Is this a hobby

[WMassGirl]

I NEED to dress. I used to smoke and I quit that but theres absolutely NO way you can quit dressing. You can purge but you"ll regret it later. The best thing you can do is try to integrate it into your life and enjoy it. Twenty five years ago I would seriously considered transitioning but its a little late in life now. My SO understands my needs and is very accomidating. She'll come home from work and find me fully dressed and won't bat an eyelash. I understand her needs as well as she understands mine and our 35 yr marriage carries on.

No hobby here. No choice either....this isn't something you wish for and can turn off by just saying no. Doing drugs is a choice, smoking is a choice, this is something iwas born with and am not really sure how to make myself feel comfortable without doing it. I think everyone on their journey through life finds their own way of dealing with it.

Hi everybody.
Here is a word that has been used in a number of posts and it is one that leaves me a little uncomfortable.
Do you regard dressing as a "Hobby"?
I for one do not.
A hobby is some thing you do in your spare time for fun, and yes while I do enjoy what I do it does not fit in the catagory of a hobby for me.
I consider dressing as part of my inner self which I have only a small amount of control over.
Any views on this please.

Crossdressing is not a hobby. It is a way of life, a way of letting yourself feel good. hobbies are not 24/7 ,dressing even in a small degree is

I wasn't born with crossdressing, however I know that I have been born with the natural human trait known as curiousity. It was my curiousity that led to me to try on my first pair of pantyhose. Then once experiencing most of my ponderings of pantyhose, it led me to wonder about other women attire. My curiousness then led to wondering how I'd look in a mirror in a full feminine appearance. Then it led to me wondering how it would be to feel the breeze of the outdoors. Which then led to wondering how it felt to experience some stuff in the appearance of the female gender.... and on and on
It was my own personal choice to act on my curiousity and experience some of the wonders of crossdressing. It's my choice not to act on other curious pondering of crossdressing.

In the end I think it just all depends on the person. There is no "right" answer.
