Taking a tiny risk

I sleep in a silky nylon nightgown every night (at least in cold weather I do). In the morning when I get up, I put on my robe (also silky) and slippers and go out on my driveway to get the morning paper. The tiny risk is that someone might see me. It is sort of exciting, and makes me feel a little bit naughty.
Compared to going out in public dressed as a woman (something which interests me not at all), this probably doesn't seem like much, but sometimes the small pleasures are the best

I know what you mean, I love pushing my boundaries. I will frequently wear dark hose with no show socks. Last night I wore my shortest pants, that ride up and show off my ankles, I was wearing my black tights with polka dots so there was no mistaking what I had on. I kept my legs shaved all last summer, just anything to push myself further. I am to the pointt to were I hate having to hide myself anymore.

Sounds like you want to get caught. Be careful what you wish for.

I think it may be part wanting to get caught, the thrill, and part wanting to be accepted. Last time I dressed I went out at dusk to rake some burning leaves. It was thrilling, being dressed not the fire, but I also wanted it to feel normal. By the end of the night I got that normal and accepted feeling.

Perhaps by telling people that you CD, you are seeking both that thrill and that normality we seek.

I too love taking tiny risks, granted mine are different; but we're individuals, risky excitement is what it is.
:)

I think we all take a risk every time we dress, if your not out. I've been dressed in the security of my home to the max before and the fed X guy shows up. Luckily I did have to sign anything so he left a package at the door. I've been dressed and out back behind my house on my porch. I usually can hear any one that comes driving up but once I heard a car door shut and someone knocking on my houses side door. I panicked and hid behind a grill we have on the porch. Luckily the neighbor that lives about a 1/4 mile down the road knock several times walked by to his truck and then left some mail that was ours that had been put in his mail box. He opened the screen door and set it inside the screen. I'm thinking it's really not if we will get caught but when will we be caught. I dread it if I ever do. Maybe secretly we are wanting to be caught. Especially the thrill of pushing the edge.

had panties on under mythin lounge pants and bra, put on long sleeve grey tee shirt (was a little chilly) went to front door and there was the fed ex guy with package in his hand ,Ifroze you could tell I was wearing, luckily he was in a hurry so I thanked him ad closed the door quickly xcitement factor from 1-10 a respectable 7

Go down and be the man they all expect. What ever your wearing they are gona think wey hey the mad twat! But build on that and do it more. Everyone thinks I'm a mad English man who is up for a laugh so just go with it and make it as bizarre as you can cus the neighbours NEED a bit of gossip. If you get me ? Laugh at the incredible un intelligent .
Luv ya loads

It is difficult to see color in the dark so, unless the sun is already up and the robe is very feminine looking, nobody is going to notice anything when you step outside onto your driveway to get the morning paper. And if it is bright enough to see color, I hope your slippers are pink :)

Small steps little by little add up to big steps! Slow but steady. You take a risk every time you step outside your door! That is part of the excitement with dressing at first! Hugs Lana Mae

Those little risks are so much fun and such a thrill, my wife loves it more then me. I also don't wear male socks at times and walk in the mall taking little chance that when I walk or sit my pants ride up alittle and show some pantyhose. Little thrills.

The tiny risk do add up like Lana said, and eventually they no longer feel like risk at all.

I don't think you should downplay the significance of your outings. Everyone in this forum who goes out into the wide world dressed up began as you did, with steps similar to yours. You are on the same "journey of a thousand miles" as the rest of us. Keep it up. It gets easier and more fun.

It's more than a "tiny risk". Your neighbors are getting up, getting their morning papers, walking their dogs and looking out to see what the weather is like. If you've thought seriously about the risks and are OK with them, fine. If not, this is your warning.

Going out in public dressed as a woman is less of a risk provided that your presentation is good enough that you aren't recognizable, you stay away from places where people might know you and provided that you dress and undress somewhere away from your home and neighborhood.

Still seems like a small risk to me. I live on a quiet street; few cars go by, and the dog walkers seem to prefer a later time.
On another topic, there seems to be the feeling here that my gowns and slips are just a starting point to more cross-dressing. I suppose that is possible, but it seems unlikely. I have been wearing nighties and slips for decades and have never had any desire to go beyond that. Ten or twelve years ago I bought a bra, thinking it might be fun to try stuffing it with a couple of slips to make fake boobs, but it wasn't. I got rid of it within a week. So "Gownman" I am and "Gownman I will remain.

The risk is when and weather. I've done it for years. I have satin robes and a couple silk ones. Obvious women's. Talked to neighbors while wearing them. I think all my neighbors know about me. One day one of the women was out to get her paper as I was getting mine. She came over and started talking. The wind was blowing and both of us had our night gowns showing as we held our robes. We talked for a few minutes and said our byes.

Another time I reached out to get my paper and swung around as my robe fell open exposing my long black nightgown to a neighbor walking by.

My slippers are indeed pink, my favorite color.

In the winter time when it's still dark out in the morning, I would wear my black pumps while I go out to get the newspaper. There's a street light right outside my house so it's not totally dark. I do get a thrill as I look up and down the street before leaving the shadows from my porch.

Hi

Hope we all had a nice Xmas.

I too am taking a small risk today - as it's last day at work of the year I am wearing a bra to work for the first time (small, flat, no forms). Feel a bit conscious but exciting :). It is of course also Frilly Knickers Friday.

All the best + have fun over the New Year.

I think you should recognise that this isn't a tiny risk, it's a very large risk- which is why your femme subconscious drives you to do it- she badly wants to come out into the light and cares little for the consequences to male you.

yes the subconscious just pretends to be "sub". I wear pop socks all the time - black quite thick, usually ladies trousers - but again not obvious, sometimes a crop top often a blouse - again not obvious. But I know and feel daring, often i think that I would welcome someone "saying something" but they haven't so far. So a bit more daring as time goes on and opportunities to be more out come along. When I am with people "who know" it is very relaxing so my subconscious says the more people who know the more relaxed I am.

I agree with one of the posters here #4 I beleive that we also want to be accepted phylis is no different she is always asking "philip" if she can come out and play too :devil::heehee:

Wanna bet? I'm curious, and don't mean to be discourtious, as to why you are with us "gender bender" types on this forum if you truly are just a gownman. Might you enlighten us just a bit?

I just like the feel of the silky material, though I do prefer feminine gowns and slips with lace and such. I may do other things later, but I don't think it is likely. I have been like this for decades.

We need an 'other' person to witness us [ so often we use mirrors] to motivate dressing beyond what just feels good, and you are getting enough of that on your morning runs. Enjoy your desires and their satisfaction!

This morning I went to BJ's, Aldi's, and then had to stop by a house I used to live in to pick up the rent from the mailbox. I was wearing a new black skirt, Sheer Energy Nude Pantyhose, ladies pumps, and a long sleeve male pull over shirt that I have had for a long time, no bra. I did not wear any makeup or wig and have a goatee. Any person that saw me would have known who I was. When I went into BJ's the guy at the door was a regular. I smiled big and asked him how he was doing. He smiled back and said good. I smiled and strolled thru the store confidently. I am sure some people thought I was crazy, but I am not concerned with them. Any person that I had contact with were friendly. One lady shopper at Aldi was very nice and said something like "hi darling".

The vast majority of us who have ventured out have done so by pushing the boundaries a little at a time. Each extra step brings with it an element of a thrill. This might be in the form of an Adrenalin rush or post event euphoria. It can become addictive to some extent. I know there are those who got up one day, put on there glad rags , slap and wig, took a deep breath and stepped out and that was it, job done. Even they I'll wager felt that rush inside.

Those who dress indoors still have that feeling, the potential for being discovered, the postman or neighbour calling. It's in our nature that we instinctively try to keep ourselves safe while also being inquisitive creatures who like to explore new places.

Yes, my fluffy warm guy robe is pretty long but it still leaves about 6/8" of nightgown showing. I used to slip on some pants or hike it up when going out in the yard for whatever reason early in the morning. Now I just figure it'd be hard to tell from a distance and if I was noticed, I don't think anyone would say anything. Our neighbors are mostly older women and I believe they'd most all be "Eh, so what?". If we were in a closer neighborhood with younger, manly men around I might feel and act different. I've actually considered inviting one of the neighbor ladies that I don't know very well over for a morning get-to-know-you coffee/chat and greeting her in a nice simple house dress. Just a passing thought...

A female friend of mine always waves when we drive past each other, she knows my car, but hers is just average and I don't realize it's her till she is on top of me, we have never past each other whilst I'm fully dressed, but it is bound to happen, I wonder what she will do or say the next time I see her after it happens, I don't really care as long as she is not negative or abusive towards me about it.
