Curiousdaughter, lots for you to think about from other replies. What I will suggest is that if you do bring this into the open don't add any extra bs on top. At the moment there are several...

My wife knows I am a member, and I would suggest that if possible it is important to let your SO know. Because of the nature of the forums, I think not being open about it is the same kind of secret...

There can be more than one thing going on when you crossdress, and though it seems like a contradiction, it's really not.

A heterosexual male brought up with the imagery of modern society is prone...

We have casual dress Fridays where I work (IT), although the dress code is fairly casual most of the time - some men always where suits, some a shirt and tie, others always casual. What the women...

It sounds fair enough to me that you say you know yourself, and also that others say you won't be the same person in thirty years time. There's got to be some foundation, but you can't base your...

It's not what it is, it's what it represents - and that is seen as a threat. My wife, on a rational level, is OK with crossdressing, as long as it is other people and their lifestyle choices. With...

Barbra,
I think the shifting boundaries are a worry for a 'tolerant' SO. You say your wife has known for 35 years?, and currently you are considering getting your ears pierced, and going out en...

Sara,
There has already been lots of good advice, so I won't repeat what has been said already. For that reason anything extra that I have to add may tip towards critical rather than positive, if so...

Yes, I was speaking for myself, Doc, but also thought it was probably a shared experience.

Very interesting to get your input, as my primary immediate concern is my face:eek:. As far as I'm...

Why does the increasing desire to crossdress (with age) coincide with a decreasing ability to look good in a skirt?

If this were to take off at all, then of itself it becomes less about gender, and more about age and environment.

Young good-looking models on a catwalk is a different matter from balding...

She was lying this whole time ? Take a step back and think about the overall situation. She is almost certainly trying to process what you have told her, and may not know how she feels about it from...

Chloe,
I agree with most of the advice given so far. I have another suggestion to add, assuming it's agreed with openness. Everyone is entitled to some 'me time' whether that is for cross-dressing...

In posting the question, I had in mind some of the emotional aspect of what we wear underneath, and it possibly acts as an indicator of motivation. I've read in other threads about how much more...

I understand that for many the underwear is everything, but what about others? For example if you're presenting as female but in a situation where you don't feel the need to tuck, or you're...

Software Engineer.

My comment on the thread would be that we see what we are looking for. For an artist, the arty replies grab your attention and seem to dominate, for the technical the technical...

If I give myself time, then I really enjoy the process and results of shaving my legs. The most satisfying though is waxing (sugaring) my underarms - because the results are perfect for a few days -...

I wondered about the denial factor that I've seen quoted occasionally - that all/most crossdressers are actually TS, but haven't realised it or admitted it to themselves yet.

It crossed my mind...

The one with the green skirt, possibly influenced by the shot - you look more relaxed and comfortable in it. It just gives the impression that it's you.

As the others have said, it's ultimately...

My right leg - in stockings rather than bare. A bit weird, but it just somehow looks more feminine than the left.

I agree there's nothing half-ass about it, it's just another option that should be available to us.

My only advice would be to take photos of yourself in the outfit(s) that you intend to wear, and...

I guess it depends on what your goal is. Based on your description I'm assuming you have no interest in being in the closet with your clothing adventures. If you are hoping for a masculine look, then...

I mentioned it to my doctor a few months ago, and there wasn't much visible reaction - I think he was slightly taken aback, but recovered very quickly. The reason I told him was a combination of...

I've never really thought about it deeply before, but isn't the 'traditional' male hands on hips stance symmetrical with both legs straight and shoulder width apart, whereas the female version is...

Slow down girl,
You are struggling to come to terms with your CDing yourself and YOU know what's going on in your mind. For your wife this is a confusing time. She has already shown some...
