I love tall women.. if there's a woman walking into the room and I can look her in the eye without looking down then that is great.. and if a woman walks into the room and she is slightly taller than me and she is wearing heels then that is great.. totally fantastic.. by the way slightly off topic, I went to a graduation this past Sunday and there were actually women there wearing heels!! and some of them walked like women do or are supposed to but there were a great number who looked like heels were foreign to them.. like I could walk that well in heels so I'm not that worried about how I looked while out cross dressed last month.. I thought I might walk too much like a guy wearing heels but I think I fit quite well...Originally Posted by Di

This is what I mean by "every guy can look like a girl from the right angles".. this is one of the first pictures of me dressed up.. very vague look.. almost fem...
I am about 6'3". About 90-95% of the time I am the tallest person in the room, store, crowd, street, or where ever. Whenever I encounter someone who is taller than me, it feels strange and slightly intimidating. While I realize that there are many women who are over 6' tall, I do not encounter them on a regular basis even though I pay attention to the height of women because of my desire to crossdress. One point that has not been mentioned on this thread is the shortage (no pun intended) of older women who are on the tall side. Most of the taller women I do see are considerably younger than my 70 years. As a result of this, I am well aware that whenever I venture outside (which is not very often), I will be noticed as a result of my height combined with my age, as well as my build. It is virtually impossible for me to pass, blend in, or go unnoticed, regardless of my attitude, confidence demeanor or choice of clothing. As it is not my goal when crossdressing to draw attention to myself, I am severely limited as to the times, places and venues that I can crossdress publicly and not feel self-conscious.
For me, crossdressing is something to have fun with and while I can enjoy dressing at home and not going anywhere, this eliminates part of the reason for wanting to dress up which is to free myself from the restraints of my everyday male life and explore and experience some of the feelings and sensations of feminine expression. While there are frustrations to being tall which limit my freedom to come and go, I content myself with the realization that crossdressing for me is a pastime and not a necessity and like all of my pleasurable pursuits, I have to arrange for the appropriate times and places to indulge myself. Crossdressing events have provided a safe environment that allows me to mingle with the public under circumstances where they are expecting to encounter crossdressers, and thus are not shocked at the sight of what appears to be a woman in heels standing well over 6 1/2 feet tall, with a lumberjack's build.
As a man I enjoy being tall and am glad that this is how I turned out. However, for those of the shorter persuasions who lament about being unable to reach the top shelf, height has its obvious disadvantages. I returned recently from a cruise and lengthy train journey. I lost track of how many times I bumped my head on low clearances, which happened because it was necessary to keep my eyes on where my feet were landing, and what was available to steady myself as the trains and ship rocked about. Those handhold bars on buses, which short people complain about not being able to reach, have provided many a goose egg as the bus lurched around a corner. As some of you have said, the grass is always greener....

The freedom is limited only by your own mind.

Wow, I guess I'm a shorty at 5'11" in flats! I always felt slightly above average as a guy, but as a woman, I feel gargantuan, even if it isn't so.
I wear mostly flat sandals and flip flops, but lots women my age do also when dressing casual.
I do have a few pairs of 3.5 to 4 inch heels though, my Mom is always amazed at how well I walk in them!
i would jump for joy, because i'd have a higher salary - statistically speaking ;-)
Best,

For the time being anyway, I'm not employed.
One of the 6 million plus. oh well.... so much for that theory.
I am 6'3". The problem is it is difficult to find well fitting dresses so I tend to get skirts and a matching top.
Most of my family both male and female is at or over 6 feet tall. The woman do not shy away from tall high heels.
I'm guessing that the average ( hate that word ) CDer is taller than the average male, from responses.
If so I wonder why.
Are we escaping ( if just for a moment ) the responsibilities of our male lives, whereas shorter males can "hide" more easily " in the crowds "
???
Looking for more friends,
Surely, all you can say is that the average CDer is taller than the average female..

I totally agree with you, and that is why i included the following sentence in my first paragraph. "As it is not my goal when crossdressing to draw attention to myself, I am severely limited as to the times, places and venues that I can crossdress publicly and not feel self-conscious."
I have freedom to dress whenever I wish, but I cannot achieve my goal of not drawing attention to myself in most situations and this is why my freedom is limited to some extent. Yes, this is in my own mind, but so is the desire to crossdress with the results that I would like to achieve. It is all about enjoying ourselves, and we all strive to do that as best we can.
