This interview by Dustin Hoffman turned my understanding of Tootsie upside down:

Apologies if the link doesn't...

OMG yes. I'd been a low-level, occasional crossdresser till my wife was diagnosed with cancer. Then all of a sudden it was 24/7. She realized it was a stress reaction before I did.

When thing get...

I dunno - or care - what's "normal". It is, however, quite common.

I often wind up doing housework while dressed. Not as an "activity" that I seek out and enjoy, but almost by definition when I'm dressed its "free time" and I take advantage of the free time by being...

This is very true: I've had shaved legs for the better part of a year now. Locker rooms, shorts, nobody has noticed (or at least said anything) except my female neighbor. She assumed it was for a...

Of course girl jeans fit differently. There are lots of styles, of course, but I favor boot cut. They're slightly constricting in the waistline/thighs and flare slightly at the calf, and they have...

Hooping for both your sakes it improves

When I wear a pair of my girl jeans, something that nobody would ever notice was made for a woman, I still feel incredibly gratified. It's like my secret pleasure.

My wife has had a double mastectomy. In the old days, she also used to relish taking off her bra after a long day. Now that we are both are flat-chested, she doesn't much miss having to wear a bra,...

Make up is still something of a black box to me. Will need rather a lot of practice to get it right, but at this time it is a great unknown.

Well, we don't really know him. While my wife is very close to this friend, it's a woman she knows from her breast cancer support group. So they've bonded about that, but otherwise aren't exactly in...

Thanks, yes. I have slowed down dramatically, and in fact haven't dressed in over a week. (Which has NOTHING to do with the fact that it's spring break and the kids have been home all week!)...

LOL - I was once browsing a M4M site and I found a profile posted by a co-worker who was at that time very much in the closet. Needless to say, I said nothing about it to him! And obviously, since I...

I've been out to my wife for a few months, and while she's still not 100% ok with it, she's well ahead of the curve in accepting and supporting. I could tell that this was burdening her a bit, and...

I wrote about this recently in the SO's forum, but I'm not out to the kids (ages 2-10) and for the foreseeable future won't be. Since I'm "closeted" to the rest of society, meaning my job, circle of...

A better question might be -- WHEN do you disclose?

It's not a first-date sort of thing, to be sure. But also probably should be told before you get engaged (let alone wed)! So ... when? I...

If you're planning on any kind of a life together, or even think it's a possibility, then yes, you should. Yes, "coming out" is a risk, and a vulnerability. It works out well for some, not well for...

This has been one of my biggest barriers to dressing more. I feel feminine and pretty and free when I am dressed - and I love the feeling. Then I see myself in a mirror or a picture and I don't see a...

I'm less horrified by the breach of privacy than at your wife's deliberately hurtful response. Regardless of how she feels about CDing, that sort of venom would never be acceptable in a loving...

All my girl clothes are in my closet, on "my side" either hanging, folded on shelves or in drawers. I separate them for simplicity - the underwear drawer is about evenly split between panties &...

My advice to you would be: go ahead and dress. Let go of the guilt, and feel good about yourself. Live life as it feels right to you. All the evidence and experience suggests that this will not go...

Good luck to you. It sounds like a very difficult situation. One thing I will offer from my experience, is that when I started shaving my legs, nobody noticed. It is just not something that people...

Congratulations. Take it slow and be patient. (Sounds like you've got the patience thing down, but don't ruin it by going nuts when you get the green light) it's a journey, isn't it?

I keep them in a folder on a second internal drive (of three). The folder permissions are set to "write only" so I can drop new pics in easily but I can't - and nobody else can - see them. If I want...

This is super common. I do NOT endorse it, but there is a huge scene of men who have sex with men, but are otherwise straight identified, and many of these sexual encounters are anonymous (see:...
