A question for the closet Crossdressers

A question for the closet Crossdressers
I've noticed since I joined here and talk so openly about crossdressing
That I catch myself almost talking about it when I'm with family or friends
Like you should see the new bra I bought or the fabulous color of nail polish I found
Any one else notice this ?

Hi Barb
I am always careful first to protect my wife and family from any embarrassment and secondly for my own privacy. I dont broadcast my gender or anything associated with it. Why would I? So, while my wife knows I am still putting her first although it may not always seem that way.

:hugs:

The only people that know about my crossdressing are all my friends
Here on this forum

The only ones who know and I talk with is my hairdresser:)
And some friends at the Transgender Clubs I go to.

I'm not around family much they live about 300miles away...However with a few friends that I trust I will call them over for a drink and show off my new dress..

I'm not in the closet, but I don't talk about bras and nail polish with people. As a matter of fact, I don't know many GG's who do either.

Maybe it's an age thing.

There's almost too much here -- so much to read, so much to try... it's like feeding an addiction.

And all those success stories about happy SO's; and even the stories about failed relationships made worse by not saying something years earlier...
So yes, I get noticably tempted to do something like wear a skirt home , or say "There's this event I'm going out to...", or to indicate that I want to bring my clothes home...

especially my lovely blue custom-made skirt fresh from the dressmaker tonight... (Only problem is I don't have a matching blouse yet...)

TADA!!!! Give that woman a PINK STAR!

[Barb Valentine]

OK I used bad examples
But I think you know what I mean

[Joy Carter]

I think it's called being shallow.

Hi Barb, The only time I openly discuss things of this nature is when I am here with friends and "sisters". I have almost slipped a few times when in a social setting and the GG's talk about hairstyles and new fashions and the like.

the big problem here is forwarding jokes etc. to work contacts, and vice versa from them onto a thread.
A few innocents could easily get exposed !!

I notice the more I embrace it the more i find my self making little comments in public i should not. Nothing to big but i do have to be careful though the ones i have told have accepted it but i think the ppl i have not I i do not want to find out they will not be so happy about it.

No, not risque. Customers at work often put things on their commercial accounts. On screen a list of authorised signers will appear and I have said things like "Well you're probably not this Susie- except maybe on weekends.."
Do get some interesting reactions!:D

I'm kind of like Sharon. I don't talk much about lipstick or nail color to anyone. In fact, the only time it comes up is if I receive a compliment or something. Someone will say something like: " Nice shade of lipstick" or "cool nail polish". I usually have other "fish to fry" with conversations and my mind is usually on anything but my appearance. Ericka

One time at work, I was refferring to (another worker who was disgruntled) as having her "panties in a wad", and my boss didn't understand the expression, and so he asked me if I was one of those people who wear panties to work. I was awfully glad that I did not wear panties to work (there), because I was able to offer "inspection", which he thankfully refused. But I do have a problem with even little white lies, so I suppose someday I will probably out myself. :hugs:

[Siobhan Marie]

I'm like that as well, I don't talk to my parents about things like that. They've got enough to worry about. I certainly wouldn't talk about it work either, there are some things that you just don't do! The only place I talk about things like that is here and to my friend Lisa.

It is tempting to offer a comment or compliment about some femme thing. Especially, when there are a couple of GG's in the mix and they say something like, "Well, he's a guy and he wouldn't understand about ......"
