That's a worry for me too! My eldest son is an adult and lives in the same city. He's never just dropped in unannounced but he could!
If I'm completely honest it's only him (and my younger one who...

Came here to say exactly this!
This week it was a skin tight dress that I thought had a 50/50 chance of fitting and looking good. I love it! :)

Thanks everyone for your replies!
My hair is now still only a couple of inches long (having started from a #2 cut all over) but still growing - though still no idea of what style will work best for...

I'm short sighted so need my glasses constantly!
I gave up on contacts years ago and frankly think I look better with glasses than without.
When my dressing became more than a in-the-bedroom-secret...

Nice to see someone so local! I'm in Hampshire, on the coast.

I think Chiffon's right - it obviously depends on exactly where you are, but I think the expectation for a lot of us is a negative reaction, whereas in reality the majority of people out there have...

Ah, yes - that scale exists as the Kinsey Scale, though it only has 7 increments. And I agree, though I think a lot (most?) people who would describe themselves as "straight" or "gay" would put...

I do wonder what percentage of CDers are straight versus more flexible sexualities. To this day I'm not sure if I love to feel fem because I'm bi and (for me) feeling fem fits so well with being with...

It does sound a bit DADT, Helen.
Which isn't necessarily the worst thing in the world if its worked for as long as (it sounds like) it has.

Hope that if it leads to a talk then everything goes OK!

What an excellent post, so many people with similar experiences to me.

I started wearing just lingerie in my teens and it carried on like that until last year.

Looking back it should have been...

That's so lovely to hear, I love a coming out story with a happy ending! (I came out to a friend for the first this weekend too)

Thank you all for the positive comments!

I thought I should address the use of alcohol. I wasn't properly drunk, at least not sure much that I wasn't in control of what I was saying. Being...

I posted a while back that I was thinking of coming out to my three closest friends - https://www.crossdressers.com/forums/showthread.php?284017-Coming-out-to-my-oldest-and-closest-friends&highlight=...

I often dream that I'm CD'd. I'm always feeling super confident and easily passing for fem (ah, if only!)
Usually I feel a pang of - maybe loss? - if I've woken and remember the dream.

It's great that you don't feel the "need" to be full-on male or full-on femme, and even better that you're wife's accepting.
I love hearing of situations like this.

For me it's the risk of being seen by someone I (we) know who's opinion we might care about.
I recently came to terms with exactly who I am, after spending most of my life feeling that my dressing...

A lot of AI written 'content' seems insightful, but (as a professional IT geek) I get that it's really, really good at pulling information from lots of sources while having no actual understanding of...

I think my head knows that if I had any interactions with the police while dressed then they'd behave professionally (in the UK). My heart however would definitely be pounding the first time!
Love...

Looking great! Just goes to show we can be as "out" (or in) as we want. I'm planning on coming out (at least a little) next month to some close friends - I hope it goes as well as this!

Thanks for all the opinions!
I'm lucky enough to still have all my hair, though now I've started growing it I can see it's a lot grayer than I'd thought! (When it's shaved to a #2 with clippers it's...

I'm relatively happy with my weight, body hair and most of the things that people have mentioned so far.
I'm a bit on the too-tall side but I can live with that... I think the one thing I'd like...

At the moment I'm dressing a couple of times a week, though just around the house, or with occasional walks around the neighbourhood (though covered up with a big coat!)
Does it count if I'm fully...

Early 20s, when I first moved in with my (then) girlfriend. She was size FF though so they fit so badly that I don't think it counted!
Despite dressing in other ways over the years, I didn't buy my...

So glad to hear the second visit went so well Joey!
Absolutely love to hear good outcomes like this, hope it makes you feel as brave for the next time.

I'll admit I'm intrigued! I've seen the ones made from ABS plastic and metal, but I've just seen some made from silicone. Does it need to be rigid, and so the silicone one would be useless?
