Thanks for starting this tread Doc, it is very interesting. I guess I have different emotional responses to different things, but it all starts with being fully dressed. I think Lux and others expressed most of this above - for me, if I can't get fully dressed with hair, makeup, nails done, etc. then I would just as soon not do it at all. So, I get one kind of emotional charge to just being dressed. On the rare occasions that I have tried on leather, latex, or other "racy" (not sure that is the right word) outfits and looks, then my emotions go up in a slightly different fashion or direction. Exploring different looks and approaches to my female presentation adds to the excitement of this part of me. Thanks again to everyone for sharing their thoughts.
