I haven't been here in a while because, well, the urge to dress had left for a month or two. But it's coming back.
A couple of interesting things happened recently:
I had the opportunity to attend a kid's birthday party last week and noticed one of the boys wearing Uggs. So, I ask his dad (a good friend of mine) about it and he says that he wears them all the time everywhere. Then, he turns to his son and says to show me his feet. He takes off his Uggs and shows me his painted toenails.
I was blown away because I had had a conversation with this kid's dad over a year ago where he said he could not understand how a crossdresser could not be gay.
Anyway, I think the next generation of crossdressers will have things a lot easier than mine did. One of my other friends (about 15 years younger than me) told me he wore skirts in high school and college.
OK...so about the hobby thing. Last night, I am sitting around bore while my wife was doing some work so I told her I was going to the bar down the street for a drink. She said that I needed to find a hobby.
I would love for crossdessing to be my hobby (she has been supportive since I came out to her). But there is the fact that she is uncomfortable with me shaving my legs or wearing a wig. And she hates it when I talk about shaving my goatee. And we haven't even talked about makeup.
I would love to see how I look completely as a woman. I would like that to be my hobby.
So, now I have put this out there and I don't even know what to expect from it. Guess I just had to get it off my chest.
