Hi All,
I just wanted to share some thoughts here...
A year ago I decided I wanted to try CDing....and I talked to my wife first and yes, she freaked out for a few days and then slowly said OK if that's what you want...
So we started and I say we, because she's been involved in this from the get go to various degrees....
I came here and was a "newbie"...lot's of questons and a lot of learning...just like new girls that come in here asking about this and that, so did I. Simple things that now are common for me...sizing, quality of "this or that", make up, foundation, shoe sizes, where to buy and all those other questions that are critical to the newbies in getting strated and "old hat" to the more experience girls out there...
I started with being with the wife and having her buy me my panties...not like some of you far more experienced ladies who think nothing of shopping in drab or being all dressed up...and me thinking I could only wish to do that and would marval at how out you are..I could only dream!!!!
I have progressed (or transformed) from being a clumsy guy tying to look feminine to where I think I am getting it all down and done right....and with this has come a great sense of pleasure and satisfation in what I have evolved as a female....as Stephanie who is my female side of self....
In doing this transformation has come a sense of confidence... and with that has come a "normalcy" in going in and buying female things for me...like yesterday, I needed some panties, so I went to Target and selelcted a three pack of lace thongs (seems like that's all I wear...) took it up to the cashier to pay for it and thought nothing about it. Nor was I embarressed...today I am going to go out and buy a skirt and some tops and more than likely will try them on before I leave (like many of you have said your better off to try this stuff on before you buy it to make sure it's right...) that will be another first for me, but I feel I need to go out and take this next step....but that's what I have evolved in over the past year....or should I say that's the evolutionary process that comes along with CDing....
Soon I will feel that I've got everything down right and the need will be to wake up some Saturday morning...get my make up on and get all dressed up as Stephanie and grab my purse and head out the door and go do whatever Stephanie feels she needs to do that day....get her nails done, shop for a wig or buy some clothes and experience truly being "out" and with that will come freedom to be my female side...and with that will come the exhilirating experience of being a lady....then I'll post about my day shopping or going to the mall or whatever it is that I want to post about...jsut like many of you do already...
I expect that once I do this I will break that "barrier" that holds a lot of us CDers back (in the closet so to speak) from being that total woman....but when it happens and I break that imaginary "barrier" that exists for each and everyone of us who come into the world of CDing, then I can truly say that Stephanie has finally arrived and then look out because once she steps out there will be no stepping back....then I can look back some day and grin when I read about a new sister having trepidation about stepping and think yes, been there and done that but girl, the day will come when it's time for you to step "out" and I'll be there to encourage her just like all of you have encouraged me this past year....
So with that said I guess it goes like this..."It's the journey that counts and not the final destination"...
Thanks to all of you for holding my hand this past year....it's been great....
Love ya....
Steph
