Your first source when you started cross dressing

[wantstocrossdress]

From who or where did you get your feminine clothing when you first tried cross dressing? It could be your mom, your sister, a friend, an aunt who you 'borrowed' from or they might have intentionally dressed you up. You might have also gathered the guts to buy your own from the start. So where did you buy them from?

The first femme stuff I tried were mom's. I don't remember if I tried her stuff on first or if she advised me to wear tights under my pants in winter. Either or, she gave me tights or I tried her hosiery.

Very first time my cousin came to visit with a very colorful poncho 70s style, got caught and because of my relatives reaction I decided to hide my love for pretty clothes. Later my sister clothes were my favorite, this is back in the 80s so I developed a taste for that era.

I honestly can't remember why, but I also first tried on my mum's tights. Must have been 6 or 7 at the time. No one knew then, and nobody's knows now. I'm still amazed that even as a kid, I managed to hide it so well.

My first CD stuff was my Mom's (sorry Mom!)

Then it was my girlfriend's (but she dressed me up!)

Now it's all mine! (and my wife borrows my clothes!)

Mechamoose just about wrote my reply for me.

My mum's stuff was my first try on and I loved the feel and colour of the slips particularly. Red and Blue, which coincidentally are the colours of my football (soccer) team too.
Then I got to try on my girlfriends clothes (now the wife) but I get to wear with her permission now.
Now got loads of my own stuff and wife has borrowed from me.

My Mum's (for our British sisters) pantyhose and some of her dresses that she put in my closet. That was her spillover storage, since her closet was full. I was probably seven the first time.

Then various girlfriend's clothes, then my wife's, and finally, my own! And, my collection is starting to get pretty good

hmm my first souce was my sisters school plaid skirt to which i still have today

[Robin777]

For me it started with a pair of my mother's panties. A lacy pair. Then it went on from there.

From the girls on my block. We liked to play Barbies together and often traded Barbie clothes. Then the girls wanted to swap regular clothes. The girl whose house we were playing in usually had an extra dress - often one she hated, that she would let me wear. They were surprised that I actually looked very pretty, even with my buzz cut.

I did this for about 3 weeks, a few times a week, until one girl's mother, who was a religious fanatic, flipped out and made sure I couldn't play with any of the girls anymore. Then I had to switch to the dirty clothes hamper to get my mom's clothes. They didn't fit as well but it was the best I could do.

I wonder if there's someone here who's first source was dad or another crossdresser.

[mechamoose]

I'd love to hear about that too!

My kids can. Their Dad wears frilly things, and they don't care. The first time they saw me with painted nails and wearing a skirt they didn't miss a beat. "That's just my Dad"

to what extent would you help them in dressing up?

[tifftg]

I started with my Mom's clothes, loved those long line girdles. Quickly moved to my sisters stuff when she went to college. My bedroom was in the remodeled basement which was also a storage area. Oh I loved those years, late 60's early 70's

[Adriana Moretti]

OK...so this is the 3rd time a thread like this has been started....thats my cue........

[mechamoose]

to what extent would you help them in dressing up?

I'd loan them clothes and help them with makeup. Though that wouldn't help my daughter.. our figures are too different. Damn!! She is curvy!

I "borrowed" my sisters bra's, could be considered handy downs since I did need one.

[Diedre]

My mother did sewing and alterations to help with income. No sisters and many times I was used as the dress form to hem when the skirt or dress was in my size.

It was back in the late 60's and I would often wear a panty girdle, bra stockings and slip along with heels during the hemming. She thought nothing of it, it was just a way to make money.

I started really liking it and would stay in the lingerie a little to long after the fitting was over which did not go unnoticed. Soon after my mother got a dress form from a second hand store and I was out of a job.

[Brittany CD]

Waited until I was an adult at unviersity to go to the thrift stores

[LoriFlores]

My first source of girls clothing was my sisters. I would raid her dresser every chance I got when left home alone. Much later, my first purchase was pantyhose from a drugstore.

[Beverley Sims]

I had been dressed when younger but a bra I found in the street when I was eight was the trigger.
I then saved and bought my own stuff.
I did acquire castoffs from the girl down the street.

[TessaGirl]

It would have started with used girls' jeans bought
from charity shops around the time I went to
university. Most other things like female underwear etc,
came more than a decade later. Either bought
from shops/car boot sales/ebay, or scavenged from peoples'
rubbish outside houses (then washed!).

[CarlaWestin]

Mom's bra drawer. Simple as that.

[Tami Monroe]

It all started with my mom's pantyhose when I was about 10....the rest is history.

[Farrah]

Trial and error!

[Adriana]

I started by wearing my Moms clothes at age 7 or 8. That's when I put on my first pair of tan pantyhose and have been hooked ever since
