When I get on this site I usually read all the replies to date before I reply. But no longer, I read some and then make my decision to get my one cent in. Jess I love(sorry not sexually) you. As I think you are trying to help some of the CDers here. I had fear of leaving the house too. So for over 40 years I didn't even realize I was afraid, cause I never dressed completely. Most of the time I only wore one Item. So I didn't realize that once you where one item more than twice you are a crossdresser. Think about this aren't you still a cd when you take off those whatevers. i.e. skirt, panties, makeup. Your dressed in drab but have on pantyhose or tights underneath. You are still a crossdresser same as completely in drab.

After 40 years of not going out dressed completely en femme when I stepped out I was shocked it was as if I had just started. I finally had my purse and was out dressed as a woman in public. If you fear anything then you need to get past it, there is no other way past that fear than head on. Like I had a fear of riding public transportation even at night but I have done it. I am moving past my fears and I am less fearful and more happy. I smile much more than I used too. If anyone asks me how can I do that I say I am not afraid. Cheryl T's signature helped me with this the most I love her too(sorry not sexually though). Her signature says Closets are for clothes. Not people and Natalie said "We do exist". I love them all they are all beautiful ladies. And everyone knows what I mean. Lorileah got me to come back as I wasn't going to once. Marleena is so right to the point also. Getting over fears, I'll write a book. What is fear of flying about? lol Anyway enough.
