Are you normal?
"This is ME" I am not CRAZY, I'm just a GUY who likes dresses!
Since allot of men dress up in woman's clothing that makes it a manly thing to do!
Much more fun than fishing.
I do construction like house building and I love CD-ing, what's the difference?
What's normal for you may not be for the next person . And honestly who would want to be normal ? Whatever that may be lol
Judy, Normal is a relative term and therefore cannot be used as a bench mark. Therefore, I am more normal than some and less normal than others.
Please call me Jamie, I always_have crossdressed, I always will, "alwayshave".
Oh Judy, this thread is such a tease. Just the word normal is intrinsically funny. A fixed evaluation that has an infinite range of definition.
I know that having very female breasts is my normal zone. Warm, bouncy and delightful. Normal.
I've waited so long for this time. Makeup is so frustrating. Shaking hands and I look so old. This was a mistake.
My new maid's outfit is cute. Sure fits tight.
And then I step into the bedroom and in the mirror, I see a beautiful woman looking back at me.
Smile, Honey! You look fabulous!
Judy, Don’t worry, you’re normal, we’re all normal. It’s the guys who don’t cross dress that are sort of odd to me.
Crissy
SOME of us are and some of us are NOT------It depends upon WHY we cross-dress. Cross dressing is symptomatic of a wide range of environmental and psychological conditions, preferences and objectives--- no one "cause". We have US "normal" folks, and we have people like "Norman Bates" too.
Normal people aren't even normal!
"You're the only one to see the changes you take yourself through", Stevie Wonder
What even is normal? I'm always aspiring for self-improvement, and being helpful to others. I'm not a perfect person, but I try. I'm an artist. I write, I draw, I sing, and I love fashion. I certainly don't fit into the box society tries to put all of us in, and maybe you don't entirely either, but that is never a bad thing. And no one should ever make you feel like it is.
Normal no. I would classify normal as the majority. Are we special hell yes. Lol.
normal compared to what ?
who gets to decide what normal is ?
if its is the government then every one is abnormal !
Normal... Now there's a loaded term. Georgia illustrates the problem; everybody thinks that their gauge is the right one. Of course, each of those gauges are skewed by education, local culture and of course, politics and religion. What most people don't understand is that normal and average are not the same thing at all. Average is what most of us look like, act like, eat, drink, wear... Normal, on the other hand, is a spectrum, a measurable distribution of skin color, eye color, hair color, IQ's, tastes, and... behaviors. A certain percentage of a given population will be gifted (artstically, intellectually), or red heads, or ...transgender. Always. Yes, we are outliers, far from "average", but we are also unquestionably normal.
Well as others have said normal is in the eye of the beholder, but I can tell you this besides liking to dress like a woman, we seem to have a lot in common like careers...
So I would say you are as normal as I am. ;p

I consider myself a normal person working in a blue collar industrial environment, and living in general suburbia, and like all normal people, have a hobby. My hobby happens to be crossdressing, which, while maybe not typical, is interesting and enjoyable. exactly what a hobby should be.
It is perfectly possible to be normal without having to be ordinary.
When haters hate, I celebrate!
Nornalcy is a big broad tent and yes you fit inside it. The word normal does not work in human affairs as humankind just contains a huge variety.
I cannot remember the wise person who originally said it, but the quote was "You can be absolutely anything in life that you want to be, just don't be dull and boring".
Yes, quite normal.
I'm avionics, enjoy wood and metal working, painting, panel beating, parachuting, sowing and skiing, handcraft and hang gliding, cooking and rock climbing etc etc
I recently got dumped by a potential girlfriend who said I am not normal. But if you look at her bigoted, narrow minded world, you can easily see that she is the one who is not normal.
Normal is a relative term. If you take the average of the whole world, then yes, we are normal.
My favorite dress is a Dirndl.
Normal is conforming to a standard, regular, or usual, way within a society. The problem is that what is "normal" in one society is not necessarily "normal" in another society. So who's standard do you want to be compared to??? Certain forms of violence are getting normal in one part of the world, but not another. My normal is to love, and accept people. To be loved, and accepted regardless of my traits, quirks and CD'ing habits. We all need to put down our gavel, take off our robe, stop judging one another and start loving one another! You are normal, it's society that is a half a bubble off of plumb.
I like myself, regardless of the packaging that I may come in! It's what is on the inside of the package that counts!
Judy,
You are as normal as the rest of us crazy mixed up bunch that goes to make this forum the interesting place that it is.
A question, "Is the big hairy chested, testosterone charged and bearded control freak that makes his wife's life hard considered normal?"
I bet he thinks he is. :-)
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
Normal is 98.6 degrees for humans and sweat running down places you don't like in the summer.
Aircraft engineer, like to burn things on the stove and sew all my own clothes and I think I look better as girl than I ever did as I guy. But Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Honored to meet all you way most better than normal girls!
Normal can be boring - everyone is unique and should strive to be happy (whatever that means)
Is it 'normal' in the sense of 'the usual state of being'? I'd say no in most contexts.
Is it 'natural' in the sense of 'this is a standard variation of human behavior'? I'd say yes. People have been crossdressing for one reason or another for thousands of years.
I consider crossdressing, and the underlaying subtext of wrestling with gender as one aspect of the never ending quest for 'self'. For every ten crossdressers there are probably twenty different reasons for doing it, each reason a slightly different shade of the uniqueness that is the individual, and each expression of it a small part of the great compilation that is humanity. Viva la differences in humanity! What a boring world it would be otherwise.
Am I 'normal'? No, not in the 'clinical' sense of the world. Am I a 'natural' person who revels in my own path and how that relates to the rest of creation? Yes! And I am so grateful for it. All of it!
