I'll slip through the filter too, FWIW. My wife isn't DADT, but just doesn't want to see. I dress in panties and hose every day. Get fully dolled up (my wife's words) once or twice a month. Sometimes those are multiple day stints like this last weekend and, coming up, a week trip to DC.
HOOT! I'm glad I'm not the only old nerd around. Pre-digital I used to own and operate slide rules (had at least three, expensive wood one and a couple plastic ones).Originally Posted by Meghan4now
Putting the y (chromosome) in girly!
At the moment, about once a month, i just came out to the girlfriend. So i'm trying to make her comfortable by holding back a bit.
Before she knew, it was around once a week. But if I dress, I always go all out, full make-up, wig, underwear, clothes, heels...
Painted toenails 100%! Panties Every day and all night everynight (only 4-5 hours daytime)! Nightgown every night!! Wear female plain tee shirts mixed with male tee shirts hard to estimate and varies!! Fully dressed(minus wig and makeup-do not have yet) 1-4 times a week as the mood strikes and dependant on male tasks (closeted for now)! The more the better!!! Hugs Lana Mae
Panties every day toes done ,nite shirt or lingerie at nite and i get to dress 4 days a week
At minimum plunge bra, sheer top, black tights, 3" heels, lips, eyes and nails.
Get fondled every day!
Fully dolled up, 2 or 3 times a month. Panties at night several nights a week. Often too tired, worn out, depressed. Still have difficult issues with family after my dad died, Waiting to see if I am given any money from my dad's accounts. If i do, i hope to move where my cruel nazi brothers can't find me.
Every night lingerie. Starting in September once a week fully
I had to look that up. (Giggle)
Sigh...underdressing once or twice per week. The whole deal, maybe once per month. I wish it were more.🌺
I'm not sure why you have limited responses to those not in a DADT relationship. Do you think that DADT is too limiting to be able to dress frequently?
Not so. I'm out femme 4 or 5 days a week during 'business hours'. Wonderful arrangement that allows me to be femme during the day and a loving husband after hours. DADT although complex has some advantages.
We need a better definition of "dressing". To me, the definition is putting on women's clothes, boobs, wig, padded panties, etc. and trying one's best to look like a woman. Reading the responses above, this obviously isn't everyone's definition.
Since I'm retired, my dressing is probably different from most of the others posted here. I get up in the morning and dress as Krisi unless I'm going somewhere early in the morning. My wife is at the gym until noon or so. Sometimes I'll change back to Homer before she comes home, sometimes I will be Krisi all day long. It doesn't seem to bother her but I don't want to be Krisi in front of her all the time because I don't want her to think I've gone off the deep end.
I only go out as Krisi if she's out of town and I dress away from home so neighbors won't see a strange woman (or a tranny) leaving the house and driving away in our car.
To answer the question directly, I am normally fully dressed as Krisi four or more hours per day five or six hours per week.
I usually get an opportunity to dress in a bra & panties with a slip, stockings, and heels once or twice a week at most. Fully dressed is rare. Need to have the house to myself for that.
Usually once every two weeks. The most I've ever dressed at one time is about 5 hours. Generally I'm ok with this, but I star to get frustrated if I don't get my fortnightly fix.
Bra every day, all the time. I need the support.
Baby doll for bed every night, full makeup, suspender belt, stockings, heels etc. over the weekend.
Was married for 52 years. Revealed to bride who reacted with a shrug. Underdressed daily going to work and in the motel rooms on frequent business trips where I could add makeup for a few hours at night --- wife knew of drawers of lingerie but never dressed at home. Not DADT as never discussed. Then three years with widowed cousin who seemed to enjoy my inclinations as long as I never went out fully dressed - that was fun. After she came down with Alzheimer's and rest of family had passed I could become Julie 24/7 other than doctor appointments at VA.. Now the downside: Gave up my car two years ago at 89 to be prudent on Florida roads so depend on a lady and family to take Julie shopping. Not very convenient for this old lady accepted without a second glance at beauty shops, restaurants, departments stores and bathrooms. Second problem is that, though docs say I'm fine, the body is breaking down - or is it my mind telling me that? Then a dilemma. Plan to ship my remains back to Washington for a full air and ground military funeral. Wish it could be otherwise but will have to be in drab. So question is for me - and for many others - will I know in time to get ready since I'm all alone? Point, I guess, is even the best of times have a flip side.

Summer-wear time
Thank you all for most thoughtful responses. I didn't define dressing as I was looking for an inclusive range from just wearing a skirt/dress to the full treatment. Yes I did assume that DADT meant there would severe limitations on dressing time. I excluded fully time presenters and transitioning members as wanted to see what the range was for the more traditional definition of CD.
Some of the other threads seem to imply that any dressing less than 8 hrs a day is low frequency and was looking for more experiences.
Again, thank you so much for sharing. This whole experience has yet to feel "normal" so all your insights and experiences are priceless
All my dreams pass before my eyes with curiosity
I dress everyday except when at work and I underdress when there. Panties 24/7, nities to sleep in, girl shorts/skirts and tops around the house and to run errands. If I go out I usually wear a wig now. I go out on the weekend and dress all the way.
everyday for maybe 80% of the day, some days i don't though, i will be doing something and think "oh yeah i could be wearing comfortable clothes right now" but put it off for several hours. Sometimes i don't because it's very distracting and i need to focus on something. it's hot to wear a bra but i just can't get used to the sensation of it to want to wear it every day like i do panties. Bra's are also riskier in that the straps could be seen if you bend a certain way or if someone randomly gives you a hug....
i wear panties every day, it's gotten to the point that they are normalized in my mind, yet im still careful to not let them get exposed. It's nothing like the first time i wore them out, i felt like i was gonna get exposed at any moment.
Since my name was put out there, I will put my two cents back in. Like I have said in many of my replies, I am 75 yrs old and have dressed all my life, I got into the habit of watching women on how they dressed. So if the definition of dressing is put on every thing to the nines, what would you call the women of today when you see them in mens cloths. My wife has told me that less is better, so a lot of the time I wear flats, a skirt, tank tops with no bra but boobs stick on's, little make up, yes one of my wig have 3 favorite . I go every were, Sat is my day for the casino an I do look a lot better then most of the women there. If in my mind you want to look like a women, dress like them, they dress more like men, most of us girl will wear a skirt or a dress , very seldom do I wear slacks. Jo
Whenever I can, but at this time it's only been for short periods of times (an hour or so) except the occasional business trip.
Can I just say, Julie, that you, at 91, are an inspiration to me? Thank you!

My wife is a teacher. She is semi-retired. She works when she wants. There are days during the school year when I choose to be en femme five days a week. As an in-home cross dresser I can dress seven hours each day. I choose not to. But, when I do it is wig to high heels and everything in between; dress, slip, hosiery, bra, panty, heels and wig. There are many more times now that I know I can dress frequently that I forego dressing every available time.
This past fall my wife went out of state to visit a cousin for a week. i did do some days 24/7, but, I found I just felt more comfortable in my male cut off jeans and a well worn tee shirt with no socks and shoes.
Meghan made a good point about filtering the responses. How many hours would an in-home cross dresser dress if he was single? Or if there was an accepting wife?
My wife is a teacher as well, and still full time, I work at home, and have most mornings free. During the school year I try to dress a couple of times a month. Now that I am not happy unless I go all out I need a half day (at least 4 hours) to dress. I won't dress up if I don't have time to relax and take lots of photos, maybe go out and drive around.
Summer is tough, my wife and son are both home, so last week I actually bucked up $115 and got a decent little room at a local motel. That was fun!! It was nice to just have a different setting to take my photos in for a change. I was there about 6 hours. Went out and drove around, tried on different outfits, wigs, took hundreds pics, most of which I will delete.
So all in all I am trying to get two to three a month in when I can, but haven't been successful this year.

I'd probably say a couple times a month at most. Busy lifestyle keeps me on the go and doing things, but when I get that quiet evening with nothing going on and I'm in the right mood, I'll put something on!
I try to get a couple of hours a night during the week, A little on saturday and sunday morning, and a lot on weekend nights.
