What would your dad think of your crossdressing? Would he approve? Would he freak out?
Mine would totally freak out,too homophobic.:2c:
I have seen pictures of him at drag shows from his younger days, over the top vegas type shows, I guess he has gone a few times based on the pics I have seen. I have thought about telling him a few times, but probably will not. If I had to guess, I don't think he would freak at all.
he would freak out
he cought me wearing pantis when I lived at home and he was not happy about it
He knew and so did my Mom. He chose to ignore it. They were both overjoyed when I got married and gave them grandchildren. They figured it "cured" me, I guess. I never let on one way or the other.:happy:
my dad would not approve of my dressing let alone my transition he would still love me but not understand why i would want to turn in to a woman. he was a good dad did the best he could at that time but transgendered issues he would not get
Would not have approved. Freak out, not sure.
My dad would certainly ignore it also.Quote:

back in the day he'd freak out whenever he'd see me with nail polish or anything, frankly I could care less though, he lives hundred of miles away and I havn't talked to him in over 3 years
He would be a bit freaked but would never have mentioned it. We never discussed anything even distantly related to sexual behavior or gender identity. My mom would have been OK with it, she would want her panties back though.
[SIZE="3"]My dad?? I'm Thirtynine and I think he would freak out, and try to spank me like when I was a boy.:heehee: [/SIZE]
My dad would abosulty freak!! He is the most close minded homophopic person I know. But hes my dad.
I don't think he would be happy with it, but I am pretty sure he would roll with it.
My father would freak, in fact he did freak and it led to a time in my life where I do not go. The two of us never saw eye to eye again and it fractured the family.
I didn't know my Father very well he died when I was very little. But I did tell Mom..... She freaked out and told me that we could work it out. Well when I showed her she said that she never wanted to see me like that ever again. I met my wife and she thought I was cured...... :tongueout my wify helps me I have the best wify!!!!
My dad found (and threw away!) my stash once and we had a very one-sided 'talk' where he made me promise that it was just a phase and I wasn't ever going to do it again.
I was so nervous about having been caught that I readily made the promise.
Fortunately, by that time was old enough to move out of the house and did shortly after. I think he suspects that I still dress, since he knows I don't like visitors that don't call first. If he DOES just stop by, he'll beep when he pulls in the driveway then sit in the car for a minute before coming to the door. Just enough time for me to change! :)
My dad was not amused or very accepting when I was a youth and he found a suspicious stash of female clothing in my room. He did mellow as he aged though and I'd like to think that if he were still alive that he'd be okay with it. Not happy, and not completely understanding, but still relatively satisfied with the type of father, provider and husband I turned out to be.
FREAK OUT!! Oh yes, can anyone spell D-I-S-O-W-N???
A :doll:
He would kick my pink pantied ass he would...love him though...
My dad was one of us! :eek: I am not kidding! I wish he were alive so I could talk to him about it- I found out after he was gone :(

My mother 1st. found my lil stash of G.C. @ around age 13 & totally lost it, though she didn't say anything 2 my dad, he would have lost it completely! given me the beating 4 sure. She did not approve then and told me she would tell him if I didn't stop. But she never said; a word 2 him or ever mentioned it 2 me since:eek:.
My mother was pretty cool about it when I told her a few months ago. I think dad could handle it too, but my mother advised that it would be a good idea not to tell him, at least unless it became an issue. She said he would just worry about any potential problems I might encounter as a result (he is the worry type). Maybe some day I'll have that talk with him if the time is right, or if something comes up that needs an explanation.
At one time I had my left ear pierced 4 times and right ear pierced 2 times, along with hair almost to my waist, and he handled that fine, so maybe that's a good sign that he could handle this.
He may freak or have a heart attack, but I don't want to find out.Quote:

My Dad knows and understands. He asked me not to long ago when i was getting SRS :D
If only i had the funds. :(
The only time my dad saw me in a dress was Halloween the year I was in the first grade. My mother and the neighbor lady dressed me and her daughter up as twin Shirley Temple dolls. (I'm sure that was before the time of most of the folks here.)
I had ringlets in my hair that went nearly to my waist. Usually when my dad was home mom would put my hair in a pony tail and dad would just ask her when she was going to get my hair cut. He was a roughneck on the oilwell in Montana and Wyoming so he was gone a lot.
Anyway I stopped at the neighbors house on the way home like I always did to wait for my mom to get home. While I was there she put more bright red rouge on our cheeks and more very red lipstick on us so we would be ready to go trick or treating when my mother got home.
After a while she got a call saying that my dad was home. I thought that was great because mom never put me in dresses when he was home.
The older sister of the girl I was in school with walked me home and when I dad saw me, you could just see the color drain out of his face.
He had the girl take me in and get me changed and wash my face because he didn't want his son looking like "that". When she got me in some little boy clothes dad took me to the barber shop and they set me in a seat that looked like a jet and I got my first haircut that I could remember.
He never saw me in a dress again.
I take that back,
A few years later both my parents decided for some reason that if my mother would dress me up as a little girl that I would behave and not get into more trouble. Were they ever wrong. That didn't last very long.
My dad died when I was very young, but from what I've heard about him, I would say that he would at least give me a chance to explain and he would genuinely listen. I don't think that he would "freak out," but he might not be able to understand it very well.
Mine would have completely freaked out, over the years he has put 2 and 2 together and had even told me when I was about 20 or so to, 'snap out of it and quit doing it'.
Guess what, still dressing and thats probably the reason I am still in the closet, although getting closer to venturing out one of these days.
I don't know. He died in 1993 at age 71.
He dosen't approve of the shaved legs, he just shakes his head....
My mum found my things a few times and said she'd tell my dad, and if that had of happened, i would have been belted black and blue. Then kicked out of the house FOREVER.
He would have freaked out, no doubt about it! :eek:
Dad doesn't know, nor will he ever know. I don't think he'd take it very well.
hi girls my dad found out about my cd at 16 he locked me up in his church but naked for 4 days my dad is a peticostal preacher for them 4 days in the church i did not have nothing to eat i am 31 now after he let me out he give me a spanking from hell to back i still wear scars from the spanking at age 29 my dad was on his death bed and ask me for my forgviness.he aslo told me he accepted me
Aloha,
Freak out would be an understatement! He's old Army, a retired Master Sergeant. I'm a retired Army Reserve Officer (Combat Arms). Get the picture girls?
BTW, do you know it's a bit difficult to type with a champagne buzz at 2355hrs!:drink: :heehee: Let alone walk in high heels in the hotel room. :eek:
Especially since I've been up since 0400hrs!
I am very sure that it would not help our relationship at all. Major freak out, I am sure
Much to his credit I don't think he would have had a problem with it.
Remember Archie Bunker? My father was the model for the show. The show was tamed a bit and edited for television.
he would have died, but he passed away almost 12 years ago, so since this has developed later in life for me, he never knew. Better for both of us, I think.
Well what Father wouldn't want his son to grow up to be a crossdresser?? Duhhhhh. Yeah Right!! The number of accepting Fathers equals the number of accepting SO's divided by 10,000.. Lol
My father passed away a year before I started crossdressing again.. Might be part of the trigger.. Who knows.. From prostrate cancer... I miss him dearly.................
Now you've gone and gotten me all weepy eyed......

Dad never knew but I think he would be OK with it :hugs:

My dad was really old school and would have totally freaked out! I would have had to leave home (pretty tough for a toddler!). My mom sorta knew but never acknowledged it. Both are gone now. I'm thinking of telling my brother, but he has his own problems to deal with.

I remember my dad openig the garage door to call me to dinner when I was about 6. I had on one of my sisters' skirts and was twirling around the garage. It was never mentioned.
When I was about 14 my mom was rolling my hair at the kitchen table as he sat about 10 feet away reading the paper. I don't think he ever looked at me. I spent a lot of time in curlers when I was a kid, but he worked 4 p.m. to midnight, and I didn't see him much. I tried to avoid letting him see me. I remember another time when I as probably about 8. This was back when my mom rolled my hair only for special occasions, maybe once or twice a year, if that. She didn't do it to make me look like a girl. She did it to tame my frizzy, curly hair. We were going to my grandfathers' funeral. She'd rolled my hair before I went to bed. We got up in the wee hours of the morning for the 5 hour drive. She said my hair was still wet and I'd have to leave it up till we got there. I could tell he wasn't happy about me being in curlers, but he didn't say anything untle we were pretty close to my uncles' house when he told her she needed to get those curlers out of my hair.
I wore some pretty girlie looking clothes in high school. Some were, if fact, girl's clothes. I remember once he saw me wearing one of my favorite shirts. He said, "That shirt's got darts!". I said, "What are darts?". He said, "They're these seams that are there to make room for a woman's bust. That's a woman's shirt!". I'd been wearing that shirt for a long time, along with a lot of other things that turned out to be women's clothes. My mom had bought them for me. I guess she knew they were women's clothes (I never asked). I didn't know. I'm pretty sure she bought them because they looked nice, fit good and were affordable. I didn't think they were overtly feminine.
I remember once him telling me I needed to "quit this pantie-a** stuff". Don't know exactly what he was referring to. Could have been a lot of things.
Looking back, he was pretty open minded for a former Marine. I'm sure he thinks its all long behind me now. It'd probably kill him to find out it wasn't.
Step Father was complete @#$ hole, would have probably killed me. Natural Father was probably too drunk to care.
My dad, bless him, would have been the peacemaker trying to calm my mother down, because she's flippin' mad.
My father passed away in1984, but he grew up in the old south where men frequent KKK meetings, worked on cars, drank moonshine, and etc. I really think that if he had caught me when I was a teen dressing in my sisters clothing, he would have had beat the living hell out of me. Yes, my father belonged to the KKK back in the 50's, which was scary in itself.
I think my dad would be okay with it. I know he liked a lot of different things and was very open to new things. I have a stepsister that is butch and he was ok with that. Didnt cut her out of the will or anything.Quote:

That's probably one of the reasons I am TG.
First, my dad is dead. Second, he disowned me when I was eight months old, long before I ever crossdressed ;) Yes, he literally disowned me; married to my mom for 17 years, had other kids with her, and later claims two of them were not his. What a <censored> <censored>.
Mom discovered when I was 13. Gave me the lecture. Just taught me to hide things better.
My dad (rest his soul) came into my room (picked the lock) to wake me for work one morning... Threw the covers off of me and I was wearing a bra and panties. Oops! "What do you think that thing is... A C***?!?!" Needless to say, I didn't go to work with him that morning. He was royally PO'd.
:hugs:
i think mum and dad (now deceased) had an idea - did discover some bits and pieces where they shouldn't. glad when i settled down to a 'straight' life - had kids etc - got cured? Dunno - its ahard question - i think they would have been ok!
