I'm 25 years old now, and recently came out on Facebook and got overwhelming support from friends and family. I told all my direct family, my whole fraternity (aka extended family) from when I was in...

I'm one of the younger and newer CD's to this forum still, but felt compelled to say something. I saw the "genie" thread a while back and to be honest it made me a little bit uncomfortable even as...

If they can get away with THIS in the Army.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haHXgFU7qNI

....just saying....

I might go to OCS, but I really am inclined to wait at least a couple years. I am also still really interested in seeing what I could possibly do with SOF, more so than being an officer, and if I try...

Many, many people who I have already spoken to on here who managed to do it must be absolutely bats--t crazy then I guess....

Like Sue said, I'll "keep gathering information and be careful."...

Yeah, the "Triple Nickels" took the toughest training the Army had at that time to offer. I also didn't mention the Montford Point Marines or the distinguished service of the 92nd and 93rd Infantry...

You want to see the bigotry removed? Someone does have to fight it from within at some point for the bigotry to ever be noticed unfortunately. This has always been the case. Blacks earned their...

It's funny you should mention that, because as I think somebody else pointed out, the UCMJ also specifically prohibits oral sex and sex in anything but the missionary position. Some things in there...

lol, okay.... Sandra, go back to your first post to me on this thread, and just tell me again that you didn't challenge my sanity. You directly questioned my sanity in BIG BOLD LETTERS....

I...

Ok, I'm getting a lot of good advice here and am really getting something out of this. Having said that, I am trying to be respectful of people, but STRONGLY feel that crossdressers who are currently...

Thanks Angie. Really informative response there. I'm still pretty much decided for the moment that I won't even have clothing on base, the internet monitoring was what I was most concerned about. I...

At 23 I haven't started a family yet, but I've told my older sister (who was always into LGBT issues and cool about it), my mom whom I've also been dressed around a few times, and more recently and...

Thanks for all your responses.

@Sarah: Expression of enthusiasm and interest for the subject is fine too, maybe even helps get more discussion. I just don't want to look at another 2007 Democracy...

Look, I will put it on hold if I have to, but excuse me Stephenie while I ask what your military background is and what's insane about my plans? Can you elaborate and add something to the discussion?...

So what if I go use the internet on my laptop somewhere off base? Are they still going to have a way of finding all the sites I went to?

@Tracii G: I'm not going to have crossdressing items mailed to me or brought on or anywhere near base. My plan was to wait until after I've been put at a duty station, find a support group or...

Thanks Michelle. That's more the sort of answer I was looking for, and would like to hear more of from other people.

While I think it's unwise on their part, largely for the regulations mentioned,...

I'm aware of the regulations and I appreciate your well-founded concern, especially with you being someone who has been serving. I'm very much planning on not letting the military know about this...

Ellyn, I'm asking for opinions soley on my plans to occasionally crossdress without letting the military find out, and if you have never served in the military, I'd actually rather ask you...

Ok.... think I need to be more clear about some things. My parents and older sister know. My fraternity from school knows. A few friends from the LGBT community who I hang out with know. Most people...

I mean, I'm not planning on even getting online about it while out on deployment. Are they really going to monitor my internet usage from my laptop that much? When I'm in the privacy of my room back...

Hey everyone, my name's Alexis, and I've wanted to go in the Army my whole life pretty much, but also been a crossdresser my whole life and one thing I got a say, I think I've had the good fortune to...

In the process of going in the Army. Finished my bachelors back in May so I'll go in as an E4 Specialist.

You know, like a lot of people it seems, I've tried. I'm only 23, and I've tried and have gone for extended periods without it. Going in the Army I will deprive myself of it. I wish I wasn't a...

I don't identify with the LGBT movement in that I separate sexual orientation and gender identity, and gender identity with crossdressing.

I have to say though that I do care about there being a...
