    What's your favourite theory on why you crossdress?

    None of us really know why some males become crossdressers. Yet there are many theories as to why this happens.

    What's your one favourite theory as to why you are a crossdresser? I appreciate this may be pure speculation.

    (One answer per post, please!)

    The only one I ever was able to come up with is I am what I am, I guess it part of my DNA.

    My older sister wanted a baby sister when I was born. She was 9 years older than me and took care of me like a mother. I would hang out with her & her girlfriends frequently. In many ways she was much more loving & nurturing than my real mother. When she left home to get married I really missed her and began wearing her one-piece navy & white bathing suit that she left behind. I was 11 and started dressing up secretly pretty regularly until I was 15.

    Another reason for me, is it helps to keep my aggression levels in check. In male mode, I tend to have a bad temper. As Crissy, I notice that I am more laid back, and generally feel good.

    Basically, I'm much more comfortable in a female roll / dress and enjoy feeling feminine.

    One of my ex-girlfriends threw away all my trousers and shirts.

    She moved out quickly and left her clothes in the wardrobe.

    What was I to do?
    Work on your elegance,
    and beauty will follow.

    I was an only child and my mother's little girl. And she made that plain to me.

    Have they found that crossdressing gene yet? Until then, no.
    My theory, an event in early childhood from which I experienced pleasure. The event could have been something I saw, touched, heard, etc., such as seeing and hearing high heels, touching a fabric, or watching a lipstick application.

    Maybe a grade school teacher or several, in nice dresses, hose and high heels! Maybe that smokin corn silk, and catnip? Maybe born this way, genetic brain oddity? Not sure why. I know i had a wow feeling very young, about girls with long shapely hosed legs!. I had no confidence around those girls, but only with ones i was not attracted to. My first sneak and dress was with hose. So i had a fetish for hose, and long shapely legs, as my mom had. I could have hose on my long shapely legs, so legs are always what i highlite, at age 61. I do agree there is some brain factor.

    I believe I was born this way. I say this because I started CD'ing when I was around 4 or 5. Why would I, at that age, all of a sudden decide to put a pair of my sisters leotards (tights) on and enjoy it?

    I also wore tights at that age. They were my own, and my mother made me wear them. She also wished I'd been born a girl.

    Since coming out to myself a little over two years ago that I am a crossdresser, this is a question that I have asked myself a million times. I honestly don't have a clue as to why I am the way that I am.

    I've analyzed my childhood and other events from my life looking for one thing that steer d me in this direction. No answers.

    I know that I was attract d to feminine things from a very early age tHiugh.

    For the past two years, I have fully embrac d that this is who I am. I've accepted it and have never been happier.

    I do feel that I am more than just a crossdresser. I've learned that there is a very feminine part of me that I never knew that existed and have allowed this to grow and thrive.

    Does that answer your question?

    I think that sometimes my X chromosome is bigger than the Y chromosome, otherwise it is all about the way female cloths feel, softer, satiny,and slinky, GOOD.

    When I learned I could incorporate this with sexual activity I was hooked.

    When I was younger I thought it was because I was damaged. Then as I grew up I was insistent that it was because when I was younger girls were nicer to me than boys and I wanted to be like them. Then when I hit about 18/19 I thought I was just a crossdresser. But now Im in my twenties I have realised I am trans and not just someone who likes to dress up.
