollyGreene]

Top of my list is to get my makeup done by a professional. I'm psyching myself up to doing it next summer when my family are out of the country.

[Jill Mansfield]

To finally fit into that Little black Dress i have had forever.

[Jean. Ann]

Mine would be to go to the mall complegely in boy mode .
Buy clothes and put each item on, get a makeover , wig
Etc and have dinner and leave totally enfemme

Jean Ann

[KymG]

Probably more of a fantasy bucket list, but i would love to enter a womanless beauty peagent, and win!

[Stacy Darling]

So, I'm thinking of writing my list.

Then thinking of placing it on the inner side of my bucket.

Now should I use a waterproof marker and should I place the list upside down?

MMnn?
Sorry just thinking of our wanting children!
Stacy!

[Jayne44C]

My list has just two items. One I prefer to keep to myself.

The other one is a walk into MAC or Sephora in boy mode, leave in girl mode for a nail appointment and then a photo shoot.

[wendy]

Not sure if I will ever get a chance to fulfill any of these CD bucket list items, but here goes :

- be Wendy for at least a whole week. Which means no drab clothing at all. So all my daily activities I do in drab will be in Wendy mode (like going to work, shopping, …)
- buying my own wedding dress.
- trying a transformation service like Emerald Fantasy in Seattle (or similar services in other cities).
- learn how to apply makeup professionally.
- dress as Wendy for Halloween (I still haven't had the gumption to do this yet).

[Lacy PJs]

Totally impractical and highly unlikely but I'd like to wear a dress like Cinderella wore to the ball in the recent Cinderella movie.

Thank you Charlotte7. I think this is an excellent post and if we look around when out very true.

[Rileyaz]

I just drove across the country for two days en femme for the entire time. No problems anywhere. I even checked into the hotel with no problems. The front desk lady needed to see my drivers license and said 'you look different'. I told her I was much younger at the time. We both laughed.

Since I was in a hurry I didn't stop except to get gas and use the restroom. I also bought some fast food when I was stopped and again, no problem anywhere. All that being said, nobody gave me a second look anywhere. Even in the restroom I was basically ignored just like everyone else.
I just acted like I belonged there and it really isn't an issue.

[Cynthia_0101]

Well seeing as I have already scratched shopping for myself off the list, I would have to say at least going out dressed once and maybe find some other CD's in my area that I could meet up with.

Cynthia

[daviolin]

I threw my bucket away ten years ago. Ever since my wife accepted me as who I am. I can dress when ever I want, plus keep my wardrobe nice and neat in my closet and dresser. And that's good enough for me. Daviolin

[Tabitha_Lynn]

A few of my biggest would be as follows:

1 - I'm working to get my weight down to where I look good dressed (to me). This is my first "must do".
2 - Get a professional makeover
3 - Go shopping with girlfriends and try on beautiful clothes
4 - Go out on the town with girlfriends
5 - To have a vacation in femme mode for at least a week but two would be devine

[Miss V]

A pretty obvious one for me. Just to go out in public in full female mode.

[BostonBrenda]

Yes dropping weight in a healthy way so I can fit into a slinky red dress with CFM heels

[Robertacd]

Myself at least a week straight, living enfemme 24/7, in the company of like minded individuals..

I am going to knock that one off my list this May at Esprit.

https://www.espritconf.com/

[Angie G]

I do have a list some I have done. 1 I seen a battleship
April 20th I will be seeing Stevie Nicks. One I may see is to wear a skirt driving to Georgia later this year to see my 2nt great grandbaby :hugs:
Angie

[Robbin_Sinclair]

Me? Having no body hair.

I shaved my legs below the knee seven years ago and had so much blow back. It is one of my favorite feelings of feminity. To be honest, my body hair is relatively fine and a liberal use of heavy scented body lotion is a pleasant alternative.

For me, this type of self indulgence makes me remember why women live longer then men. We enjoy life more completely. It’s that simple .... i say...and smile. Love to all ... ❤️robbin

[Georgina]

Walking through the front door of my new house in full wedding dress. I live alone , I have the wedding dress and the new house is on the way. Mind you the greater excitement will probably be the new house.

[LadyStig]

Biggest on my bucket list is to just pass. I’ve never even come close yet.
