Deep inside I always knew that there was a strong female side of me, I just didn't know what to do about it. As a kid I would dress in my mom's clothes whenever I could, then for years dressed only intermittently. Told my wife within our first year of marriage (45 yrs ago...) but since i rarely dressed it wasn't an issue. I think it was coming out to friends, and the support from this site, (and from my wife and GG friends) that maybe 10 years ago opened the floodgates. I had been dressing more and more over the last 20 years, now it is part of my life.
