Hi Di, I'm interested to know if these questions are coming from GGs only or CDers as well?
1) is there anything you could tell your younger cd self what would that be?
Tell your future wife.
2) What is your greatest cd goal you have reached?
Try on heels. How is that for a life achievement.
3)When you dream are you your male or female self?
My male self. I have had a few dreams where I would crossdress. But none where I would trade my Y chromosomes for X's.
4) How often a day or week do you think about crossdressing?
Usually no more than once a month, and probably less really. It comes more in waves (look, here's my pink fog after all). Since I came out to my wife, I'm introspecting my crossdressing several times a day, but not thinking about doing it.
5) What is your favorite hair removal?
Oh you mean hair, not hair (I was that close to answer ageing). My favorite removal tool is opaque pantyhose. Which is not comfortable in all seasons as we don't have air conditioning in our flat, so that makes me a hibernating crossdresser species. I just happen to hibernate in summer, so my crossdressing self doesn't meet bears very often (which is fine with me, I mean, pantyhose and claws, always complicated).
6)We have read some crossdressers say they dress to escape, what does that mean to you? Escape from what?
That is indeed something I tell my wife. When I do, she is offended. Because I say something like "Dressed as a female I don't think about my male problems" -> ergo: females are brainless and I would so much enjoy being in their shoes, thinking only about dresses and frilly things. How is that for offending. Fortunately that is not what I mean. Women have as much problems as males do. They too are pressured by social codes and expectations (be this, do that, biological clock is ticking, and Bob Loblaw). So, women should like to escape too, once in a while, after all.
Back to the drawing table, I asked myself the reason why I was alluding to "male problems". And I realized that the actual feeling would be more aptly described by saying "When I dress I forget about my problems", period. But because my crossdressing requires distancing from my usual self, and my usual self is male, if you ask me which kind of luggage I dropped when doing it, "male problems" will come to mind. I think it is just that: another way of saying that I forget about my problems for a while.
So, why do I forget about my problems? I identified three reasons:
- Because being dressed as a woman sends me a long way from my usual self. I feel like an astronaut walking on the moon in my XX suit. I am walking and lounging in the same surroundings as usual, but all feelings and sensations are new or different, my female costume is subtly altering every interaction I have with the physical world, when I move, walk, cross legs, extend arms, it's always there, resisting, hugging, rubbing, clicking. If I look at myself, at my body, it's me, and yet a different version of me. It's a little out of body experiment to some extent, I am looking for example at legs that don't seem to be mine.
- Because I concentrate on myself and the whole experience when I crossdress. I do so in private and this is a moment just for me. I take time to dress, to put on my make up. Then I spend time enjoying the feelings and sensations of being clad in a woman costume. These are both intense and peaceful moments.
- Because I feel safe in that female costume, it somehow pampers me. It hugs me and I feel it around me, like a shell protecting me, or a thin armor (as I write these lines I realize it may sound like I am writing about a uterus). If you like disguises or have done some amateur theater you may know this feeling. The costume shelters you, behind its cover you become free and less inhibited, a more genuine version of yourself that drops the everyday act and gets ready for a new experience.
All of this makes for a moment of loneliness, peace and softness, of introspection too at times. I describe this to my wife as being my own private spa, a place and time where for a few hours I tend to forget my problems, where there are no conflicts and no stakes. That is my escapism. And what do I escape from? Well, anything that would worry a man or a woman. Work, providing, bad decisions, illness, death, and of course bad hair days (yes, we have these, too).
7) Do you have a place for your clothing ect or is it hidden?
I have a suitcase in the cellar. All my earthly female belongings fit there. My wife knows where it is.
8) What does crossdressing mean to you?
A moment to myself, where I can explore and linger in my fantasy, and be all around content.
9) Has it changed over time?
It changed two years ago as I finally could put together a small wardrobe of mine. It enhanced the experience, without substantially changing the nature of it.
10) If so how?
I can better fit the female presentation I had in mind for years. It allows me to identify more as a woman wearing these clothes (not as a woman per se), and when looking in a mirror I can better play this game of wondering how I could have looked like if my spermatozoid had tripped and another one had won the race. It made the sexual element of dressing recede substantially, although an erotic vibe is always present as I am much receptive to the female cues.
11) Is there someone you would like to spend the day dressed with?
No. I like to be alone when dressed. If my wife asked to, I probably would oblige. If she doesn't, thats fine with me.
12) For those that are in a DADT relationship/ how did that come about?
Not in DADT. More in DHDS (don't hide but don't show) as we are talking. I came out not long ago.
13) Do you revise it as needed?
My wife must restore her trust in me. For this to work she needs stability. Revisions will be complicated.
14) How often do you dress?
A couple times a year physically. A few more times in my imagination.
15) Do you wish for more time?
Possibly. It will be based on my wife's comfort zone.
16)Is there a difference in you dressed or not? Explain if there is a difference.
I am more quiet and peaceful than in my best moments of quietness and peacefulness in male mode, except maybe for scuba diving. I explained it at length in question 6. It is one of my motivations for dressing. And I watch Supergirl episodes, my guilty pleasure.
17) Starting out-or even now Is there something you had/ have trouble with getting your look you desire?
I had no wardrobe so it was a little amateur theatre there. Happy now.
18) Is there an article of clothing you pine for? Wedding gown, just an outfit you admired anything in Particular?
No. Happy with what I already have.
19) Do you have a hard time communicating with your partner about your cross dressing?
No. We talk a lot. We don't agree about everything, but have open discussions.
20) is there anything you would like me to ask in another post for next time?
For those in a relationship that's not completely DADT, have you tried to have your SO join the forum? Did it help your SO and yourself? How?
-

Daily.

this is who you are, this is how you feel most comfortable dressed, own it and let the world deal with it

that i have reached so far would be to dress as i please at home

5) What is your favorite hair removal?
shaving, legs, chest and face
6)We have read some crossdressers say they dress to escape, what does that mean to you? Escape from what?
i can definitely chime in on this one.
when I was working and dealing with the stresses of everyday life, The time I got to dress was like a mini vacation from the world
i would come home from work, shower and get dressed, and the days stresses were left behind if only for a short while
women may come home fro work take off their bra and put on there pj's to relax
for me, taking off the work clothes and getting dressed was my escape from the daily stresses and bs
having been a blue collar worker, every day of your life in the same uniform, coming home covered in grime from the day
dealing with greasy cars all the time, taking time for me to get dressed pretty, definitely helped to balance my life a bit
7) Do you have a place for your clothing ect or is it hidden?
when i was younger it was in a toolbox in the garage, now they hang proudly in my closet
8) What does crossdressing mean to you?
crossdressing means time for me to dress as I feel most comfortable, time to just enjoy being me
9) Has it changed over time?
sure has
10) If so how?
started out as a fetish for me. over the years it has evolved to be an extension of ray, the fetish part is gone
now i fully dress whenever i can, full dress from the neck down.
when I look in the mirror now, I realize in my mind that is i am supposed to look.
kinda weird i know, full female body from the neck down and a male mind and head
definitely something miss wired in my mind, :lol2:
11) Is there someone you would like to spend the day dressed with?
I would love to just be able to enjoy a fun day with friends dressed as I please without judgement
12) For those that are in a DADT relationship/ how did that come about?
I was in a DADT for a while when I first came out to my wife, I told here and she said she did not want to see it
or know about it, I had my own office in the house, and my clothes hung in the closet in there
over a period of time she grew more accepting, the got to taking the kids shopping with her
to allow my time to dress. calling before she got home to give me time to get changed
eventually she stopped calling and met Raychel. there was times she was still not thrilled about it, but she dealt with it
marriage eventually failed, not because of the dressing
13) Do you revise it as needed?
yes it was revised as my wife determined
14) How often do you dress?
every day when possible, Nightgowns for bed, usually Raychel time when I get up and have morning coffee
and raychel will be around until I have to go out in the world for some reasons
15) Do you wish for more time?
16)Is there a difference in you dressed or not? Explain if there is a difference.
externally sure, a 60 year old fat guy in a dress, with DD's definitely a sight that wont be forgotten soon :heehee:
but as far as the way my mind works, definitely not, still the same messed up place in my head, :lol2:

not really, I am happy with t he way i look, the world would definitely have issues, but in my mind all is good. :)
18) Is there an article of clothing you pine for? Wedding gown, just an outfit you admired anything in Particular?
not really, for a while i thought a wedding dress would be fun, or a maids dress for working around the house.
but that was just a passing fad.
19) Do you have a hard time communicating with your partner about your cross dressing?
no real partner here now. but no in the end of my marriage I did not have any problem talking about it
and anyone that knows me now knows, so I can talk freely now
20) is there anything you would like me to ask in another post for next time?
How much money spent daily weekly and monthly on dressing?
on average for me usually not that much, but when I am feeling down the price definitely goes up
retail therapy, last month was about $100

I'm a bulky guy, I'd like to be slim and androgynous, so that explains how unreachable it is.

(1) Cd-ing does not mean you are a homosexual. That was the common belief back in the 1950's and 1960's. Very confusing.
(2) Going out en femme with makeup, wig, heels and hosiery, dress, and all the proper undergarments; bra, panty, slip, garter girdle
(3) Female self
(4) Every day as I come to this forum and peruse ebay and elsewhere for femme garments.
(5) Shaving my face as I have no hair follicles on my legs and arm pits
(6) Escape from thinking about service in Nam. When alone I tend to digress into war related events
(7) Hidden in plain site; twenty or so Xerox boxes stacked up in a converted garage. Panties in 12 USPS priority mail boxes
(8) Means a time to feel relaxed.
(9) Yes, as a teen it meant a sexual outlet; masturbation enhancement. Now, it's just dressing to feel comfortable. Also comfortable in my male clothes.
(10) Now it's all or nothing. No half way measures with the exception of wearing panties
(11) My wife, but, it is not ever going to happen
(12) My wife and I use to use lingerie as a little "kink" until she and I realized there was more to the mindset than a "kink." "If I wanted to be married to a woman, I would have married a woman!" she said.
(13) No, she hasn't said a word since the mid 1980's
(14) Hardly ever since she had a total knee replacement and fully retired. I do sleep in a nylon nightie and panty; separate bedrooms due to snoring and medical reasons.
(15) Definitely
(16) No
(17) Too tall at six foot and 200 pounds. It would be great to be five foot seven
(18) I love full slips and nylon long gowns.
(19) There is no discussion at all.
(20) Can't think of anything, but I will PM if I do.

18) Is there an article of clothing you pine for? Wedding gown, just an outfit you admired anything in Particular? Yes, casual shoes that fit. It seems that all the large size shoes are more fetish wear.
