You probably can't tell but I'm setting on my hands...
Oh heck, I'll jump in. I think my situation may be a fairly common one. My wife is understanding and supportive. However, this does not mean by a long shot that she is also pleased and happy about it. I am fortunate in that she loves me and has put up with me for lo these past 25+ years. She is a wonderful, intelligent and very practical woman and she understands that being CD is very much a part of who and how I am and isn't something that I could change even if I wanted to. Which isn't to say I couldn't hide it as I did for many, many years and would do so again if she asked me to. The only person in this world I would hide my real self and go back in the closet for.
With all that said, if there were some sort of magic, anti-TG pill that she could slip in my coffee that would make it all go away and give me amnesia for it, she would do it in a hearbeat. My guess is there may be other SO's out there who wish for that pill as well.
To answer the original question, though. Yes.
Hugs...Joni Mari

"Because equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women. And the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who's confronted with it."
--Joss Whedon, to a reporter who asked, "So why do you create these strong women characters?"
I fall into the category of those whose CD'ing finally sank a marriage
that was a little iffy anyway, after 20 years. My ex is mad as hell
about the "deception". Having a close friend to share with is one of the
greatest things in life........
Very supportive.
Supportive in every way apart from she is now saying that i spend to much time on here ( so she could end up being you savior) i am beginning to agree with her

I have full support.
but i think she acknowledges it..finding panties in the laundry was a start.
lovin to dress...
Mine knows, but she's not real thrilled with it.
Any money found in the laundry is MINE!

She isquasi-supportive. Maybe tolerant is the betterword. Out of respect for her, I don't push things too hard. So far, it is working
I would have to answer just the same as Joni Marie Cruz. Only I've been married for 16 years.
Let's just say that my girlfriend realy loves the fun and games associated with my female side! She's an expert when it comes to roleplay.
My wife knows, she told me she knows and then nothing, so does she support it by knowing and letting me get on with it unhindered or by not talking about it is she saying no way am I ever going to support you in that one!!
My wife know about it, I guess hse understands that this is just part of me that can't be changed, and is tolerating it for that reason.
my sister's reply when I told her how I prefer to dress
"Everyone has there thing, all that matters is that you are happy, love what you do and who you do it with"
Mine is happy that I am who I am and we are also best of girlfriends to boot.
I am in love with the most understanding GG and my biggest fan. Jennifer, I love you!
Mine is very supportive to the point of helping me try different styles of clothing, shopping, and even surprising me with an occasional fem gift.
My wife was somewhat tolerant, in that my CDing was OK as long as she didn't have to see me dressed & I didn't wear her clothes.
If my wife got over her fear of having others find out that I crossdress, she would be 100% supportive. She is astounded that I am brave enough to go out and do normal everyday activities as Annie and although I spend a considerable time around her dressed, she refuses to ever go out with me to a movie or to a club for fun. It is a situation in that if I want to go out with her, I need to present myself as a male and if I am dressed as a female, I go out alone. So if keeping score: 50% supportive.
my wife is aware and is okay with me being who i am and understands that cross dressing is always going to be part of me,what i would love to happen is that she asks me to go shopping to buy clothes together,or if she were to buy me some female clothing that would make my day.
Totally supportive to the point of borrowing some of my outfits, and giving her honest opinion on how I look.
Hey Girl, My wife is 100% supportive!
I love Jesus!
Life is so much better now that I know who I am !
I am a lucky recipient of a supportive wife!
Depends on the day however more days then not doesn't like it.
My wife of 45.5 yrs. she tolerates it but it's a don't ask don't tell
thingee it's hard to tell sometimes she had some makeup she
didn't want she left it in the bathroom sink I said what are you
going to do with it she says well somebody will take it.
Then she was cleaning out her dresser and threw some
pantyhose and a garter belt over on my side of the bed
then cleaning out the closet some nice tops and a bathing suit.
But it's don't ask / don't tell.
Boy o boy am I ever confused I just stay within my boundrys
and life is good.
No body ever said being a lady was going to be [EASY] .
