Do you get turned on just seeing yourself dressed?

I do not want to sound narcissistic, but I find myself getting turned on be the digital photos I have made of myself. Part of my crossdressing enjoyment is the sexual part, but I just enjoy looking at the different versions of me. It is fun to play with different looks and styles. It is not quite as good as the real thing (which I really miss) but it will have to do for now.....

Another thing that came as a bit of a shock, my pictures actually turned on a couple of other members here.... That felt pretty nice actually to be seen as a sexy pretty gurl, even if it was not all me.

I defunitely do the sexual part is the best part..

Every time I dress I get a sexual kick.

Youre not alone.

Totally!! Everytime I dress, I stand up in front of the mirror and look at myself endlessly. I also like to touch my breasts and get hard just doing that ;-)

At the end of every dressing up session there is almost always some playing involved...

I do love just feeling feminine, though, and getting looks when I go out, etc. When I get a nice compliment from a posted photo, etc. Also when a GG tells me I'm wearing a cute skirt or she likes my shoes, etc.

Nope

Er--no, not really into myself Hon.:heehee:

Well, it used to be there was a huge sexual component to it. Now when I look in the mirror it's more like, "Girl, you need to get your ass to the gym and btw, did you put your makeup on with your eyes closed?" So no, not so much.

I think for me there is some of that... although my wife keeps asking me "who is your favorite girl... besides yourself?" LOL

to me sex has nothing to do with it

[SIZE="3"]Not sexually but I do view myself as attractive or more attractive than a normal gal.[/SIZE]:gorgeous:

Turned on? Hell, I can't even find the switch. How ever I do enjoy the feeling of the material. Does that count?

Not to the degree I did when I was younger and, I must say, WAY hotter, but still quite a bit.

When I look in the mirror and don't get turned on by the girl looking back, that's the day I'll hang up my heels.

Have you seen my picture? I think I have better taste than that in women but I still enjoy seeing myself and thinking dang girl you need work! and then I try harder

somedays yes( more when i was younger ) and somedays its not turned on more like just being normal, in a you look good gurl go out an have fun kinda way,
i guess the more girlie i become the more i feel natural and dont think about getting turned on

Its a yes for me every once in a while!!! I still enjoy seeing my fantasy girl in the mirror!!!

No I don't get turned on by looking at myself. But I do get a very warm glow from wearing the clothes and looking feminine. Not sure whether that does it justice as it is hard to put into words how it really feels.

Maybe I should re-evaluate it then...:heehee:

Yes, dressing up turns me on and seeing pictures of myself dressed turns me on too.

Dressed? Naw not really, I can look in the mirror and feel that I look good or not.

I get turned on seeing myself naked in the mirror. Wait that is another thread.

Karren quit trying to antagonize Kelly, that is my job.

I love to look at photos of myself dressed and made up. Those photos have provided me with a lot of pleasure over the years

I can see where your coming from to a point, with me i have been dressing with a gorgeous wife for so many years, it's easy to be complacent and just dress, i love to dress to the mood she is in on that particular day/night, if she wants a casual night then i dress casual, if she wants a sexy night i dress sexy, the photos are very interesting because i can never plan what i am going to wear, so yes i do look back at some of our photos and get turned on by them because sometimes when on the spur of the moment it's maybe not what i expected to do, but the results are?

When I was very young I got very flustered and panicky which caused some 'excitement' (in case I was caught) but now I'm much more confident and relaxed about the whole thing. Having said that when I take time to scrub up I admit it is a bit of a turn on....

I don't get turned on but I am amazed that it's me in those pictures.

Sometimes I get the wave of nausea followed by the irrepressible urge to throw all my make up away and take up a new hobby. Usually I just look at myself and go "That'll do pig" and go watch TV

Joni, Thats exactly the same thoughts I have (lol). I can pass.....at night.....If it's moonless......from hundreds of feet !!!!!!!:brolleyes:

It used to be a turn on to be dressed when I hadn't yet come to terms with myself around who I really was, and why I felt the need to CD to begin with. But since I've 'come out' to myself and acknowledged this very real and important side of myself, dressing feels more natural and not really anything sexual. If anything else, dressing is relaxing and calming for me and provides a way to let my inner feminine self out for even a short amount of time.

Sometimes I get aroused but most of the time is a nice warm feeling :hugs:

No part of me gets 'turned on' sexually by beholding, but there is a power transference that feels.... something. Blissful? My affect-higher-self, from the mirror, mesmerizes my affect-lower self, and subjugates it. Just hypnotizes and melts it away with eye contact. This form is designed, in image, partly for this purpose, and is close to the truth.

Then, I am in control. That could feel sexual to some, I guess. When I relieve the thought burden from my lower consciousness into the higher one, the lower experiences thoughtless bliss, and oneness with the higher, then is opened to my suggestions and advice.

I should just get a diary, but this works better, and is necessary sometimes. :D

I`ll second the motion of a nice warm feeling,,,,Eroticism may raise its ugly head after a few `pops` though,,,,its not the reason for being femme though,,,,at times just a short compliment to the feelings and look,,,

After 50+ years of this, I still get a sexual thrill from dressing. Only part of it is the feminine look in the mirror, my corsetted waist, my breasts, my OWN legs encased in sheer black nylon and perched on stiletto heels etc. and I suspect that when I eventually get around to make-up and wigs, it will just complete the picture. An equally large part of the thrill is the feel of the clothes; the caress of satin on skin, the restriction of a tight skirt, corset and high heels, the tug of suspenders, especially if I put my long satin gloves and caress my own body all over, then I'm on cloud nine, and in need of release. My particular sexual fantasy would be making love to wife, similarly dressed, but a complete change of atitude to anything CD will be needed before that can happen, sadly.

I have to agree with Melanie. Once I made peace and accepted myself it wasn't sexual anymore. I'm a girl and that is what I see in the mirror and the pictures I take.

As a CD, that is!:heehee:

I'm a 60+ y/o man. I'm TOO OLD for sex!:brolleyes:

But, fortunately, Sherry is about 25 to 35! And she LOVES SEX!:o

I find her pictures; exciting, erotic, and sometimes, UNBELIEVABLE!:eek:
But, I have NEVER had sex with, or because of, pictures!:straightface:

Seeing Sherry live in my bedroom mirror, is another matter entirely! :D We almost always conclude our dressing sessions with her playing with an electric toy!:devil:

touch Myself? well maybe if there is nobody else to touch Me

I like seeing myself dressed but I wouldn't call it turned on. I'll get turned on when a GG does my makeup.

it all depends on which gender is on inside my head. If it's my maleness.. then yes, its happened. I went into my bedroom once to change out of my girl clothing, and i caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and started to flirt with myself in the mirror, lol. When my mind is in femaleness, There is no sexual intention with it, its just completing myself, and making myself look how my mind feels.

I'm not my type.

I definitely find it a turn on being dressed and I get a buzz out of posting pictures of myself, but not sure looking in the mirror or looking at pictures of myself is a sexual turn on. So, I guess it's the act of being dressed rather than seeing myself...

Oh, I'm way too past it to be turned on by myself. Enjoy your youth. If you have the courage, take hormones. Those with too much testosterone will eventually lose whatever cuteness they had. But then so do GGs. Life is unfair that way to all of us....Dee

Mmm hmm!

That was what it used to do to me when i was much younger but now I love to see myself dressed and it gives me a nice feeling but not a sexual one

The last time I looked into a mirror while dressed, it cracked. I do not want to buy a new computer monitor.

No -- too old

For me, it's still a turn-on, especially when I dress a certain way, like a short skirt or a LBD.

It used to be but not any more. I think the more you do it the less the sexual thing comes in. I do look in the morror and think 'sexy girl' now though. I may be mistaken of course

I do feel a slight increase in blood flow for certain yet it is more out of excitement to be dressed again than being turned on. :daydreaming:

More than anything I think viewing images of myself dressed simply stokes the fires of yearning to be able to dress in what I want when I want.

Yes,it's a feeling I always want to be there.In a way, it's a confidence builder as well,a reassurance that I'm doing something right.I feel,we don't have to crucify ourselves about being turned on.I don't get exited every single time I dress,but when I do, I surely welcome it.

Yeah, you're definitely not alone. I hate admit it, but I'm a little vain :heehee:

Sometimes while in drab I just like to pull up some of the photos I took. I find it really cool to look at them and see a different person.

Unfortunately I also do get a little sexual kick out of it, which is making me a bit nervous to go out for the first time.

After careful re-evaluation... I am going to stick with no. Boys turn me on, not girls :heehee:

That's a big AMEN, Hon. I also get a big kick out of seeing myself in a store window at night. They are like giant mirrors, you know. Just sort of stand there, like you're window shopping, or lookig at some product in the window.
But my videos are the best.:D
