We can analyse these things to the n'th degree, and I'm sure there is a lot to be taken from the many theories about why we do it. But for me it comes down to two things:
1) Didn't someone once say...
You must show us your pics!
Great first step!:) I know that 'OK' can mean a lot of things, and I hope it's something you'll be able to build on together. Let us know how you get on next time. Take care!:love:
Well put Mary ... some good, practical, down-to-earth advice.
I'm afraid it's not going to go away, and it's not going to get any easier. The more open you can be with yourself, and the people who are close to you, the better things will be in the long run.

Keri, You're doing the right thing, but please make sure your desire to be completely open and honest with your wife doesn't become a subtle excuse to let your pink fog have free reign. As you say,...
If you can afford it, have you considered using a dressing service? You can either use their things during the visit, or you could ask them to buy clothing on your behalf which you can then take...
An understanding ear is usually the best way to play it. Assuming, of course she wants to open up! Once you're sure you really know what her concerns are, you could try offering alternative views...
Hi Bev,
£150 for one hour does seem a bit much.:sad: Was it done by a prof photographer in a studio?
How much you charge will, in many ways, depend on the 'experience' you want to create, how...
Can't answer your question directly. But when you're staying in the Bristol area, you could stay over in Bath and try Sophie's dressing service in Bath. She's very nice and does a great job (see my...
Nadeen,
You've done a wonderfully brave thing. Make sure your wife understands the sacrifice you are making. You are not a naughty child who has finally decided to behave himself again. You are...
Hi Allie,
A great story! I haven't yet come out to my daughters. Just too scared at what the reaction might be ... I suppose. But I do feel the younger generation is a lot more open minded about...
Sorry if I sound like the odd one out, but it seems to me that you've got a pretty good arrangement with your wife already. It appears as though your wife is comfortable with you shaving your legs. ...
Di, What a great idea to share these thoughts, feelings, and experiences anonymously! It gives such a wonderful insight to how the 'other half' can see :love:things.
Kelly, Wouldn't it depend on how much you loved your partner before you found out? If you wanted to walk away from him because you discovered he was a secret cross-dresser, how much would that say...
Steph,
What a great story!! Maybe the level of CDing was getting a bit too much and your wife needed to call a time out to think things through ... ?
She's clearly come to terms with this aspect...
I know how you feel too!! Life's never fair! I suppose at least we can get to dress-up in private from time to time.
Does it ever make you want to 'push the envelope' with your male attire?
Louise, Could very easily be barking up the wrong tree here, ... and at the risk of teaching one's grandmother to suck eggs ... Could it be that your wife's becoming a little concerned about the sort...
A very honest and pragmatic answer from a GG who comes over as not being that familiar with, or particularly interested in, the cross-dressing scene. She makes a very interesting comment about once...
An inspiring story Kirsten. You're looking good and very much 'at home' in the photos! It is only by Cd 'rs leading by example, in the way you do, that attitides will change.
Nancy ... sounds to me like your wife is being very supportive!
I couldn't agree more Crystal ... well put!
I know where you're coming from, I've often felt the same. I have to say that I'm really envious that your wife is so accepting! How long have these feelings being going on? Crossdressing is a...
It's a real problem sharing our desires with other people. I often think that our friends and colleagues probably suspect a lot more than they let on. I work as a civilian in a military environment...
Hi Stacey, Nylon over freshly shaven legs is a truly wonderful feeling! :) Not that I've been good at holding back. Take care you don't get too carried away. If you want to explore your femininity...
