I agree - what man doesn't like undressing a woman?
My take on your advice for newbies:
"Get your ears pierced (more macho and sensible than tattoos)" --> I've never heard of pierced ears being referred to as macho.
"Cut off the straps so they...
I agree with Kris Burton in that I dislike the term "sissy" and find it a derogatory term of reference. I live in the UK and although I am aware the term here, I tend to find it is more of an...
I don't know if in the US what you refer to as "assisted living" is what we in the UK refer to as "care homes". If so, I'm with Wendy-Lyn in that I'd die first. I would seriously head off to...
I've been crossdressing for over 20 years but I have never viewed myself as "trapped in male body". In its purest form, crossdressing is nothing more than wearing the opposite sex's clothing. They...
Donna, "Sometimes I wonder if women have amnesia or do that they think we do." - women can't remember they suffer from amnesia.
It can be just as arousing thinking about crossdressing as the act itself. This enters the territory of autogynephilia and I too (probably like many other corssdressers) have such thoughts. However,...
I'm the classic crossdresser in that I enjoy wearing the clothes, footwear and accessories. I also wear makeup but not very much and hardly ever wear a wig. And looking like a woman, acting like a...
Cecily ... and I thought you were going to say that you smelt them and never washed them. Ah drat - what a downer to the story :-)
Qu: Why do some women hate wearing a bra?
An: Because they wear them 16 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Jolene commented that "In my estimate the % might be around 3-5 % of men crossdress and maybe 10X that have tried it.".We'll never know the true number of crossdressers because many keep it a secret....
Thanks for your detailed post, which I enjoyed. I see it all the time on crossdressing websites and forums in which people state "...my feminine side...". I've always found this fascinating. So, I...
Regarding the environmental impact of clothing, people wear clothes [we have to by law!] and when you have 8 billion of us there is an associated impact. And with 3 new mouths to feed and cloth being...
A good post! I fully take onboard your comment about buying 2 sets of clothes. I find men's clothes so dull and drab that they are purely functional in my mind and as a result don't spend much on my...
Barbara Jo - I've not heard that one before: "...only the lucky get to be old...". A nice philosophy to have.
Fiona, thanks for the link. Looks like the book is not long out and also see it on Amazon-UK. A few years back there was an exhibition of Bowie's costumes at the British Victoria & Albert museum in...
My username on this channel is Julia Bowie, with the Bowie selected for no other reason than being a lifelong fan of Bowie. Bowie has been a sort of distant friend all of my life as I have listened...
I like wearing women's clothes. I don't view it as a fetish. There are healthy fetishes and unhealthy fetishes. I don't have a problem with a healthy fetish but try to stay clear of the unhealthy...
My take on the older aspect is that older men view their "hobby" as crossdressing whereas many younger people view it as falling into the more general transgender category. As a result, an older...
A crossdresser is as young as the woman he feels.
From Edinburgh - have a happy Burns night :-)
I saw another thread about if you could go back 20 years, what would you differently. And this one asking about missed opportunities. I tend not to look back or into the future - and believe in the...
transvestic disorder is the clinical term used for someone who has a serious problem when it comes to crossdressing and the use of the "opposite sex's" clothing for sexual arousal. Consider when a...
When I'm not crossdressing I'm messing around with my motorbikes, gardening, etc and I've always found I have to keep my nails nice and short otherwise they'll split. And that's with wearing gloves...
