A a guy, I'm pretty much "wash and wear". A quick shower in the morning along with a shave and I'm ready to go. As a woman, I take an hour to do my makeup, then worry all day if it still looks good. My hair has to be just right. I put all of my jewelry on. I have to be careful so I don't break a nail. I have to carry a purse around everywhere in case my makeup needs a little touchup. The heels become uncomfortable after a few hours. I have be careful so I don't get a run in my hose.

Now don't get me wrong. I love all that stuff, but not 100% of the time. After all, I am a crossdresser. But something about hanging out with the guys, drinking beer, watching sports and letting one rip whenever I need to has some appeal to me.

I guess I am fortunate enough to live both parts. I have an understanding how both sexes live their lives and I think that has made me a more well rounded and understanding person.

My personality doesn't change when I change clothes. I am still "me" no matter what I wear. I just have a little different perspective.
