Does anyone still really like being a guy?? I really do like being a guy a lot...I enjoy sports, I still like shoping for mens clothes, I like being on a date with a girl still. However if I could choose to pick my gender when born, I'd with out hesitation pick female I believe. Dressing does do somthing for me I can't explain...and since getting more in touch with that side of my self I even look at girls differently, not only am I attracted to them, but I wish I could be them as well.
I saw a post that some one wrote that said they think they have a multiple personality disorder. I understand where they are coming from on that, I don't believe I have a disorder by any means, but When I am a man vs when I'm a woman, I have different personality traits and I feel like a different person.

Before It was easy to go in spurts and not dress for months at a time, but with in the last 5 months or so, its been so hard not too, and its been with in the last 5 months that I have purchased more than just clothes and dresses, did the wig shoes and makeup thing as well.

NOt sure exactly where I am going with all of this, but I guess just does anyone still feel very undecided about there gender, which one do you prefer, and if you could choose just one, which one??

I just sat through a few hours of the NFL draft coverage - not a lot of women would do that without a gun to their heads. :D


I'm a crossdresser. When the dress comes off, I'm back to reality. I have no interest whatsoever in being a woman - just looking like one.

I'd agree with that to some extent. Felt pretty unsuccessful at being a guy for most of my life. The last few years I actually got more comfortable being a man than I ever had. Which is why this CD thing becoming a near obsession in a matter of weeks really took me by surprise.

I would have to say that being in a woman frame of mind is pretty much a 24/7 thing for me anymore. My job requires me to play like a man and at times I think it helps that I am a man, like when its time to take the car in for service and things like that. But mentaly even when in man mode i still find myself thinking about what I will wear when I get home or I really want to try that new nail polish. It's not that I do not like myself as a man, but rather I love myself more as a woman.

I love lace and soft lingerie and the feel of pantyhose,short skirt's and heel's but i'm still a guy.I enjoy guy thing's and wouldn't want to be femme fulltime.If i had to do it over again i don't think i would change a whole lot.I would marry the same women but i would try to spend more time with my children because they grow up so fast.Sorry for getting off track.

I was never macho, and enjoyed cooking and sewing more than polishing my car. Sports have always bored me, except for the Olympics. But then again, I wouldn't think that thesed are solely guy things or girl things. So, do i like being a guy? Frankly, I just like being me.

I like being a guy and doing guy stuff, but I also like being in femme and doing femme stuff.
I like sports, cars (got 4 of them), collecting militaria, guns, cooking, dancing, etc. I can go on forever.
When I'm in guy mode I do mostly guy things, although, I have gone shopping for female clothes in drab, but when I'm in femme, I only shop for female things.

I like being a guy and doing things in guy mode. I also like dressing up and putting on makeup, I don't at present see myself going fishing or hiking out in the woods in a miniskirt,heels, and makeup.

I definitely enjoy the feminine side and how it allows me to interact with others. It keeps the loud boisterous male side in check and also to help take others feelings in consideration more often. Then there is the guy side. Football, baseball, cars and the ladies. Yes I am also guilty of looking at them and thinking how great they are and wanting the dress and shoes at the same time. It's great having a foot in both worlds (Still have both feet in the main world right now but I guess that would depend on who you ask:D ) there would probably be even more people like us if they tried it.

About the only time I like being in guy mode is when I am working on my car(s) but honestly thats about it. Almost all of the rest of the time I am wishing that I was in total female mode, but work and family makes me keep the charaide(sp) going. Even working on the car I have underdressed on several occasions. Have you ever changed the oil in your car while wearing a skirt? :happy:

Reading everyone's replies, I noticed no one mentioned the sex part. Though in other topics, we were asked if we are attracted to guys. And in respond, I would say no and yes to being a Man if I had to choose. While I love the dressing, and looking like a woman, I am not ready to take on all that goes with being a woman (good and bad). My sexual orientation is still for woman and I hear so many of us say they would be a lesibian if they became a real girl. As a man, I can choose the part of being a woman I like. Dressing up, looking sexy...etc I do fantasize my female part having sex with a man but cannot put a face to that. (Maybe a ******* would be acceptabel!) I am very attactive as a man and had both sexes hit on me. To be a real woman, it would be more difficult to pass. So to want to have sex with a man, I think, it is kinda like watching a porno with myself enjoying both roles. So being a heterosexual male CD, I have the best of both. I respect others who are gay and wants to be a real girl and be with a real man, thus the terminlogy has labeled us into Transexuals, Transvestites, Gays, Lesbians, Drag Queens & Kings, ********....and what have you. In closing, I still like being a man! Now where can I find that sexy gold miniskirt.

Forward brothers and sisters!

I love the gym, running, working on cars getting dirty, guy or little boy at heart! But I can't imagine not getting up in the morning taking a shower shaving my legs, and heading off to work.

Can't beat the feeling of putting on a nice new skirt.....

Love just being me.....

I have to agree with many of the replies but to be specific, I pretty much stink at the guy stuff, sports ... no not really I do like watching gymnastics and ice skating,I suck at both. I do as my one repreve enjoy drag racing but then I grew up with it.I do like to fish...other than that forget it I would much rather be shopping,trying on clothes and shoes,cooking ,anything but guy stuff well save for model trains anyway. If I had to choose just one gender it would be difficult. I love my wife and could not give her up so I suppose I could not choose just one gender. I am happiest in femme mode,I am also fortunate enough that I have my wifes support and understanding.:love:

Couldn't agree more there with the second statement.

I would have to agree with the first one however as i'm an aussie rules footy fanatic/tragic.

It's like if i don't want to shave for a week and and a half... i won't. But when the whiskers on the face do come off... then the make up goes striaght on. Not that a clean shaven face stops me from wearing a dress or such though.

I play cricket, go to the footy, drink (too much) with mates, play the playstation with the kids, currently doing some paving outside the front door of the house. I'm really not afraid of getting my hands dirty.
Geez i used to be a panel beater before i started driving trucks.

If I could do it all over from the beginning I would drfinitely be female. Maybe in my next life, LOL! But, that's not the case in reality here. I've spent my 42 years on this earth being male, and know nothing else. I'm not bad at being male, that was never the case. I'll just crossdress and nurture my fem side as I've been doing and deal with it. I'm just trying my best to balance both sides. I am blessed with a wonderful wife, family, friends, and enough money to survive in this crazy world so I'm not gonna rock this boat. :happy:

Yes & no really, I'm not completely happy being a man and am very jealous (but also respectful, I must stress) of women but at the same time I know for me at this moment, deep down I wouldn't be happy being a woman 24/7.

I may be failure in the stereotype of what a man should be but at the end of the day I don't care - I'm unique, I'm me a of both genders and a bit of niether...my ideal would be to integrate crossdressing with drab and just wear what I want to wear as a man but I'm nowhere near brave or self-confident enough to be the guy in the skirt and pantyhose yet.

Some times I long to be femme, sometimes I don't - its a case of Yin & Yang -to quote Karren Hutton - the best of both genders! :happy:

04-29-2007, 05:23 AM
Tough question! If I could have chosen my gender at birth then I would definitely without doubt chosen female. However there are still times I do like being a guy, just far less of them than when female! :heehee: I would never go down the route of gender reassignment though.

good point that - yes i suppose i'm a girl when i'm a man - only en femme about 6 hours a week but thinking about the next experience. wearing my 'manbag' with pride, varnishing my nails, grooming like never before, wearing my 'man panties', chatting with the GGs, probably in girl mode most of the time - hadn't thought of that!!!

I have been in a battle all my life in this man vs woman thing. In my head it is so clear...you are a woman...the body says though...you are a man...Growing up it is the body which controls what you become as an adult. Trying to fit in, trying to be "normal", getting married and having a family all the while wishing you were the mom. Having a son who is your pride and joy no matter what.
If it were possible and I could have chosen, I would have been a woman, but this is the real world and compromise is the key word.

Cassy11
04-29-2007, 08:57 AM
I think that each one of us has our own idea of what is a "guy" and what is a "girl". I love being a guy and doing the things I see as being guy stuff, no gym, no heavy drinking, no being loud. I love my wife dearly, I love and provide for my family and love building and mechanical stuff. I also love the feel of silk and satin, heels and stockings. I don't want to be a girl, I just like to dress.

[QUOTE=becca1125n;842898]However if I could choose to pick my gender when born, I'd with out hesitation pick female I believe.

I am in exactly the same boat, i would definately choose to be born a female. And i do bounce back and forth with dressing when i feel like it. but more recently i have been doing it alot as well.

I enjoy being a man in day to day events, but dream of what my life would have been like if a was a women.

I think being a guy is great... And luckily I do ok as a guy. But that makes it harder to sometimes justify to myself why I want to put on a bra, or shave my legs.... There is no way I would give up being a guy, but I do like to express my feminine side at times...
Here are a few things I love about dressing:
- Fantastic range of clothes etc - many more than a guy has
- Make up
- Pampering

I would say I was 90% male and 10% female. But that is a big 10%!

I also suck at being a guy. I used to go running to the house in tears when I was little because the neighborhood kids teased me about my feminine traits.
As I grew into my teens, I tried hard to do guy things, but hated most of them and was a miserable failure. Everyone except me knew that I was a "girl in disguise". If I could choose my life of living for a hundred years as a male or thirty years as a female, I would have the best thirty years of life I could imagine.

I'm like a lesbian with a penis. Not attracted to guys (tho I'm probably better at hanging out w/ them than at any other time in my life) , love being with gals, and I find feminine underwear incredibly exciting. I can only get so girly, the pastel floral print frilly lace sweetly perfumed femme stuff is just too far to go. As always, it's like I'm stuck somewhere in the middle of the two stereotypical sexual roles.

Ruth
04-29-2007, 04:59 PM
"stereotypical sexual roles" is the root of the whole problem I think. When we were little boys we were pushed into being masculine, but many of us, me for one, didn't actually like doing most of that stuff. If there had been some kind of middle ground so that boys who felt that way could be kind of girly, we would probably have gone there, and grown up happy and complete.
I think that since I started dressing openly with my wife and acknowledging my feminine side, I have been able to function better as a man. I still go round in public, doing my job etc. as a man but I also use my more feminine feelings and I think I relate to people better - and I can do this without putting on an effeminate manner. I save that for when I'm wearing a dress.
It's not that I positively like being a man, but it's what I am, so I'm going to do my best with the hand I was dealt.

I don't see it as liking the man..being a man who often times feels way to feminine to be comfortable with, is just who I have always been. I am the man, and I am the man who looks alot like a lady somedays too. I suppose I have become a little more accepting, that this is me, in the past little while, and I am trying to enjoy both aspects of me.

Kelsy
04-29-2007, 06:41 PM
I was never what you might call a mans man. I have played the part. unfortunately that is what it has all amounted to, a role to be played.
I never have felt complete and didn't fit into the testosterone high end of the male world. I was always fairly shy and withdrawn. I loved the girls with all of my male side but I love the girls for more reasons that a mans interest. I loved everthing about them and always wanted to emulate them to be one of them!!

Up until about 15 or 16, I was the archetypal "7 stone weakling", and I tried to avoid sports (except swimming) and the general rough and tumble of boyhood. From that age, I developed, physically, and discovered that I then enjoyed rugby and other manly pursuits (and I started drinking!), even though I had discovered the thrill of cross-dressing from about 10.

I've had a male career (engineering), drive a man's car (a V8 AC Cobra replica), still play sport to win and work-out at the gym (at 62), and love that side of my life. I love being the husband for my wife (and after 37 years, still don't want an intimate relationship with anyone else), father for my kids, and grandfather for my grandson, and that's the image I wish to project to the outside world. It's just that there is another, private, CD, side of me that I find incredibly exciting from time to time. There's no way I'd want to dress 24/7 and that part of me to become 100%, I'd lose too many aspects of my life that give me great pleasure and satisfaction. 5% is just fine for me, although I would love to spend some of that time out in the world presenting 100% as a woman. But while my wife is so anti-CD, I'll shelve that ambition in the interests of the marital harmony I value above most other things. I want to be with her for the rest of my life; she knows that ( I keep telling her) and feels the same. She has no idea how much happier she'd make me if she'd open up her mind a little and at least accept that there's another side of me that needs an airing from time to time. But maybe some day..... I'll keep trying!

Oh, I don't think I've ever really felt like a guy... More Gender Neutral to Female. I have met some CD's who absolutely love their male side, but for me it never really was there in all honesty.

Those who know me know my world is simply girly girl fluff. Awwwwww bless :)

I prefer being seen and related to in the world as a woman rather than a man. I want to be free to outwardly express my emotions and related to others in a loving manner. But inside I not aware of being a gender. I know I was born into a male body and was socialized as a male and lived and worked as a male. I'm not sure how much of that diminishes over time. I know I was a man and did male things.(well, not always)
There is a gentleness with the way I approach the world that has been evolving over the last 7-8 years. Perhaps it's because of my spiritual studies or is it my slow unplanned transistion? I know both are having a profound effect on my life.
This subject is one of the most difficult for to get my arms around. My wife teaches gender studies and we talk about it often. Still baffles me. but it's a great conversation to have.

BTW I think my first sentences explains why so many of us want to go out.

I like being a guy. I have never been extremely macho and have a fairly wimpy body for a guy. But I have always been strong and can do many macho guy things. I have been able to out work many macho built guys and enjoy doing manual labor for the most part. And I take pride in knowing a job has been well done. There are very few things I can not do around the house including building one.

I just have a feminine side that needs expressing at times.

I saw a post that some one wrote that said they think they have a multiple personality disorder. I understand where they are coming from on that, I don't believe I have a disorder by any means, but When I am a man vs when I'm a woman, I have different personality traits and I feel like a different person.

Since embracing my feminine side I feel that I am more complete. It carries into my everyday life. I don't feel like a different person anymore when I dress or don't dress, I feel the same either way. Though I prefer dressing and presenting female. I have grown into a more caring and compassionate person than I thought I ever could.


Love Ya,

Being a guy is the best. And when I choose I can be fem. The best of both worlds. Being a girl full time would be too scary as there are too many dangers for women that men don't have to worry about. I don't need to list specifics as you are all aware of them and if you do go out en femme you probably worry about them

No, like several of the others here, I'm happy on both sides. I live in a guy world 70-80% of the time, have a guy identity, guy friends, guy obligations, guy hobbies. My CD world is just for fun, no real obligations, but I do have CD friends and activities I do as a CDer. Sometimes, the two worlds cross, like when going out in public en femme (fun) or hiding my CD side from almost everyone I know on the guy side(not fun). Anyway, I'm enjoying both sides now, and don't want to change anything.

Though I have liked being a guy (I guess I am just used to it after 42 years) I have lately been finding myself more and more wishing I was a women.
Sometimes I just want to cut "it" off and be done with it.

Like many others I like being on both sides. I spend most of my time in the guy world and do guy thinks much of the time. Being still in the closet I keep my CDing to myself and this site and it gives me a real buzz.

I have been pretty sucessful being a guy, but have finially come to the conclusion that I would have much preferred being a girl all along! It's funny how one comes to these conclusions....and concluding that I'll most likely have to finish this movie in male mode is actually pretty much a sad resignation. ~sigh~ Has anyone ever simply wished or dreamed that when the woke up in the morning that they would be 100% female??? Has anyone wondered what would happen if one day they discovered that they had only female things around them & no way to every get male things ever again??? ...Being pretty much forced to be yourself and present as a female?? I'd very much like to hear about the struggle others have had about all of this.

Soooo...a short answer is that I make the best of it and do ok...if I had a choice I would be female.24/7...but since that doesn't seem realistic at all find that accepting things for as they are seems to be the best solution...at least for the moment ~giggles~:be:

Nice Takling to U

I would have to say that being in a woman frame of mind is pretty much a 24/7 thing for me anymore. My job requires me to play like a man and at times I think it helps that I am a man, like when its time to take the car in for service and things like that. But mentaly even when in man mode i still find myself thinking about what I will wear when I get home or I really want to try that new nail polish. It's not that I do not like myself as a man, but rather I love myself more as a woman.

You said it just like I feel.

Aloha,
I wouldn't change......I think :confused: , well......naw! As a guy, I'm masculine, not macho. It's just that low cut jeans, lace thongs and 4" spikes are so much more fun and sexy than my 501's, sports briefs and Timberlines!

Love to go from drab to enfemme! Something so satisfying in transforming!
Besides, my COGNATI score, at 110, makes me a fence sitter. I just wish I looked more andro (now that might be nice) in appearance. Smaller thighs and calves, trimmer, less bulk. Since we're at it, how about softer facial lines (one plus, I don't have much of an adam's apple)?

heck ya, i love being a guy. Love hanging out with the boys; drink beer, play poker, watch sports, make fun of each other, etc. its great
but i love being female as well. its more exotic, hot, clean, fun as well. Being a girl is more like a tension release in being able to play out my feminine side.

Does anyone still really like being a guy?? I really do like being a guy a lot...I enjoy sports, I still like shoping for mens clothes, I like being on a date with a girl still. However if I could choose to pick my gender when born, I'd with out hesitation pick female I believe. Dressing does do somthing for me I can't explain...and since getting more in touch with that side of my self I even look at girls differently, not only am I attracted to them, but I wish I could be them as well.
I saw a post that some one wrote that said they think they have a multiple personality disorder. I understand where they are coming from on that, I don't believe I have a disorder by any means, but When I am a man vs when I'm a woman, I have different personality traits and I feel like a different person.

Before It was easy to go in spurts and not dress for months at a time, but with in the last 5 months or so, its been so hard not too, and its been with in the last 5 months that I have purchased more than just clothes and dresses, did the wig shoes and makeup thing as well.

NOt sure exactly where I am going with all of this, but I guess just does anyone still feel very undecided about there gender, which one do you prefer, and if you could choose just one, which one??

I hear what you're saying about MPD...has occurred to me too....
On balance, I think I may have been happier if born female and brought-up in that life. The career choices I've made would not be incongruent with that.
Transitioning, however, could be a VERY different proposition depending (of course) on age, physical disposition etc.
As to your exact question, I suppose I was never that "guy-ish" in some respects to start-with, so maybe I'm not the best person to answer that question.
Come to think of it, I've probably shopped for women's clothes more than men's....especially if you include e-bay.

I really enjoy being a guy. I mean after all, I really am a guy, and I have all the attributes of maleness, I think................ But I also enjoy being able to be a girl. The problem I seem to have is that the older I get, the more I seem to want to dress, but I can only find less time to do it. My SO say's not to worry ............ It won't be too long in the near future that you'll be able to dress 24/7 if you want and we can share living as girlfriends.

I enjoy being a guy mostly. I sometimes go weeks without a girlish thought in my head.
I also enjoy my times when I present myself as a woman. It is fun for me and an escape from all the macho stuff.
I think it's the best being able to be whatever I want to be at any given time.

Some days after a week of being in bloke mode, I love nothing better than going through the whole girly routine of getting all dressed up, made up and going out for some feminine fun.
Next day I waken up and go for a few beers with the guys!
I guess you could say I'm contented in either role.

Vivian Best
05-01-2007, 05:14 PM
I guess to me the grass is always greener on the other side. So with that in mind, I guess I would enjoy more being a female all the time.

As a youngster, I was always doing the girl stuff around the house(mother made me do it!) and I didn't particularlly like doing the boy stuff and still don't today. I just have never been in the rough and tumble boy stuff. There are a few times I enjoy being a guy, but not many.

I am so thankful to be a guy. Especially a guy born in the United States. I would not have it any other way. I also love being with women as a guy.

The crossdressing has never made me feel I was less of a guy, nor have I ever questioned my gender. At first, the crossdressing seemed to be nothing more than a sexual thing, which is not unusual since guys are primarily turned on by the physical rather than the emotional aspects of sexuality. But as I've matured, the crossdressing has evolved into a sort of act of relaxation and artistic expression. The bonus is that I can appreciate, even if a little, some of the things women in Western countries go through when it comes to primping...

I am a bit surprised at how many guys here are uncomfortable being guys. My understanding of crossdressing is that it is distinct from transgender, though perhaps it might serve as a window into one's perhaps latent transgender issues. I joined this forum thinking it was more about crossdressing instead of transgenderism. As a result, I find that I am a bit of an outsider. The cool thing is that's exactly where I feel comfortable :D I am learning much, to be sure...

The only thing that I like of being a man is the protection. Women are very vulnerable physically, discriminated, harassed and else. I cannot imagine being a woman in a muslim society. How a woman can be herself when she cannot wear anything she likes?. Wear burkas and cover their bodies from head to toe, not wear even make up ? There are countries that circumcise women clitoris:sad: We live in a violent world. Wars and major conflicts would not exist if women will be the dominant class. I rather be a woman 24/7. I love feeling and being a woman totally:be: :doll:

I prefer the "best of both worlds" thing also. I've never really been that successful as a guy but don't want to be a woman, just to dress as one occasionally. I'm trying to embrace my feminine side after hiding it for so long but am also trying not to overdo it and find some balance.

I love being both and the balance it creates for me. If I cannot dress for a while the man part of me is not nice to be with, but after dressing up for a day the man in me has fun with life. Today life was one of the best on top off the world and all man, maybe it was being dressed last night and looking all girl that brought peace to my world, just my thoughts.

At one time I enjoyed being a guy, although I never liked sports, and other guy things, although I do love the car hobby, and women. I have always liked womens fashions, and prefer their clothes. I dont like being a man anymore, I would definately be a woman and take all the good and bad that comes with being a woman.

To be honest with you, there are some good things about being a guy. It is much easier to be a slob, go without shaving for a couple of days, be a beachbum, wear beat up raggedy clothes, just watch ballgames and drink beer.

I think that when I was trying to transition some years ago, that the counselor I was going to, saw right through me, and declined to prescribe hormones and put me on a program. I thought I was ready to be a full time female. My friends were already well advanced in their transition. I thought I was ready for the physical alterations.

Yes, I have a very, very strong feminine side, but I have also liked being a grandpa. Does that answer your question?

Big hugs,


Rita,

I like being a MAN.

Protector, Provider, Complement to Woman: Physically, Emotionally, Spiritually.

I can do all these things and still suck at Guy stuff.
Lately, since I have been relentless in my pursuit of Enfemme Joy and Glory, I have been sucking at and deferring Guy stuff.

On the other hand, I have carried the ball for my household finding new work (As a Geek), a new Home (closer to my daughter's schools), and finding a new car (old one up and died), and being the guy my daughter calls whenever things aren't working out for her.

I am temporarily sucking at being a Guy, while I figure out how to be a Girl more efficiently. Much of the confusion is coming clear now. It takes women years (a lifetime), I am very guy-like in my (I can do it!) arrogance that it should take me a few more months!


Also, I spent a lot of years clueless as to what women were thinking when they were driving me mad. I'm going to be a much more serene and complementary partner when next I take a woman into my arms and heart.

I dont fully understand woman, but becuase I get in touch with this woman inside me, I am starting to understand them emotionaly. As much as I love to put on a dress every now and then and pretend to be one of the girls, I could never truly be a real woman. Plus then I would have to find a support group for lesbians:D

I have never felt really comfortable with a group of guys. Not to say I have romantic feelings just not into sports, cars, chasing women, binge drinking...... Always felt more comfortable around the ladies. I do admire and very much love the look and feel of a woman, but also love the look and feel of being a woman myself at times. I do motorcycle, hike and do home repairs/remodeling but so does my wife. I am comfortable dressed as a man but also comfortable, maybe more so, as a woman.

Let it go and grow and see what blooms.

A'hhh - the classic conflict that has been within me all of my life -- at least since my earliest of memories. I enjoy both sides of myself! I guess, as has been said, I have got to be me, and "me" is a combination of both genders!!! I have no desire or intention to change my anatomical sex, but rather want to continue to have the best of both worlds!!! I have done well as a male, but I have, all of my life, constantly thought about my feminine side and how I love to express that side through crossdressing!!! It is so prevalant within my heart, mind, and soul!!!

Am successful as a guy, wat i dont like about beign a guy is that male cloth/fashion are so FIXED men are not adventurers in DRESSING-UP.... not many colours, not many different designs, no sexy new trends, they are not mostly fitted, and one thing that is important but men dont do it is coloring their nails (which i love and tend to get me into trouble) and male beauty is so plain not RICH and not deep, BUT if mens WORLD will adopt all the things i mension above i think I might never want to CROSSDRESS or FANTASIZE about beign a woman, but i think am a woman am almost sure cos sometimes i really feel like crying cos i cant be pregnant, i cant paint my nails without having some complications in ma life, i cant cry in public, and there are so many ornaments and postures that i cant do in public even i get some confort,... the list is endles.

Never cared a lot about commercial sports,,multi million dollar pitchers and quarterbacks contracts just bug me when I have to pay $10.00 for a beer at a game. More power to those guys I guess but I just dont care enough about it to support any sports in particular.
A couple years ago I was full Cindy mode one night, up at 3 AM to go hunting (back in ugly guy mode) and shot my biggest deer at 7 AM wearing my now lucky VS red undies under my camo LOL

I find myself not just admiring the women I see day to day, but secretly longing to be free to come and go as they do. In the end for me, I just have to find the right balance between my male and femme sides and go with it.

I have spent my whole life being envious of women. From the time I was a child I always wanted to be a girl -- not a boy. Although I've had a fairly successful life as a man, I still have these recurrent feelings. I just wish I were a woman. To some degree, crossdressing helps me cope with these feelings.

I definitely like being a guy when I'm not en femme. I like playing the male role, being the tall strong guy who can lift all the heavy stuff, and whatnot, but when I'm feeling femme, I kind of wish I wasn't so big and manly.

Mixed feelings I guess, but I definitely have moments when I love being a guy.

As I reflect on my life, 55 years of the 60 being a transvestite,now transgendered person, I believe that a major component in my going the way I have is not being accepted by males as an equal. I was soft looking, long eyelashes, weaker, younger, maybe a scaredy cat, etc. Girls felt empathy for me, I recall, inviting me to their girl only parties-once I recall well. I think this was one major factor in going to the other side. I wish I had been born a girl and except for playing with old cars, would be happy to live only in a woman's world. regards, helen

Nope, not really anymore. I've never really been into sports. I do like cars and trucks and motorbikes. But I also know a few gg's that are more into sports and cars than some males I know. Personaly I can't really stand most guys. They've got just way way to much testosterone running throught there viens. Me, if I had the cash, I'd probibly be looking for permenant hair removal, counselling, hrt, and srs. Don't get me wrong, being a guy does have advantages, but not enough for me to be happy. I feel so much better about my self when I look into a mirror and can see a female looking back. I'm lacking the words I want to use right now but me not happy. Marisa

I'm not into sports either. I only play badminton, and swim, thats the extend of my sports. I have no interest in cars or trucks. But I do like being the big, strong guy girls turn to when they need something they can't reach, or need something lifted they aren't capable of. I like being able to show off my strength, and that makes me feel masculine, and I enjoy it.

Absolutely love being a guy. Crossdresser or not, you need to love yourself to be happy in life.

I still enjoy being a man and some of the manly things, but I also like being dressed enfemme. When dressed I feel more relaxed and comfortable. I am not much into sports, in fact I would rather watch hsn than espn. I have never really been very macho and whether in drab mode or enfemme I prefer the softer side of life.

Absolutely love being a guy. I dress up like a girl because I like to do it and it helps me to relax and get away from the stresses of everyday life. It's also really fun. So I am a guy that likes to play girl but loves to be a guy or a girl.

Great question and one I usually avoid dealing with. I think the honest answer is that since I've done the guy stuff, and since I've always been a repressed transgender, I think I'd rather be a woman all of the time for at least a little while. Of course, that isn't possible, so where do I go from here. Another sale, another dress, another wig, another day of wishing.

Hi all,
I enjoy being a guy, I don't enjoy shopping for guy clothes though! Gads, I mail order all of them: new jeans and a few golf shirts are about all I buy. I enjoy looking for girl clothes in catalogs and in stores, I enjoy my fem times too. But gosh I do enjoy playing a power game of golf.
Hugs, Gwen

My physique allows me to wear tight clothing very easily. I wear a size 6 in womens skinny jeans. I also wear womens size 8 and a half to size 9 shoes in most brands.

I have wished I was a girl since I was about 10 yrs old. I never liked sports, I dont like alot of guy stuff, however I love the car hobby, especially hot rods.
muscle cars are my favorites. I am very much attracted to women only, even when I am dressed like a woman. So women and cars are the only guy things I like. I have had alot of fun as a guy, but now I just want to transition to living as a woman full time, that is what I am working on now.
I dont like being a man anymore, I want to be a woman, and the older I get the stronger those feelings are of wanting to be a woman

I love being a guy... someone said earlier that the best thing is that you can chose what part of a girl you want to be. We can take all the best bits and not have to worry about a lot of stuff.

As a guy I do well and I am very happy staying that way, however much I like to wear a skirt, or however much I appreciate nice shoes.

While there are things I like doing as a guy (fly fishing) I could also do those things as a woman. In the recent past I have come to spend almost all of my time outside of work dressed fully as a woman so yes, I would go transition and live life as a female 24/7 if possible.

Given a choice I would so much prefer to be a woman but I need the man part of me to be able to carry out day-to-day business. All that being said, making CDing just sound like a pleasure thing. I love dressing up, I love to picture myself functioning in the community as a woman, just living that is and get extremely excited by those thoughts. However I have had this "sex addiction" for 25 years and tired of having the drop in energy when I get through with CDing. I worry I will pass out or have a heart attack if I keep this up so I have to take it easy at age 45.

I could have sworn that I answered this, But anyway, I still like being a guy most of the time. I wish that I was a little more comfortable dressing around my wife. She does not mind me dressing up once in a while. I just feel really silly doing it. Thats my main excuse for not dressing up at all, lately.

I have had feminine tendencies since I was a child. Very sensitive, cried easily, and found talking with woman very enjoyable. I did get married and had two children and found a way to overcompensate by involving myself in masculine activities. It was hard work, but I really tried. If you were to ask my friends, they would describe me as a "man's man." I do't feel anything like that, however. Since I divorced, I discovered crossdressing to satisfy my own sexual fantasy. I got so deeply into it, that I would go out and cruise for men while dressed to the hilt. I usually scored. I put away all of that for several years. Now I am retired and I a so engrossed n being a woman it is all I think about and it influences everything in my life. I still enjoy some of my male friends (not sex partners) but do not enjoy the old activities. I do like base ball. Today, I am going to the spa for a bikini wax and makeup lesson. I so very much enjoy the female company that I can't wait. So, where am I? I am thinking very much like a woman, but am reluctant to do HRT or pursue SRS. I do't because my children would not understand and then I would be alone and isolated. So I have these split personality traits to deal with and I am hoping I do't fall into a depression. So, there it is

There are times that being a guy is good and those times I wonder why I would ever want to be a girl. Then there are those days when I don't even want to get out of bed in the morning if I have to pretend to be a man. I guess I am like many others, caught in gender limbo.

My COGNATI score was 190, which makes me an almost ideal candidate for SRS. I think that answers the question: YES I would LOVE to be a girl full time. Except for the sex, from my present point of view I shudder at the thought of having sex with a man...and I still enjoy watching a pretty woman walking by. Especially when she's dressed to the nine's. So does that make me a nut case?

Most of my male life happened before the arrival of the Internet and thus I lived my life as a man as good as I could, never really understanding what was "wrong" with me. Now that I know, or think I know, it is too late for a sex change, but I vowed to come back as a girl the next time around if I'd had a choice. I would take all the so called "negative" aspects from being a girl with pleasure, including PMS, period, child birth and menopause. Whatever it takes.

Every time I dress, I can't get out of my female cloths because I hate it with a passion to get back in my "utilitarian" male clothing. And that brought me in trouble, because I waited way too long and on one bad day I was "busted".

Often I am almost offended when I see a woman that dresses sloppy and with disregard for her femininity. When I see that she takes her femininity so much for granted, I mean. I would wish that I could trade places with her, because I envy the femininity she's born with, something I need so much effort for to mimic while she seems to not care exploiting it. If she doesn't care to look feminine, she can have my male-ness, here and now... I am kidding of course, but with a serious undertone, because she has the right to express herself any way she wishes. So I'd better control my envy.

As a male I hate it to be photographed and about the only pictures taken from me were the ones on my passport and drivers license. From Dita I have now hundreds of pictures, because I love the woman I see in the mirror.

For what concerns doing/missing the stereotype male things? I can't care less. I don't care for sports and such. I am in business for myself and could easily do my line of work as a woman too... hey, perhaps even better as a woman.

So I would vote for being woman full time, hands down. If it were only 20 years earlier...

:love: Dita

Welding, Driving, Wrenching, Rockhounding etc. But I don't think I would like them any less if I had been born a girl.

I was stuck by posts that talked about not liking the man in the mirror though. Objectively, I am a handsome enough man, used to mostly have physique issues, but not anymore. However I too hated (and have grown to tolerate) having my picture taken en homme. As Barbara, I love having my picture taken, constantly thinking about poses and clothes and so on.

I kind of wish I could have gone through my childhood and adolescent years as a girl, and suddenly crossed over to maleness in my mid to late twenties. Would have liked to have avoided the bullies, worn all those 80's styles (bring back the peplum blouse with the tulip skirt!).

I am pretty comfortable in my male skin these days, which is why I am baffled by the urge to dress now.

Hi Ashly,

Thanks for your comment and compliment. 20 years or 40 years, the point is, its too late now, but if known earlier, it would have made a lot of difference. I would have LOVED to live my life as a woman. No doubts about that.

BTW: Every time I see that avatar of yours I have to stare at your a** in that tight skirt. I LOVE it. It is an absolute fabulous picture and one that would stop traffic in the street. If it is your a**, my compliments.

Did you ever try to do that same thing with your bike and wait for the traffic to crash?

Lol...:love:Dita.

I personally like being a guy. But at the same time. Being a girl is cool too. I think the whole deal with me is that I like the feminine look to the clothes when I wear them. It would be neat to see what it would be like to be a woman for like a week or something like that. To see the world from that pov.

I have spent about the last 30 years of my life trying to find out who the heck i am and to tell you the truth i still havent got a clue i dont see myself as either sexes but i like taking out the the best bits from both if that makes sense. I have been very lucky with the fact that i met a very understanding girl 5 years ago and we married and have two great children 90% of my wardrobe consits of female clothing shirts have become blouses and and all my trousers and jeans have also got a feminine touch to them and no ones got a clue. The way i see it you are only on the planet once (unless you belive in reincarination in which in my case i will probably come back as a dog who spends all its time thinking its a cat lol) i dont think i will ever no whats its like to be a man or a woman i am stuck in the middle and i love it

I like both sides of me. I like doing male things such as working in the yard, fixing my car and playing with my grandkids. But I also love going out dressed to shop, dine and party. Just wish there was more time for the femme things and wished my wife was more accepting. But I also would like to win 10 million dollars too!
Yours Terri
