Middle child... Right handed. I heard somewhere, probably here that most of us were artists of some sort. I am a musician and back in the day won a scholarship in art. Still kicking myself for not going to Arizona. I still love to play music and some people have said that my 'doodling' looks more like professional artwork than just goofing around.
well I am the oldest too so it is looking true so many here are. Karen
I'm the younger
I am the oldest of 3. and the only CD as far as I know
Oldest of four here.
Oldest boy - but only have an older sister - Im not sure that proves anything
Hi Leah: If you find that article again please post it. I would like to read it. I am the oldest of nine, Five boys and four girls. They all know but only two have seen. Now there are 4 1/2 boys and 4 1/2 girls. I've been dressing since I was Eight and now I'm 57 but I haven't tried to stop.

Oldest of 6. Always envious of the pretty things my sisters got to wear. Now I have prettier things than they do.
i am the oldest of three! :)
Middle Boy/Girl, two older and two younger, But there is a possibility that one of the older ones might CD. But have been out of touch with whole family for many years
Oldest of two (me and my sister) with a single mother.
I've often wondered if my desire to crossdress comes from differences in how we were treated.
I got clearance clothing from K-Mart while my sister had a $50/month budget for clothes (in the late 80's). My mom would tell me that girls clothes cost more.
Since my mom was single, she would say I was "the man of the house", but I didn't get any authority with that. I was supposed to keep my sister out of trouble, but my sister would say "you're not my father" and my mother wouldn't back me up.
If I hit my sister I was warned that I was going to grow up to be a wife-beater, but if my sister hit me I was expected to take it because I was a boy and I was older and bigger.
I was taught to open doors for women and stand up when they stood up at the table and a bunch of other old fashioned chivalrous behavior, but there was nothing in the other direction about women giving respect to men.
Hope this doesn't blow your theory, but I think being born into a family with three older sisters that was so poor that I had to wear hand-me-down clothes til I was 12 probably had something to do with it. <g>
No, seriously, I was the oldest too. You may be onto something.
I havnet heard this before, but I am the oldest so there could be truth to it.
Yet another oldest here, with a younger brother and sister.
Second most common seems to be the youngest child, but not a lot of middle kids.
I have never thought about it but I am also the oldest. I have three bothers and two sisters and I am the only CDer as far as I know. They all know about me but it does not seem to be a problem. I do look a lot like one of my sisters when I am dressed. I think my mom may have had an influence on my dressing. My being the first born boy and she wanted a girl. I have been told she dressed me occassionally as a girl. I don't remember.
I'm the baby, youngest of 7, 5 boys and two girls.
older sister,big tomboy.two older brothers that died as infants,and me ......i often wonder at that small tender age because of my moms loss at not having a girly girl,and the grief of lossing two babys i was somehow her proxy of a girly girl. no real memories of any thing ongoing, just small things i remember from time to time........coments?
Hmmm, I'm the oldest but I only have 1 sister.
