I started cross dressing when I was about 8. In adolescence is always resulted in a "sexual" thing but not as an adult. My desire to cross dress is innate, like, I believe, for all cross dressers. I think cross dressing is just a point on the sexuality continuum. I am straight, again, like most cross dressers, married and have children. No one would ever guess i was a cross dresser, never. I am quite "manly" in my daily life. I told my wife of 20+ years only last year. She is completely accepting. Cross dressing brings me a level of peace I do not have in my traditional male life. It relieves stress and I like the act of making myself pretty. The clothes, fabrics, colors, everything about women's clothes is quite different than the choices I have as a man.
If you have a spouse who is a cross dresser, feel free to ask questions. Thanks for reaching out.
