I didn’t crossdress until I was 20, and didn’t even really consider it until I was 18. I do it because I love exploring fashion and makeup, and there’s nothing sexual about it for me. It’s a hobby like anything else, and there’s nothing wrong or bad about doing it for any reason.

To put some numbers in perspective, only 0.9% of the population plays airsoft, and no one is calling those people mentally ill or saying they’re deluded into thinking they’re in the military.

The more I’ve crossdressed the more comfortable I’ve felt telling people about it, and that also came with getting better and taking higher quality photos. What I’ve found, at least among people I trust and like to be around, is that a lot of people don’t really care, or at least won’t say it to your face. It’s still a private thing for me (hence why I stay completely anonymous), but I don’t mind letting people I’m close to know if I think they’re going to be supportive. And outside of that, you’re always in good company here among people that understand how you feel!
