My partner and I have unconsciously come to a sort of "traditional gender role" switch where by I do most of the cooking and cleaning and serving the family while she tends to be more independent and interested in doing her own thing yet is expectant of me to serve. This is totally independent of my crossdressing because it is a 24-7 thing.

We joke frequently that I've become the wife but sometimes it doesn't feel too amusing and I find myself saying "You know, I'm still a man- I just like making sure my family is secure and happy". I tend to reaffirm that when I'm feeling emotionally insecure or am fearful that she no longer respects me.

Has anyone else experienced this and how did you deal with it?
