I think we have some biological predisposition to it. Whether its from some combination of genes, epigenetics passed down, hormone combination in utero, or prepubescent developmental issues theres something different going on that makes us susceptible to this. I could have found myself just as compelled to look to model trains to make me feel at peace for all I know. Either way, I see us as a beautiful example of diversity that makes society more rich with color. I wouldn?t give it up for the world.

Genetics, epigenetics, nature, nurture, heck - past lives or karma, who knows? I certainly don't.
All I know for sure is that in my case, it definitely wasn't nurture. I was never encouraged. I lived in mortal fear that I'd be caught in something feminine, like a skirt I might have "borrowed" from my sister.
But - I also know that as soon as I knew there was a difference between boys and girls, I also knew that I was on the wrong side of that divide.
I've struggled ever since and always will.
Dressing, along with a few other nods to my "girlier" side, helps keep me from having a total meltdown.

All I know is that I do this to be happy after long days at work. To feel like a different person for a bit. I never considered to myself if anyone in my family has cross dressed.

I don't dress because I just like women's clothes. Of course I do but I am quite sure the strong feminine element in me simply needs that as something natural. I desire female clothes as well as female body, life and sexuality. Genetics, epigenetics, the period of puberty? Whatever was the cause, I think I am the owner of a female brain and even if this alone does entitle me to be called a woman I desire to be one.

Like all of you who have replied, I don?t think that there is any one precise answer. If there is, I don?t know it. I can only speak for myself. I had a fascination with women?s underwear. The desire to wear it was actually addicting. Eventually, that included outerwear as well. But why it was so addicting, I will never know. Recently I learned that there was a strong link between autism and transgender individuals. And while I don?t identify as either, I wonder if there is some pre natal influence for us.

I don't think I have ever really questioned why I do this. I consider my life to be richer for it though. There are feelings and emotions that go through my mind that will never be experienced by those who don't CD.

Why do I enjoy crossdressing?
Not sure.
In the history of men on earth.
Has crossdressing always been present?
More likely in some countries?
Or cultures?
