Is Crossdressing a Sexual Thing?

[Wildaboutheels]

" I am convinced that during my younger, high testosterone years, my crossdressing gave me some strong sexual excitement."

Bad, BAD, B A D CDer!!!!

Are you trying to give CDers a bad name? It almost sounds like you had an O or possibly a couple while wearing some item/s of women's clothes way back when dinosaurs were still roaming the earth. Say it ain't so!

FACT: Most all here at least "passed through" that stage, regardless of the age they started dressing. Very few will deny it and many of the ones that DO DENY it have "faulty memories". [as checking other posts from them will confirm] It's likely the Os promote/d "much" of the Guilt and Shame that is never in short supply here. So obviously many are happy to leave the Os behind them. But our Human Brains are simply not going to allow us to EVER forget that ASSOCIATION with clothing with Os.

I have no experience with "recreational drugs" of any sort so I could be wrong but my guess is that few things on the planet are as addictive as MALE Os. Male Os keep us on the planet. They better be addictive. It's no accident that 1] they cost nothing, 2] they are extremely easy for most men of "breeding age" and 3] It's primarily a man's VISION that makes both 1 and 2 possible.

FEmales are not visual like men are, as it goes against THEIR most basic programming. It also accounts for WHY there are so few FtM CDers. Easy enough to confirm. FEmales are also very UNlikely to think with their little heads simply BECAUSE of the way a man "presents" himself.

"Presents" himself... as in CLOTHING.

Of course... I could be missing something? I think most Humans agree that "most" women have their LBDs, minis, high heels and "display of cleavage" at their disposal to make "favorable impressions".

The equivalent for men would be...?????????????????????????

Actually "being successful" is the best tool for men [to most women] simply because "being successful" increases the chances he will be a "better father".

My dressing has not changed in 50 years and it seems to be the same for many others here. [that don't post very often/choose to be mostly lurkers] My guess is that they too, have never felt any shame or guilt because of their basic Male "programming". You can't fight Mother Nature and to deny it, makes little sense.

I have little doubt that "most" men who went on to transition [and were happy about it] are likely the ones who never got "excited" from putting on/wearing FEmale items.

I don't see a problem either way. There is no right or wrong way or reason to "dress" any way one wants to as long as it doesn't break any laws. And age has nothing to do with it, although what you described for yourself seems to be the "norm" here for the majority of the Forum Dinos.

I'd be willing to bet a years pay, that had Pavlov continued with his dogs for an extended number of years, some of the dog's who had lost most of their teeth would be quite "happy" with just drooling.
