I don't know how I missed this thread, as this is a central element in the discussions my wife and I are having about my cross dressing. I went into it in my introduction, but I had no idea whatsoever about cross dressing until this past September, at the age of 65. Retired in 2006, nothing... This past year, attitude and behavior was becoming unbearable, I was a bad actor. WHY? not a clue, BUT. In September when the female bikini panties showed up in my drawer, and I put them on, I have become a different person. I had been drifting toward the more metro male look, but no satisfaction there.
I have been cross dressing for just 4 months, with no previous experience since the bathroom encounter with a bra and towel on the head, making a female shadow, at age 8. SO, maybe it was there, but there was no conscious effort to repress the action, the desire just wasnt there
As I say, the wife and I go over and over this to puzzle out why, so late in life, this happened. It just happened. It is now me.
