I was 5 and I can remember it like it was yesterday. How can I remember that 61 years ago? Because I got caught!
My mother's lingerie drawer was the magnet and as most women, she had her drawer organized to a "T" (no pun intended)At 5 years old of course I couldn't remember how things were laid out and when she opend her drawer the next time, well, she knew someone had been there. Of course, questions arose and my father asked me if I had been playing in mommie's things. The guilt showed all over me when I denied it.
Coming from a very Catholic upbringing I was severely repremanded and THAT's how I can remember it.
A year or so later I was caught again and by the was in 1st or second grade and I was then threatened that they would dress me up in my sister's dress and send me to school like that. At the time it scared me to death.
Little did I know that someday I would voluntarily go out with dresses on as I'm out in public at least once a week nowdays! Ha

well before school, 4 or 5 years old.Originally Posted by helenr
For me it was around age 11. I had a sister that was a year younger than me and I used to borrow some of her things. She had a little blue satin skirt, silk panties and a white satin top that I loved to wear with white tights and black mary jane shoes. I don't know what made me start dressing, but I haven't been able to stop. I'm now 36 years old.

I noted all your responses.
There were 119 (excluded 4 or 5 because i don't know how old ppl are in 9th or 5th grade in US).
The minimun "first CD memoir" age was 2 (!) and max was 53 (congratulations).
I put it on a graph. Green dotted line is average age of first CD encounter (9,76).
Any other comments? Maybe that ppl starting dressing at very young age are more prone to write about it on this board.

Grade school in the US usually starts at 6years old, so add a year for each grade and your pretty close. You might try a median age instead of a average for the graph.I noted all your responses.

I can remember dressing or wanting to dress as far back as I can recall. Probably around 4 or 5 years old.
I was about five or six when I first tried on my sister's powder blue leotards. I also remember trying my mom's pale green eyeshadow.
I think I started right around the age of 9. I would steal my older sisters clothing when they weren't around and would prance around the house. But it wasn't until college that my dressing truly evolved. I remember going to bars and clubs with all my guy friends, and I would admire all the attractive GG girls, everything from their outfits, shoes, makeup etc.; and I would tell myself that is how I want to look when I'm dressed (I still do). Now at 30, I think I've come a long way, but there is always room for improvement and looking forward to it!
I was about 7 years old and tried on a polka dot tank top dress (white with black dots). I also put on some lipstick and used a brown towel (as a wig) - lol
My first time would have been about 8yrs old.
I have cd since I was about 5 yrs. old! It started out wrapping a blanket around myself to look like a dress, and then would sneek panty hose from
my mom, did not get caught or found out.

I had my awakening (the call of nature and self discovery) at 13. The first times was surprise and elation. From the second time on Aubrey was there running the show. So at 13 I was wearing a bra under my shirt and jacket. The jacket was heavy enough to hide my calling and was the only times I would wear a bra and sometimes nylons. Love how my legs feel in them. Ah! The good old days!
I have been crossdressing since I was 9 years old (I am 42 now)
It all started with couple of dresses and wearing Mothers high heels, where it will end I dont know, lol
Hi Helen,i started when i was about 12 and i am cannot even remember what started it,i vagualey remember a freind and i trying on his mothers bra and panties on,hey maybe thats where it all started.it has been only over the past seven years though that i have bought female clothing such as shoes,dresses etc,prior to that it was just panties and pantyhose,the things that i could hide.
i was about 5 days old when it happend to me i came home from the hospital as a new born in a dress and my sisters keep it that was it well be 57 years in august
almost the same as lacey, but tried on mom's panties after the catalogues. but was little time for me to due until older, youngest of four. it was my brother that found out and told mom and their wives. i was around 22 at the time and was buying my own and they went looking in my room.
Just like the lyrics of the Green Day song "King for a Day/Princess in the Dawn"
"Started at the age of four.
my mother went to the grocery store...."
My earliest recollection was when I around 2. Coming out of the depression my family was fairly poor. My mom use to dress me in my sisters hand me downs. I remember wearing my sisters tights in the winter and her jackets and boots. I vaguly remember wearing a dress (LIKE THE CARTOON CHARACTOR SMITTY) and her little blouses till I was about 4 or 5.
By this time I guess finances were a little better because I did go to school wearing all boys stuff except for my winter jacket. I've always felt comfortable wearing girls clothes. I use to borrow my sisters clothes whenever I was home alone. When my sister had her friends over they would dress me and we'd play games like hop scotch and jacks.
I was about 12 when I first started going out publicly dressed en femme. I go for walks in the street fully dressed, panties bobbie sox, bra, blouse and skirt with a bandana around my head, (this was a style than) hoping that I would attract some boys. Not for sex just to see if I was accepted as a girl.
Now at 73 I wear male style womans clothing all the time. It is not a sexual desire as more like I would like to be female and would love to live as such.
Mums panties at 7 or 8yo can't for the life of me remember what made me do it, just that I have pretty much done it ever since, I don't think I will stop now
I was eleven when I first tried my Mom and sister's panties.
[SIZE="3"]Reading the replies so far it seems strange to me how many of you started with your mother's / sister's / aunt's etc. underwear. For me, my female relatives' underwear was never an attraction - it was always their dresses and blouses. But we're all different, of course.[/SIZE]
Eh, I guess it depends on your definition. I think I've felt an urge longer than I remember, mostly out of suppression or failure to recognize what was at play, but I remember when I was maybe 7 or so the first time I tried on my sister's high heels. Somehow, we were the same size then.
As to when I first really wanted to dress like a female, some time perhaps when I was 11 to 13... I just remember wanting to tie my shirt up into the faux bra like the girls did at the pool, and I KNEW I did it because I wanted to dress like them. I just wound up kinda stuffing that into a dark corner after my aunt made fun of me. I told her it was just because my bathing suit was wet and I didn't want to get my shirt wet.
Of course, if I had known what those feelings meant at the time, I would've been more forceful about doing what I wanted, and ignoring her jokes, but I felt stupid because I just thought it was something dumb that I wanted to do, not that it was anything deeper...
"Thoughts are the shadows of feelings, always darker, emptier, and simpler. I don't care if they're fake or real, I just thank them for showing up at all. I have black periods. Who does not? But they are part of me; they are not a part of illness, but a part of my being. What am I saying? I have the courage to have them. Four o' clock in the morning. This sucks." - Alkaline Trio - Warbrain (First line courtesy of Nietzsche)

I am now 62 and I do not ever remember not wearing female cloths. I remember wearing my mothers hose and shoes. One might say that I am hung up on girl cloths. LOL!!
