Well... I guess, one interesting way to play it:

If you wife decided SHE wanted to cross dress in the same way some do here? Wore a binder, packed a sock down in her pants, put on fake facial...

My wife has taken photos before, and I've taken some myself with a timer. She's suggested outfits, and poses to a degree... though she knows as much about photography as I do... which is not much! ...

I wasn't into makeup yet and always kept a sweatshirt nearby.

"Why isn't your webcam on?"
- Oh, sorry, I was troubleshooting and shut it off. Here let me turn it back on. *toss wig off, grab...

I used to dress at home while working all the time. I worked from home full time for years - it's really the time when Laura started to "come into being".

One thing to watch out for... when I...

I find the OP's post a little sad... but inside I always wondered about some of these "wonderful experiences" girls here have had at various places. First, they are entitled to their opinion, and...

I guess it would depend on my mood more than anything. I've only been out a small handful of times, and only once to an official "TG" event. I think, the more I do this, I've started to enjoy...

OMG it is definitely an art form and a talent all in one.

Even something as small as painting nails. My wife can bust out a set of nails on herself in no time, they come out perfect, and she's...

Give it time, Stevie, and tread lightly. 15 years of marriage is a good long time, have patience and give her time to come around.

Thanks everybody!!! :)

Yes it's a pretty strange transformation. :) I'm generally pretty "manly" but the first time I saw myself in the mirror with the wig and full makeup (wife did it for me and wouldn't let me see...

Yes got it from Rori's. :) She has a pretty great wig selection.

I've only been to one of her events, and that was just this past Halloween. Every time I've gone in there she's made sure to...

For a good length of time after coming out to my wife, I refused to get a wig. I don't know why, but it just seemed weird to me. I was happy with just the clothes and clomping around the house. ...

SLOW DOWN!

Baby steps.

Shaving and buying clothes within hours of telling her IMO runs a HUGE risk of overrunning her with too much. Unless her reaction, the instant you told her, was "OMG...

THIS ^^ :)

I've found the best way to get over someone insulting or laughing at you is to "flip the script", so to speak. If they laugh, and you become visibly uncomfortable, slink down in your...

I think most of what needs to be said, has been said already. This site is definitely a HUGE melting pot of people. From people who are happy being nothing more than a "guy in a dress" all the way...

I don't think I have a "cycle" in the way you mean it but can relate to the loss of interest once you no longer have to hide it. I worked from home full time for a few years and with an accepting...

LOL in reading this thread I realize I probably "outed" myself to most of my family without realizing it when I was ~4 years old.

Every time we went to visit my grandma, I was obsessed with these...

Heck I don't know that I would've corrected him.

I think I've found that dressing makes me more "aware" in general, of both sides. I find I appreciate both sides more, and appreciate my ability to switch between the two. I would love to be able...

I'm sure my mom probably knew to some degree. Like others, every now and then I would steal something from her drawers and wear it to bed, then stash it in my room when I left for school. Come back...

I have found that as my dressing frequency decreases, the time I spend deciding what to wear goes up dramatically.

When I dressed every day it wasn't much of a problem - if I couldn't decide, I'd...

This ^^^ Tough part is that both my wife and I forget, too, when giving tours! We have a nice big walk-in closet that my wife loves to show off to any of her female friends that get a tour. Problem...

As others have said - it's different if you HAVE to do it everyday.

I was in the very fortunate position of working from home full time, plus having an accepting wife - so I was dressing every...

So my first "real" outing (my first actual time leaving the house was for Halloween which IMO doesn't really count), my wife and I went to a drag show in downtown Chicago. I was a terrified nervous...

100% agreed. I like being in girl mode... but I also very much like my guy side. And if anything, the more I grow as a CD'er, the more I realize this, and the more I enjoy and embrace BOTH sides.
