My older sister put makeup and lipstick on me and then later dress me many times, i was 7 and she was 14...I first had a lipstick fetish, then it evolved into crossdressing
Had to be my Mom's stockings hanging off the shower curtain and her lipsick on the counter, i was about 8 or 9 atvthe time.
while maybe 7 or 8, I tried my sisters panties and loved them. but I didn't get into any other clothes for whatever reason. a couple years ago I finally bought a bra and fell in love! then I decided to try dresses and skirts. why didn't I do this a long time ago? because I love them! I had wanted to try these things but didn't. now I do and I go in public sometimes
not sure really i just found female clothing so much more comfortable and relaxing
This is the question that has always plagued me. Yes, I tried on Mom's and Sister's panties when I was young - probably 13 or 14 and it was quite taboo and exciting as well. And instead of "growing out of it" I guess, for lack of a better term - I became addicted to panties, then additional lingerie, bras, stockings, slips, etc. Later, wanted to do more and complete the look with outerwear. I thought it would end when I got married, but no, the addiction is still there. It is still exciting because the opportunities to fully dress are so rare. So, who knows? Perhaps Ellen is on to something that sets us CDs apart from the young boys who have tried on a pair of panties and then forgotten all about it.Quote:

Bugs Bunny! When I first saw him crossdressed, I could see the fun he was having in all his feminine finery. I needed to try it out for myself and now its part of who I am.
No big deal one day I had no clean underwear so I bought a pair of moms never thought much about what I was doing. Over time it just became the thing to do. My mom question me On occasion asking me if I have worn them she made a big production out of it so I never thought about it being wrong. Later in life look into other articles of clothing ,I do enjoy wearing skirts. butt that wasn't something a young man dead back in those days. I really have no desire to be a woman. Today at the age of 70 dressing is a activity that I look forward to and address wholeheartedly I thoroughly enjoyed being me weather I am perceived as a woman or a man makes no difference as long as I look presentable and I'm reasonably attractive
Exactly! Been hooked since, 60 years now.Quote:

My older sisters dressed me in a long line open=bottomed girdle for a lark. I was very young, perhaps only five years old or so.
I thought it was a wonderful feeling and my sexual exploration from then on centered on dressing as much as I could.
I always was fascinated with watching my grandmother in her open bottom girdles and full slips and stockings and this led to exploring her drawers and my mom's drawers.
Dressing started very early with me....
I can still remember dressing up in my grandmothers girdle, stockings and slip and having her right downstairs in the house unknowing and watching thru the window into the backyard so i could
get everything off in time as my sister walked home from school (could see her from afar from that window)
As a teenager, I was supposed to work on an event as stweard, but eventually I had to work as a stwardess due to the uniforms availability and strict dress codes. My female workmates on the event provided a lot support and helped me to dress with enough female dignity....I had a great night with they both then...hooked since then.
I recall that about 7 or 8 years old, I had the very best feeling by trying on my mother's slips and nightgowns. Every time she would go out and leave me alone in the house, I would put her things on. My curiosity began to build about bras, girdles stockings and panties. By the time I was a teenager, I would dress up fully with Mom's clothes and her breast enhancers including stockings, heels and skirt and sweater. I would walk all over the neighborhood at night. I know people saw me, but no one ever said anything. I was scared once when a car with two middle aged men pulled over to the side of the road and tried to pick me up, thinking I was a girl out at night alone. I did not dress again until several years later. Now I go out dressed regularly to many places such as hair salon, nail salon, grocery store and bank. I am always underdressed at this stage of my life and my hair has grown below my shoulders and frequently gets me addressed as Ma'am even in drab mode. I really feel I could transition but too many family members depend on me to be their "rock." I do get some people telling me to cut my hair or wear less femme footwear, etc. but I dismiss them by saying This is how I like to look. I still escalate my going out in public to more places and wearing more femme or, at least, androgynous clothes. Life goes on.

I began wearing stockings and pantyhose at age 4. I don't recall dabbling in other clothing items. It was pretty much pantyhose every day and once in a while stockings. At 17 at the urging of an ex girlfriend, I wore pantyhose out openly with shorts. I was so nervous about getting noticed but much to my surprise no one seemed to.
Men's shorts were shorter back then but I wanted them shorter. I wanted to show off more of my legs. I bought some girls jeans type shorts which were shorter. They were a different fit but I liked them better.
I used to go out to dressed in my shorts and pantyhose to shop for and buy more pantyhose. One day while on a cashier line waiting to buy many pairs of pantyhose, a girl noticed what I was wearing and buying. We got to talking. She wondered why I didn't wear any other feminine clothes. She began buying me some lingerie to try. It was OK and she got a kick out of it so I wore it for her.
Then she thought I should go dressed up as a girl for a Halloween party at her college. She would go as the guy and I would go as the girl. I was reluctant but she reminded me that I would be wearing pantyhose and showing off my legs. That seemed exciting and appealed to me. Out we went buying, some dresses, heels, panties, bras, wigs and makeup. We chose a dress I liked best. It felt natural and comfortable in it. We chose a wig we thought looked best. She helped me with the make up. The heels were awful. I could barely stand in them, let alone walk. When I saw how much sexier they made my legs look, I knew I had to wear them. I wore them in the house everyday and went out walking in them at night. In a couple of weeks I was totally comfortable in them.
I was anxious the night of the party. I nearly changed my mind. Walking from the car to the building was scary not knowing who I might run into and what there reaction would be. No problems there. Then getting inside I worried about the same thing. When I walked into the room it seemed all eyes were on me. Girls were entranced with my look and clothes. I got lot's of compliments. Guys seemed to be intrigued, confused and embarrassed. It's like they wanted to hit on me but knew I wasn't a genetic girl or they were just nervous about approaching a girl they didn't know. I was familiar with the guys side of this encounter but now I was experiencing girl power. It was an amazing night and so much more fun then I could have imagined.
That night, we won "best couple costume". I won "sexiest costume" and "best legs". To top it all off, I met other guys dressed fem who dressed often and had dress up parties. I got invited to join them. So I went from a 4 year old kind playing with stockings to an 18 year old cross dresser and that was just the beginning.
Great question and one I've tried to answer for some time. I don't recall any one thing as a child, but when I think back on my childhood there was definitely an attraction to women's things.
Wore panties when I could through my teen years and adulthood. Finally accepted that this is who I am 2 1/2 years ago, told my wife (she accepted this side of me) and since then I've been on a journey of self discovery.
I've learned that I have a very strong feminine side of my personality. Definitely more than just a guy who likes wearing women's clothes, but no plans to present as a woman full time or transition.
hello,
well, when I was young and learning to read I had books about Robin Hood and the Kings & Queens of England... all those heroic men worn colourful tights and I had to wear boring shorts and grey knee socks... so I tried on my sister's tights!
luv J
Initially it was high heels.
:)
I am pretty sure it was pantyhose!
Even in the first grade, I remember the girls in my class wearing Mary Janes and cute dresses. I so wanted to wear them. I think we were born that way, because at least for me I cannot remember a trigger to start these feeling of crossdressing. As I respond now, I am totally feminine in appearance.
Love, Sabrina
Casual thoughts over the years and a strong liking for lingerie then after 2 failed marriages it all reared up and I realised that this is where I need to be amongst my like minded friends. That is what prompted me to dress as to the why I think it is because deep down we all have a feminine side resting there but for us it is no longer resting but being the lovely here and now that we enjoy.
I've been very femme all my life...used to get teased a lot about it too...Wearing women's/girls' clothes and the need to feel/be pretty always came natural to me...
A farm girl who rode my school bus, for six years, with great legs, and wore nice dresses, and Sears and Penneys catologs.
Curiosity. I don't remember if it was a dare or I just grabbed a bra from the laundry and tired it on. The bottom line is I enjoyed doing so and have cross dressed ever since.
When, I was younger (5-6yo) I did exercise videos with my Mom as time progressed and I remember wanting to look like her and the ladies on the videos. When, I was 11yo I came home from school and Mom was at work, and I decided to try on one of her leotards and doing a Jane Fonda video and I was hooked!! I moved on to trying on her bras, panties, swimsuits, tights, and pantyhose.
For the most part I just dress when I workout, but sometimes I Just need to be girly!!

I understand that the middle child is more likely to have a low self-esteem, be introverted, and envious. Middle children often believe that they have been left out and struggle for their parent's affection. My sister was the baby in the family and was born one year after myself. She was my mother's pampered little princess, and I grew up believing that my mother would love me more if I was born a girl.
Oh and according to one study, the middle child is more likely to be more sexually adventurous. Well, I was a typical middle child.
When I was about 6 I remember we were visiting friends of my parents and it was getting late my brother and I were put to bed in the friends bed there was a beautiful dress hanging on the bedroom door and I got to thinking what it would be like to be a girl .
Then from teenage to a few months ago the idea of putting femme clothes on I seem to of mistook as a fetish. Then as I said a couple of months ago I saw a pair of faux leather pants in a store and had this overwhelming urge to buy them so after about 3 visits to the store (gaining courage ) I did so but on wearing them realised how girly I felt since then I cat get enough Ă*nd cant get it out of my head ( just learning to accept its who I am) have since bought panties which I often wear dailyand have grown my nails a bit longer than normal and shave n moisturise which I never used to do. have and am studying women to the enth degree obsessed you might say in fact to the point if I had the option to wake up female I think I would.

Tabitha,
I have never recounted my full story of how my CDing started , this is not the first time this question has been asked but again no one has recalled the same circumstances as mine and the associated dreams . I'm not claiming to be unique I would prefer someone to tell me the same situation occurred with them . I prefer not to tell it in this section but can only see the TS section as a suitable alternative. Yes it was a long time ago but I've lived with the feelings every day since then.
When I was about 12 or so and developing an interest in girls the only things around the house of visual interest were the Sears and Penney's catalogs. After a while I realized I was just as fascinated by what the models were wearing as I was with the models themselves. It just grew from there.
My wife was arranging her ligerie drawer, finding things that didn't fit. We started joking around and since I had lost weight some of those items looked like they would fit me, but after modeling them we joked I needed stockings and heels to finish the look. She laughed, "do it." I bought 6" heels and opaque stockings (they were my avatar early on) and the day I "got dressed" my wife said "wow, look at those legs, we need to buy you a dress." After half an hour she wondered why I was so comfortable dressed as I was since I don't even like costumes at Halloween. That started the conversation, we named my feminine self Tina and started a life for her, now that we understood she existed!
Definitely pantyhose. When I was 7 or 8, our next door neighbors had two daughters who played "dress up". They asked me to join them. I tried on several things, thinking...yes..they're nice. But when I put hose on, I experience a warm feeling I'd never experienced before. Now I enjoy nylon stockings, panty hose and thigh highs. Couldn't wait to play "dress up" again. 👠👗. Later, they put makeup on me. I loved it. I've been dressing completely for the past couple years. My wonderful wife helps me.
What made me start? Couldn't tell you. I just started doing so one day, however I don't see clothing as having a gender(clothing are just pieces of fabric to be worn) so that might have been why
I’ve come to think of the urge to dress is my “Salmon Spawning Genes” taking control.
And that’s the point, isn’t it? It’s not like a choice.
For those who fight the urge it’s a curse, but for those of us who accept it as a fact-of-life, the art of dressing can be quite fun and relaxing, at least it is for me.
Enjoy Enjoy Enjoy is my suggestion, after all, it’s who you are whether you like it or not, so you might as well like it and have fun with it.
I honestly have no idea...I've dressed since I was in kindergarten and I have always been attracted to tight/sheer/shiny/glam clothes...I just liked them...well before I even knew they were specifically "female" clothes.
I'm not one hundred percent sure myself. It is hard to explain where it makes any sense. My biggest encouragement was Christinac when she was still alive. We served together in the Air Force and were very close friends right up to the day she died.
I remember when I was 4 or 5 years old, of all the kids in my street, they were all boys. Then one day a new family moved in and they had a little girl. Probably the first time I'd really met a girl. I remember thinking she was so pretty, and I loved her dress so much I wished I had been a girl.
That memory stayed with me, and I guess many years later when I had a sister, I got the opportunity to try on some of her clothes, and I was hooked.
I was 11 years old. One evening after getting out of the shower I noticed Mum's new bikini knickers in the dirty clothes basket. This was 1969 and bikini and bright colourful underwear (male & female) were new on the market. On impulse I wanted to feel what they were like to wear, I'd not even thought about such a thing before. Arousal was immediate and soon experienced my first orgasm; I didn't know what it was at the time, but I knew I wanted to do it again! Decades later I have more than sufficient female clothing of all types. Wife knows, but doesn't want talk about it or see me in skirts/dresses. She does accept my androgynous dressing - more fem at home, to a lesser degree when out.
When I was like 6 I looked at my mom's dress and tried it on but of course it was too big. Then in my teens I would try the odd piece of clothing from my sister or my mom (no full dressing tho), I was also fascinated with crossdressers and TG girls anytime I'd see them on TV. It wasn't until my late 20s that I got the urge to fully dress and ever since I've been hooked!
I remember trying on my mom's heels when I was about 5 or 6. I also remember being jealous of my younger sister because she got a rabbit fur coat, hat, and muff for Christmas that year and I got an army coat and cap. I really became a crossdresser at about age 10 when I explored my mom's wardrobe. The feel of wearing a slip, panties and bra set me on a life long quest to be feminine.
My story is a little different than most, it started with the retirement of my Barber when I was in 3rd grade! I have some memories before that but nothing really solid, although the mention of the JCPennies and Sears catalog bring back visions of the undergarment pages! Anyway, my regular Barber retired and my Mom took me to the "other" Barber in our town. He was much more clipper happy than my normal one and he basically shaved me bald! I was ridiculed at school and can remember my teacher trying to console me. After that traumatic experience, my Mom ended up taking me to her Beautician once my hair finally grew back and eventually it led to me having perms and roller sets at her salon. These were not done to "feminize" me (it was the 70's and male perms were in!) but it ultimately did and here I am today! The Beauty Shop is still my favorite place and I have been enjoying them ever since!Attachment 263291
I remember trying on a few of my mom's clothes in the 1960's, when I was less than ten, but it was more curiosity than anything else. I didn't try to keep/hide anything or to wear any of it for more than a few minutes, in the privacy of the basement laundry room. I also tried playing with mom's lipstick in the privacy of my bathroom, but I never tried to wear any makeup when anyone else might see me. My only sister was five years younger than I, so her clothes never would have fit me, and I ignored them.
(Bev, I also recall my mom taking me to a beauty parlor for my haircuts, while I was still less than 12 or so. she went once a month to get her own hair done, and took me with her.)
Had my first gay experience when I was 13 or so. Nothing to do with cross dressing. It kind of scared me, because I knew my dad was homophobic and wouldn't accept me not being straight. I severely repressed any non-straight urges. I knew I was bisexual, but I didn't act on it or explore exactly how I felt.
In 1976 or so, when I was in the Navy after high school and before college, I learned to play "Dungeons and Dragons". For some reason about half of the characters I created to play with were female, and I likes playing them as realistically as I could. For example, when returning from a dungeon raid, while most of the guys headed for the potions shops or weapon shops or a tavern, my first priority was a healer and a good bath, and shopping for a variety of things including new clothes.
1983, married at age 26, and I tried to 'be straight'. Wife knew I was bi but willing to remain straight and monogamous.
Late 1992 - I'm 35 or so. I got Usenet and Internet access via work. Discovered Usenet newsgroups that had a lot of kinky on-line porn. I read a lot about cross dressing, gender swapping, and other topics that in some ways touched on the transgender spectrum, although I didn't self-identify as anything other than a bisexual male. I got active on several Usenet newsgroups that had a certain amount of role playing, and started writing fiction stories. Most of my characters were female.
May 2002, I was 45 or so. Started doing extensive on-line roleplaying as a very detailed female character, and most of the people I played with believed that she was being played by a genetic girl. I found I really liked presenting myself as a female in those on-line venues, but at the time though that would be impossible for me in a face-to-face setting in the 'real world'.
Sept 2005, I got active in a decidedly adult-oriented on-line roleplying venue, where you could see and dress up your characters in a 3D world. I guess you could say I was 'virtually cross-dressing' at that point, because I detailed every aspect of my female characters, right down to their hairstyles and lingerie.
Feb 2010 - I started writing a porn novel and posting it to an on-line forum. Several of the characters eventually experiment with cross dressing. I guess I started to realize that I really wanted to wear women's clothes myself in rel life about a year later, but I didn't act on it.
Mid 2012. Both of my parents had died in the previous year, so I no longer had to fear what they would do if they heard I was cross dressing or doing other feminine things. I guess their passing freed me to pursue feelings I had been experiencing but repressing for many years by then. I started underdressing, wearing panties under my male clothes. By the end of 2012, my wife knew, and begrudgingly accepted, that I wore panties under my clothes all the time.
Jan 2014, my wife passed away. I no longer had anyone to 'answer to' about my behavior.
March 2014, I came out to my daughter, who lived with me, and I seriously began to cross dress. Bought lots of clothes and makeup and learned to present well as a female.
July 2014 was the first time I went out of the house socially en-femme, and I loved it. No turning back after that!
when puberty hit i started to wounder what it would feel like to be a girl i never acted on it.it was always in the back of my mind then when i was 15 i crossdressed as a witch for halloween heels,tights,elvira dress.been hooked ever sence
