    crossdressing is illegal

    I was talking with a friend while waiting for the bus. Halloween parties start Saturday. I said i'm wearing women's clothes Saturday. "Nancy" sitting on the other bench was listening. She said "Crossdressing is illegal, you'll get aressted just for that!"
    She also said "I saw a crossdresser get arested downtown!"
    I said "she" was doing something else besides crossdressing!
    "Nancy" kept saying "he!"
    It was fun playing with Nancy's brain! she would be the one to call police and tell them there's a crossdresser on the bus! I was in guy mode today.
    Oregon passed domestic partnership law:

    I don't think so because............

    The mayor of Silverton, Oregon is a cross dresser, so I wouldn't think it illegal.
    I did a little more digging and found that it is NOT illegal to cross dress in Oregon.

    The Fashion Police have a warrant for my arrest.
    It takes a real man to wear a dress.

    To go along with that I have been stopped three (or four) times by police. Every single time it was at night and two times they simply asked if I needed a ride, another time they asked for ID and gave them the ID, they check it out and went on their way.

    Yeah. Crossdressing is BAD! It's one of the leading causes of the demise of this planet!


    LOL!........

    Enter the Radiohead song here: "But I'm a creep
    I'm a weirdo
    What the hell am I doing here?
    I don't belong here."
    So I like dressing like girl. BIG DEAL!

    Crossdressing is illegal -- that's why I never wear a cross.

    Crossdressing is not illegal - the Taliban hasn't taken over just yet !!

    BTW: The first thing I did when I arrived at Atlanta airport last month was to walk up to a policeman and ask where the taxis left from.....


    ......and no, I'm not writing this from my prison cell

    There are still laws on the books in some snall WV towns that make crossdressing illegal.. That's why a lot of crossdressers would carry two male socks with them in their purse.. That was enough to keep you out of jail.. Personally I wear always my comphy male cotton briefs and have a pair of short male socks in my purse when I'm out enfemme in WV.. Get out of jail free underware! Lol.

    In some cities/states, there are laws on the books that state it is illegal to dress as the other gender in order to commit a felony. However if you are just crossdressed and are NOT breaking any laws, there should not be any issue, however check with the local hall of records to determine the exact wording of those laws.

    Someone once told me "Put on Your big girl panties and deal with it". If they only knew, I WAS ALREADY WEARING THEM.

    I wear the bras and panties so my wife doesn't have to.

    Hi, I wasn't going to chime in, since this ground has been plowed over and over, but oh what the hell. As far as I know, and I have done some research, there are no laws that make it illegal to dress in the clothes of the opposite gender, whether m2f or f2m. There may be some laws, as Kandis stated, that make it illegal to go about "in disguise" in order to commit a crime, but that's a different kettle of fish.

    Really, if any one has some citations regarding a particular statute and/or ordinance that is still on the books in some jurisdiction or other, it would be so interesting to see it. So far it all seems like rumor of the "I heard..." variety.

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."

    It is not illeagal unless you are completely trying to disguise yourself in order to avoid confrontation ( usually the law).

    If crossdressing was illegal every GG (i.e. real, genetic girl) would eventually be arrested. Every time they wore a pair of Levis 501 jeans they would be crossdressing. All you gotta' do is see which way the fly goes, left over right or right over left. Same thing for shirts, t shirts, etc., etc.

    sounds like gun laws, they vary widely from one state to another so oregon is ok but denver only has toilets now



    seems there's precious little interstate crossdressing.

    not so... every pair of jeans i own are either womens or JR sizing and ALL are made just like mens in the fly... the difference lies in the ZIPPER and how its attached... not the flap.. only womens blouses and only old ones to boot are backwards..


    on a technical note.... \\

    mens 510 levis only differ to womens variation in the over all rise of the waist to crotch seam... all other aspects are same when compared size for size... womens are 7.5" of rise... mens are 9.5"
