For me it was at the age of fourteen when I started skipping school to go out for walks during the day dressed in my sisters lingerie, nylons, lipstick, blouse , skirt and head scarf

I actually was dressed starting at the age of four by my two older sisters so we could play house

I started dressing by age 7. I didn't even know what a crossdresser was until I was a teenager, and that I was one.

As far back as I can remember. I used to put on my Moms clothes and it felt right.

I started around age 11, but I did not realize how much dressing was apart of me until I was around 15, by then I had started a small collection of lingerie.

I was wearing bits and pieces of mother's/sisters clothes at around age 6 or 7. It really snowballed from there.

I was 6 or 7 when I first started wearing fem clothes but I really didn't understand what it was until much later. I always felt it was wrong to do it and was really frustrated with my need to dress. I have since come to know why and what it is and I am good with it.

I guess I realized that I liked to 'dress up' around 5 years of age. That was when I started putting on my mother's and sister's panties & slips.

I had been "forced" to wear my sister's panties a few times(by my mother) when there were no clean Y-fronts. I hated this,and protested loudly. It's interesting how my 5 year old logic lead me to regain control of my equilibrium by wearing their undies of my own volition :heehee:

It took another 5 years for me to discover the delights of bras, pantyhose, and soft nylon nighties....but that's another story.

The desire was there since preteen years. I was believed the misconception that crossdressers were gay and I knew I wasn't gay, so by deductive reasoning I couldn't be a crossdresser. There must be something else wrong with me then.
At the age of 51, I "discovered" online that there were others like me. Reading their stories I thought - they lived my life.
I have spent much time since then getting comfortable with my new life and it feels good.

About age 5, plus or minus. I started wearing a playmates denim skirts and she'd put on my pants. I knew then that this was definitely me although it would be ten-plus years before I ever learned that what I was doing had a name. I instictively knew I shouldn't be talking about it "publically" -- at least not 45-plus years ago. Anyway, shortly after I started wearing the skirts, I moved to tights, panties, bras. I convinced a friend that it would be neat to try on his sister's clothes -- so things kept escalating. So, I guess you could say that the desire to crossdress has been with me ever since my earliest of childhood memories.

03-17-2007, 10:34 AM
About 5... Maybe 4. I'm not really sure. I really didn't know what it was called till I was about 8, and didn't start doing it more regularly till about 12, in hiding, of course because I was told it was wrong. What did I know!

The intetest started around age 10. It became stronger and I started wearing my mom's things when my parents were out of the house in the summer around age 12, but didn't know it had a name. Later I heard about crossdressing and that it was done by gays. I knew I wasn't gay so I was very confused for most of my life. 40 years later, I am only now coming to terms with myself.

Oh I guess it was about 6-7 when I started wearing my sisters sundress. From there I slowly added stockings and heels....then panties and bras. Then the first time I sat down all dressed up pretty and put on some lipgloss and blush, it was all over....Ive dressed ever since...and always will!

I started as long as I can remember I would say around age 4 or 5. As for actually admitting to myself that I'm a crossdresser and actually creating an official closet for me to hide in that would be around my mid 20's. Jocelyn

Around age 12, I think. I used to dress in my Mom's stuff whenever she wasn't home.

Same here. I remember making a garter belt from a regular belt, and some rubber bands.:D

I also retrieved some black high heeled sandals that my mother had thrown out in the trash. I smuggled them up north, in my rolled up sleeping bag, when we went on vacation, and wore them out in the woods. I hope she never checked out the lumps in the sleeping bag, when we were loading the car.

I remember when I was 5 or so getting into my sister's room and taking her panties and crinoline slips. I would put them on at night and wear them in bed. I would hide them under the mattress or between the bed and the wall in the morning. Mysteriously they would disappear and show up again in my sister's room. When I finally figured out what was happening I was worried that I would be confronted but never was. I guess my parents figured I would out grow it. I think we all know the odds on that.:rolleyes:

I started when I was about 4. My babysitter started dressing me in her little sister's dresses and tights. I spent all day every day as girl when I was with my babysitter and her sister. She was my babysitter for 7 years, and none of her neighbours knew I was a boy.

I was about 10. For a time I was in the hospital and when I got home I stayed in a bedroom on the first floor of the house since I couldn't climb the stairs. My mom kept some of her clothes in the closet in that room. we all know what happend next...

03-17-2007, 02:51 PM
Let's see....I was about7 or 8 and we got an unexpected early snow and my parents had not yet gotten me snow boots for the winter. So my mom let me wear her pointy toed, slightly heeled boots so I could go out and play. And around the same time I used to play with my sister trying on my mom's old costume jewelry. But it wasn't until I hit about 12 or 13 before I started wearing my mom's and sisters clothes when I came home from school and my parents weren't home yet. I would get all dressed up in my mom's lingerie and heels and watch the afternoon cartoons.:heehee: Once I started working, I started a small collection of my own and it snowballed from there.

I was very young around 8 or 9. My mother always wore knee high nylons, and I would steal them and wear them when I was in bed or alone. Eventually I found a pair of her pantyhose, and pretty much from then on I have been doing it in one way or another.

At around 6 or 8, I would sneak into my mom's bedroom at night, when I was supposed to be in bed. I just loved the feel of her slips, and tried them on occasionally. Her stuff was WAY too big for me then, but I just couldn't stop.
As a kid, you don't think about the reasons, but I knew if I got caught, I'd be in big trouble. Fortunately, I came real close several times but was never actuall caught red handed. It hasn't been until relatively recently that I feel comfortable as Vikki in public. I'm still in the closet as far as my family and friends are concerned, though.

Gosh, I guess at 5 or 6 when I was telling my friends I wanted to be a girl. It was a few years before I realized this was not a good idea! I remember watching a live action sci-fi kid series on saturdays, "Jason of Star Command" I think it was. There was a villainess who wore a tight red outfit and was very beautiful and imposing. I took a red t-shirt and stuffed it with two falsies made of..brace yourselves..pillow stuffings wrapped in aluminum foil. Gah it hurts just thinking about it..but I liked it at the time.

In later years I was CDing in cycles until the big trauma of my teens..Dad finding my stash. That put me off it for years. It was not until much much later that I got my own house and decided I was going to dress and like it! And here I am!

MelindaC
03-17-2007, 08:37 PM
It started for sure when I was 11. One day day I had an overwhelming urge to try on mom's Playtex open bottom girdle and stockings. Once I had them on & everything all hooked up, it just felt so wonderful and so right as well. Things just progressed from there. That was 50 years ago, and the need is stronger than ever!! But actually, it had been building for much longer than that --- probably around age 7. I remember being dressed as a woman a couple times for Halloween when I was little, and I liked it!!

Dragster
03-17-2007, 08:46 PM
I was about 10 or 12 when I felt the urge to try on my mother's hookside OBG. Don't ask my why, I've no idea even now, but I just had to try it on.

It was very tight on me, and I discovered rubbing myself through the tight material was so exciting that I had my first (accidental) orgasm into that girdle. I was scared because I didn't know what was happening to me, and I had a lot of cleaning up to do, fast!

I progressed to attaching her stockings to the garters, then slips and her dresses whenever I got the chance, but it never felt quite as exciting as that first time. I even tried a second girdle upside down over my chest area, with the garters tied together over my shoulders to hold it up. I guessed it felt like a full corset to me. It was another 40 years before I had a lace up corset of my own.

I remember being around 5-6 and having feelings of jealousy about the pretty things my sisters got to wear.

I don't think I actually started to actively DO anything about it (trying things on) until I was 10 or 11. By the time I was 13 or so, I was hooked.

Unlike some people I've read about here, I didn't have any kind of period of 'why am I like this' or 'What is wrong with me'. I've always had a tendency to make my OWN rules and didn't really pay attention to other peoples' rules, especially something as silly as what kind of cloth I could or could not wrap around my body! The best thing my father taught me when I as growing up was the word 'Why', and at an early age I started asking 'Why?' about EVERYTHING. If the answer I got didn't satisfy me, I would make my OWN rules.

You would think this would have lead me to a totally 'out' lifestyle, but OTOH I also have a need for other peoples' approval and an aversion to stress... those are the two things that keep me pretty much in the closet. :(

Early on, maybe 5, this is so embarrassing that I can’t believe that I’ll admit it but I can remember one summer while wearing shorts that I took a dishtowel, sat in the LR and wrapped it around my legs and practiced crossing my legs! Next, my brother and sister started dressing me up, and then early teens started dressing myself in my mother’s old clothes. See my intro post if you want the details of that!

Well I had an older sister who dressed me like a girl at 5 and later I started wearing her panties and bras. Then I started collecting panties from my cousins when I visited their rooms and then I had a big collection and had to hide my treasure chest. Even thru 2 marriages I wore my spouses things secretly. Now I freely wear panties and camis or a bra daily with the approval of my gf who likes that I can express my inner self unashamed. I dont have the guilt feeling anymore. My toes are always polished and my closet has a full side of cute women things.....Raye

8 years old, I wore my sisters leotards that she used for ballet and gymnastics.

9 years- Caught by mom, and punished severly for it.

10-29 years- In denial and no desire to dress.

30 years to now- What the hell, lets get a makeover done and start shopping!

Jenny Wilson
03-18-2007, 12:00 AM
I was about 5 when I became intrigued by my older cousins' clothes and shoes, especially Mary Janes. Because of the way their houses were laid out I never dreamed of trying on any of their stuff because I knew it would be too easy to get caught.

When I was 10 I began wearing Mom's things, from bras, panties, girdles with garters and stockings, high heels, a slip and a dress.... the whole shebang.

I always liked putting a dress on over my boy clothes when we played dress-up from our huge trunk of clothing for that purpose. I was ten when I first took some dresses up to my bedroom and put them on over a naked body. Oh my, that is the feeling I had wanted forever and finally found.

jasmine57
03-18-2007, 07:58 AM
I started when i was about 10. Mom walked in and caught me in her pantyhose, heels and bra when I was 13. That slowed down the dressing but never the desire. I started my collection in my 20's and have been adding ever sice.

I was around 5 when I started wearing my grandmothers bloomers so soft and silky and I have faint memories of wearing my mothers girdles and stockings. It wasn't until I was in my 60ies that it actually had a name,always thought I was a transvistite,then one day I was playing on the computer and came across this sight and found out that I actually was a crossdresser.Way back then I didn't know it had a name.I don't care what you call it I just love doing it. It feels so right and normal to be this way.

Fetish for high heels led me to buy a pair for myself and it went on from there.:happy:

I started dressing when I was about 10. During my teen years it was a pretty regular thing that I would do whenever I was left alone in the house. For some reason it tapered off during my mid-twenties to thirties and I didn't dress very often. With the growth of the Internet came the ability to buy female clothing very easily and anonymously. Like you, I also have a fetish for high heels and I was able to indulge it. I got my first pair of heels a few years ago and with them the urge to dress has come back with a vengeance. I now have a dozen pairs of high heel shoes and four pairs of boots as well as quite a large collection of women's clothing (mostly very fetish type items).

I started when I was 6 or 7 I don't know were I got it but, I had a blue & white dress for girl my age and I keep it in a store room in the basement,I plaied in it for a long time till I couldn;t put it on anymore. When we moved and I was older istarted ti wear my mother's things. I had one outfit that I like and it was the outfit I wear for Halloween when I was 13. I did know there was a name if what I did till i was in my late teens. I've been dressing ever since.

I put on my first dress (a brownie uniform) at probably 8. I started having dreams about being a girl around 12. I started hunting out my sisters old clothes around 14. Didn't start regularly "dressing" until I was 50! Up until that time I just thought I was a fetish cd. Then I discovered that it was alot deeper than that. I've been going out ever since then.

Early crossdressing experiences include:

1) Playing a game at the age of 4 with a female cousin aged 3, where I swapped my underpants for her panties.

2) Being allowed by mom to try a nice pair of white sandals at age of 5

3) When I was 6 there was a spare bed in my bedroom. This was ocasionally used by a friend of my family who was in her early 20s. I soon discovered that she would leave her nightie under the pillow. I tried it on the evenings when she did not come and stay with us. Unlike the previous 2 experiences, I did this secretly and took care not to be caught. So by then I knew that I was different to other boys, a crossdresser.

First time dressing I remember would be 7 or 8 with a neighbour girl's pretty things, playing house. Interestingly enough, rather than insist I play the wife and she play the husband, which is what some TG kids do, I played the husband: he just liked to dress in his wife's clothes. :heehee: :D

Some things never change. :happy:

I have to say Its amazes me how young most of us were when we started but in my case I was 7 or 8 when my sister dressed me from head to toe, and that point it triggered something inside me and from that point I have never looked back.

I started at around age 5 (girdles, stockings, slips) and acquiring clothes by age 13 or 14. Odd now, I can't quite remember how I felt about it in terms of coping with the isolation or whether there was much shame associated with it. I recall walking around the block fully dressed several times by about age 14. Just seemed natural. Joni

Hi Everyone: I was 14yo when I picked my older sisters black Vassarette underwire lace bra up off the floor and tried it on. I knew then I was a crossdresser. In that instant I looked in the mirror and saw my little boy breasts in that lace brassiere I knew I was a lifelong CD. I still love it as much today as I did that day.

I started around 5 trying on mom's seamed stockings. I loved the smoothness and the feel of the seam along the bottom of my foot when I stood up. Progressed from there a few years later wearing her stockings, girdles and high heels when no one was home.

I was 45 when I realized I wanted to CD. However, I did first experiment between age 10 - 13...maybe a half a dozen times. After which I never considered for over 30 years. Then a few years ago, for some unknown reason, I started wearing men's bikini underwear. I liked the trim/non-bulky feel...especially when microfiber and lycra blends were acceptable. (For men's underwear those were really soft!) JOCKEY stopped making them in my favorite material and after buying a dozen different brands of male bikini underwear (without success of getting the right fit/feel) I came to the conclusion that panties were what I really desired. This was confirmed when I secretly slipped into some of my wife's satin & lace panties. I was hooked! Since then my dressing has slowly progressed to now I wear panties & a bra all the time when not at work.

I'm pretty sure I was 8 years old (I'll be 27 this august) the first time I ever tried on a bra. I did it once and I was completly hooked. I was caught several times during my teenage years and was told not to do it until my family just got tired, gave up trying to stop me and told me if I was going to do it, just do it in my own room.

Wow !!

I can still remember the day(was 7) I was visiting an aunt and went into her
bedroom foer something(not sure what), some how I went into her lingerie drawer and noticed her nylons neaty in drawer.

The nylons just drew my attention and knew I had to try on ..they were big
on my leggs ( 7yrs old) but felt so wonderful ,

That is my story and now I am 52 and love being enfemm , when ever possible

I think I started shortly before I was in second grade. I remember dressing up in one of my sister's halloween costumes and little white cotton gloves one year and it just escalated from there. ('Escalated?' I make it sound like a disaster - it was a blessing!) So I had to be what, six? Seven? Kinda like a lot of you here.

I finally gave in to the urge at about 13 or 14, but I must have been about 15 when I realized this was probably a part of me. I didn't figure out I was TG until around 18 or 20.

I started when I was 13 or 14. My mother stockings. Well now that I think about it, I had worn leotards and tights when I was younger as my mother was a dance teacher.



For me it was at the age of fourteen when I started skipping school to go out for walks during the day dressed in my sisters lingerie, nylons, lipstick, blouse , skirt and head scarf

I actually was dressed starting at the age of four by my two older sisters so we could play house

Great question! I remember playing in the closet (literally) at about 3-4 years and realizing I liked my mom's pretty high heels much better than my dad's clod hoppers. Got caught trying on mom's earrings, bracelets, and necklaces about 5 hears old. Don't really know when I knew I was a cross dresser, but been doing it off and on all my life. Strange I didn't do it when my feet were the same size as mom's. Too busy trying to be all man I guess.

I wanted to be a girl at about the age of eight and would secretly put on female things and make-up. Continued through my teens but joined army at eighteen for three years and with that and and a different life did not go back to dressing for another seventeen years - although the urge remained,

I think I was around 6-7 when I started trying on my sisters things. At that time we were the same dress size and shoe size. She was into Rainbow Girls, so had a few long and short gowns. Some were stapless too. She had a lot of after school activities, so always had a couple of hours before mom and dad got home that I could play dress up. When my sister got out of school, got married, and moved out, I started dressing in my mothers clothes, but her shoes were a size or two smaller, so could not wear any of her shoes. After high school, I went into the USAF for eight years. After that, I meet an older couple and became great friends with them. It happen that she and I were the same dress size and shoe size. She caught me one day dressed in her stuff. She was understanding and gave me some of her older dresses/shirts/blouses and shoes. She did not want to see me dressed, but would from time to time give me things. If she had been more supportive, my CDing may have now been a lot different.

I guess in my early teens. That's when I realized that I loved to dress.

I'm new here, I found it very interesting that quite a few of you like me got the urge to crossdress at a very young age, one of my earliest living memories is of hiding under the bed from my mother because I had a pair of her panties on, I could not have been more than 3 or 4 at the time.

I was fascinated with women’s shoes since my mother had made me wear white double strap leather flats for my first Communion at about 12

I am sure they were girl’s shoes and the boys kidded me, it was very humiliating. That started me trying on my mother’s shoes.

I tried mom's stuff when I was about 10 and LOVED it! She caught me dressed when I was 15. I was head to toe dressed in her favorite dress (mine too) heels, pantyhose, panties bra, her makeup and I even tried to do my hair. She thought I looked ok and we talked about it and she said she was cool with it and I never stopped.

I was 11 and home along one day when I was watching some women on TV and got excited about the idea of wearing pantyhose. It seemed to come out of nowhere. I put on a pair of pantyhose and walked around and I had never been that excited in my life, i tried a bra, a dress and then a pair of my mothers high heels. I dressed SO tacky back then but I LOVED it.

I started when I was three. I got really nervous about it when I was about 8.

I knew it was not going to go away.
