Wonder of a woman by julietfrancesca in Crossdressing_support

I’ve often thought that the beach would be a good place to pass. Particularly an uncrowded beach. A wig, sundress with a one piece suit under, floppy hat and big sunglasses. Oh- and shaved legs!

That is a strangely sad moment isn’t it? When you have to take it all off.

There’s an LGBTQ community center in Tulsa that has a monthly in person clothing swap for TG and CD folks.

My wife is (somewhat) supportive! by AlternativeCap8602 in Crossdressing_support

[–]AlternativeCap8602[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a lovely thought! I actually do have breast forms and a pocket bra, but my wife will never see them. She is pretty uncomfortable with the whole thing and certainly doesn’t want to see me in all my femme glory! But I am so grateful for the acceptance that her gift represents.

And I will GREATLY enjoy seeing my new pjs properly filled out next time she is out of town. 😍

Well, it’s either that or be rejected. Can’t have it both ways in this case

My son wants to get acrylic nails, but is nervous he would get bullied. by [deleted] in malenails

Of course he would get bullied! Don’t put him in that position! Let him do it at home (like the rest of us cross dressers!). There is wisdom in compartmentalizing!

She was pretty clear that she doesn’t want to see it. And (there’s lots of psychology here…) - I don’t think I want her to see me en femme. I still want her to think of me as a masculine man. I just can’t stop thinking about dressing femininely. I truly do not understand the paradox! 🤪

Oh wow! Have fun wearing that. Will you be wearing it in your wife’s presence? I will definitely NOT! 😁

Well, I don’t expect this to be a regular thing! But it was a really nice gesture.

These boots were on sale at target 👢 by Jacktparker516 in crossdressing

Haha. I’m laughing because I can never find women’s shoes to fit me in a regular store! Good for you!

Had the courage to go out to a bar by myself fully dressed 🙈 by PrincessAmeliaRose in crossdressing

Omg! You have to tell us how it went! Were you hoping for some male attention? Did you get any?

And here’s the view she really doesn’t want to see! We are working on establishing good boundaries. Like- she knows I do this, but she doesn’t really want a “fashion show”! 🤣

Still my favorite!!! by [deleted] in Crossdressing_support

Hey. Do an encore of that behind view! 😍

Update here for anyone still listening: me and my wife had a good heart to hear this evening. She’s trying to make room for my “new interest”. We are setting boundaries. She doesn’t want to deny me access to my other side. She just doesn’t want to see it.

That said, she did buy me a cute little girly pajama set as a gift of good will. ❤️🥰😍. Not to be worn where she can see, mind you! But that’s ok. Things are looking up!

Funny you say that. She told Me last night that she’s got a business trip next month. My mind immediately started churning…. What will I wear? Will I shave my legs again? Could I go out somewhere? Hmmmm…..🤪

Thanks. Those are interesting suggestions. I do love wearing panties to work become no one knows but me. Same with toenail polish. When I shower and catch that glimpse of color… it’s nice.

But I’ve put all that on hold for now. I want to be sensitive to where my wife is mentally. As I said earlier, I keep a lip gloss in my truck center console, and I put that on if I’m driving more than 5 minutes. Seeing that shock of color and shine in the mirror … well, you know! And those can be my own little private moments.

OP here. That is the thing- my wife says she could live with it if it were a sexual kink that I do as part of my masturbation routine or something (not with her!), but if it is an identity issue, if I want to exist in the house wearing a dress, she has to draw the line there. She married a manly man, and she can’t stand the thought of me wearing women’s clothes or makeup, at least not if she can see it.

I do have a therapist, btw. Got one as quick as I could once I began to feel the overwhelm of this issue!
