Yes,  sorry I have this desire to inflict bad puns on the innocent

The statistics can not be accurate first of all,due to the high closet ratio.and among them the percentage that will admit it even anonomously is even smaller.
Post Merge: April 25, 2009, 11:32:15 pmI have been dressing in womans clothes my whole life(i am now 43 yrs old).I still don't know why i do it.I almost don't really want too know either

I beleive the percentage is wrong. Maybe 5% are those dress often. All of those who have tried on clothing of the opposite gender is much higher. Transvestites dress for sexual desire, fetish. Drag Queens like to perform. Some of us do it because it feels right. Some studies have found in some persons it increases the neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine which gives one a 'Feel Good' feeling and increases the ability to experience emotion.

Oh Nikki I'm so sorry for you. I does hurt but give her time.

Hmm, so can crossdressing "develop" into other states of mind or underlie a more significant need within a person?

Of course, then again, maybe not.  There was an old joke back in the DOS days of chat - "What's the difference between a CD and a TS?  About 10 years." and there was some truth in that.

I know this is an old topic, but as it has come to the front again and as i have just started my journey I would like to comment.

I think too much emphasis is placed on the physical person by society.  According to society in many countries, if you are born male or female there are certain and very specific expectations placed upon you.  At no time does anyone, except for the psychs, look at your own character and yet it is your very character that sets you apart from any one other person on this planet, not your gender.

Personally I think your own character, and by that I mean how you think and feel, should dictate how you dress.  I like to wear stockings and dresses and all things pretty, funnily enough my wife likes to wear shorts.

What everybody needs to realise is that: we are born, we live on this planet a very short time, then we die.  Why should it be such a big issue if I, or CindyJames, or Barbara wants to wear clothes that match our character, but not our outsides.

I know it is, but it shouldn't.................. Rebecca
