It started around 5 or 6 for me with my mother's hose hanging to dry in the bathroom. I progressed to my sister's skirts and dresses as I got a little older.
A few weeks ago, I was waiting to check out with a pair of jeans and a couple under garments. It was a woman's store, so the jeans were definitely for women. An older man was up at the counter with...
Glad you had a great rip Stephanie and that your wife and step daughter are so supportive. Thanks for sharing your report.
I went various places today about like Angela described. Skinny jeans, woman's polo shirt, small forms, no wig or make-up. Meds I'm on are changing things where I feel a bit exposed wearing a t-shirt...
It's great that even though your wife doesn't want to see you dressed she is taking steps to support you. Good for you also, for respecting her and not pushing too far, too fast.
I would consider myself in a DADT relationship with an unsupportive wife. There have been a few occasions where she "borrowed" something of mine. As Connie said, that brought a smile to my face. It...

I've had the POW moments, similar to what Jamie described. I left a store and was walking across the parking lot and it suddenly hit me that I was wearing a dress. I had honestly forgotten...
Your friend likely saw the car, but not you. A close call regardless. Aside from all this, I hope you enjoyed your ride Tricia.
Welcome Sandy.
I agree. My femme self is much calmer. As Genifer said I have a much better understanding of the woman's perspective.
Sounds like a great week Jamie. Glad you enjoyed it and became so comfortable.
Congrats Maggie. I'm glad it went well. I also plan on wearing leggings for a trip up there in a few days.
Welcome Brooke.
1. I told her less than a year after we were married. I really wasn't sure about myself before. The dressing had always been an on and off thing. I think I was in the mistaken group of people that...
I was definitely influenced by some of the women I worked with. A few times one of them would show up wearing something identical to what I had already bought. I always thought that was interesting.
I always go through the "I wish I would have said something" routine after I've run into someone. But I think it is better not to say anything beyond the standard interaction and conversation I'd...
Overall, it sounds like a great experience Billie.
I got a "ma'am, sir, ma'am" from a SA one time. I don't think it was meant to be mean. The place was crowded, he turned quickly and he started...
I'm glad you got out and had fun Savannah. Not turning back now.
Congrats on the job and having the nerve to do it. Have fun and try to control the spending.

Sounds like a great evening. I would tend to agree that your wife noticed. Has she ever said "you look nice" when in men's clothing? As others have said, it sounds way beyond what I would...
Trying to navigate a snow and ice covered parking lot wearing heels.
Sounds like a great night Monica. All that for $80 is a real bargain. I'm not sure I could walk by people I know and not be recognized.
Well done Camilla. You're correct in that it is a relief not having to panic about any small thing being found. I hope the boundaries set are things you can stay within.

Your wife's concern may have been over "borrowing" something of hers. One of my wife's comments early on concerning my dressing was "get your own stuff". Her borrowing my stuff is OK...
